When was the last time a UK female solo artist spent atleast 7 weeks at no.1 ?

Edited December 10, 200717 yr by fiesta

I think it's the first time for a single uk artist

Do you know what, i'm glad christmas songs are now packing up the chart. It means artists are going to have to work hard for a good placing instead of just expecting it - i'm not talking about Dannii here, but bigger artists. I am slightly worried for Sugababes though, they should make top 10, but with christmas fever taking its grip and still 2 weeks to go, its gonna be interesting as to who will be placed where

it would be interesting to see mariah finally get a third number one with a track thats been released for 13 years!

what happened to the singles from Bon Jovi and Maximo Park? Didn't see either of them in the top 75 :huh:

When was the last time a UK female solo artist spent atleast 7 weeks at no.1 ?

 

 

She was tied with Mary Hopkins with 6 weeks last week according to MW Digital, I guess she is the longest British female

 

Leona is also the British Female with 'The Most Weeks at No.1

in The Singles Chart' - she beat Sandy Shaw's UK Chart Record

2 Weeks ago.

 

Sandie Shaw:,

 

'(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me' - 3 Weeks - 1964

'Long Live Love' - 3 Weeks - 1965

'Puppet On A String' - 3 Weeks - 1967 = 9 Weeks

 

It has actually taken 40 Years for a UK Female Solo Act to

beat Sandie:,

 

Leona Lewis:,

 

'A Moment Like This' - 4 Weeks (2006/2007)

'Bleeding Love' - 7 Weeks (2007) = 11 Weeks

 

No other UK Female has spent longer than 7 Weeks

at No.1 in the UK Singles Chart:,

 

Cilla Black:,

 

'Anyone Who Had A Heart' - 3 Weeks - 1964

'You're My World' - 4 Weeks - 1964 = 7 Weeks

 

First top 75 since July 2006 not to feature either 'Rehab' or 'Chasing Cars'.

nice to see mariah in the upper reaches. imagine if rules like these had been in effect for the past decade and a half (or if physical singles had stayed in print longer)
