^ Wow, none from "It Won't be Soon before Long" hit #1. I would have expected "Make Me Wonder" to have at least made it.

And I'd suppose MLJ to Sugar means that they hit 8 consecutive #1's during that span? Then the streak was broken by "This Summer's Gonna Hurt like a Motherf*cker"?

"Makes Me Wonder" did spend 11 weeks at #2. It was held out of #1 by Daughtry's "Home" and Plain White T's "Hey There Delilah".

They did not have 8 #1s in a row, because enough stations played "Lucky Strike" to get it to #32, breaking the streak between "Love Somebody" and "Maps".

Thanks, but Mediabase does not list them on their chart. They usually include the featured artists, but not this time. I just follow what they publish.

"3 Nights" is technically to recurrent right?

Also when was the last time a Christmas song hit top 40 on HAC?

Since the recurrent rules aren't in effect, it technically wasn't removed to recurrent. However, it would have been if they were in effect.

Last year, Katy Perry spent 1 week on the chart at #39 with "Cozy Little Christmas".
