Pop Art Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I feel like there's three main ways to look at a songs' charting success. 1. How long it spent at #1. 2. How long it spent in the Top 10. 3. How long it spent on the overall chart. So I thought it would be interesting to look at each of the girls and see which of their songs fit into each of these categories and how long they were there. Longest Charting at #1 Spoiler 1.

Pop Art Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 Just now, selenachris said: Is it just one song per artist? Not necessarily. I'm listing the one song that lasted the longest at #1, in the Top 10, and on the Hot 100 overall. In some cases, the same song fits all three categories. In other instances, a different song by the same artist fits each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm listing which 1 song lasted the longest at #1, in the Top 10, and on the Hot 100 for each artist. The song that fits each of those three categories may change per artist, but it's only one song per category (except in instances where an artist has more than one song that lasted the same amount of time there).
