As it stands, the Paul Epworth led piece now enjoys a total of 124 weeks in the US Top 40, while boasting sales of 25 million units worldwide.
Now, after creeping its way to #35 on last week’s Billboard 200, it now stands a mere three weeks away from scoring the most weeks held in the Top 40, snatching that title away from Shania Twain‘s 1997 LP ‘Come On Over‘- which enjoys 127 weeks in that spot.
Shifting 15.2 million units within the first two years of release, ‘Over’ now faces the threat of its record being pulled weeks after Twain confirmed the release of a brand new studio album here, and almost two decades after it was certified 12x Platinum in the UK after watching it sales surpass the 3 million mark in the market.
