what other albums have done this in the 21st century? the real question is what would 21 have to achieve for these deniars to admit it has made an impact.???

Some people will never admit it but many have now accepted the inevitable conclusion that it's simply a phenomenon.
41 weeks at No 1 globally............I know it's only an unofficial global chart but seriously....to be heading back to the top spot again more than 16 months after release, after so long there already - it's just amazing. And I would bet it will stay there again next week, since it's probably going to hit No 1 in the US (the largest music market) again this week.
21 has sold over 1m copies in 5 countries so far (US, UK, Canada, France, Germany) and I think is pretty close in Australia. There are only a handful of albums in history which have topped 1m sales in so many countries and Norah Jones certainly doesn't have one of them.
The sales are just astonishing
