#1 - West Side Story

The following Chart Entry should be removed from here: Billboard 70 - 13 weeks- May 1985. Since this is a 1985 entry it should be transferred to #1 (under Duets w/Kiri Te Kanawa & Carreras). In its place should be the entry Billboard 5 - 191 weeks - March 1958. This was probably listed under 'Original Casts'.

The Hot 200 charts we have only start in 1963 so we don't have the 1958 entries
