Do you know if M2M ever had a tie-in with Final Fantasy? In wandering around YouTube I've noticed a lot of links, but they all may simply be fan vids where the fan posts visuals from Final Fantasy and uses an M2M song for the backing track.
Leona Lewis is doing/has done a song for Final Fantasy. (Intricately plotted videogames are an unknown world to me. My knowledge ends with Space Invaders and Centipede.)
M2M's "Don't Say You Love Me" was on the first Pokémon soundtrack in '99, before their first album was even released.
This is how the first M2M album, Shades Of Purple, did internationally, according to Wikip:
Norway (Certified Gold, over 20,000 copies) Philippines (4x Platinum, over 60,000 copies) Mexico (Certified Gold, over 75,000 copies) Chile (Certified Gold, over 7,500 copies) Thailand (7x Platinum, over 105,000 copies) Indonesia (7x Platinum, over 280,000 copies) Malaysia (3x Platinum, over 60,000 copies) Singapore (2x Platinum, over 30,000 copies) Taiwan (Platinum, over 14,000 copies) South Korea (Platinum, over 300,000 copies)
Their later material continued doing well in the Philippines and Mexico and Norway but seemed to have fallen off everywhere else, unless Wikipedia's info is incomplete.
Marit Larsen only sells in Norway and in the German-language European countries, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. (In Germany "If A Song Could Get Me You" was number one for five weeks, preceded by Emiliana Torrini's "Jungle Drum" and followed by Rammstein's "Pussy." In Austria it was number one for a week, also preceded by "Jungle Drum" and followed by "I Gotta Feeling," but then it knocked the latter off the top spot and held on for another three weeks until beaten by David Guetta ft. Akon "Sexy Bitch." For some reason I find those juxtapositions amusing.)
