Thank you so much for both. Maybe Crazy For You can still go 1-3x Platinum one day and Into The Groove Platinum in a couple of years.
The potential of Madonna having multiple Multi-Platinum eligible singles is tantalizing!

Let's look at the two singles that "interrupted" the promotion of the Like A Virgin album in the spring of 1985.
Crazy For You is certified Gold for sales of 1 million copies under the old certification rules.
SPS: 1,055,000 - Eligible for Platinum with the RIAA - This is the way RIAA does this now. It's not eligible for 2xP.
Into the Groove was never issued as a single. It was on the flip side of the Angel 12-inch single which is certified Gold for 1 million copies. Back then, 12-inch singles counted double for RIAA certs. 500,000 12-inch singles equaled 1 million.
SPS: 926,000 - Eligible for Gold with the RIAA
Spotify:
Into the Groove 75,127,395
Crazy for You 71,126,477
YouTube:
Into The Groove 49,352,956
Crazy For You 45,551,418
Obviously digital singles sales have helped both of these songs get over the 925,000 mark with SPS

Nice to see Frozen now #8 on her Spotify Top 10. Didn't think that would happen since it seemed that streams for Frozen had slowed down. Though, I'm still not clear how the top 10 list is compiled? Lol

The only 2 possibilities for uncertified physical singles are MG and WTG. And maybe LTT.

Understand. My biggest confusion is when the single wasn't certified. so I keep trying to add up the estimated sales from the 80s + digital + streaming to try to find the total data. But thanks for the info. Ideally, the RIAA would put everything together and update the certification, but..

I know the new RIAA way of certifying 70/80/90s singles is confusing.
How Will I Know by Whitney Houston was certified Gold as a physical single in 1991. 500k physical singles.
500k SPS was used to get a Platinum digital single certification in August 2021.
That is the new way. 500k physical and 500k SPS to get Platinum.
Mariah Carey's Fantasy was certified 2xP as a physical single in November 1995.
1,000,000 SPS was used in October 2019 to get a 3xP digital single certification.
2,000,000 physical plus 1,000,000 digital to get 3xP.
Understand?

SPS is 1,572,000! - Eligible for Gold/Platinum with the RIAA
Angel does not have a music video so that will hurt its streaming.
SPS is 118,000
