SIX-CESS: Another title with an acronym makes an historic trip to No. 1 on Dance/Club Play Songs.
Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" rises 2-1 on the tally to become the sixth leading song from her album "Teenage Dream."
Here is a recap of Perry's six-pack of No. 1s from the set:
"California Gurls," featuring Snoop Dogg, Aug. 21, 2010
"Teenage Dream," Oct. 16, 2010
"Peacock," Dec. 4, 2010
"Firework," Jan. 22, 2011
"E.T.," April 23, 2011
"Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)," July 16, 2011
"Teenage Dream" is just the third album to yield six No. 1 singles since Dance/Club Play Songs launched as a national survey the week of Aug. 21, 1976. Beyonce's "I Am...Sasha Fierce" was the first such set (2009-10) and Kristine W's "The Power of Music" became the second only four weeks ago, when "Fade" reached the summit. The song followed "The Boss" (2008), "Never," "Love Is the Look," "Be Alright" (2009) and the title cut (2010) to the top spot.
("Power" also includes Tony Moran's 2007 No. 1 "Walk Away," on which Kristine W guests).
