Brishka Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I'm comping a list of huge hits that never made it to the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100. Chop Suey (peaked at #76 in 2001) - 624 million Spotify streams. Still D.R.E. (peaked at #93 in 1999) - 634 million Spotify streams. Down with the Sickness (never charted, 2000) - 408 million Spotify streams. Don't Speak (never charted, 1996) - 357 million Spotify streams.

MrPeanut Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 12 hours ago, winebaldo said: WHATTTT?? Was due to the Hot 100 rules in the 90s. Couldn't chart because there wasn't an official physical single released, I think, even though it was #1 on the airplay chart for a record 16 weeks at the time.

greeneyedsoul Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) It's Raining Men? On charts it did well in a few European countries but overall a flop yet it's one of the most known songs.

jamiko1230 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Uh not gonna name 1 song off that bat (overall though) highly likely that 1999-~'04 era of songs when record industry GREED was its peak (record #s for albums) yet they basically 86-ed singles mainly in the US. BB Hot 100 was ALL airplay and absolute mess lol. Never forget paying $10-15 for 'Euro imports' of friggin 'Play' by JLo, 'You Drive Me Crazy' by Britney and endless others lol. Luckily by 2001/02 (beginning of P2P etc..) RIAA got the middle finger 1000s of GBs back! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bey_Rihstan Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 a lot of 70’s/80’s/90’s R&B hits are still staples in the black community. Here are a few off of the top of my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Price88 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Gosh where I can begin.

Bet these songs wouldn’t of fell off in one week. Some more I remember were: omc-how bizarre, Sheryl crow-a change, hanson-where’s the love?, bob carlise-butterfly kisses, gods property-stomp, alanis-uninvited, prince-betcha by golly wow!, Mariah Carey-breakdown, Paula Cole-me, Robyn-do you really want me, Hanson-weird, billie Myers-tell me, fastball-the way.
