Love Story, which sold enough to make the list, was from last decade. I don't know if she's crossed 5 million with any other single, though I think Shake It Off will later this year.

I think AATB is between 5.2-5.3 million, but let me look for a link later this morning for proof. I know it crossed 5 million right after New Year's, and has sold steadily ever since.

the digital decline is real. Only 2 songs from 2014.
Well SIO will join the ranks as the year ends so that'll make it 3

TOL should also reach 5 million by the end of 2014 too, but just barely. That would make four songs from 2014. However, I see nothing released in 2015 that will reach 5 million. BS & TMTC are over 4 million, but still far away from 5 million.
As for 2015, I think SYA can get to 4 million, but not to 5 million. BB and Sugar should reach 3 million, and LMLYD & EI could as well, but 4 million seems doubtful for those songs.

Okay I cannot find the exact total for "All About That Bass." But based on Kworb's totals last updated two weeks ago, subtracting 100,000 for CMA, and adding 29,000 for the past two weeks (that he hasn't updated the totals since two weeks ago), AATB would be around 5.22 million. If someone has a more exact total, please report it, since my CMA estimated deduction is completely a guess.
I know at the midyear mark,which is only two weeks away, we generally get a report of the biggest selling songs and albums for the year to date, but Meghan may have sold too much prior to New Years to make that list. Still, I fell pretty sure AATB has sold somewhere between 5.2 and 5.3 million units to date, and I am not counting anything she is projected to have sold this week. She will reach 5.5 million easily before the year ends, while SIO (hurt badly by CMA) and TOL should reach 5 million by the end of the year. I think UF will reach 7 million around Thanksgiving.

Hits Daily Double had Uptown Funk reaching the all-time Top 30 Digital Downloads today with 6.136 million. I'll share the link tomorrow of someone doesn't beat me to it tonight. I can't get to my laptop for sharing at the moment.

That Cheerleder song or whatever the hell it is its name, has a chance to become a 5M seller

I don't know what it sold this week. Also, the way SYA slowed down in sales, I'm not banking on Cheerleader to make 5 million either. Maybe 4 though.

I still think SIO and TOL will get there by the end of 2015, bringing 2014 to 4. I can't really think of one song from 2015 right now that will reach 5 million. SYA dropped off so fast. It'll get to 4, and I can think of some others that will get to 3, but unless something amazing comes along, I think we may skip 5 million in 2015.

This one will happen within the next month, so I'm providing the wording and the link to the site. The Band Perry's Country Crossover smash "If I Die Young" should reach 5 million by the end of July.
Here is what Roughstock has to say: The Band Perry “If I Die Young” at 4.987 million scanned. Song is or will be certified 5x Platinum soon'
http://roughstock.com/news/2015/07/3...k-july-1-2015/
So we need to keep an eye on there this month to see when "If I Die Young" sells these last 13,000 copies. This will probably be our next 5 million seller from the 2010s. The hit #1 on Country Airplay in late 2010, and was remixed as a soft Rock song and crossed over to Hot AC, AC, and Top 40 in mid to late 2011.

I asked Matt at Roughstock to let us know when IIDY crosses 5 million.
