Britney's Best-Selling Singles in the US
Quote:
Here are Spears' top-selling songs. First, her biggest downloads to date, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Ten of her songs have passed 1 million in digital sales:
3,298,000, "Womanizer"
2,966,000, "Circus"
2,638,000, "Till the World Ends"
2,225,000, "3"
1,815,000, "Toxic"
1,770,000, "Piece of Me"
1,713,000, "Gimme More"
1,592,000, "I Wanna Go"
1,520,000, "Hold It Against Me"
1,255,000, "If U Seek Amy"
Since Spears released her first single in 1998, five years before SoundScan began tracking digital sales, let's also recap her top-selling physical (CD/cassette) singles:
1,412,000, "...Baby One More Time" (1998) (511,000 downloads)
778,000, "From the Bottom of My Broken Heart"(2000) (33,000)
415,000, "Stronger" (2001) (270,000)
60,000, "Me Against the Music" (featuring Madonna) (2003) (281,000)
57,000, "Oops!...I Did It Again" (2000) (465,000)

If the digital era already existed back in 1998, no one would reach Britney's numbers

With Glee doing another tribute to her, Circus will easily reach the 3 million mark this year if they cover it, along with TTWE which will also have the Twister commercial and free 'end of the world' promo.

Her sales are so low! I don't get why they're so low (the newer ones I mean)

She came out before the digital era + Lack of promo.

It's the same question I have, TTWE had what it takes to be 4x platinum or at least something in OTF size but her sales were compare with the times it was played on radio.

Till the World Ends should have more sales. It was played a lot on the radio.

The lack of promo hurt its digital sales, it could have been huge.

And she wouldn't have an album over 5x Platinum.

Regardless of how she is live, no-one can deny the legend status she's acquired.
She truly is the princess of pop!
