In the 80s Whitney created an amazing record: 7 consecutive #1 singles. |

What is your problem with The Eagles ? I have noticed you made comments on a few threads, like there was something wrong with their certifications ? It's not a contest, no need to be SOUR. When they were recertified in 2018, they were last updated in 2006. Look at this lastest updated to the Whitney album, timed to perfection, they have know about all year. But decided to update it the week before the RORHOF ceremony. Hell it hasn't been updated since 1995, so it took 25 years for the album to sell another million copies.

There IS something wrong with their certifications. I'll try to find the article(s) I read up on this but I stand by what I said.
I believe I know what you are referring to, and there is nothing wrong with their certifications. It called EAS = eqivalent albums sales. We are in the digital era, so any 10 singles sold, are counted as an album. So say the single Hotel California, every 10 singles sold digitally are converted into 1 album being sold (whatever the album the single was released from). It's the same for everyone, since 2015, they just hadn't been updated in a while. The Eagles have hardly ever ranked in the top selling of EAS/streams in the past decade plus whereas Michael has appeared regularly. Even then, I heard tell of the recounting many of their albums/singles that have already been bought; that should not be happening and it reeks of agenda. |

Meh, I've always believed that Whitney Houston was overrated, the last female artist that impressed me was Sade [Edited 12/10/20 9:26am]

I thought you said the 1980s is part of the "golden age of music", but Whitney was 1980s.
You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton |

The 80s is but I was never insanely mind blown from her, as someone who witnessed Aretha, Etta James, Donna Summer, Karen Carpenter and so much more. Whitney was alright |

"Whitney was alright?"....Put your pipes up against hers and let's see which one is just alright. |
