July 19, 201014 yr P!nk only needs a #8 to bag the whole top 12. But the point about Eurythmics is they have had one and only one song peak at each position. Pink has had two number ones and two number sixes.
July 19, 201014 yr a recent one is Eminem - Not Afraid 5-6-5-6-5-10-14-14 one i really like is :heehee: 35-1-1-1-1-4-6-6-10-10-11-14-15-19-12-13-21-26-29-35-43-50-60-68-85-62-60-67-59-74-82-98-OUT-47-34-52-85-90-92-97-OUT-89-OUT entered at 35 on remix downloads alone and then went to #1 on downloads alone, which was then the biggest jump to #1 inside the top 40, jumped from 19 to 12 because of xmas and was infront of the second single of the album and it re-entered the chart from being performed by Steph Dean at Max's funeral on Hollyoaks. Do you know what it is yet?
July 19, 201014 yr Thoroughly awful song but Celine Dion's Think Twice took ages to get to number one, stayed there for seven weeks before dropping out pretty quickly 53-42-52-30-28-22-20-9-8-5-6-4-2-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-3-4-12-17-22-34-51-67-70
July 19, 201014 yr The Killers' Mr. Brightside has 71 weeks top 100, but only 3 in the top 40. That is just metal isn't it!
July 19, 201014 yr Gordon Haskell and No Doubt: both were #2 behind $h!t songs and both spend only 4 weeks top 40. Vanessa Carlton's 'A Thousand Miles' was quite good - 4 weeks at 18. The Feeling did the same four straight weeks at #16 I think.
