Looking at this list more closely, they only really underestimated the sales for "Diamonds & Pearls" which is at 2.5 million. I think "Sign O The Times" & "Parade" both sold more than they said too.

I think we might get some UK numbers soon, the official charts do those kind of articles a lot.

I just updated the US Singles Sales Milestones with Prince's digital totals. I tried to include Physical Certifications where I knew them, but it looks like you have different totals. Can you check out what I've added over there and let me know what changes to the Physical Singles Sales I need to make?
