Probably!
Maybe it hit at just the right time where everything else sucked.
Blinding Lights
Save Your Tears
Dynamite
Fake Love
Get Lucky
I feel like a BTS song has to be thereā¦the only one I know is Butter, so Iāll say that.

That reminds me: could the Butthole Surfers have one of the missing entries?
While weāre on the subject, I was in the car yesterday and a song came on that I immediately recognized. But I was absolutely stunned to see that it was called Dizz Knee Land, not Disneyland.
Note: This is a pleasant song, but not a 10-week Billboard #1.
Of course, Dynamite totally slipped out of my head. That has to be there.
I hate even guessing this
Who let the dogs out
Both Dynamites are incorrect. BTSās was only #1 for 3 weeks, and Taioās capped out at #2.
Butter appears to be the BTS song we were looking for, #42. Props @TrueNorth32
Nothing else since CMās last post is correct.

Blame CM for overlooking that one, not me. It was posted when he was still evaluating things, so I didnāt bother to check it. I was acknowledging TNās Butter selection.

Didnāt even make the top 10
Wasnāt there long enough, and doesnāt have a slot on the list for 2011.
If #1 is Boone I want partial credit for guessing coonskin cap related.

One Dance
Guessed Work and was wrong. One Dance possible, as CM said there was at least one more shitty Drake song.

I probably listen to less music than anyone here, so itās hard to tell how surprised I should be, but this is an interesting list. Would never have guessed that Old Town Road was the GOAT of this category.
The remaining useful information we have is that #9 is very likely a love ballad from a Black woman in 1996-7. #14 and #37 are people already on the list. #40 is āinternationalā enough that someone who didnāt know Adele wasnāt American knew they werenāt American. All remaining gaps are likely artists that only appear once on the list.
No Perry, Gaga, Swift, Timberlake
