Note: I Want You was certified Platinum by the RIAA in September 2004. The song was only a minor hit on Billboard's Hot 100, and charted as an album cut on the strength of airplay. Its large shipment is due to the fact it was a 'Lid Rock' freebie - that is, a promo CD given away free with drinks purchased in cinemas across the States, and such CDs are included in shipment figures certified by the RIAA. Since we are looking at sales, not freebies, we have not included the RIAA figure of 1 million for the song here.
