Adelephant 25 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Overall what though? Album sales? Singles sales? Album and single sales, because everybody in this list number should be higher than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suicide Blonde Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Elvis worldwide album sales are not easy to know but he’s number 3 in the US with 146,5 milllion albums units sold. My guess is that he would be second to The Beatles in worldwide sales The mathematical expected sales value of these 101 packages is 139,5 million Presley has a further 7,5 million sales of EPs certified that fall under the albums all-time list of the RIAA, bringing his units tally to 146,5 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevyy Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) 54 minutes ago, Liberdade mi amor said: That’s neither a logical approach nor a mathematical one. 990M of a 20$ album much huger than a 1.3 billion peak of 1,99$ singles. So the albums’ peak is like five times the singles’ peak. Not that you can compare them, but if you could the album peak is ginormous. First of all, you cannot compare revenue. Second of all, my point was indeed off. The real point is: how the average singles sales in the 1980s was at around 550 million per year and 400 million in 1990s, but over 2 billion between 2004-2014. The digital revolution increased singles sales by 400%. So singles sales must be massively re-adjusted. Digital singles sales are still bigger on a yearly basis today than during any point in the 1990s. Edited July 12, 2018 by stevyy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reza Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Britney being the highest pop girl from the 2000s. She really is a legend Selena Gomez being on this list. A music icon indeed Edited July 12, 2018 by Reza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The7thStranger Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) This list is serving taste. I see Madonna, Janet, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Bruce Springsteen, Spice Girls, Simon & Garfunkel... That being said, it's not accurate. Mylène Farmer has sold over 30 million albums and she's not on the list.

If anything, older acts are at a disadvantage when viewing these stats because people actually had to leave the house to support them rather than just pushing a button on their phone. if this were true, album sales would have increased instead of declining year by year since 2003.

She is at 76,380,000 in pure album sales, doubt she will ever break 100m, or anyone else for that matter, except maybe Enya who is really close.
