SeriousEffect.;3344600 said:I literally cannot stomach the solo albums Michael had with Motown.
For this celebration, I have decided to post the original press release from 2003. Enjoy!
To date, Michael has sold over 12 million albums in the UK and 180 million worldwide. I've Had 78 UK 8 UK hit singles and No.1.s (Including The Jackson Five hit).
Well, now it has to be at least 17 mill. in the UK and 250 mill. worldwide...
Halloooo :wild:
Whats sales number for contemporary artists... like megagigaultrasuperstars Bieber, Gaga, Boyle, ...???
In fact, imo, Michael is the only atrist in history whose all major albums have been sold ... lets say, 10+ million copies.
(although his solo albums of the 70s are amazing, but with total lack of interest and a promotion agenda, and I have always been wondering why people/fans dont buy these albums, especially after June 2009, or why rec. company - Motown/Warner have not promoted yet released reeditions.)
