So what song holds the record for most weeks at #1? |
|
And I can't promise I won't go to bed before the answer is revealed!

by whoever did it. That song was annoying and seemed to be on the radio for far too long.
edit- actually, by that criteria (annoying and on radio too long) a lot of songs fit.
yeah, that's my cut-n-paste answer.

5. Once again, you're very, very close. |

I suspect you'll have the answer edited almost before I can finish typing this...

If it's Boyz II Men, doesn't that automatically make it a 4some thing?
Didn't they do a song with mariah Carey? Is that going to be the answer; wouldn't that be a 5-thing-some

11. OK: To be clear, it was a 5-something thing. |
|
Or, a duet between a group and a solo "artist".

But does he know the song title? I'll give him partial credit so far.

24. REALLY?! Holy shit, I'd never heard of that song.... |
|
I remember "End of the Road" being the standard bearer for that title back when I had enough time on my hands to give half a shit. Wasn't that the record holder for a few years?
Boyz II Men are far richer than they deserve to be, in any case.

29. Everybody deserves to make a comfortable living... |
|
But to become ludicrously wealthy by doing duets with Mariah Carey while wearing matching baseball caps and holding walking sticks for style purposes is just beyond the pale for me.

27. DING DING DING. You get the other part of the credit! |
|
It's amazing to me how few people even remember the "biggest single of all time" (not my words. Billboard's).
Guess it wasn't that big.

that still won't really help me; but it will probably help someone else, so thanks for the clarification.

Although Billboard doesn't count airplay at weddings.
