Columbia then released the song with both superstars. In just six chart weeks, it became the third Hot No. Don't Know Much Linda Ronstadt feat. Aaron Neville Though Ronstadt racked eight Hot top 10s between and , she didn't reappear in the top tier until with the James Ingram duet "Somewhere Out There" No.
This first single not only reached No. The latter already had some hits under her belt -- including the No. It is the only father-daughter duet to reach the top of the Hot , where it spent four weeks at the top. The song is perhaps best remembered for its video featuring the animated MC Skat Kat, voiced by the track's featured act, the Wild Pair. All the more impressive, then, that Jay-Z and Keys ruled the Hot for five weeks with their modern Gotham theme. A Keys solo piano version reached No.
Our biased favorite line from the song? Jay-Z's astute observation, "now I live on Billboard"! As the lead single from her Timbaland-produced "Loose" album in , the sexy, thumpy number was a far cry from the more earnest, quirky singles of her first two albums -- including "I'm Like a Bird" and "Turn Off The Light.
It was the first of two toppers from "Loose" -- she later returned with "Say It Right. The song has also inspired several cover versions, including one by rock band Faith No More, who performed it during their reunion tour, and German star David Hasselhoff, who sung it at the fall of the Berlin Wall in The movie is also remembered for its hit soundtrack, which yielded two Hot No. The song became Martin's only topper and the fourth of Collins' seven solo leaders.
Interestingly, the two singers hadn't met until well after the song was recorded and was scaling the chart -- as the single was put together on different coasts in different studios. John's current album?
Add that this song was written by the Bee Gees and it's no surprise that it topped the Hot for two weeks, as well as Country Songs and Adult Contemporary.
This duet marked the second of her five No. Paul capped the Hot once before this leader, with "Get Busy" three weeks, , and once after, with "Temperature" one week, Little wonder, then, that it rocketed to No. Lo, with assistance from Ja Rule, took to No.
The track marks her first appearance on Billboard's Dance Airplay chart where it debuted last week at No. So for Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland, her first single away from the group was an event. An event that could either turn into a footnote or a smash. Everyone could imagine Kenny and Dolly rowing off into the sunset together. As listeners everywhere daydreamed about being whisked away from their boring jobs by attractive suitors, the single shot to No. The single spent a whopping nine weeks atop the charts—and for good reason.
Writing on assignment for the Brooke Shields film Endless Love , Lionel Richie outdid himself with a gorgeous melody and tender set of lyrics. Then he and Diana Ross sang the sucker like a still-smitten married couple enjoying a candlelight dinner away from the kids. Former Chicago frontman and unrepentant balladeer Peter Cetera joined forces with then-unknown Contemporary Christian artist Amy Grant for this chart-topper.
Mary J. Blige jumped on the remix. Her love interest, Danny John Travolta , naturally finds this electrifying. But the message driving this chart-topping mega-seller is that Danny also needs to compromise a little and clean up his act. Travolta and Newton-John make this romantic negotiation sound like a giddy spin around the Tilt-A-Whirl.
Years beyond his greatest successes with The Righteous Brothers , a bassy Bill Medley rides with Warnes over a bubbly soft-rock beat. The result is a perennial wedding-reception dance-floor filler-upper.
Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville meet at an emotional crossroads on this smash. But they know they love each other, and that might be enough to see them through. Search WTTW:. Playlist Culture. Black History Month. Thanks to our sponsors:.
