thebigham[/U];n10811835]Surprise!

If I Could Turn Back Time SPS: 1,380,000 - certified Gold. Eligible for Platinum with the RIAA. (Maybe 2xP?)

I Got You Babe SPS: 1,190,000 - not certified. Eligible for Platinum with the RIAA.

Wow, thank you!!!

‘Turn Back Time’ sold in the range of 800k physical singles so it sure is eligible for 2xPlatinum!

‘I Got You Babe’ has reportedly sold a few million in the US during the 60s so it very well could be eligible for 3xPlatinum!

That's amazing, thank you! These are great sales, much higher than I thought! It would be great to see the Burlesque and Mamma Mia songs she did as well!

[thebigham]

^Thanks. Stupid Wikipedia did not have the Gold cert. listed.

Thank you so much! I Got You Babe was certified Gold (which at the time meant 1 million units) in September of 1965: https://www.riaa.com/gold-platinum/?...search_section So also eligible for 2x Platinum!

It's great to see her with multiple eligible multi-platinum singles. I'm guessing Dark Lady, Half-Breed, and Gypsies are all close as well since they're certified Gold (1M at the time) too.

Independent's the 16 best and worst pop stars turned actors

The Best: Cher

Cher is the ultimate pop star turned actor, incapable of not delivering in spades. Moonstruck got her an Oscar — playing a drifting widow finding unexpected new love — but she’s similarly brilliant as a flamboyant single mother in 1990’s Mermaids, as a nuclear power plant worker in Silkwood, and as one of the Witches of Eastwick. It’s a travesty she didn’t make more movies in the wake of her Academy Award.

Do labels usually combine older physical sales with downloads/streaming, so they could certify it as Gold? If so they could do the same with other songs like I Found Someone, Turn Back Time etc.

They combine them in the UK, so I guess they could unless there's a specific rule or something. Too bad that more countries don't have the automatic certification system like BPI does.

[StephenN17]

Yup, it's definitely eligible for Gold by the RIAA, would be so awesome if Warner would certify it.

^Thanks for that, it will probably be over 500,000 with physical sales.

Can you please explain what the 1.937 million sales are, is it downloads and streaming? As LostAvenger said it sold 1.8 million physical sales up to 2000.

Thank you so much! Believe has done 1.8M physical sales according to Billboard: https://books.google.com/books?id=1A...the%22&f=false So it's already at 3.7M consumption units. Should hopefully reach 4 million in a couple of years.
