We have nothing to fear honey I should’ve expected that any conversation with the Navy about pure sales would quickly devolve into fraudulent record sales. I know you’re slow, since your fave has been out of it for so long, but pure album sales sales and pure single sales are not counted as equivalent by any legitimate body in the music industry besides labels trying to gas up numbers.
