the funniest ones though for me have to be in 2004 when Corrs' Summer Sunshine got to No.1, then the following week was knocked off by Julie & Ludwig's On Again...Off Again. The week after, The Corrs went back to No.1 and then the week after that Julie & Ludwig climbed back to No.1! talk about indecisive!

I'm kind of like at the moment with "American Boy" and "Touch My Body" as of yet it hasn't happened, but it might over the next few weeks.

thing is...if you get bored of the song at No.1 all of a sudden and there are no new songs out to replace it, what other choice do you have than to put an old song back at the top

It's only happened to me once with "About You Now" from Sugababes. But that's only because I got bored of Gimme More from Britney which took the number one from them

It's only happened twice since my charts inception 9 years ago, the last time was for- Roger Sanchez's "Another Chance" - which had just 1 week in pole position on 1st July 2001, before falling behind Elbow ("Powder Blue") and The Avalanches ("Frontier Psychiatrist") for 3 weeks and then returning on 29th July for 2 further weeks..

Only once! And it was my second number one over 5 years ago! Franz Ferdinand 'Take Me Out' spend two weeks at the top before being knocked off for two weeks by LostProphets 'Last Train Home'.

I do tend to not make it happen though. I tend to feel that if it does the song inbetween didn't really deserve to be number one in the first place...

oh my god ohmy.gif I knew it had happened a lot in my chart over the ten years but I never thought the list was this big...these songs all had 2 or more stints at the top of my chart:

Eiffel 65-Blue (Da Ba Dee)
Ann Lee-Two Times
The Corrs-No Frontiers
ATB-My Dream
Kim Lukas-All I Really Want
Alice Deejay-Will I Ever
Spiller feat Sophie Ellis-Bextor-Groovejet (If This Ain’t Love)
Thrillseekers feat Sheryl Deane-Synaesthesia
Fragma feat Maria Rubia-Everytime You Need Me
Caroldene-Time Is A Healer
Christina Aguilera, Mya, Pink and Lil’ Kim-Lady Marmalade
N-Trance-Set You Free 2001
Ian Van Dahl-Will I?
Shakira-Underneath Your Clothes
ATC-Around The World (La La La La La)
Delta Goodrem-Born To Try
Birgitta-Open Your Heart
Delta Goodrem-Innocent Eyes
Motorcycle-As The Rush Comes
Sarah McLachlan-Fallen
Sarah McLachlan-World On Fire
The Corrs-Summer Sunshine
Julie & Ludwig-On Again…Off Again
Missy Higgins-Ten Days
James Blunt-You’re Beautiful
Jo O’Meara-What Hurts The Most
Madonna-Hung Up
Nerina Pallot-Everybody’s Gone To War
All Saints-Rock Steady
Take That-Shine
Scooch-Flying The Flag (For You)
Sara Bareilles-Love Song
Basia Bulat-In The Night
Charlotte Perrelli-Hero
Leona Lewis-Run
Taylor Swift-Love Story

the reason for these yo-yoing runs mostly happens when I have two songs that I love equally tussling for No.1...

I wouldn't rule out Alexander Rybak's Fairytale to join this list in due course kink.gif this is the 'Eurovision effect' where I hear songs before ESC, love them, then they fall down and then rise up again in May around the time of the contest

the reason it's so prone to happening in my chart too is because of my instant charting of everything...a lot of these songs I charted as 'album tracks' and then later on they get a proper release and return to the top as a single

All of the following have returned to my number 1 spot since my chart started beginning of last year...

1st: OneRepublic - Say (All I Need) [3-2-1-3-3-4-4-5-1-9-12-11-14-19-22-21-22-24-27-31-32-37-40]- 23 Weeks
2nd: Little Jackie - The World Should Revolve Around Me [3-1-2-5-8-5-1-4-11-19-25-35] - 12 Weeks
3rd: Britney Spears - Womanizer [2-1-1-1-1-1-2-1-3-4-8-13-15-12-14-21-24-23-26-29-37] - 21 Weeks

So looks like only three... SO FAR kink.gif

often I'll return a song to No.1 just to flush it out of my system and then it goes into freefall in the following weeks laugh.gif

There're no cases this year so far. But Alexander Rybak may get his 8th (already non-consecutive) week at number one very soon again kink.gif
