I thought Billboard charts went out on Thursday. That's probably why they are proclaiming the news.

By the way, I'm not getting the love for the new Pink song. She's done much, much better than that one. I was tired of it weeks ago.

Per billboard.com today - ROB RULES: Already the only male artist with multiple No. 1s on the Adult Top 40 airplay chart, viewable at billboard.biz, Rob Thomas collects his third leader, as "Her Diamonds" shines 3-1. He previously held sway as a guest on Santana's "Smooth," which spent a format-record 25 weeks on top in 1999-2000 and with "Lonely No More," No. 1 for 10 weeks in 2005. With the coronation, Thomas ties Pink for most No. 1s by a solo artist. Here the acts with three or more No. 1s in the chart's 13-year history. Thomas appears on the list additionally as frontman of Matchbox Twenty: 5, Nickelback 4, Matchbox Twenty 3, Daughtry 3, Goo Goo Dolls 3, Pink 3, Santana 3, Rob Thomas www.billboard.com/#/col...mas-1003998678.storyDoes this mean he doesn't have to finish at #1 on Sunday to keep this record? I'm sure the record label will promote it as a #1 song but will Billboard permanently show it as a #1 song if it isn't on Sunday (which it may be)? I'm just curious how this works. <<< Happy Rob fan! Great news! Surprised John Mayer wasn't on that list. Just always thought he had a lot of hits. Never to #1 though?

By the way, I meant the singles charts, not the Billboard 200. But I'm not sure if I'm right.

"Your Body Is A Wonderland" and "Waiting On The World To Change" both peaked at #2 I believe. Sincerely, Noah Eaton

I'll ask again. Does anyone know the three stations on the HotAC panel that haven't added this song yet? I'm really curious. Thanks in advance if anyone knows.

I find it most fascinating how Rob Thomas is able to keep making a deep impression on the chart.
Look at the number of stations playing "Her Diamonds" compared to all the singles surrounding it on the chart. Even the #23 and #24 tracks have about 2/3 of the format already backing them, while Rob Thomas is at #16 with only 1/3 of the format backing him (or 12 stations).
If only the rest of the format would still give him love, he would remain a chart-topping champion here.
Sincerely, Noah Eaton
