Biggest Selling Singles In The United States
The biggest selling single of all time in the United States has sold almost twice as many as its closest competition. In 1997, Elton John released a remake of his classic 1973 song Candle In The Wind with new lyrics that paid homage to Diana, Princess of Wales after her untimely death. This single sold over 11 million copies in the United States. An incredible figure.
So what are the runners up to Candle In The Wind 1997? Well, only two have broken the 6 million mark (A Little Less Conversation by Elvis Presley & Here Without You by 3 Doors Down), and only 12 have cracked the 4 million mark.
