what is it with Portugal and Sweden (or is it Norway?) in having #1s that no one else has, like I'm Yours :P

 

The Story hasn't been #1 anywhere else either. ;)

Oh my god, Brandi falls off number one, never thought it would happen :o

I meant I'm Yours was #1 in Sweden, Norway and Portugal. Now the same for Beyonce.

It already happened before when Pink was #1, and when Jason Mraz was #1

Oh, sorry! Does anyone know why it was such a big hit there, and there only?

It was used in an advert, so it gained exposure, then radio jumped onto it like mad and then it was just uphill. It was also later used in more stuff.

 

It was a hit in other places though, #3 in Norway, #16 in Switzerland and #44 in Australia.
