Having studied the Billboard Charts for over 20 years now (I have most of Joel Whitburn's books on charted records), I can tell you that it is unprecedented for a number one single to drop off the charts completely two weeks later. Usually when a record charts, it takes about 3/4 the time to fall off the charts that it did to climb the charts. So if a song took 12 weeks to reach number one, it will likely take 8 weeks to fall off the charts. And it will gradually fall, that is it will drop maybe to number 2, then 7, 11, 20, 37, 54, 71, 95 and then off.

The closest situation to this that I can remember was when the Milli Vanilli scandal hit. Their songs stopped getting airplay overnight. I'll have to do some research when I get home and see if they had any charted records at the time.

As for the album remaining at number one, unless things have changed, the positions are based solely on sales through point-of-sale "SOUNDSCAN" technology and there is a lagtime of a couple weeks. So we may see different results next week.

So do you cancel the tour? How do you walk up on stage after all this? Have you ever had to look into someones eyes after you have betrayed them? (Clinton was the only person I have ever seen do it well)

as the saying goes, birds of a feather, Natalie Maines spoke for all of them. They must go down together!

Perhaps the VICHY CHICKS could do a French version called "Surrenderin Soldier" and top the Belgian and French charts for a while.

To be fair, it should be noted that the country singles chart is notorious for its Jell-O-like consistency; it's quite rare for a song to stay at #1 for more than a week or so, and songs drop off very quickly compared to the top 40 chart once they hits their peak. (Why this is, I have no idea.) But for a song to go from #1 to FALLING OFF THE CHART COMPLETELY in just two weeks is pretty much unheard of.

EAT IT, CHICKS!
