Well, its one of the biggest selling singles ever!

Shakira is only the second act in 37 years to climb to #1 and then to reclimb once again, Mr Blobby being the other. All other songs to have reclimbed to #1 since 1969 have entered at #1 before reclimbing...
Plus Shakira has the all-time record for the lowest entry of any song to reach #1 and then to reclimb.
It was the Blobby who back that trend again!
