IUSA remember me I don't think so by kelis.

Wow I really have no clue how you can see any similarity!

Alex Martin · December 31, 2008, 01:03:53 PM

You disagree with me Sabine?

agree, "I Don't Think So" is very similar to IUSA.

The guitars at the beginning sound similar to U and UR Hand/Boring.

CIRCUS GOES PLATINUM

You know how we said 2009 was going to be the year of Britney? Well, it looks like it is already working out that way for our girl.

According to RollingStone.com, Circus has gone PLATINUM in the United States!!! That means over ONE MILLION albums sold!! Circus already got the big bling in Australia, but it's awesome to see her do it in her home country.

Congrats, Brit! We knew you could do it, and we are so proud!

congratulations QUEEN!!!

Congratulations Britney! 1 million sales is fantastic.

by the way, Platinum in Australia is only 70,000 units

Alex Martin · January 02, 2009, 11:32:12 PM

Only one million? ? ?

Less than last kelly clarkson's album? ? ?

Nope. My December only sold 700k in it's entire run. Circus has sold about 1.2 million in just a month.

Nice try.

Reaching 1 million in the US was really expected, since it was released in the end of the year, that's really good for Britney, now let's hope she keeps selling.

I have different info on kelly's sold.....over than 1 million copyes.....in usa.

Rebecca · January 03, 2009, 11:19:42 PM

1 million is great for Britney.

Per Wikipedia, Blackout has sold 926,000 in USA
so, at least it's doing better than that. I really can't see Circus selling more than 2 million albums in USA, it doesn't have enough hits on it. I suppose people just buy individual songs on itunes now.

Just searched at www.riaa.com and My December is certified Platinum in USA

http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?table=SEARCH_RESULTS

my search result link didn't work.

Over a million copies of My December were SHIPPED, not sold. That's why it's platinum.

Rebecca · January 03, 2009, 11:55:46 PM

Yes, you are right, it is based on Shipments. RIAA say their certification is based on shipments less returns, so do you really think there is 300,000 copies of My December sitting in record stores in USA? why wouldn't they have returned them already?

anyway, so where do we find actual sales figures for albums?
