I've been watching Michael like an addict on youtube during the lock down and like to think that I did my bit to help him with those rankings I think we all did!

Michael's on the list twice and I don't get how Beatles are ahead of Michael.

Nice list. Great to see MJ & Madonna so high. It seems (unsurprisingly) that Queen are so high because of the insane sales of Greatest Hits 1 & 2. I did a work quiz the other day and my question was 'Which 2 acts both have 2 albums in the UK Top 10 selling albums of all time?' The answer is Queen & MJ (Queen with GH 1 & 2, MJ with Bad & Thriller). So MJ is the only one with 2 studio albums. (Most people guessed Adele & Ed Sheeran, which do have 2 massive sellers but not in Top 10)

Why compare all of the "best" songs ever released by one band and compare them to 10 or 11 of the best songs an artist wrote over a short period of time, sequenced them in a certain way to make an album "click".

Plus having Dangerous as such a huge seller. 4 albums at 20 million plus sales. No one comes near that. I really can't think of anyone. I guess Adele and Ed Sheeran must be the closest?
