Since 1990 only two records have entered the chart at No2, fallen and then climbed to No1!

 

Steps - Heartbeat / Tragedy (1998/99) 2-5-5-8-8-6-4-1-

R Kelly - I Believe I Can Fly (1997) 2-5-1-

 

? Beyoncé - If I Were A Boy (2008) 2-3-(1)*-

A honourable mention to James Blunt who climbed to No2 slipped and then climbed again to the summit:

 

James Blunt Your Beautiful (2005) 12-6-2-3-3-3-1-

That Steps chart run is quite phenomenal :o

I don't think Beyoncé will be #1 on Sunday. It seems so odd to see a track that isn't #1 on most digital sites or physically at the top, it can't happen too often.

Nice bit of chart trival, it would have been well impressive if Nickelback - Rockstar reached #1

It be more of a kick in the face since its been #1 all week, and got beaten by 5 units at the end of Saturday trading.

 

And on Monday we all be going, blimey got beaten by 5 units :lol:

Yeah, it'll certainly be close. It's my favourite song from the top 3, but I think it's the one I least thought would be at the top this week. The Killers seem to have shifted the most downloads, X Factor is presumably still #1 on physicals it's just that both tracks aren't performing too well on the other formats so Beyoncé is 'stealing' the #1 because she's probably #2 on downloads and physicals.

I'm not a big Beyonce fan and this song is the first of hers that I've really liked.

There is no doubt in my mind that if The Killers got given a full physical release they would have had a better shot at the number 1 and probably be in the middle of X Factor and Beyonce :( And as a fan of The Killers - That stings quite a bit :lol:

 

If Hero climbs back to No.1 by Sunday after Beyonce has been there all week then i will loose all respect for X Factor completely :(

I honestly prefer X Factor's song :P So I hope they do beat Beyouncey but that's not to say I dislike Beyonce's song AT ALL!

Yeah it hurts me too. Why isn't there a digital package at lease? Some B-sides? A remix? All of their remixes are phenomenal :wub:

I like the song better too, but it has too many no hopers on it, and i'm bored of it now. I'd rather have a new number one!

I agree with that. Plus it'll be another 'ego massage' for Beyonce if she makes it... :puke2:
