Elton John :: Charts & Sales History

[Fidelio1985]

I think it could be right to certificate 2xPlatinum the Rocket Man compilation in UK; and Silver too for Your song single.
There's no way to ask it to BPI?

161 RE Elton John - Rocket Man: The Definitive Hits

[Fidelio1985]

Used as the bed for a John Lewis Home Insurance TV ad, Elton John's 1971 album track Tiny Dancer breaks into the Top 75, advancing 101-70 (6,240 sales) - although this is its first ever Top 75 appearance in its original version, it did provide the inspiration and sample for Tiny Dancer (Hold Me Closer), a number three 2009 hit for Ironik feat. Chipmunk & Elton John. Despite not being a single, Tiny Dancer has become one of Elton John’s most popular songs, as evidence by the fact it is his third biggest selling download since his catalogue went digital in March 2007, with sales of 120,884 copies, trailing only Your Song (192,090) and Rocket Man - which it should pass next week - (124,542).

So, 6 months ago the original version of Your song was near 200.000 digital sales; how many right now?
Can't we hope a SILVER BPI certification yet?
I think here we are...

How many UK sales estimated for ROCKET MAN - DEFINITIVE HITS by its Platinum certification (2010)?
I mean, this GH re-entered the charts many times over past 6 years...

Hello, is there any chance to have a few (3/4) new BPI certifications of his classics during this era?
I mean, ROCKET MAN compilation runnin' so well in UK charts these days; and what about new certification after GYBR anniversary edition?

Any news about that?

Its a matter of time
