Can anyone think of any chart weeks where two or more songs that would go on to become classics were released in the same week? I'll start off:
W/E 3/6/2000 Sonique - It Feels So Good S Club 7 - Reach Pretty unfortunate for Reach to run into Sonique for 3 weeks in a row, it's probably their signature song, or at least on par with Don't Stop Movin'. W/E 27/10/2000 Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love Take That - Rule The World Both million sellers, Rule The World would have topped the chart on pretty much any other week in 2007 with the sale it had |

From 1997
Spice Girls-Spice Up Your Life Aqua-Barbie Girl And Janet Jackson-Together Again Robbie Williams-Angels Teletubbies released a million seller that week too-but would we count that as a 'classic'? |

I don't know if I'm stretching it to call Runaway by The Corrs a 'classic' but it was released on the same week as Baby One More Time. I was devastated.

I would count Runaway but then I'm biased.

How about most million sellers in the top 100 at any given time?

I guess it's a classic in certain dance circles, even though it seems to be becoming more and more forgotten as time goes on. For the record I've never actually cared much for the song, or any of her material. |

I suppose everyone's idea of what songs are considered classics will differ.
Week Ending 18/03/1989 Madonna - Like A Prayer Guns N Roses - Paradise City In my humble opinion, both of these have stood the test of time well. Week Ending 08/12/1973 Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday Elton John - Step Into Christmas Elton didn't make the top 40 that week, but entered next week where Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody was also a new entry. Who'd have thought that 40 years later they would all be Christmas classics? This post has been edited by Campbell: Nov 23 2014, 04:09 PM |
