Talk:Dance Club Songs

message: WHO keeps removing Crystal Waters and Kim English from the list of artists with the most number 1 dance songs?! God - the information is accurate, I say! Just look on this site, even. Crystal has 7, Kim has had 6. Maybe it's because there could be other artists with those numbers? I'm just trying to make the list of artists an even 10, because currently it only goes to list 8 artists.
Update: And now I realize that we're missing the artists at number 4 & 5, whoever they are. This list is a little odd. : / Madonna definately does have the number one spot, though.
:The rationale is that the list is too long.  The list contains 9 artists, and if those who had 7 number ones were included, it would jump up to 13 (or 14, I'm not sure).  In addition, your edits are incomplete, because several artists have had 7 number ones.  4 and 5 are not missing, because it's a three-way tie at 3rd.  Obviously any artist coming after that would be in 6th, not 4th.  John5008 | talk to me 05:03, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I keep removing those names, exactly for the reasons John5008 gives above.  I explained my reverts in the edit summaries.  The list is 9 acts long and there are at least 4 or 5 acts who have seven number ones, much less expanding the list even further to those who have six.  What is there now is more than enough.  You can't just add only one additional artist to make it an even 10 because there are too many artists with seven number ones. -- eo 13:24, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Beyonce's Accurate # of Hits!! 

message: I've beefed up the final section of this article with appropriate sources.  I'm having some trouble finding specific Billboard articles confirming 13 number-ones each for Beyoncé and Whitney Houston.  Beyoncé's number ones are actually shown right above in the comment prior to this one.  When "Telephone" hit number-one, a ChartBeat article mentioned that she and Rihanna have been flip-flopping at #1, but it did not specifically say it was Beyoncé's thirteenth.  In Whitney's case, her Dance chart history on Billboard.com only shows 11 of the 13, which is incredibly frustrating.  I can only guess that statistics get a little wonky when travelling back into the 1990s and 1980s and there is some stuff missing.  Every so often a ChartBeat article will do a tally or review of artists with the most #1s or women with the most #1s (or something along those lines), but it's very tedious to comb through hundreds of ChartBeat and Ask Billboard columns.  If anyone can locate one or both of them, then thank you in advance!  I'll keep searching, in the meantime. - eo (talk) 18:39, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Donna Summer does not have 16 Billboard #1's! 

message: I was reading the "Ask Billboard" column here (under the heading LOVE FOR 'LOVE') and it mentions that, as of this week, the chart is now officially called Hot Dance Club Songs instead of Hot Dance Club Play. But when I went to view the actual chart, it still said Hot Dance Club Play at the top of the page. Does anyone know if this slight name change has already happened, or if it's about to? And if so, will this article be renamed? I know I've wiki-linked a bunch of songs to this page, so maybe a bot could come along and fix them all, assuming what I read is accurate.

replies: text: Well, their website(s) still show the former names, but my June 20 print edition has all of the new chart names, including "Hot Dance Club Songs".  I think its safe to change the article's name.  I'm-a gonna do it now. - eo (talk) 10:44, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Cool. I noticed the same name still being used on the online chart earlier today as well, maybe they just have to reconfigure the website. I can't tell you how long it's been since I actually picked up a print edition of the magazine! If it was changed over in the print version, that seems conclusive. By the way, I started a thread on Categories for discussion about renaming "Club Play #1s" to "Club Songs #1s" here, which I assume would be right. Zephyrnthesky (talk) 19:59, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: When ya subscribe to .biz you automatically get the print edition too :-) ....otherwise I wouldn't bother with it.

message: The article doesn't really make it clear what the actual chart names were throughout its history. At least one name is missing: Hot Dance Music Club Play (which I just spotted in a 1991 issue on Google Books). So, in what years was it called each name?

thread_title:  Madonna's #1 

message: There seems to be a mistake in the text. You can read that Kristine W holds the record for the longest streak of uninterrupted chart-toppers. Her streak of 9 consecutive no 1:s is impressive, but was beat by Madonna's streak of 18 chart-toppers; starting with "Nothing really matters" in 1999. Then all her singles reached the no 1 spot, up to "Give it 2 me" in 2008. Her following single, "Miles away", stopped at no 2.

message: "With Summer's passing, Madonna becomes the only living active artist to continue charting, as each of her singles have reached the top ten in her four-decade run from 1982 to the present."
This sentence doesn't make sense. There are obviously other living, active artists who will continue to chart. Is there some other distinction here that wasn't properly articulated, or does this need to be removed entirely?

replies: text: I've left a comment on an article on a Billboard article (see bottom of page) , although I doubt very much they will officially respond... it appears that Billboard is now counting Pitbull as a featured artist on 2009's "Now I'm That Bitch", even though it charted as a Livvi-Franc-only song: .  That said, do we revise List of number-one dance singles of 2009 (U.S.) to add his name, thus aligning Wikipedia's Pitbull total (12) with Billboard (13)?

message: On the July 8th, 2017 issue of Dance Club Songs, "Bon Appetit" lost its bullet and peaked at #28. The following week, it fell to #33 while follow-up single "Swish Swish" rose to #3. This ended her streak of number ones at 17. If "Swish Swish" hits #1, then she will have a new streak starting, but the long running streak has come to an end. I have changed the entry in the chart several times, but someone keeps erasing this. If you're a Katy Perry fan, I'm sorry, but you need to face the facts.
http://www.billboard.com/charts/dance-club-play-songs
: Thanks for your post. If you look at June 17, "Bon Appetit" debuted at number 49, and "Swish Swish" at 37. The latter debuted higher than the former. Yes, "Bon Appetit" has tanked and reached a remarkably low peak on the chart for a Perry song, but "Swish Swish" has mad massive gains each week for 4 weeks, and is likely to be number-one next week, or the week after, depending on whether or not Ed Sheeran's "Castle on the Hill" peaks at number one next week. That would mean that "Swish Swish" will become her 18th consecutive song, but also the end of her streak, as "Bon Appetit" is not climbing anymore, and that is why I've reverted you, not only because you can't provide a source to your claim, but it is actually wrong. Yes, "Bon Appetit" will break the streak, but it won't end with "Chained to the Rhythm" like you were suggesting. I'm not a Perry fan, but I do use fact, sourced ones, not made up ones.  — Calvin999  08:38, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
