Usher proved the most popular here getting 3 answers for getting #1s in 3 decades. the artist with the most decades of #1s, Cliff Richard, was pointless, as are Queen who had #1s in 4 decades, Elton John, Eminem, Madonna, Robbie Williams, Blondie and Bee Gees who had #1s in 3 decades.

Thankfully, I got a Pointless answer anyway!

A4LcwjNH7m0 another unexpected most popular answer here in the All Saints #1 'Bootie Call', scoring you 3 points, whilst 2 others of theirs were pointless. I should've made this question girl group who achieved a #1 really, as it's yet another one with very spread out answers. Popular groups here included BWitched, Little Mix, Sugababes and Spice Girls, with a few looking to the distant past too.

G4 who I legit forgot about also had a few, whilst two of the biggest successes of this list Olly Murs and Ella Henderson ended up as pointless.

🔥🚀🔥 Joined: 30 August 2010 Posts: 74,565 User: 11,746	10. name a #1 hit credited to Calvin Harris 17ozSeGw-fY final question and now for one that will have a lot of you kicking yourself! 'Sweet Nothing' and 'Summer' made up nearly half of the total here, so many many points for anyone who went for either of those. other somewhat popular answers included 'Under Control', 'Feels' and 'I'm Not Alone', with his biggest hits in 'One Kiss' and 'We Found Love' being pointless and unanswered respectively. 'Spectrum' also got 2 answers, which I will accept as he is given an artist credit as a remixer on the song, even if the OCC don't recognise this as a #1 for him. ‘Blame’ (2014) dan.G, n4yr, SamJudd [2 points] ‘Dance Wiv Me’ (2008) DalekTurret32 [POINTLESS] ‘Feels’ (2017) Bjork, dandy*, Jahq, StoneDragon [3 points] ‘I’m Not Alone’ (2009) chrissmith276, West, vancey, Toilet Rollo [3 points] ‘One Kiss’ (2018) vibe [POINTLESS] ‘Promises’ (2018) Dobbo, Riser, Spiceboy [2 points] ‘Spectrum’ (2012) Mart!n, diva thin muffin [1 point] ‘Summer’ (2014) Scene, M4NGO, girlsaloudjunkie, LewisGT, Mack, mdh, Jester, Jade [7 points] ‘Sweet Nothing’ (2012) paulgilb, George.keh, tgl92, awardinlockdown, Math, Dan17F1, PeteFromLeeds, WhoOdyssey, Bré, Suedehead2 [9 points] ‘Under Control’ (2013) coi, Dexton, gavindeejay, jimwatts [3 points] Unanswered: ‘We Found Love’ (2011)
