Kelly Clarkson has clinched having the top two singles of 2005; Ms. Carey's song missed ONE-QQUARTER of the Mediabase/R&R chart year.
WBT will be #3, followed by Ciara, Green Day and Mario.
As of the end of November BTHE had a 2,483 spin lead over WBT for #2; even if you deduct the spins for both singles from 11-27/11-30 (the first 4 days of the 2006 Mediabse/R&R chart year), that 4-day period was not NEARLY enough for WBT to overtake BTHE.

Still, BTHE has been getting more plays than WBT in the last few weeks. Even if the last few days of the month (that R&R won't count) are subtracted, Kelly should still win out in the end, if only by a very narrow margin.

I know we have been talking about all of the examples for artists with two singles in the top 10 ( and Paula with three), but Kelly must have had one of the most dominant years in pop history. Even the recent greats - Usher, Christina, Britney etc. - haven't had so many singles in one year with so much airplay. I mean, Breakaway and Because of You have been pretty ridiculous as well.

Here are my revised year end top 40 projections using the Mediabase YTD standings through the end of November and adding in last December's plays where applicable. This isn't the "official" R&R rankings, but it should be pretty darn close.

Keep in mind that BB'c chart methodology has been altered numerous times over the years, to the point where comparing any of Ms. Clarkson's noteworthy chart achievements this year to any similar episodes which took place prior to the introduction of Soundscan and the debut of the Hot AC/Adult Top 40 Charts.
It is MUCH easier for a song to soar up the charts and/or debut in the top 20 than it used to be.
Obviously, since the reporting panel is MUCH smaller these days there are some records that will never be broken, such as most 1st week adds, or most consecutive weeks with at least one song in the top 40.

Cerebro, thanks for updating the numbers!
Marv, I'm really looking forward to seeing the listing in R&R's issue on Thursday!

ME TOO!!!!!
Regarding the issue of an artist having two singles in the year-end top 10, didn't Queen turn the trick in 1980 with 'Another One Bites The Dust' and 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love'?
I believe Blondie's 'Call Me' was #1 for that year (at least in BB), but I'm not sure about R&R.

"Call Me" was also #1 for the year in R&R. As for Queen placing two singles in the Top Ten, they didn't do it on R&R or Billboard. In R&R, "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" was in the Top Ten at number 8, but "Another One Bites The Dust" came in at #20. In Billboard, Queen only had one song on the entire Hot 100 of 1980, "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" at number six. "Another One Bites The Dust" hit the chart too late in the year to gain enough points to chart on the year-ender (the time frame back then was November 1 of the previous year through October 31 of the current year - whatever! ) The song did, however, gain enough points to place on the 1981 chart, at a disappointing number 65. I believe that both of Queen's songs may have placed in the Top 10 on American Top 40's Top 100 of 1980, since they included a song's entire chart run, including projected points for songs that were still on the chart but on the way down at the end of the year. Billboard even used this practice in the mid to late 1980s, but abandoned it by 1990.

"Crazy Little Thing Called Love" was #6, but "Another One Bites The Dust" was only #15. I'm guessing that their projection for the rest of the song's chart run didn't count on it spending so long in the Top Ten (it had an unusual run after falling from #1), otherwise it would've certainly placed higher.

So. Ms. Clarkson joins the Bee Gees and the Beatles (1964) and possibly Elvis.
WOW!!!!!!!

The King had the top 2 songs of 1956 with "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Don't Be Cruel." Of course, the Elvis and Beatles cases are from Billboard as R&R didn't exist until the fall of 1973. Nonetheless, Kelly's in good company.

Would you happen to what date 'Another One Bites The Dust' hit #1?
I also know that the eighties were much different from the nineties in that eight of that decade's top ten singles hit #1 within one SUPERB 26-month period (April 1981 to June 1983), whereas the top ten singles of the nineties (as well as the sixities and seventies) were spread out througout those entire decades.

Would you happen to what date 'Another One Bites The Dust' hit #1? Began a three-week run at the top on 10/4/80 in Billboard (peaked at #2 in R&R on their equivalent date, 9/26/80)

Such chart jumps weren't very out of the ordinary back then, though. I believe "Boulevard" by Jackson Browne moved 7-4-9 and "Into The Night" by Benny Mardones had a top ten run of 9-5-10. Just goes to show how radio stations weren't as afraid to play new music as they are now.

That's what happens when these corporations take over the airwaves; recurrents are KILLED at TONS of formats (Country/CHR-Pop/Hot AC), and then these same execs wonder why the new Jack-FM format has decapitated LOTS of Oldies and Hot AC stations nationwide, and the 25-54 numbers for Jack-FM stations are soaring in market after market.

Aren't most of the Top 40 stations out there leaning on their biggest reccurents (Complicated/When I'm Gone/Overn And Over/Yeah!!!) of the past 2-3 years a LOT as opposed to trying to break new music and artists?

Does Kelly have the top 2 overall songs of 05 or is this just the pop chart.
