George Strait celebrates an AMAZING musical achievement
« on: October 24, 2004, 10:46:48 PM »
So, George Strait is this big country singer (second picture below) who's been singing about 20 years now, and has an uncanny ability to pick out hit songs, record them, and get #1 singles from it.  Well... about a year ago, a little more, he caught this amazing milestone, his 50th! #1 single.  That's a record, nobody else comes close.  This is on the country charts, though, not the pop charts.  Anyways, 50 fucking number 1 singles, incredible.  Get this.

He puts out an album last week, called "50 Number Ones" with ALL of the hits on it, a double CD.  The first song on the album is a new song, called "I hate Everything".......... and this week, it went #1.  So, he has an album, sitting on the top of the billboard charts right now, called "50 Number Ones", and all 51! Tracks on the album are #1 songs.  Incredible.

3 Cheers for him

note: I like making posts like this in threads I don't give a shit about, so that I can reach 500 posts and download music in the hook-up section. At the rate I'm going, I'll be there soon.  8)

Elvis has the most with 18, in the US pop charts. 

Hearbreak Hotel, I Want You, I Need You, I Love You, Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, Love Me Tender, Too Much, All Shock Up, Teddy Bear, Jailhouse Rock, Don't, Hard Headed Woman, A Big Hunk O' Love, Stuck On You, It's Now Or Never, Are You Lonesome Tonight, Surrender, Good Luck Charm, and Suspicious Minds.
   
I'm not sure if the A Little Less Conversation remix counts. If it does then he has 19.

I can't imagine anyone matching that, ever.
