Here's my list of potential new certs.
Remember RIAA single certs are now physical sales + digital sales plus streaming + video views.
Holiday
SPS: 1,216,000 = Platinum new
Borderline:
Gold RIAA cert for 500k + 799k SPS = 1,299,000 = Platinum updated
Lucky Star
SPS 566k + 80s single sales is not enough for Platinum = Gold new
Like A Virgin
1.8 million physical single singles + 1,362,000 SPS = 3.1 million = 3x Platinum updated
Material Girl
80s physical single sales + 1,778,000 SPS = 2 million+ = 2x Platinum new
Crazy For You
1.8 million physical single singles + 1,149,000 SPS = 3.1 million = 3x Platinum updated
Angel/Into The Groove 12 inch single
Certified Gold for 1 million copies. 500,000 copies of the 12-inch single back when 12-inch singles counted double for RIAA certs. I think it can be certified Platinum without using SPS. WBR just has to pay the $350 fee = Platinumupdated
Into The Groove
SPS: 1,020,000 = Platinum new
Dress You Up
80s physical single sales + 466k SPS = Gold new
Live To Tell
80s physical single sales + 544k SPS = Gold new
Papa Don't Preach
Certified Gold + 678k SPS = 1,100,000 = Platinum updated
True Blue
Certified Gold + 334k SPS = 834,000 = Gold
Open Your Heart
80s physical single sales + 517k SPS = Gold new
La Isla Bonita
1,020,000 SPS = Platinum new
Who's That Girl
551k in physical single sales from an article in Radio & Records magazine + 206k SPS = Gold new
Santa Baby
509k SPS - Gold new
Like A Prayer
Platinum cert + 2,424,000 SPS = 3,424,000 = 3x Platinum updated
Express Yourself
Gold cert + 601,000 SPS = 1,100,000 = Platinum updated
Cherish
80s single sales + 317,000 SPS = Gold new
