Please
note:
- First week sales/shipments are in
grey brackets.
- Most of the sales figures - at
least those marked by an asterix (*)
- are the
amounts shipped to retailers and not necessarily sold to
customers.
- Digital streaming is included in the
sales figures for Blur's
Midlife: A Beginner's Guide To Blur
and Gorillaz' The
Singles Collection 2001-2011 and
Humanz.
-
If
you have more or updated sales figures, then please
contact me.
Sources:
-
Blur album sales have been mostly taken
from the UKMIX forum topic
Blur
- Charts & Sales History. Please note that these figures are
mainly from the mid-2000s and have increased since
then.
-
The first week worldwide sales for Plastic Beach,
The Fall,
Humanz, GBQ and Everyday Robots are from
United World Chart. The
initial sales figure for The Sky Is
Too High is taken from Blurb #12.
-
The
worldwide
sales estimate for GBQ is from
World Wide Albums.
-
The sales estimates for The Magic Whip, Everyday Robots and some other albums have been
calculated by me, Veikko, using various sources such as
United World Chart.
- Thanks
to
Gorillaz-Unofficial and
Abigail Sykes of Defining Blur for some of the figures.
