If ABBA's new songs this year do well, they could potentially make the list.
If they release with good promo, it wouldn't surprise me. |

I thought Rolling Stones had way more top ten hits, of course 21 is good too.

With streaming I think they'll be lucky to get Top 5 with them. Depends if they're any good of course. They can't expect the Abba name to just sell any old crap.

To be fair, The Beatles were only around for 10 years. Eminem released his breakthough album The Slim Shady LP in 1999 - 20 years ago. And some of The Beatles' most popular songs weren't released as singles. If streaming existed in the 1960s they'd most likely have had a lot more top 10 hits (they'd have done an Ed Sheeran multiple times if there was no artist cap rule too) |

It'll be interesting to see how high Calvin/Rihanna/Eminem can get. Rihanna will likely move up a few places as she's releasing new music this year. Ed will likely get quite high up as well, athough won't be able to album bomb the top 10 anymore thankfully.

Thought Sheeran would be higher. He is the king of achieving things it wasn't physically possible to achieve in the past. Will be a sad day when he overtakes the Pet Shop Boys, who have done better in this than I expected, probably because of loyal multi-format-buying fans in the late 90s and 00s. I can totally see Eminem leapfrogging U2, and Calvin is as popular as he's ever been.

It's really quite surprising he only had 5 top 10s pre-One Dance & 60% of those were with Rihanna!
