Which droplets? I'll work it out for you

[lcylcy]

Didn’t know Rhythm Nation was THAT huge

[byzantium]

I'm surprised 1989 is so high.  Not only did it have massive singles but it also sold 6-7 million physical copies.  

Also, Adele's 21 is probably up there. 

[biblicalmonster]

The Fame Monster 

 

I'm surprised there are no Britney albums there.

probably: It Ain't Me, Bad Liar, Fetish, Wolves, Back to You

[Kill Me]

1989 being top 5 on H100 list without rereleases despite selling like 10M pure album copies.

BBH100 and BB200 success magnet.

The album had 4 number 1s and 7 top 5 singles off its original release.  I think that is still a record I think

[BlackoutZone]

I wonder where FN will end up, nice list

 

Also Adele's 21 has like 28k
