Kyle-x Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Based on certifications only (including stuff released before 1989 but certified in later years): American Life 200,000 GHV2 200,000 Music 200,000 Ray of Light 400,000 Evita 100,000 Something to Remember 200,000 Bedtime Stories 200,000 Erotica 400,000 The Immaculate Collection 800,000 I'm Breathless 200,000 Like a Prayer 400,000 True Blue 100,000 (~700k on Oricon) Like a Virgin 100,000 (~800k on Oricon) = 3.5 million based on certifications alone. Not sure why this source cites RIAJ certifications as their means of calculating this considering they have numbers like 1,060,000 and 1,630,000 when all of the RIAJ certs are like 100,000; 250,000; 500,000; 750,000; 1,000,000 so there would be no way to get a number like 30,000 when adding those together.

Mediabase Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 This list is ridiculous! Madonna is in the Top5 even without all her huge 80s albums. She'd be in the Top2 if you count all of them. Who made this list and why there is no link or source provided? Fake news. You can tell how fake the list is by the fact that it says "Micahel" Jackson.

Those albums sales are not tracked by Oricon. In the 1990s, in some years, imported copies made up 1/3 of overall albums sales. Why did the Japanese import music CDs?
