Hi everyone, this is the first thread I'm posting in this forum. I've always wanted to know the sales figures for every album and single the band has released so far, incluidng the new album, in the UK and, if possible, abroad. Do any of you know them? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Jim for posting the link. So, this are the figures I could find in the Buzzjack and Popjustice forums: Singles: Total: 5,439 ,000 (just in the 80s) It Must Be Love: 475,000 Baggy Trousers: 641,000 I searched for, but I couldn't find, a list of the 300 best selling singles of the 80s in which the band with, at least, 2 other songs (My Girl & Embarrassment, I think) Albums: The Wiki article says that both OSB and Absoluetly reached Platinum status, so my question is, how many copies did you have to sell back then to reach that certifcation? And how many to reach Gold and Silver? And how many for TLONF to be certified Gold in 2009? Compilation Albums: Complete Madness sold 1,133,000 just in the 80s. Divine Madness sold more or less the same, I think. If any of you have more information on this topic please share it with us. It will be much appreciated. |

I just found these figures in a lst of the 300 best selling singles of the 80s.
My Girl: 350,000
House Of Fun: 390,000
Our House and Embarrassment are also in the list but there aren't any figures for them.
