Yep, amazing work umich, no doubts But I keep thinking this should be MALE like the lead artist of the song is a male, that's more when we're talking about "male singles"

Bruno Mars not being in any list and yet notching 5 #1 songs and his debut album currently being a strong-selling catalog album. Proof that it's not all about debut sales.

"The album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling approximately 284,000 units in its first week, which due to a premature release by retailers and street-date violations, counted only a day and a half of sales.[2] The album sold 1,322,000 copies the following week, where it registered a full week of sales"
