Digital Charts: The Grammy's & Whitney

It'd normally be a post-Grammy frenzy but this past week was marked by the sad news and posterior bittersweet chart comeback of a true legend and one of the greatest female vocalists in contemporary music. Much like with the passing of other musicians including Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse or Etta James, the unexpected death of Whitney Houston has the music world going back to her biggest and most notorious hit songs, which nowadays represents a form of homage to an artist's legacy. So it comes to no surprise that this week's Digital Songs chart is led by one of her most memorable hit songs, I Will Always Love You, which is this week's most downloaded song worldwide according to iTunes. But that's just one of several songs she's being remembered by. The highest new entry this week is I Have Nothing (#17), followed by Greatest Love Of All (#19), Saving All My Love (#29), One Moment In Time (#31), Where Do Broken Hearts Go (#94) and All At Once (#98). Grammy-wise, it was a good week for Katy Perry and her new single Part Of Me entering at #30, followed by Foo Fighters with Walk coming at #55 and Chris Brown's Turn Up The Music at #59. See more...

Not surprisingly, Adele's big night at the Grammy's makes her album 21 take the #1 spot once again while her first album 19 re-enters the top ten at #9. Bon Iver see their self-titled set re-enter at #61 as does Skrillex with Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites re-entering at #86. And there's more Whitney Houston here with two of her compilations, The Ultimate Collection and Greatest Hits, sitting at #3 and #4 respectively, while her last studio album, I Look To You, re-enters the top 100 at #45.

US Charts: Katy Perry Joins an Elite List

From Billboard.com:

Katy Perry's historic fifth No. 1 on the Hot 100 from her "Teenage Dream" album makes her one of only seven artists in the history of the Hot 100 to put together a string of five or more consecutive chart-toppers, placing her in esteemed company that includes Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey.

"Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" is the fifth No. 1 in a row from Perry's "Teenage Dream" album, as Billboard.biz reported. The run began with "California Gurls" and continued with the title track, "Firework" and "E.T."

It's not as rare as collecting five No. 1s from one album, but it's still an infrequent accomplishment for any artist to have five or more consecutive singles reach the top of the Hot 100. Elvis Presley did it with "A Big Hunk o' Love," "Stuck on You," "It's Now or Never," "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" and "Surrender," between 1959-1961. The first group to rack up five No. 1s in a row on the Hot 100 was the Supremes. In 1964-65, the Motown trio scored with "Where Did Our Love Go," "Baby Love," "Come See About Me," "Stop! In the Name of Love" and "Back in My Arms Again."

The Beatles had six consecutive No. 1s between 1964-1966 with "I Feel Fine," "Eight Days a Week," "Ticket to Ride," "Help!," "Yesterday" and "We Can Work It Out" although, like Presley, all of those singles had flip sides that either charted on the main Hot 100 or the Bubbling Under tally.

In 1977, the Bee Gees also started a run of six consecutive No. 1s that ran through 1979, starting with three titles from the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack: "How Deep Is Your Love," "Stayin' Alive" and "Night Fever." This trio was followed directly by another hat trick of No. 1s: "Too Much Heaven," "Tragedy" and "Love You Inside Out," all from the "Spirits Having Flown" LP.

Whitney Houston's second Arista single, "Saving All My Love for You," started a run of seven consecutive No. 1s for her that ran from 1985-1988 and included "How Will I Know," "Greatest Love of All," "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)," "Didn't We Almost Have It All," "So Emotional" and "Where Do Broken Hearts Go." This accomplishment requires an asterisk, as Arista released a single, "Thinking About You" between "Saving All My Love for You" and "How Will I Know," but it was only promoted to R&B radio, not pop radio. It peaked at No. 10 on Billboard's R&B singles chart and never appeared on the Hot 100.

As previously reported, Michael Jackson is the only other artist to have five No. 1s on the Hot 100 from one album. In 1987-88, Jackson had five consecutive chart-toppers from "Bad": "I Just Can't Stop Loving You," "Bad," "The Way You Make Me Feel," "Man in the Mirror" and "Dirty Diana."

Mariah Carey made her Hot 100 debut in June 1990 with "Vision of Love," which was the first of five No. 1s in a row, including "Love Takes Time," "Someday," "I Don't Wanna Cry" and "Emotions." She had another run of five No. 1s from 1995 to 1998 with "Fantasy," "One Sweet Day," "Always Be My Baby," "Honey" and "My All." Carey's first run of five No. 1s in a row carries an additional unique distinction: they were her first five titles to chart on the Hot 100.

"Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" is the 53rd No. 1 single on the Capitol label in the 53-year history of the Hot 100 and the sixth No. 1 on the Hollywood-based label for Perry, more than any other Capitol act has accumulated except for the Beatles (with 13).

Perry has amassed her six No. 1s in three years and one week, counting back to July 5, 2008, the date on the chart when "I Kissed a Girl" moved into first place. "I Kissed a Girl" was Perry's only chart-topper from her first Capitol album, "One of the Boys."

All About Adele

From Billboard.com:

As Adele spends a seventh week atop the Billboard 200 with her sophomore set "21," the album's lead single, "Rolling in the Deep," becomes the singer/songwriter's first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1.

(As for the title's meaning, Adele describes it as an "adaptation of a kind of slang, slur phrase in the UK called 'roll deep,' which means to ... always have someone that has your back, and you're never on your own. I thought that's what I was always going to have, and, um, it ended up not being the case").

Since the Hot 100 adopted Nielsen BDS and SoundScan airplay and sales data, respectively, the week of Nov. 30, 1991 (after the Billboard 200 had converted to SoundScan-fueled figures in the May 25, 1991, issue), Adele is the 14th woman to command each chart simultaneously. (The fairer sex wins bragging rights: 12 solo males have accomplished the feat in that span).

Among the exclusive club, Whitney Houston has spent the most weeks (12) concurrently in charge of each chart, with "I Will Always Love You" from "The Bodyguard" (Dec. 12, 1992-Feb. 27, 1993), while Mariah Carey (three) and Janet Jackson (two) are the only artists to so doubly dominate with multiple albums.

Carey is also the only woman in that stretch to simultaneously rule the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 with two singles from the same set; "Fantasy" and "One Sweet Day," with Boyz II Men, each fronted the Hot 100 while "Daydream" dominated the Billboard 200.

Here is a look at the who's-who of female stars who have topped the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 in the same week in the charts' Nielsen data eras:

Artist, Billboard 200 No. 1, Hot 100 No. 1(s), Year(s)

Avril Lavigne, "The Best Damn Thing," "Girlfriend," 2007
Nelly Furtado, "Loose," "Promiscuous" (featuring Timbaland), 2006
Mariah Carey, "The Emancipation of Mimi," "We Belong Together," 2005
Beyonce, "Dangerously in Love," "Crazy in Love" (featuring Jay-Z), 2003
Ashanti, "Ashanti," "Foolish," 2002
Jennifer Lopez, "J to Tha L-O! The Remixes," "Ain't It Funny" (featuring Ja Rule), 2002
Janet Jackson, "All for You," "All for You," 2001
Madonna, "Music," "Music," 2000
Britney Spears, "...Baby One More Time," ...Baby One More Time," 1999

Whitney Houston, "The Bodyguard" (soundtrack), "I Will Always Love You," 1992-93

Katy Perry & Kanye West › E.T.

I've been raving about the Benny Benassi remix for a while now, but just found out that Katy Perry's new single E.T. (now with a Kanye West version) has scored the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100. Really? I feel that came out of nowhere. Anyway, this is already her fourth chart-topper from her album Teenage Dream in the United States following California Gurls with Snoop Dogg, Teenage Dream and Firework. The feat has also put her in some pretty good company since it's the first album since Usher's Confessions - from 2004 - to spawn four #1 singles and the first female to do it since Mariah Carey's eponymous debut album in 1990-91. Other artists' albums that accomplished this Billboard Hot 100 milestone include Whitney Houston's Whitney, George Michael's Faith, Paula Abdul's Forever Your Girl and Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814. Way to go Ms. Perry!

Another treat? Well, the music video is already out and it's very sci-fi and very different to her previous ones, which gives it bonus points on my list. Directed by Floria Sigismondi.
