Well, sort of. On vinyl it was def a double album. On CD it was a (albeit quite long) single. Lindsey was disappointed that they didn't stick to doing a "double album", so from his view, SYW actually wasn't the double album (double CD) that he hoped for.

There's perhaps something to be said for this. If SYW had been a double CD its sales would have counted double. IF it had sold the same 900,000 it did, then it would have been certified Platinum (for 1.8 million), which might have goosed the sales somewhat and maybe could have bumped it to Double Platinum. That didn't happen because SYW was a "single" so it achieved Gold status for 900,000 in sales but stopped there.
