SOF might be there soon if someone performs it on X Factor Rock Week next week (Jamie)

I know I Gotta Feeling will be in the top ten next week. The track is legendary record breaking song. Look how it performed in the States and rest of the world. :yahoo:

I'm hoping Jamie will do it again... I think Simon could be clever enough to pick him that song.

Anyhow, if it does go back to the top ten that would only be its tenth week.

I know that but with a live performance it could spend 2 weeks top 10.

We are in a similar situtation to the early 1950's. Then Top 3 Singles often used to stay

in the Top 10 for ages - without getting close to even 600,000 Sales, most of the time.

It is the same now. Downloads enable Take That, (for example), to hang around the

'Singles' Chart for longer, without Selling as many as their biggest 1990's Hits did.

 

So, if we were to use Points, to work out the All Time UK Singles, you'd find that many

1950's Hits were way up in the List, as well as many Hits from about 2005 to 2009. In

neither case is it anything to do with those Hits outselling Hits from other Decades. Overall

they are not outselling other Decades Hits.....

I've a list off them all at home ill check later :D

Updated :o

Really pleased 'I Gotta Feeling' is now atop this list! :D

17 weeks at Top 10 for BEP!!!!! Wow! Could they make it 20 weeks? Probably.

I think "I Gotta Feeling" must be the longest run in the Top 10 since Celine Dion's "Think Twice" back in ... 1994! :o

They deserve to but I don't think it's likely :(

It may get another couple of weeks back in top 10 after christmas perhaps?

Great New Year song and all that

I Gotta Feeling has its best chance at a return to the top ten next week after they have appeared on the X Factor (they're performing MMH though) and Switch Live (which I doubt will have much effect)

sorry if there's a thread already, but it begs the question, what are the longest top10 runs ever? Obviously Frankie Laine, Wet x3 and Bryan Adams will have the BEPs beaten but does anyone have a list?

Hey Ya was non-consecutive.

 

Boom Boom Pow is so much better than that other BEP piece a' $h!t.

Judging by the way it's going atm, it looks like BEP will have another entry to this list with MMH in a couple months :o

Maroon 5's "Moves Like Jagger" to join this list soon?
