It gets better, 65 million less than Backstreet Boys!!  Or even Genesis, so I will not need to throw away Foxtrot just yet
135 million less than Celine Dion or Mariah Carey! Or even my beloved Pink Floyd.
Abba sold between 200 and 300million, right when Punk was at its highest
Finally The Beatles and Elvis, 1 Billion records.
Who said pop music was dead!

Opps I wasn't challenging your EGO! How many wasn't the issue mate!
I was clearly stating that a band playing punk in the Mid- noughties (or first 10 years of the 21st Century) were selling a lot of records!
But thanks for doing the research!!!

PS I note you say your beloved Pink Floyd, may I point out - a band who were inspired by LSD and Cannabis!
