THO 100 for week ending February 27, 2010

The new THO 100 chart has been published and Lady GaGa breaks the record for most consecutive weeks at #1 with her smash "Bad Romance." The previous record of 15 weeks was shared by Cher's "Believe" (1999) and Madonna's "You'll See" (1995-1996). If you are sick of Miss GaGa, don't blame me... the THO 100 chart is based on personal charts found all over the web, including discussion groups and personal web sites. "Bad Romance" still has a healthy lead over #2 "Tik Tok," so another week or two at #1 is not unlikely. It is GaGa's third number one song, following "Just Dance" and "Poker Face." THO has a poll to vote on the best Lady GaGa songs, and "Bad Romance" had an early lead, not surprisingly.

THO 100 Update for the week ending January 23, 2010

Since the TopHitsOnline chart began seventeen years ago, there have only been 10 songs to stay at #1 longer than 10 weeks. Lady GaGa's current #1, "Bad Romance" is one of them. This week the song holds off hits from Ke$ha and Owl City to remain on top. "Romance" still has a large point lead, which means that the all-time THO record of 15 weeks at #1 is in jeopardy. That record is held by Cher with her hit "Believe" (1999) and Madonna with "You'll See" (1995-1996). Madonna's "HungUp" is the most recent song to spend more than ten weeks at #1, in 2005-2006. On the current chart, GaGa's "Telephone" moves back into the top 10 as does Alicia Keys' "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart." "Replay" by Iyaz has the chart's largest point gain.
