Posted October 19, 200915 yr Major pop stars that have singles that completely flop. I was wondering if anyone knows any 45's by any of the major acts of the 50's to 2000 that was once huge but probably ended up in the bargain bin, and never graces the Top 75 or shows like Top Of The pops, and then forgotten. Often missing from major singles lists, ie Cliff Richard's 100th single wasn't really his 100th as some did flip before.... over to you lot..... !!
October 20, 200915 yr my imediate thoughts are that i cant think of any! ok i know quite a few that had flops before they became big .... solitary man (neil diamond) for eg.. but not from ready established stars
October 20, 200915 yr didn't we do this not all that long ago coz I'm sure kate Bush's Night of the Swallow got mentioned which missed the Top 75 all together. You could put The Dreaming and Hammer Horror in that category as they both missed the Top 40.
October 20, 200915 yr Author I was thinking this wondering the moment popstars lose the "spark" release some complete flops and then vanish completely, though some do recover ya know when the last hits are in the Guinness book, what comes unnoticed.

When the complete chart was Top 50 the BBC shortened it to Top 30. I go with the complete official chart. This makes them hits even though they were minor ones because they made the Top 75. One Kate Bush single that did flop was There Goes A Tenner.
