Closer has sold about 135k so far in 2017. BB had it at 2.268 M for 2016, which puts it at around 2.403 M. I'm not sure how many streams it's received this year though. Closer should close in on 2.5 M by the Grammys, and will get a boost after it. Closer also has the IHeart Music Awards (late March) and BBMAs (late May) for further future boosts. I think Closer will finish in sales at just over 3 M. Maybe its streaming can get it up to 7XP at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVY Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Even with streaming being added, those songs' numbers don't look impressive. The only exception is Closer since it's the newest song on the list and still got to be at #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
