And by jumping from No.41 to No.1, the David Guetta Single has the

3rd biggest leap to No.1 ever, in the UK. Here are the Top 5 biggest

leaps to No.1, (Singles Chart), that The OCC accepts:,

 

73 - BOYS & GIRLS - Pixie Lott (19-Sept-2009)

 

45 - HEY BABY, - DJ Otzi (22-Sept-2001) **

 

41 - GETTIN’ OVER YOU - David Guetta Feat. Chris Willis (12-June-2010)

 

38 - SO WHAT - P!nk (11-Oct-2008)

 

35 - ABOUT YOU NOW - Sugababes (06-Oct-2007)

 

*** = The DJ Otzi Single was on Import, when it was at No.45, but The OCC

accept it as a genuine leap to No.1, as the Import & UK release had the

same Catalogue Number.

 

** = Christina Aguilera - The OCC does not accept these 2 leaps to No.1, as her

UK, (No.1), releases had different Catalogue Numbers than her Imports.

So, The OCC regards the 2 Singles as entering at No.1 - as far as the UK versions

are concerned:,

 

71 - BEAUTIFUL - Christina Aguilera (08-March-2003) **

 

66 - GENIE IN A BOTTLE - Christina Aguilera (16-Oct-1999) **

 

And none of these count, either - because The OCC only accept leaps to

No.1 from within the Top 75:,

 

2003 - Westlife – Mandy 200-1 (29-Nov-2003)

2002 - Westlife – Unbreakable 196-1

Gettin Over You is David Guettas third number 1- not his second

I managed to miss When Love Takes over when looking at the list. He shouldn't do so many collaborations :lol:

 

Thanks M!key - I've added Rage Against The Machine to my Post.
