charts discussion Female Acts With Most Weeks Top 10 in UK (Singles)

[stevyy]

By the trajectory... Mariah could reach 101 weeks in January 2021.

 

It's so dumb that AIWFCIY has hit #2 in 4 different calender years now. (spanning 3 decades). With 24 cumulative weeks in the top 10, it is probably one of the longest running top 10s in British charts history.

Dua doesn't even have 10 top10s and already close to the top10 here 

She would already be top 10 hadn't BMH stalled at #11 - #12 for months

A bit surprised at Janet being #15 (with 17 top 10s no less) when this site likes to act like the U.K. never used her outside of Together Again.

I want to emphasize again, that the total for Mariah in the OP is WRONG.

[Oceania]

To think that Mariah's eras used to last only 2/3 singles average, as opposed to her peers' 6/7 runs per album...

 

Basically, every single song she officially released from 1992 to 2000 went top 10 in the UK

The fact that #22 peaking #Beautiful outsold some of those top 10 singles from the 90s shows just how incredibly great digital sales once were and how difficult it was to sell more than 200,000 physical singles.

Moreso when the chart turnover was really speedy in the physical era.

also, i just realised the 94 week total includes the Helping Haiti song which she isn't officially credited on as per Official Charts - which counts her to have 91 weeks top 10. where are the extra 6 weeks from?
