I have been tracking the performance of this song (which didn't even break the Top 40 here) and in the U.S it's broken 1m. Also it has hit a new peak of #26 on the Hot 100 after climbing for a massive 21 weeks!

Unexpected Top 10 in a couple of weeks time? I'm pretty baffled with the success considering she never promoted there right?

I moved to the US back in October 2011 and I have heard "Lights" loads on US radio. Not surprised to hear this news but very happy

Actually she's done quite a few tv performances, Saturday night live and Ellen being the ones that spring to mind, and on her facebook page she's always posting videos from radio interviews/performances there. She's also done some touring as well.

Platinum is no big deal in America but well done to her anyway.
