getinthezone Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 its so funny how most of the songs are from 2008-2012 lose yourself is truly the most impressive, singles back then barely sold anything
jdanton2 Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Uptown Funk at #16 is the most recent release on the list from November 2014. by then digital numbers had peaked .

Tik Tok’s certs in the USA include SPS too exactly, and if you take streams away from the 12x platinum cert you're left with 7M pure sales, which is the true number as confirmed by Billboard + TikTok was much more global, it finished at #1 on the 2010 IFPI singles chart with 12.8M while Firework didn't even make the 2011 list when the #10 song was 6.5M
