Since 1958, the Recording Industry Association of America has recognized achievements from artists through its gold and platinum awards for top-selling singles. In 1997, the organization acknowledged its first diamond recipient, Elton John, for his single “Something About The Way You Look Tonight / Candle In The Wind.” Since then, there have been 120 singles that soared to diamond status. (Also see Elton John’s best albums.)
To determine all singles that have achieved Diamond certification, 24/7 Tempo reviewed data on certified U.S. singles sales from the RIAA. The RIAA awards Diamond certification to songs that have sold at least 10 million units in the United States – including downloads and streams, computed at a rate of 150 of either equaling one unit. Singles were ranked based on certified U.S. sales as of October 2023. Data on Billboard Hot 100 chart performance is current through the week of Oct. 14, 2023.
Of the 120 diamond singles on the list, 66 summited the Billboard Hot 100. Sixteen artists had a song atop the chart for 10 weeks or longer. Lil Nas X and. Billy Ray Cyrus’s collaboration “Old Town Road” sold 17 million units and was No. 1 for 19 weeks on Billboard Hot 100, the longest of any single ever. (Click here for the artists with the longest streaks on Billboard Hot 100.)
Eleven artists made the list although they failed to crack the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. Kid Cudi featuring MGMT & Ratatat’s “Pursuit Of Happiness (Nightmare)” only reached No. 59 on the Billboard Hot 100 but managed to sell at least 10 million units.
All but two singles were on the chart for at least 20 weeks. The song spending the longest time on the Billboard Hot 100 was “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd at 90 weeks.
Artists with the most diamond singles are Post Malone (eight); Bruno Mars (six); The Weeknd (five); and Lady Gaga, Drake, and Katy Perry (four). Many of these hits were in partnership with other performers.
Only five singles before the 21st century are on the list: Two from Michael Jackson and one each from Elton John, Queen, and Whitney Houston. Boosting the presence of more contemporary artists on the list have been new opportunities for sales. Besides physical sales, RIAA certification includes each permanent digital download counting for one unit and 150 on-demand audio and/or video streams that count as one unit.
