Wow, we have just as many #1's so far this year as we did for ALL of last year. That's pretty amazing.
On the one hand, it's great that we have more diversity on the chart than last year's disgusting runs but Daniel Powter and Beyonce released some really crappy songs and it sucks that they did well.
This is how it used to before the late 90s. It just goes to show that America is not a Hip-Hop dominated nation that foreigners thought we are. We're once again diverse. So suck is haters!
7 so far this year. Billboard doesn't count holdovers from the previous year. Of those 15 above, I'm familiar Blunt and West. The rest I haven't heard or don't know that I've heard. Kind of shows where the Hot 100 leans as far as their airplay samples.
That's whay I was about to say, DFAU doesn't count.

I know the answer, but is it wrong that I LIKE "Bad Day"?
bad day is the best song ever!!!!!!!!! Wow this year is going to be great. i love the fact we're really switching up. but hey if mig123 is right, Beyonce` will take song of they year if we continue on with a new #1 every week. Daniel will glue himself for 3 more weeks, hopefully more than that before a new #1 comes

(Presses the next track button) ** Nine weeks... oy.... '~' ** 50 Cent - Candy Shop (9x: March 5-April 30)

**Hated in the beginning, then it grew on me, and I learned how to spell bananas. Mariah Carey - We Belong Together (14x: June 4-June 25, July 9-September 10)
**Beautiful Song, One of the best songs I've ever heard from the female pop scene, will likely be in one of my weddings coming forth in a decade...and a half...* Carrie Underwood - Inside Your Heaven (1x: July 2) (should've been longer on top)
**I like this one, just a simple nice song.** Kanye West - Gold Digger (10x: September 17-November 19)
**Hated Kanye, but this song was a huge pep rally jam for me*** Chris Brown - Run It (5x: November 26-December 24)
**When I first heard this song, I had my doubts, but it has been huge at dances, hangouts and clubs I've been to.** Mariah Carey - Don't Forget About Us (1x [2005]: December 31)
**The first time I heard this song, I knew it was going to be a hit. Loll and behold, it did. **

Mariah Carey - Don't Forget About Us (1x [2006]: January 7)
**I'm suprised this one only had a two week streak** D4L - Laffy Taffy (1x: January 14)
**Great Beat, terrible/human-race degrading lyrics, likely contender for worst song 06'** Nelly - Grillz (2x: January 21-January 28)
**Everyone around me hated this one, I liked it, but not enough to buy Nelly's lazy attempt at a CD** Beyonce - Check On It (5x: February 4-March 4)
**Liked all the way back last December, but the song went on to be the most *****-ly played songs ever. Nonetheless, Beyonce made another huge hit.** James Blunt - You're Beautiful (1x: March 11)
**Meh...**
Ne-Yo - So Sick (2x: March 18-March 25)

**Very good...although the music video is generic.** Daniel Powter - Bad Day (1x: April 8) (amazingly, best #1 this year)
**Agrees^ Best #1 YET**
Let's face it. Beyonce's gonna have the song of the year at this rate and it will be a sad day in the music industry seeing a ***** take it. Daniel needs to spend like 5 weeks at #1 which I doubt
