We Belong Together blocked Shake It Off from hitting #1 for 7 weeks!!!!!!!
And then it was going to hit number one in September, but the same week Kanye West performed Gold Digger at the VMAs and it jumped to number one! Shake It Off was once again blocked.
Lots of female rappers and female country singers have peaked at #2.
"How Do I Live" blocked by "I'll Be Missing You"
"You're Still the One" blocked by "The Boy Is Mine" and "Too Close"
"Breathe" blocked by "Maria Maria".
"Let Me Blow Ya Mind" blocked by "Lady Marmalade"
"Gangsta Lovin'" blocked by "Dilemma"
"Work It" blocked by "Lose Yourself"
"Magic Stick" blocked by "Crazy In Love"
"You Belong With Me" blocked by "I Gotta Feeling"
"Today Was a Fairytale" blocked by "Tik Tok"
"Need You Now" blocked by "Break Your Heart" and "Rude Boy"
lady gaga's judas ,the edge of glory robbed/blocked of the number 1 spot debut by Gaga herself releasing judas too early making it debut with few sales rather than a complete full week sale and releasing hair and TEOG together splitting sales plus making it a promoting single
. :cry: :tears:
One of the today's threads inspired me to make a new one. Can we discuss about SMASH hits that didn't go #1 because of a block?
I can name few :
Bad Romance #2 => TiK ToK
Since U Been Gone #2 = > Candy Shop
Beautiful #2 = > ?
Airplanes #2 cos of?
Party in The USA #2 = > Britney's 3 and Down by Jay Sean
I thought Bad Romance couldn't reach number one because of Empire State Of Mind (the one with Jay-Z and Alicia Keys)??
And I think You Belong With Me couldn't reach number one either because of Boom Boom Pow.
