slw84 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 The 22 acts with more than one diamond album (which is difficult to get not everyone has that) inspired me to inquire about another feat. Is there a list of songs that hit #1 on every official chart for every country it charted in? All I can think of off the top of my head were: Whitney's Bodyguard soundtrack album and I will always love you hitting #1 on every chart Britney's Baby one more time peaking at #1 on every country it charted in. With a quick look at some stats and I found Albums peaking at #1 on every official chart WW: Bodyguard soundtrack - Whitney True blue - Madonna Confessions - Madonna Hard candy - Madonna All the way...a decade of songs - Celine Dion 21 - Adele 25 - Adele Singles peaking at #1 on every official chart WW: I will always love you My heart will go on Baby one more time Happy Yeah! Hips don't lie Because, LEGENDS! So far, Whitney and Celine repping for both albums and singles...they continue to shake the table and let the dust particles fall... Please let me know if there are more! EDIT: Removed Born this way (Gaga) Hello (Adele) after confirmation of non #1 peaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexStexaul Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Lady Gaga - Born This Way.. Unique,legandary album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternium Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Newer albums are at a huge disadvantage because there are so many more charts now. BTW (the album) went top 5 everywhere and #1 in 80%+ of all countries and still missed this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igetfilthy Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Born this way didn't go #1 in Brazil or Netherlands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike3009 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) I remember Madonna's "Hung Up" topped the charts in a record number of countries. But it didn't go #1 in the US. edit: It peaked at #2 in Ireland and New Zealand too. Edited February 17, 2017 by mike3009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike3009 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Also, Adele's "Hello" peaked at #3 in Portugal and #17 in Japan. So it didn't hit #1 on every chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex21kw Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I really doubt some of these songs peaked at number 1 in Japan or Korea i.e. Hips don't lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackbeatxx Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Of course Japan ****s up for Hello, literally no western artist, that arent dressed as a hello kitty/sailor moon mashup, can succeed there anymore.... but STILL, 2/3 Adele albums has made this unique feat only her indie debut couldnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbeatxx Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 But... Yeah ! actually missed the top spot in several countries. It's easy to check up. not even IWALY was #1 everywhere. I dont think any was tbh but that Hello might be closest in regards to official charts (27 #1's or smt like that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
