Kind of cool that each of these sets includes at least one song that would become a huge hit and one song that would stall and fade into oblivion.

^ Which from the 11/18/05 set would you consider a huge hit? None of them went top ten on CHR/Pop.

^Laffy Taffy

[Lozzy]

^ We're talking about CHR/Pop, where "Laffy Taffy" peaked at #15.

Doesn't say huge hit on specifically pop, though.

Sorry, was not speaking specifically about the CHR chart, but just huge hit in general, i.e., got exposed to a lot of the music-listening public and is likely still remembered. From that set, "Laffy Taffy" was the one I had in mind. If you are talking specifically about this chart, then you are correct, there are no big hits in that set.

Using the criteria I had in mind for a huge hit, 1/21/00 had an inordinate amount that qualify. "Dear Lie" is the only song there that I think fits the other category of stalling and fading permanently from public consciousness.

Oh, sorry for the false assumption.

I was right.

The 1996 one occurred when the recurrent rule was implemented on R&R. Anyone remember when the 20/20 rule went into effect? I know it was in 1999, but was it the 7/9 chart?

For the 6/21 chart, 5 of the droppers had been on the chart for 28 weeks or more. The only one that didn't was "Closer to Free."

The other droppers were

Collective Soul - The World I Know
Everything But the Girl - Missing
Natalie Merchant - Wonder
La Bouche - Be My Lover
Goo Goo Dolls - Name (the oldest at 39 weeks)

[somelikeitwhen]

I don't think that was the week, since 5 of the droppers fell off from the 31-40 range. They were:
Tyrese -Sweet Lady (from 40, 11 weeks on)
Robbie Williams - Millennium (from 39, 11 weeks on)
The Offspring - Why Don't You Get a Job? (from 36, 12 weeks on)
*N'Sync - I Drive Myself Crazy (from 35, 15 weeks on, spent 5 more weeks in top 50)
Fatboy Slim - Praise You (from 34, 12 weeks on)
Whitney Houston f/ Faith Evans & Kelly Price - Heartbreak Hotel (from 25, 21 weeks on)
I think it was started the week before, because that was the week Slide went recurrent and fell off from 18. HH was left on for an extra week as a mistake.

4/21/94 is the first week of the PPW era. In addition to the 6 debuts, "Found Out about You" by Gin Blossoms re-entered at #17 (for only 1 week)
