LINKIN PARK's "Somewhere I Belong" single has been certified silver in the U.K. To earn a single certification for a single in the U.K., LINKIN PARK had to sell 200,000 units of the song. The platinum, gold and silver certifications awarded by the British Phonographic Industry in recognition of sales milestones have included audio streaming data since June 2015, with 1,000 streams counting as one "sale." "Somewhere I Belong" appears on LINKIN PARK's 2003 album "Meteora", which has been certified double platinum in the U.K. LINKIN PARK's "Breaking The Habit" and "Faint" singles were also previously certified silver while "Numb" has gone platinum.
