P!nk’s “Greatest Hits… So Far!!!” best selling album in Australia for 2010.
P!nk’s almost unhealthy dominance over the land down under shows no signs of slowing down, with ARIA reporting that the singer’s recently released best of compilation ‘Greatest Hits… So Far!!!’ is the best selling album in Australia for 2010.
The album was only released in November, but has already managed to go 4x Platinum in Australia, selling 200,000 to become the biggest seller of the year.
However, the number marks a sharp decline in record sales, as 2009′s best seller, Susan Boyle’s I Dreamed a Dream, shifted almost half a million copies — marking a drop of almost 300k between 2009 and 2010.
The huge Aussie success of Pink’s Greatest Hits album is nothing new for the singer. Her last two studio albums, I’m Not Dead and Funhouse, are both 11x Platinum, and her Pink: Live in Australia tour DVD is the biggest selling music DVD in Australian history after being certified 29x Platinum (and counting – It’s still #6 on the chart). The actual Funhouse tour itself was also the most successful tour in Australian history, grossing over $80 million in the country alone.
Pink belongs to Australia now. No America, you can’t have her back!
