Note: my chart dates back to 1977 and there have been charts every week since then. However I will be doing most of my stats as 1998 and beyond, although on occasion I may go back further.

 

I have a 7 rule maximum and no #1 has ever exceeded that. In the earlier days 7 week #1s were more common, but are very infrequent.

 

Perhaps the most surprising 7 week NM #1 is "Stan" by Eminem because he's pretty much flopped with everything else he's ever released.

 

Since 1998 that is one of only 3 singles to have topped for 7 weeks, the others being "Health & Efficiency" by Cinerama in 2001 and "Beautiful Son" by Without Gravity in 2005.

 

Since 1998 the following have spent 6 weeks at #1:

 

1998: Cinerama - Kerry Kerry

2000: Ooberman - Shorley Wall

2003: Feeder - Just The Way I'm Feeling

2006-7: Fratellis - Whistle For The Choir

2008: Coldplay - Viva La Vida

2010: Eliza Doolittle - Pack Up

2013: Tich - Breathe In Breathe Out

 

5 week number ones have been a lot more common.

 

Prior to 1998, most of what was what was also in the UK chart. That is why I tend to split the eras here. During the britpop era, Pulp and Oasis both had 7 week #1s, Pulp with "Babies" and Oasis with "Whatever". It was common at the time for me to listen to whole EPs (or singles with their B-sides). Pulp was therefore "The Sisters EP" and Oasis's EP also contained "Half The World Away" among its other tracks. The presence of the other tracks kept Oasis at #1 for so long, or Scarlet would have taken over with "Independent Love Song" after about 4 weeks of Oasis. (It entered at #4 on the 3rd week of Whatever then was #2 on weeks 4, 5 and 6).

Plus many, many four weekers. One week on top is pretty unusual now, especially compared to the early days of my chart. Though having said that I'm currently on the longest run of one-weekers since 2008 so...

 

Interestingly, my best songs of the years 2007, 2009, 2010 and 2011 all only had four weeks or less at number one.
