Singles charting when someone dies doesn't happen too much, and they don't normally reach #1 when they do. "Memorial" singles tend to be a recently finished song that gets released after the artist's death.

I propose we give Neil Diamond's two weeks to Triumph, and push U2 up a bit so "New Year's Day" actually charts on New Year's Day. "Wanna Be Startin' Something" can be another week for either The Talking Heads or Don Henley

Sounds good to me. I was going to suggest before we finish up our year ends we out to profile some of the artists so we can know some #2s and other top 10/top 20 hits.

You can go right ahead and start 1983 whenever you're ready. I'm going to start work on '98-'04.

We're going to take a break to organize some stuff and then I'm cool with going until 2023. Fixed 1982, we we missing a week, so I gave it to Sexual Healing, hope no one minds.

DC Comics have always had trouble translating to the big screen, even flagships Superman and Batman have had straight up embarrassingly bad movies. You'd need better management of DC and Warner Bros in general before they could risk an IP that's not a sure fire success like Wonder Woman...

Fixed the mixing week, still waiting for another approval to ax Piano Man. Also, some of those Kylie songs can be top ten hits still. She's almost certainly going to be profiled. Then those songs can still be on Todd's worst list. I'm going to bump a few 1995 hits down to lower Top 40 hits...

January 1st 1982: "The Visitors" – ABBA January 8th, 1982: "Fries With That Shake" - The Bonkers feat. Billy Preston January 15th, 1982: "Sleepwalking" by Gerry Rafferty January 23rd, 1982: "Physical" - Olivia Newton-John January 30th 1982 - "Here is the News" - Electric Light Orchestra February...

Yeah, Kylie and Girls Generation definitely need to have their hits cut back. In return some of their hits can get longer chart time, but some stuff just straight up needs to be replaced. As for the Year Ends, we might end up editing those. When we do artist recaps we're certainly going to...

I just started 1982 a little bit ago. I'll gladly go to 1986.

You guys go right ahead and start, I'm all for it. I'd also appreciate some help compiling the rest of the lists for editing. If people could just claim a period of 4-5 years each we could easily finish the editing process with in a week.

I was totally planning a few things, and a sort of "Behind the Music" thing is one of them. I'd love to explain the dynamics of this timeline's Dio, for example.

It's possible the album does better and perhaps they release the version without the guitar (which is more popular) first instead of afterwards.

Alright, changed "Man Machine" to "Call Me" for 1980. Now for 1981. January 3rd, 1981: "Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Straits January 10th, 1981: "Don't Stand So Close to Me" by The Police January 17th, 1981: "The Tide is High" by Blondie January 24th, 1981: "Hungry Heart" - Bruce Springsteen...

January 5th, 1980: "Refugee" by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers January 12th, 1980: "Refugee" by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers January 19th, 1980: "Refugee" by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers January 26th, 1980: "Cars" by Gary Numan February 2nd, 1980: "Don't Fall in Love With a Dreamer" by...

I'm going to start compiling some years later tonight.

Whoever posted Brandy said that it kept it's original name, so that's resolved. There's already a couple years of butterflies, so Rhiannon can just come out earlier.

Don't Stop Til You Get Enough could be replaced with a week for Moonraker but it hardly needs to be. Artists replace themselves as #1 from time to time (Macklemore did it just last year). When we have all the lists done we can put them in finished timelines by the decade (meaning I could post...

All the proposed changes seem fine.

Oh, I meant that Do Ya should just be entirely replaced with the Bond single. That makes more sense to me, if a Bond single does well, it does really well.
