We've moved on from the C's to the D's where we have just over 600 artists. The D Section will consist of 6 weekly parts.

 

 

A reminder of the notes and conventions used in creating the data:

 

1. The first rule is that all rules have exceptions, common sense (and my own inconsistencies) may sometimes take precedence

 

2. Act names - I've tried to reflect the act names as given on the charts, occasionally this is different from that shown on the label or sleeve/cover. If the chart credit is undeniably wrong (e.g. "Elizabethan Reggae") then common sense has been used. An initial "The" from artists names has almost always been dropped, a separator of "And" is usually replaced with an ampersand.

 

3. Personal names - I have tried to show "real" names of performers where possible, middle names are not shown unless they have some relevance to the stage name (e.g. it would not make sense to show Rihanna's real name as just Robyn Fenty). Where the name an individual goes by is a standard short form of his/her given name (e.g. if someone known as Andy is really an Andrew), I normally haven't bothered showing this. Diactritics are shown where possible, but the software used in compiling the data has difficult with some non-ASCII characters, and the ý in Mýa. I have not shown aritst names in anything other than the Latin script, so for artists whose "real" names are written in Cyrillic, Burmese or Korean for instance, I have used the transliteration as normally shown on the charts. Artists from Northern Ireland are shown thus, rather than being from either the UK or Ireland which hopefully will reduce arguments!

 

4. Dates of birth/death - Shown where I have found these while checking out other details. Any additional information gladly received

 

5. Band membership - Normally relates to their hitmaking period only. Changes in personnel before or after this are very rarely shown. Members are normally shown in alphabetical order (but with some exceptions - e.g. Crosby, Stills & Nash are treated in that order) for either the debut hit or the main part of the groups career, with changes usually noted in chronological order

 

6. Featured artists - This got complex! Where a combination of lead/featured artist ONLY had hit(s) together (e.g. Gotye featuring Kimbra) they are only shown as effectively one act. Where the lead artist has had other hits but the featured one isn't, the lead artist only has a separate full entry. Where either the featured artist has other credits, or both do, both have individual entries. The same (more or less) works with normal duos - for instance Simon & Garfunkel's hits are listed under both Art Garfunkel's and Paul Simon's solo careers.

6a The OCC has sometimes changed the credit shown on the chart during a chart run. In such cases I have tried to use the most inclusive credit.

 

7. Where a record has been in the charts as both a "normal" A-side and a Double A-Side (whether in combination with a track by the same artist or a different artist), it is shown with separate lines (e.g. "Last Christmas" by Wham!)

 

8. When a record has re-entered the chart with a different artist credit, I have normally amassed the two together (e.g. "Woman In Chains"). Which artist credit I have used depends on the song itself, and a note is attached showing that an alternate credit exists.

 

9. Remixes/Re-Recordings/Live Versions used to be charted separately and are shown as different hits, but current practice is for all versions to be collected and charted together, so for any chart runs of such tracks since the advent of the download era are normally added to the original hit version

 

10. Labels and catalogue numbers are completely omitted

 

11. EP/LP tracks are shown where known when the chart entry was credited to an EP/LP. If an EP was released on two different CD singles, it is usually the tracks of CD1 that are listed

 

12. Most of the "bio" information comes straight from Wikipedia (to save time), so there is the likelihood that a number of the entries contain mistakes. Please let me know of any of these, or if there's anything that you think is significant enough to be mentioned. I have tried to keep opinions out of them, and kept references to genres to a minimum as those tend to cause more disagreements than almost anything else. Honours such as knighthoods, OBE's etc. are shown. Oscars, Grammys & Brits are a work in progress and will eventually all be shown, less high profile awards (e.g. MOBOs, Mercury Prize, etc.) are unlikely to be listed unless a particular artist has achieved something extraordinary.

12a Close family relationships between hitmakers are shown where possible, and also in some cases to other famous people (e.g. it made no sense to write even a sketchy bio for Jane Wyman and not mention she was married to Ronald Reagan)

 

13. Cross-references ("See also....") are a work in progress, as are the marking of US number ones. Expect these to get more comprehensive as the series goes on

 

14. Alphabetisation - aritsts whose name is an acronym (and is pronounced as such), e.g. ABC are sorted as if the name is a series of spaced letters (i.e. A B C). All such acts are listed at the start of those with that initial. Where an acronymic (?) name is usually voiced as a word (e.g. ABBA) then it is indexed under that word. Numbers are treated as if they are spelled out, punctuation is ignored. Individuals are indexed firstly under their surname then their given name(s). For some artists, it can be difficult to determine whether a name is a given name followed by a surname, or whether the whole thing is to be treated as one name. In these cases (most of which involve seem to involve rappers), I have tried to use the sorting sequence used for that artist within Wikipedia categories.

 

15. Where an artist has had hits under two (or more) different names, they are merged (e.g. Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus). With some combinations (usually European production outfits), it can sometimes be difficult to identity which pairings work under which names!

 

16. Nationalities - I've tried to use the nationalities where people grew up rather than the place they happened to be born. Where there is some difference of opinion I have usually come down on one side of the coin or the other. Large groups are given under the likely most-common nationality (e.g. the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is shown as Austrian, even if a number of them may not have been). Club football teams of the modern era are usually shown as "Mostly British". Anonymous cover version acts may be shown without nationality. Where a country has changed name since the person was born, I have no hard and fast rule about which name to use but hopefully this should be clear either way. Where I know a person has changed or taken on a second citizenship I have mentioned it

If anyone thinks that Dana's penultimate hit looks weird, that's because of the spam filter within this forum software which doesn't just filter out the word for where most of do our cooking, it plays around with the formatting characaters around that word as well!

The word 'kitchen' was added to the spam filter to try to combat spam threads advertising kitchens which were running rampant across the site. (Incidentally it hasn't worked as the spammers just come up with increasingly exotic ways of spelling the word). You can get around it by putting an open and close tag inside the word like so:

 

ki[i][/i]tchen

  • Author
Thanks Bré, will use that option next week. Looks a lot more elegant than my solution. 6 hit singles and 1 artist include that word by the way.
  • Author

Whoops! Forgot to post on schedule yesterday.

 

Part 21 added. No real chart behemoths included this week, with the most weeks on chart being those of Craig David.

 

Doris Day & Bobby Darin represent the real oldies, Dawn & Darts the 70s and Deacon Blue the 80s/90s.

 

An unusually high proportion of this batch appeared on the charts for just one week.

DAUGHTRY

American male vocal/instrumental group, led by Chris Daughtry (born 26/12/79) who finished 4th in the 2006 series of "American Idol". Other members were Joey Barnes, Brian Craddock, Josh Paul & Josh Steely

This is probably a bit fussy but "Other members were" implies that the band is no longer active, which in Daughtry's case is not true. But if your intent is to make everything past tense, then just ignore me :P
  • Author

Part 22 added, a rather pleasing mixture this time around.

 

Jason Derulo & Lana Del Rey of the current crop

Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mick & Tich and Karl Denver of the oldies

Def Leppard & Deep Purple for the headbangers

Destiny's Child and Des'ree from the R'n'B/soul side of the tracks

Depeche Mode who seem to cross several classifications

and Del Amitri who I'm very surprised to see never had a top ten hit among their discography.

 

 

(note on members of Daughtry amended as per suggestion)

The Dare who charted in 2003 were a different act to the one that recorded all the other hits.

 

And I believe Kelly Rowland was in Destiny's Child from the beginning (at least from their first hit).

 

Other than that, great stuff!

Final post for "D" data

 

Provisional "D" Schedule - slightly tweaked

 

23/6 - D B Boulevard - Danzig

30/6 - Daphne - Debarge

7/7 - Chico Debarge - Terra Deva

14/7 - David Devant & His Spirit Wife - DJ Garry

21/7 - DJ Gert - Dope Smugglaz

28/7 - Charlie Dore - Dyverse

 

Just liked to thank you for doing a great job with this. It's something I looked forward to on Mondays to see another section up and on the forum. :dance:

 

Only one thing. Can you not join the sections on to each other starting next Monday (14/7). It's just that if there's a break between the section, it makes it quicker to get to the next bit. So we can copy and paste it to our own files. Keep up the good work!

Do you mean one post for each "part" of 100 or so artists?

 

I do it the way I do to reduce the number of posts at the top of each thread that would be needed. I can get 150 average-length artists into a post comfortably, but not 200 (the software tells me that the posts are too large to handle) so for "D" I only need 4 posts rather than 6. I'm going to keep it the same way until the end of the D thread but I will then revisit it and see if there's a better way. Always open to listen to any suggetions for improvement.

I had the same problem in my personal charts. :lol:

Used Russian "k" letter.

I think it should probably depend on the numbers. If you did separate posts for S it would probably be too many but doing it for a letter like D would be fine. Perhaps you could put a line of hyphens between instalments.

  • Author

Yeah, that's one option worth considering. As I said, I'll keep it as it is for "D", "E" should not be too much of a problem as it is only about 240 artists so that will fit nicely into two parts and two posts without really thinking about it. "F" is over 400 so there's more scope for doing things differently if that's what the readers want!

 

 

In case anyone was wondering, I'm thinking about updating all the previously posted letters at the end of 2014 when I was originally planning to be 50% the way through the project (my enforced time out due to my accident meant I lost about 8 weeks). I'm open to either doing it by editing the original threads or creating an all-encompassing special one for archiving, depending on the mods' preference.

 

 

 

Edit - just checked "S" - at the moment, it's just over 1000 artists so 7 posts at 150 or so artists or 10 posts at my usual pace of 100-ish artists by week so I guess even there, three posts at the start of a thread won't make much real difference in the grand scheme of things. Of course by then, Ed Sheeran might need a post by his self!

Part 22 added, a rather pleasing mixture this time around.

 

 

and Del Amitri who I'm very surprised to see never had a top ten hit among their discography.

 

I thought Del Amitri were fairly well-known for not having a UK Top 10, though of course they did have one in the US. Indeed, I think they're the only act to have been in both the US Top 10 and my Granny's living room, but that's another story. On a digression, two of my favourite indie acts in this section too, Delays and the Delgados. And also Delakota who had a couple of brilliant singles, especially 'The Rock'.

Part 23 added. Céline Deon is probably the biggest name of this batch, but there are several other very succesful acts (some moreso on the album front to be honest) - Neil Diamond, Dire Straits, Dido, Dexy's Midnight Runners and from more recent times Disclosure & DJ Fresh

 

 

This is the first half of the "DJ..." section, doubtless there are numerous examples of two or more DJ's using the same professional name, and I expect I've got at least one or two wrong. If so, please let me know.

 

 

Previous "D" parts also brought up to date with this week's chart, plus the amendments for Dare & Destiny's Child as reported above.

A couple of slight errors in Dillinja's entry: his 5th hit was called Fast Car, and his last hit was Thugged Out B***h/Rainforest (Polyhex lists the word as uncensored).

 

Apart from that, great stuff as usual!
