who has the best selling single of all time?
bing crosby
the song has sold over 33 million copies worldwide, which makes it either the best-selling or the second best-selling single worldwide of all time. the confusion and debate on whether john's record is or is not the best-selling single in the world is due to a lack of information on sales for the record's main contender for the number-one spot, bing crosby's recording of "white christmas," because crosby's recording was released before the advent of the modern-day us and uk singles charts. however, after careful research, guinness world records in 2007 concluded that, worldwide, crosby's recording of "white christmas" has, in their estimation, sold at least 50 million copies, and that john's recording of "candle in the wind" has sold 33 million, making crosby's recording the best-selling single of all time. however, an update in the 2009 edition of the book decided to further help settle the controversy amicably by naming both john's and crosby's songs to be "winners" by stating that john's recording is the "best-selling single since uk and us singles charts began in the 1950s," while maintaining that "the best-selling single of all time was released before the first pop charts," and that this distinction belongs to "white christmas," which it says "was listed as the world's best-selling single in the first-ever guinness book of records (published in 1955) and – remarkably – still retains the title more than 50 years later."
