What features would u like to see in the Guinness book of hit singles?

 

I think a list of records that have climbed high to number one for starts

A feature on best-selling downloads. I will buy this years, last years was FULL of mistakes so I took it back.

The last edition didnt have straight lists of Number 1 albums, which is always something I am interested in. More sales would be bteer as well. They sometimes alos do peaks in the USA for Number 1s, but sometimes dont :(

I'd like to see a symbol which says if a track got to number one on the download chart just like they have a symbol which says if it got to number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

 

Some songs that were huge hits topped the download chart but not the official singles chart, for example Gwen Stefani- What You Waiting For, Green Day- Boulevard Of Broken Dreams, Gorrilaz- Feel Good Inc, Coldplay-Speed Of Sound, Daniel Powter- Bad Day and Corinne Bailey Rae- Put Your Records On.

That's a very good idea about the download chart.

One question that brings this to mind, next year's new book, will the tracks have the download date, or the Physical date for the singles, or both, it be confusing if they have both.

I'd imagine the date it enters the offical chart. So Ne*Yo for example would enter at 18 and climb.

maybe another book will be brought out including download charts and a guide to the best sites on the web?

Yes, they could refer to our own Buzzjack Chart Reference Library :dance: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showforum=45

 

And not to miss the many helpful people about to help them out.

I think more funny charts like top ten biscuit chart of records that reference afternoon snacks?

They could list the US & European peak postions

however if they did that they would probably annoy that bloke who does all the american billboard books along the same lines as the brithit singles book
