Any number of worldwide sales figures is an estimate, as there's really no way to know how many copies of Thriller were bought in Ghana in the '80s. And this being the record industry, figures were often inflated for promotional purposes. Based on a consensus of industry sources, including Billboard's sales figures, here is our list of the world's top selling albums.

According to Guinness book of Records (aren't they the most official?) Bat is #6
That said, who really cares. No matter if it's 3 or 10, the album has reached an incredible achievement. The only real consistent album is Thriller. In practically every list it has the #1 spot
Something I didn't know but was very amused to read is that in 2015, in the UK, Elvis Presley had the 4th biggest album of the year with If I can Dream.
