The Beatles have sold over 160 Million albums in the US alone, worldwide its estimated at 600 million, not sure about Bowie.
Ps just because you sell 160 million albums in total, doesn't mean you've sold to 160 million separate people.
And most yanks and europeans don't give a **** about Bowie... Same with most people in the UK under 40 (and I'm being generous) too... And ****loads of old ****s don't give a **** about him either...
600 Million sales worldwide for the Beatles, not every Beatles fan has bought their music, I have all their albums but I've only ever bought 2.
True but then most people don't give a **** about Beethoven,Shakespeare,Dickens,Van Gogh,Joyce et al but to dismiss them willy nilly would be gross ignorance,just saying.
I never claimed that? If you think I'm ever going to agree with thefanwithnobrain on anything you're very wrong BILLIONS of fans!!!!!!!
Bowie = albums sold = 140M He has billions of fans but they all chip in together and share his albums...
You clearly cannot read very well, or are just selective in what you choose to read, is that your university education again?
PS: and that's a US billion since you're counting their fans too... Otherwise it's... 2,000,000,000,000+ fans in the world.
The Beatles haven't even sold that many albums in total (700+ million) so how can you say that's how many people think they are legends?
Billion? FFS Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi are in the Guinness book of records and I bet you not even heard of them That song ''Brimful of Asha'' was a tribute to lata's sister asha Bhonsle anyone sang about Bowie?
