High School Musical or Hannah Montana soundtracks probably qualify for this   but I couldn’t say for sure.

Norah Jones - Come away with me 

 

Norah Jones - Feels like home

Don't Speak would have been a 10+ weeks at #1 smasha if it wasn't for BB's stupid rules at the time 

Probably one of the iconic rock/metal bands. I feel like Don’t Speak is a technicality cause it was just stupid Billboard rules and the song was obviously a huge hit.

 

Highway To Hell by AC/DC peaked at #47 but is obviously a massive classic and the album peaked at #17 and its 7x platinum. I’d imagine Metallica would fit this with one of their albums too.

Biggest album without a Hot 100 top ten (or top 20) hit:

 

The highest charting song (the title track) peaked at 37 in the US and the album went 25x platinum

 

Biggest album without a top 100 hit:

The album went 10x platinum and received 2 #1s on country radio (and a #2 and #8 hit as well), but none charted on the Hot 100

Actually, his next album No Fences would take the title since it’s 18x Platinum and also without Hot 100 charting

Hillbilly farms their power, I fear

born to die

Super common for country artists to have  massive success on the country charts but not so common for their single success to translate to the Hot 100.

 

Pretty sure The Woman In Me - Shania Twain, doesn't have any top 20's on the Hot 100 even though it is certified 12x platinum and has several memorable hits... and Up! I think only has one number 20 peaking song even though its certified 11x platinum.

It wasn’t just that album or the one before it too. He was consistently getting Diamond albums

The funny thing is he tried a pop crossover and got his first and only Top 10 hit in 1999 but the album it came from “The Life of Chris Gaines” only went 2x Platinum

Garth Brooks is the prime example of “local” in the massive successful sense
