I think what he's done is taken the figures from Media Traffic's all time chart and added in figures from Wikipedia's list of best-selling singles of all time for songs not on the Media Traffic list, which obviously makes for a very inaccurate list, since the two sources differ greatly. "Candle In The Wind 1997" has 33 million listed on Wikipedia, and 21 million listed on Media Traffic; the difference probably being because Media Traffic may not track as many markets as Wikipedia, and because Wikipedia uses pure sales while Media Traffic uses their own custom point system based on sales and airplay.

Why shouldn't he be allowed to feel good about the content he contributes? We don't all have to be self-loathing masochists.

Edit: Look, he unliked his posts. You broke him. :'(

I bet Boom Boom Pow is near the top now.

"Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line Featuring Nelly just surfed past the 7 million mark, so it should be in the 200-151 vicinity.
