Not really. WBR has said they were going to certify 6 singles with the RIAA in 1998. They did 4.

In an upcoming post, I will give figures for one uncertified single that had sold 500k in the 80s.

"Don't Cry For Me Argentina" certified now Gold in UK for 400,000 units
https://www.bpi.co.uk/award/1888-2003-1

Her 14th Gold Single in UK!

[music126]

Horrible streaming week. Still surprised by TPOG, decent weekly streaming and consistent YouTube views.

[fridakahlo]

Are they doing Jean-Baptiste Mondino music videos or was this a coincidence?
Will "Human Nature" be next?

It still feels strange how MCM POP (french music channel) plays the "Who's That Girl" video on HD almost every day since the Spring and the video is still not HD on Madonna Youtube channel...

The next video to get HD upgrade on 3 Dec will likely be Dear Jessie or Take A Bow.

Dear Jessie Single Release Date 04 Dec 1989
Take A Bow Single Release Date 06 Dec 1994

[thebigham]

Finishing the True Blue album. Tomorrow, the Who's That Girl Sdtk.

Open Your Heart SPS: 477,000

La Isla Bonita SPS: 913,000 - Eligible for Gold with the RIAA. Platinum in the next few months.

Spotify:

Open Your Heart 34,003,831

La Isla Bonita 184,667,044

YouTube:

Open Your Heart 43,374,24

La Isla Bonita 510,500,995

Digital Single Sales from 2008:

Open Your Heart 57,000

La Isla Bonita 109,000

I really thought LIB would already be Platinum.

OYH is one of three Madonna singles between 469k-499k with SPS.

The next video to get HD upgrade on 3 Dec will likely be Dear Jessie or Take A Bow.

Dear Jessie Single Release Date 04 Dec 1989
Take A Bow Single Release Date 06 Dec 1994

Are these going to be released to Spotify?
Have they paused these single releases until next year for the big 40?

[MadNuno]

This was about Youtube HD videos. I believe Spotify/Apple single releases are on pause.

[MDNHAY]

Thanks for the update

let’s get unconscious honey

[MadNuno]

Nice to see that next year there is a chance for "La Isla Bonita" get platinum and "Open Your Heart" get gold!

I'm really excited for next year Warner certifications!


Thank you so much for all the info!
So many albums and singles already ready to be certified and so many close to get to the next level!

[MDNHAY]

Why are her 80s hits so low in certs? We’re single sales already dead then?

[thebigham]

^Yes. In 1985, Gold was 1 million copies. Platinum was 2 million copies.

The RIAA lowered the certification levels in 1989. Gold went to 500k. Platinum went to 1 million.

WBR should have re-certifed her pre-1989 singles in 1989, but they didn't. They certified three '80s singles in 1998, 9 years later!

Michael Jackson, Billy Joel and Whitney Houston have re-certified their '80s singles over the past few years.

Papa dont preach, true blue certification gold for 1 million? I dont know..

[thebigham]

^No. PDP, Borderline and TB should have been certified Gold for 500k in 1989, but WBR waited until 1998 to do it. Those singles were not on store shelves in the 1990s.

They also should have certified LAV and CFY Platinum in 1989. Instead we have a confusing mess.

[britneyliam]

It’s easy for a chart topper single to sell over 0.5 million units before 1989，So the Gold level was 1 million before 1989. WBR was
