August 17, 20187 yr I think the 59p reduction kinda helped There was that too, but I think it had a big increase in video streams this week too, inexplicably
August 17, 20187 yr I doubt it's the record but Let It Go accumulated 14. It actually had 16 weeks top 20 :o
August 17, 20187 yr It actually had 16 weeks top 20 :o In total, yes. But as a consecutive chart run it was 11 weeks.
August 17, 20187 yr Looks like that record may well belong to Jay-Z and Linkin Park then! So much injustice!
August 17, 20187 yr "First Time" loves that #24 spot! Record breakingly so :) http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=154012
August 17, 20187 yr Possibly 'Numb/Encore' by Jay-Z/Linkin Park, 13 weeks drifting between numbers 14 and 19, back between December 2004 and March 2005... Edit: Doctor Blind beat me to it! While we're on that subject, is Panic Room any nearer to breaking the record for most weeks spent in the 31-40 bracket without ever being top 30 if not already?
August 17, 20187 yr The OCC are a bit late posting the top 100, I want to see where Pinkfong charted! :P

August 17, 20187 yr "Due to a technical fault beyond our control, the latest charts aren’t showing on the site. We’re hoping to resolve the issue as soon as possible." -OCC on their Facebook page Wonder what's happened At the moment they are only showing the top 40 chart you can find it by pressing the NEWS tab and hit the relevant singles and albums news articles. Their chart database must have gone offline :(
August 18, 20187 yr I think the chart has got even worse (well as bad as when Ed Sheeran's entire album was in the top 20!). The current number one has been in the chart for 21 weeks! 5 MONTHS AND BACK UP TO NUMBER ONE. Shotgun rises back to number one. That's crazy. :( This sort of chart activity would have been impossible pre-internet and pre-streaming. Other than a 16 - 20 week limit for all songs eligible for streaming chart status, I cannot see any other way to improve the chart. No amount of chart stream 'quotas' will change the jukebox nature of the chart. Streaming will never equal true sales so just cap the streams - 20 weeks is enough and then the song is not eligible for chart sales. That would mean Geroge Ezra's Shotgun would have dropped out of the top 40 last week. The chart is busted, folks. Time for radical change. Edited August 18, 20187 yr by soundman

August 18, 20187 yr Wow that's amazing. I never knew that. You sure know your chart facts. :cool: Any other songs go back to number one weeks/months later?
