Number One Hits

2 readers

As a hobby project, I thought of collecting an overview of number one hits here.

I'm mostly interested in the Billboard Hot 100 (started 04-08-1958), the UK Charts (started 14-11-1952) and the Dutch Top 40 (started 02-01-1965), so I'll post the number one hits from those charts.

I'll also try to add some statistics along with the hit video's.

I'll use Saturday's date for every week. UK Charts are dated on the Fridays, but the other charts are dated Saturdays.

Feel free to comment on the posts, but stay on-topic and follow this instance's rules.
