Since UK's population is 5x smaller than US's, isn't this population equivalent to Diamond in US?

It's incredible how UK's sales have remained preserved even in the digital / streaming age.

In the US for an album to be Diamond (10x Platinum, 10M copies) it needs to be bought by 3,13% of the total population; in the UK for an album to be 10x Platinum (3M copies) it need to be bought by 4,69% of the total population.

So the certification level in the UK is higher and yet it's easier to get an certification in the UK since more people buy alberms.

Sing was good. One is cute. Others - not so much.
