Found this out of all places on the teenmusic website:
We've had a lot of threads regarding World wide total sale numbers for Oasis albums so here's another claim made by teenmusics researchers:
Oasis - Liam Gallagher (Vocals), Noel Gallagher (guitar, vocals), Gem Archer (guitar) and Andy Bell (bass) – have sold in excess of 33 million albums worldwide. Their five previous studio albums, Definitely Maybe (1994), What’s The Story (Morning Glory) (1995), Be Here Now (1997), Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants (2000) and Heathen Chemistry (2002), have defined Oasis as one of the most important bands to come out of the UK in the last decade.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oasis_%28band%29according to that website oasis has sold 44.5 million worldwide with only their 5 studio albums (not including TMP and singles). i don't know for sure how accurate it is, but it looks about right... the only thing that leads me to believe it might not be accurate is that it has DM selling 10m worldwide and BHN 8m. i always thought that BHN sold more since it came out after WTSMG, they were better know world wide, and there was so much hype for it. world wide sales according to that website: DM: 10m MG: 18.5m BHN: 8m SOTSOG: 3m HC: 5m

What it does'nt say are the totals oasis made for "The masterplan" and "Familiar to millions" which i heard made close to 8 million combined, then add the dvd sales and were talking serious amounts of units sold and serious amounts of money in Noels and to a lesser extent the rest of the band and former members  Cheers doggboy |

Bollocks mate. Definitely Maybe has sold over 2 million in Britain alone. Could be but noel said himself how suprised he is that its the lowest selling album of them all(On last weeks oasisinet webcast i think?) so if SOTSOG sold 3 million worldwide then i'd say my figure for DM was correct bearing the facts in mind  I find it hard to believe aswell, if 18.5 million bought WTSMG you'd think a good chunk of those people would check for there other albums  |
