[Kill Me]

Taylor is gonna pass Rihanna in 2 weeks. Couldn't they wait a little longer to update this ****?

[Rev8]

Kind of surprised Olivia is already almost top 50 with just her 2nd era

Surprised Sia isn't even the Top 100

 

 

I just remembered why I dont look at these charts

Olivia Newton-John is Top 10. Olivia Rodrigo is #53. So not sure which Olivia that is "almost Top 10" you refer to..

top 50*

My bad

[LOTF]

The fact that Madonna is #1 without the record of most #1 hits or a song going #1 every year tells you how big she is as a hit maker. And isn't she #1 overall? Male, female, solo, band, etc

[Lament]

Does Popular count for Madonna's points?

[k4rmabutterfly]

Dua  but she’s a non factor in the US according to ATRL 

[St. Charles]

I'm surprised at Katy. She kinda dominated the list with like 5-6 years of chart success.

Overall The Beatles are #1, Madonna #2

Ok Lizzo

This chart tells you Paula Abdul is a bigger hitmaker than Adele and Ashanti is a bigger hitmaker than Stevie Nicks. 

 

Janet Jackson while huge during her peak years never had more hits than Rihanna and Taylor Swift doesn't have more hits than Katy Perry. This chart will always be flawed considering its calculations which is why all-time sellers-type of lists are much more valid. 

[PoisonPill]

I’m always shocked at how high Olivia newton john ranks on these. I only ever knew her from Grease but she must’ve had a massive chain of hits.

madonna still in first place - and without christmas or re-recordings

Songs from the 70s have massive, massive points boosts on Billboard lists.

[Junipero]

The fact that many of these "newer" artists are on here shows just how much streaming has altered the rankings. Perhaps the most "successful" female on the Billboard Hot 100 hasn't even debuted yet(or isn't even born yet)...

"without Christmas" as if any other artist on that list has replicated the success Mariah had with Xmas music despite many attempting. 

[Stepfon]

Cardi THAT high already with one album and droplets.

[Punky Rooster]

Madonna #1 without any real worthless streaming bias

[Støned]

I didn’t know Brenda Lee was thee MPG back in the 60s. 
 

With RATCT charting every year, the Grandma of Christmas might enter the all time top 10 for females.

[Mystic Boy]

Aretha and Diana making the Top10! Also very surprised at Donna being this high! 

 

How the hell Linda Rondstat above Céline, Toni

 

And so many i never heard of, Helen Reddy,Robert Flack,Taylor Dayne, Sheena Easton, Carly Simon, Anne Muray,Pat Benatar, Jody Watley and so much more...... Were they extremely local or just extremely forgotten? 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

but certain billie and olivia stans have the nerve to say dua has “yet to breakthrough” in the USA 

[stevyy]

Nice Mariah at #2. We love to see talented people up there.

[Jjang]

Janet 

SZA 

[Hot Volcano]

Does anyone have this in a points system? I guess Gaga will eventually surpass Pink, Cher and Barbra. Hopefully already with Joker soundtrack and LG7.
