the "greatest hits" wins 13 places this week! it's 22 in the charts after 22 weeks?
I think the album is very likely to sell about 10 million copies worldwide in a year and will probably be the biggest Rock selling album of 2004. It has already sold about 6/7 million copies worldwide for 5 months...AND COUNTING! that's fantastic.

I have a question? If GH reaches 10 million world wide will it get a Diamond award?

[nesquick]

I don't know. 10 million is fucking amazing in a year regarding the Guns n' Roses situation. I mean, there is no videoclips, no tour, and the band isn't the same at all right now. 10 million copies expected...just based on the past!
In my opinion, with videoclips on MTV, a tour, a new album with new material, singles on radiostations etc...a new album like "chinese democracy" could sell amazingly. Even if it is not the same band, the name "Guns n' Roses" is still there. And that's what is important. The name will help to sell records. I want "chinese democracy" to be a classic and one of the biggest selling album of all time.

I don't think so. Only if GNR reaches that figure in the US ( or I guess, in any particular country) will get the diamond award. GNR won't sell 10 million copies in a country other than the US though. Not even the UK.
