Both the Beatles and Elvis Presley sold more than 1 billion records each according to the Guinness world records list, and that`s when you count in albums, singles, cassettes and tapes.

Drake's numbers are questionable. His songs goes #1 on Spotify and Billboard within hours or a couple of days. I've barely known anyone listening to Drake like that.
Nirvana making it to the top 60 of all time while having only 5 years of career and 3 real albums is actually crazy when you think about it
its sad to see nirvana at top 60 honestly just because they have 3 albums. atleast they have one of the most bestselling albums of all time.
Nirvana is not the best to go on the list
The best top 5
My two favorites:
Queen and Elvis Presley head and shoulders above most of the rest.
And the Beatles, of course
@@jajaleco what sucks is that if the Beatles get a sales increase...so does the Michael Jackson estate.
He owned half of the beatle's catalogue.
My favorites Elton John, Beach Boys, David Bowie, George Michael, REM, Cher..
I hope RUclips doesn't delete your video due to copyright :'v
The Beatles, no doubt about it, are the greatest band of all time!.
The Beatles are in a league of their own. No.1 artistically and commercially. Only act on this list the people of the future will care about.
Crazy how many Jimi Hendrix Experience got with only 3 albums
Big one here.. where is Pearl Jam? Their worldwide total is between 85-100 million. In the US they have 31+ million alone (more than RHCP or Nirvana) but they’re not on the EAS site at all 🤔🤔
38 LEGEND 7 LEGEND
Madonna is the immortal Queen of Pop ❤
I am shook
This list is missing a TON of bands like Pearl jam, Donna summer, the who and more
because they haven't sold enough units
When the Beatles toured they were on the front page of newspapers and on the tv news .No other musicians had their power,police had to arange their movnents to concerts.
Eminem the GOAT 😎
Strange numbers for The Beatles. Probably US sales only. Worldwide it's much bigger.
Interesting list. Thanks. But I wonder where the hell is The Ventures? It's been told that they have sold over 90 million records world wide.
Yeah yeah
