La classifica dei singoli più venduti di sempre in Inghilterra: primo Elton John, entrano Adele, Rihanna e Pharrell

Tre nuove entrate recenti nella specialissima classifica compilata dalla Official Charts Company inglese.

Parliamo di roba seria, parliamo di singoli da milioni di copie: la Official Charts Company, l’azienda inglese che si occupa di compilare le classifiche UK con i dati di vendita musicali nel Regno Unito, ha dovuto aggiornare la lunghissima lista dei singoli più venduti di sempre in Inghilterra.

Mentre le prime posizioni, come è logico, sembrano inamovibili, è a fondo classifica che si consumano le tre nuove entrate recenti che hanno superato il milione di copie vendute: Pharrell Williams con Happy ha raggiunto il traguardo un paio di settimane fa, mentre in questi giorni il nuovo conteggio ha premiato Rolling In The Deep di Adele (del 2011) e Diamonds di Rihanna (del 2012), entrate ufficialmente a far parte di una classifica che potremmo definire “dei milionari (di copie)”. Adele era comunque già dentro con Someone Like You e Rihanna con Only Girl In the World e due collaborazioni, ma questo ulteriore ingresso dimostra come, alla lunga, certi brani restino di più rispetto ad altri.

Tra le altre canzoni recenti presenti in questa speciale classifica ci sono anche i Fun feat Janelle Monae con We Are Young, uscita nel 2011, Price Tag di Jessie J dello stesso anno, Gangnam Style di PSY del 2012, oltre a naturalmente Get Lucky dei Daft Punk (in cinquantunesima posizione), vero tormentone del 2013.
