There have been legions of summer bops, one-hit wonders, career-making anthems, and headline-making singles. There are songs you feel like you can't escape and songs you hear on every radio station.
But just a handful of those have been played so much, they've gone platinum multiple times — and even fewer have gone platinum 10 times over.
The latter can earn a diamond certification, the highest honor bestowed by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Since the official diamond award was unveiled in 1999, it has been awarded sparingly — if a song has moved at least 10 million equivalent units by combining sales and streaming numbers, and if an artist or label requests certification.
