Hot 100 Singles Sales

Information about Hot 100 Singles Sales

The Hot 100 Singles Sales (also known as Singles Sales) is a chart released weekly by Billboard magazine in the United States. It measures sales of commercial singles and is one of three component charts, along with the Hot 100 Airplay and the Hot Digital Songs, that determine the chart positions of singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Often, songs that become number one on this chart, do not even chart on the Hot 100.

With the introduction of The Pop 100, the Hot 100 Singles Sales chart information has been utilized for compiling both the Hot 100 and Pop 100 thus a recent slight name change to "Singles Sales" (to show its uses for both charts). However, the name is still in a transition period and it has not been confirmed if the change is permanent.

The longest run at number one on the Hot 100 Single Sales chart belongs to Bryan Adams's "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" which posted 17 weeks at number one in 1991.

Elton John has the record for most singles sold in a week, with 1.5 million copies of "Candle in the Wind 1997/Something about the Way You Look Tonight" sold the week of October 11, 1997.

Indie band Bright Eyes were the last band to have two songs occupy the top 2 spots, in 2004 with the singles "Lua" from the album I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning and "Take It Easy (Love Nothing)" from the album Digital Ash in a Digital Urn.
