Rick's Biggest #1 Hits From 2000 to Now, Part 2

[musicfanpete]

For what it's worth, here is part two of Rick's decade #1's chart. This is the same chart as last year, with six new songs replacing the six "droppers" from last year (see below). Good to see he got rid of that hideous Pitbull song at #39 and replaced it with a similarly named song by Savage Garden (whatever happened to them?!).

Anyway, I'm looking forward to an "old school" chart next week with lots of big movers and high debuts as Rick catches up from the two week break. Better than more or less rehashing this #1's chart year after year!

I think that the Savage Garden song had been #39 up through 2008, but they made an error last year and replaced it with Pitbull, which certainly wasn't a #1 HAC hit. Otherwise, it looks like they mostly got rid of early 00's hits.

Thank you for the update!

Although I'm surprised "Unwell" and "Wherever You Will Go" didn't rank in the Top 5.

I was thinking the same thing. Probably an error, of which they make many!

Again though, these songs are just thrown in a predetermined "random" order. That's why this is a pretty worthless chart as there is no real point to it. In other words, he can just play these songs without any number in front of them.

And although he says these are the biggest number one hits since 2000, maybe the lack of "Unwell" and "Wherever You Will Go" means this is a ten year rolling chart or something of that sort. Either way I will be glad to see the regular weekly chart come back next week, especially considering he plays many of these songs as Bonus Tracks anyway.

I was surprised to see How You Remind Me as one of the droppers. Songs like "Beautiful" by Akon and Check On It were much lesser HAC hits. Then again, it is Dees...
