Sales and certifications [ edit ]
† The album has sold 9,167,000 copies since Nielsen SoundScan started tracking album sales in 1991.[ 201] The previous year the album received a 11× Platinum certification from the RIAA. Ignoring the possibility that its shipments exceeded sales in 1991, total American sales likely pass the 20 million mark.
Music certifications [ edit ]
Album sales and certifications compiled or found by me (Estimated worldwide sales)[ edit ]
Best-selling and highest-certified pre-digital era singles (compiled or found by me) [ edit ]
Singles in whose table of contents entry the word "certifications" is in bold owe nearly all their sales to certifications alone.
It is debatable whether this song should be considered part of the digital era or not.
The fact remains, however, that like "Don't Stop Believin'", "Eye of the Tiger", "Bohemian Rhapsody", and the three Thriller singles listed, "Hips Don't Lie" owes a significant part of its sales to digital downloads and mastertones.
