I think so, God I'm so lazy, I'm searching in 1992 and I still don't find anything, after 2 decades, Alternative being BACK by a female

Oh, I forgot. How about female alternative?

I just had a quick look at the list of #1s and didn't see any other alternative female #1s since "Nothing Compares 2 U" by Sinead O'Connor in April of 1990.

How is Adele alternative? And fun. are a pure pop band. Might give you Gotye, though.

She is now the only New Zealand artist to hit the top of Billboard's Hot 100 list as a lead act. Male or female. Solo or group

OMC's song How Bizarre made number one on the Mainstream Top 40 chart in 1997.

However, it did not make number one on the Hot 100 because it was never released as a retail single.

"We Are Young" did hit number one on Alternative, though. So did "Some Nights" for that matter.

But yeah, I wouldn't call Adele alternative

How did she manage this when her sales and fairly close to Katy and her airplay is almost half of what Katy is doing.

Royals sold 55k more than Roar this week. How is that close?

What's the next highest NZ's ever been?

[Tekken_Guy]

Well, it looks like it's time for my hot 100 questions!
-Is "Royals" staying at #1 for next week, or does another song have a shot at dethroning it?
-Will "The Fox" enter the top 5 next week?
-Can "Dark Horse" and/or "Walking On Air" go top 10 next week?
-Will "Baby Blue" re-enter the Hot 100?
-Will "Work Bitch" go top 10 next week?

[Rico Shameless v2]

Has Paul not updated?

-For sure, nothing is in it's way right now.
-Unless it gets a sudden surge in streams this week, I don't think it's likely. It didn't really increase much from last week.
-WOA will probably debut somewhere in the 11-15 region if its sales are similar to DH's opening week (194,000). DH will probably remain somewhere in the 15-25 region.
-Not looking likely since it's already starting to fall in sales.
-It's likely that she can enter if her video streams keep up. I think she will have more points than she did in her first week when she debuted at #12.

Yuck. Congrats I guess but ugh, Royals is terrible.
