it really ISNT the end of the world, but i do understand where the person who posted this thread is ocming from. OLP is SO awesome and its great that theyre getting more exposure, but....okay, say for example somebody started comparing them to Limp Bizkit or NSync or osmething. it just seems like being put on a compilation CD that lives and breathes britney and nsync is kind of like...i dont know, somehow making OLP equal to them. not that they are....or that just because SOT is ON that cd it will be bad, but don't u agree, as a fan, that it's kind of shitty to see that happen to such great music? i think thats the only point that was trying to be made.

Im kind of surprised that Gravity hasn't even gone gold yet!

I posted this thread becuase I read it on rich and shellys site and it wasnt on the site yet. It isnt the end of the world but im not happy about them being on it. Who really cares is right. I was just posting some news. ah well im happy i see OLP tommorow in concert whether they were on NOW11 or not.

you know OLP were on MUCH MUSICS vloume 6 with LIFE, so what if they are on this compilation. who cares. It is only a collection of teh biggest hits out today. I don't think you guys realize how HUGE SOT is and the audiences it is gettingacross to. Not only the POP crowd, but Adult Contemporary, Modern Rock, POP,. etc.
aslo I was told that GRAVITY is close to being certified GOLD in the USA> that means they sold almost 500,000 copies. YEAH way to go.

maybe because I think it is great that OLP are getting reconiziton now. Yeah for them. About time. they really are a godd rock band and deserve success here also. :love:

I believe that 1,000,000 sales of an album is considered diamond. Platinum is 100,000 sales. I could be mistaken though. Gold is 500,000, I think.

Yeah, i guess it's good that OLP is getting the exposure. But on the NOW cd's? They friggin suck. Suck hard. REALLY hard. But, I digress... :roll:

Arlie, you're thinking of the Canadian standards. 100.000 in Canada is platinum, 1,000,000 is diamond. 500000 in the US is gold, and 1,000,000 here is platinum.
