If Chasing Cars is still on the charts at Christmas then it will become the second longest ever chart survivor with 68 weeks overtaking Judy Collins early 70s hit Amazing Grace which clocked up a total of 67 weeks.

But they will have to almost double this to become the longest overtaking Frank Sinatra's My Way which clocked up a total of 124 weeks.

 

Bearing in mind that during Frank & Judy's chart reigns the complete chart was then only Top 50 and they were on physicals only.

[edit

mikey they haven't been updated yet :unsure:

 

Ernie K-Doe's "Here Come The Girls" at #71 is from the Boots' Christmas ad - watch

 

Before he was on the chart only with "Mother-In-Law". This song peaked at #29 in 1961. That's 46 years between hits!
