What are you on about? Beef? What a completely irrelevent thing to bring up.

Crush - 8 million
Bounce - 3 million

So, 120 million to me sounds about right. I'm pretty certain between Have A Nice Day, Lost Highway, the first 2 albums, and Jon's solo albums, that total would reach over 30 million.
Back in September I believe , Jon and Richie did that radio interview for the 20th anniversary for New Jersey they reported 18 million.

I know the source is not reliable, and you just have to listen to the first 10 seconds. And this was just before LH being released.... So that is at least 125M records, with 4M Lost Highway, and probably at least another 1 Million records from the others.

As I've said before on this Forum.....

Thriller DID NOT sell 104 million copies, which is what's being reported in the Media nowadays. The last time Thriller got a proper count was in 2001, and that was 52 million copies. There's no way that in 5 years (2001-2006).....when he ended up looking more strange, dangled a child off a balcony, did a controversial interview and faced child molestation charges in America (and don't forget that legal/illegal downloads are happening).....that Thriller would double it's sale.

According to the the editor and chief of The Guiness World Records Book (and I have the audio of this interview), the figure of 104 million came from Sony BMG (Record Company), but it's still to be confirmed.....
Quote:
"From the US, we have 27 million confirmed sales. In the UK; 2.9 million. From the International sales, we're probably gonna estimate 30 (or so) million.

At our very top, we maybe peak at 65 million.

Michael Jackson's people; they're own sales figures boosts us up to something like 104 million.

Ultimately, I think it will remain the biggest selling album of all time."

- Craig, Editor of Guiness World Records Book - November 2007
