andrea bocelli at no point ever outsold the original, by contrast when it first came out the Beyonce duet outsold the original by 63%. So the reason Beyonce gets the credit is because PERFECT was on it's way to peaking in the top 5 sonewhere behind "Havana"and"Rockstar"until everybody heard the Duet version with Beyonce which rallied an avalanche of media praise & attention to the entire project-"solo"version & all. Without that "Beyonce"boost, it never would have gone to #1 in the first place.
