Have there ever been any #1s that didn't go recurrent? In the past decade or so?

"Thank U" by Alanis Morissette maybe? All the songs from the pre PPW era and through 1995 or 1996 would count in this category as I don't think there were recurrent rules used then at all. 1998: Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go" only spent 21 or 22 weeks on the chart. At that time, the recurrent rule was 26/25. |

Actually, the first recurrent rule used by R&R started in June, 1996. Didn't you mean to say songs from these two years wouldn't count? Because, since there were no recurrent rules before June 21, 1996, I don't think they should count. |

Well, since there were no recurrents, then a #1 song in 1995, for example, couldn't be a recurrent, right? ;) It's a matter of semantics. I understand that we shouldn't count songs before recurrent rules came into effect. ;) And yes, Thank U hit #1 in 1998. |
