promise to try Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 COADF 4,2-4,4 M todate nearly the same as Like a prayer!
sniper Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 nearly the same as Like a prayer! 4,6 M for Like a Prayer album - only IFPI countries (some european countries not incl fro IFPI awards) and there is no info from Belgium, Poland, Denmark, Norway and Greece for Like a Prayer and other albums((( I think totals for Like a Prayer - about 5 M - around Music's sales and I guess: 8xP: The Immaculate Collection 7xP: True Blue, Ray of Light 5xP: Music, Like a Virgin, Like a Prayer 4xP: Confessions on a Dance Floor 3xP: Something to Remember 2xP: Who's That Girl, I'm Breathless, Erotica, Bedtime Stories, Evita, GHV2 1xP (near 2xP ~ 1,9M): First Album, You Can Dance, American Life Gold: R&R+IGTTYAS total: 60xP (62-64 M)
lemi Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Madonna * Album Sales in Europe until IFPI era totals - only IFPI countries: UK. Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium, Finland, Poland, Sweden, Austria, Denmark, Norway, Ireland, Greece, Hungary.

sniper Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 What is the source behind those numbers? just estimations - totals for 10-15 european countries according to sales and certifications (~90-95% of the european market)
doctorjosh Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 WBR should get off their lazy asses and certify COADF for 4xP in the UK already!!!
lemi Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 there are currently no plans. It only goes back to 1994. I guess verifying the sales numers all the way back in time would be a hassle now.
Guest Beautiful Stranger Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 WBR should get off their lazy asses and certify COADF for 4xP in the UK already!!! And 4x Platinum in Canada (Platinum = 100,000)... It's hard sales have already hit 400,000 there... Depending on how big Jump is, COADF will be eligible for 5x Platinum in Canada and the UK sooner than later...
mtzlplk Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 5x Platinum in UK sooner than later... ? it's barely reached 1.2M in hard sales in UK... it has to ship 1.5M to be eligible for 5x platinum... that's 300k copies far...
Guest Beautiful Stranger Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 it's barely reached 1.2M in hard sales in UK... it has to ship 1.5M to be eligible for 5x platinum... that's 300k copies far... YES. So WHEN it will get that 5x cert DEPENDS on how BIG Jump is there
Guest koala Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 it's barely reached 1.2M in hard sales in UK... it has to ship 1.5M to be eligible for 5x platinum... that's 300k copies far... Not 300k. When soundscan reaches 1.3-1.4M, shipment would be 1.5M. Again, the tour, new single and new commercial generated less than 100k sales for the album. I'm disappointed......
Nightshade Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Depends on "Jump" how fast. I think she has a chance, as I can see this album a steady catalog seller. Agreed. If "Jump" can become a sizable hit in Europe this fall (and with a good video from Jonas it very well could), the holiday sales rush could bring this baby to 5 million come the January/February 2007 certifications. Add that to the possible 2x platinum U.S. certification which should come in the near future (hopefully), and we got 7 million already - which matches Mariah's comeback exactly (6 million US + 1 million Europe). Where is the media parade for Madonna's "remarkable comeback"?
Guest Glamorama Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Where is the media parade for Madonna's "remarkable comeback"? Well in fairness although AL was a flop it was nowhere as floppish as Shitter or Harmbracelet so the increase in sales was not as dramatic as MuMu's.
mtzlplk Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Not 300k. When soundscan reaches 1.3-1.4M, shipment would be 1.5M. pardon me, there's Soundscan in UK?
Guest Beautiful Stranger Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 pardon me, there's Soundscan in UK? No. He means "hard sales."
Guest Beautiful Stranger Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 WHO ARE THE TOP SELLING ARTIST IN EUROPE IF ANYBODY KNOW? Celine and Madonna both have the IFPI award for album sales of 50 million across Euope. Celine has only sold a couple million more albums in Europe at the most since her award, but Madonna has hit 60 million at this point. Madge got her award in early 2001, before new platinum certs for ROL and Music, GHV2's 2x Platinum cert, AL's Platinum cert, and COADF's 4x Platinum cert. That's + 9 million in certs since the award, not countng the fact that AL is actually closer to 2 million or the sales of IGTTYAS or even R&R. So she is at 60 million in Europe, more than Celine. I think only The Beatles and possibly MJ have sold more than Madonna across Europe.
doctorjosh Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 I would just love to see COADF reach 5xP in Europe eventually, which will match "Music".
Guest boytoyville Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 I would just love to see COADF reach 5xP in Europe eventually, which will match "Music". That would be nice but I think we are going to have to wait awhile.
SOON Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 BBC UK acts dominate album sales list British acts have so far dominated the European album market in 2006, according to industry figures. Artists such as The Kooks, Sugababes and Katie Melua have scooped 19 of the year's 36 IFPI Platinum Awards for selling one million copies or more. The top performer was Robbie Williams who took three awards, including one for his latest album, Rudebox, which sold two million copies in one week. The US had 12 acts on the list, including UK-signed Scissor Sisters. The British Phonographic Institute (BPI) said the results underlined the current boom in new British music. Six of the 19 UK Platinum Award winners are 2006 releases. BPI Chairman Peter Jamieson said: "These latest figures confirm that we are going through a golden age for new British music, even by our own high standards. "The success UK music is enjoying today bodes well for future years because, as ever in music, it's the hits of today which pay for the hits of tomorrow." He also said the UK's haul of Platinum Awards for 2006 is likely to go even higher when releases by Arctic Monkeys, Snow Patrol, Corinne Bailey Rae, Keane and Razorlight are finally calculated. A Platinum Award is given for any album which exceeds one million sales, or a multiple thereof, within the given period. Euro Top Sellers 1. Robbie Williams - Greatest Hits - 5m 2. James Blunt - Back to Bedlam - 5m 3. Robbie Williams - Intensive Care - 5m 4. Coldplay - X&Y - 4m 5. Madonna - Confessions on a Dancefloor - 4m

Guest sfit Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 well not that I know the figures in all european countries but you cannot simply count more countries for COAD and these bring it to a higher figure than the IC - or do you know more info about the other albums too and didn't bother to post them simply
Guest OREN20 Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Israel 55.000 IT HASN'T SOLD 55K IN ISRAEL! THE CORRECT FIGURE IS 20,000 (GOLD)... I KNOW CAUSE I'M AN ISRAELI...
sniper Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 It was Gold in 2005 in Israel you cannot simply count more countries for COAD and these bring it to a higher figure than the IC in these countries IC sales are so low ((( He hasn't any certifications there (Finland, Poland,....)
Guest sfit Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I didn't know that I thought he would be huge everywhere all over europe not only in western europe
promise to try Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I didn't know that I thought he would be huge everywhere all over europe not only in western europe he´s big everywhere, except the US
Guest odo Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 COADF (4xP) sales are higher in Europe than Robbie's album (5xP) COADF CZ 5.000 CZ = Czech Republic? Because COADF sales are 80.000.
sniper Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 any source of this ? Do you really think COADF 8xPlatinum in Czech Republic ?
Mightycomfort Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 when do you think COADF will be 5 x platinum in Europe? Maybe after Decembers sales figures?
Guest FuckBuddy Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 a fifth cerification is unlikely to happen so soon.
