The horrors persist, but so do I Joined: 14 July 2013 Posts: 21,900 User: 19,534	Here's the most complete record I could compile of songs by or featuring Scottish artists on the Billboard Hot 100 in the Nielsen Soundscan era, which is 1991 to present day. I've put the list in three different orders: alphabetically by artist, highest-to-lowest peak, and reverse-chronological (2020-1991). There's a small chance I missed an artist or song, so if you notice anything like that let me know! ALPHABETICALLY BY ARTIST [peak] artist - song title (billboard chart entry date) (wks on chart) [14] Annie Lennox - Walking On Broken Glass (1992/09/05) (25 wks) [23] Annie Lennox - No More I Love You's (1995/03/11) (11 wks) [34] Annie Lennox - Why (1992/05/16) (20 wks) [49] Annie Lennox - Little Bird (1993/01/23) (12 wks) [80] Annie Lennox - Many Rivers To Cross (2008/04/26) (1 wk) [97] Annie Lennox - I Put A Spell On You (2015/02/28) (1 wk) [1] Calvin Harris (with Rihanna) - We Found Love (2011/09/28) (41 wks) (10 weeks at #1) [3] Calvin Harris featuring Rihanna - This Is What You Came For (2016/05/21) (32 wks) [7] Calvin Harris - Summer (2014/04/05) (26 wks) [10] Calvin Harris featuring Florence Welch - Sweet Nothing (2012/11/03) (27 wks) [12] Calvin Harris - Feel So Close (2012/02/25) (26 wks) [16] Calvin Harris featuring Ellie Goulding - I Need Your Love (2013/05/04) (25 wks) [17] Calvin Harris featuring Ne-Yo - Let's Go (2012/05/12) (20 wks) [19] Calvin Harris featuring John Newman - Blame (2014/09/27) (20 wks) [20] Calvin Harris feat.

That’s excellent work Jordan! Thank you very much for doing that, very interesting and I didn’t know how long we found love actually spent at #1

These were all massive airplay hits and are still getting airplay now, very well remembered here and deservedly so Also, I forgot about CHVRCHES! Of course 'Here With Me' made the top 40 last year, so I've edited that in
