That's interesting indeed. The consistency and combined sales are impressive. I knew that Queen sold loads, but i didn't expect them to be the 4th best selling artists ever (probably 3th in a few years). The greatest shocker (and prove) is that Hot Space still managed to sell millions. The only one i'm missing is Elvis or someone like Phil Collins.

What's even more impressive is when you consider that The Rolling Stones had a decade on Queen, and that Queen weren't around as long as some of the other big names (Led Zeppelin, Floyd).

Thirth is impressive.
A class of its own

Zeppelin was only around for 10 or 11 years. Queen did almost twice that (1971-1991).

Queen would be higher than fourth if their USA sales hadn't dropped in the 80's.

Queen would probably be either #1 or #2 if they stayed big in North America.
