[stevyy]

 

Apparently, it re-enters the US albums charts this week at #20, its 64th week on the chart.

In 2003 the album obtained a 5th platinum certification in the country, for shipments exceeding 5 million units.

 

The album features Mariah's number 1 singles in the US up until 1998 and comes with 5 new recordings:

 

Sweetheart (ft. JD)

When you Believe (with Whitney Houston)

Whenever You Call (ft. Bryan McKnight)

I Still Believe

Do you Know where you're going to

 

The album has sold 16 million copies to date and became the biggest selling album by a non-Asian artist in Japan with sales exceeding 3,7 million copies sold.

Real question is what about Mariah isn't iconic?

[Totami Legend]

The cover is 

[Matthew]

Why is there an apostrophe in the album title? Shouldn’t it be just “#1s”?

[Saddy]

Yes 

[dirrtydiana]

Yes this is one of those things I used to find in almost every house I visited.

 

i can only think of a few things like under that category: thriller, baby/oops, the bodyguard and titanic STs, Pokémon, Harry Potter, n64

if an album charting top 20 all these years later then how this even a question sis?
