sales

there needs to be evidence given here for the claim that this album has pushed over one million copies sold world wide - perhaps a band quote or official sales record from various countries...

Actually, citations need to be included for almost everything on this page. I removed several sentences of obvious opinion, but there's more work to be done here. Sky 19:17, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Bowie

Ashes to Ashes is here credited as a David Bowie song. The titles are the same, but the song is not a cover version.

album of the year sales

the closest i can find to FNM's album numbers are the chart peakes and staying power the album in various countries. So far i have tracked down at least 15 countries where the album charted and it seems by looking at the peakes and weeks the album has spent in charts it seems a fair call to say it sold a million + copies w/w. But other than that there seems to be no official anouncement of how many copies the album shipped. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.245.200.230 (talk) 03:35, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
