The new million sellers club

The UK’s Official Charts Company has revised its list of songs that have sold over a million by combining sales and streams for the first time. As a result, the number of tracks to sell at least a million has jumped from the 169 achieved on pure sales, to over 300. Elton still tops the list, but a certain Mr Sheeran and some other new kids on the block are snapping at his heels. Check out the top ten, with combined sales/streams in brackets…
