Is there something wrong with'Germany Decade chart?'Another in Paradise' was number 1 for 10 weeks in Germany,and it only ranked number 195?

Decade charts and year charts always ignore hits that across two years.Isthere any way you can cope with it.

If points are counted between arbitrary boundaries then items that fall between them will always miss out. Unfortunately there is no easy way to get round this. We could list top songs from, for example 1985-1994 but then songs released in 1984 and 1994 would lose out.

On the chart2000 site we take a different approach to address exactly this issue, but the data before 2000 is not detailed enough to do this for earlier

another day in paradise

But in the section where you say 'Songs that were number 1 in the most charts.This is a list of the songs that reached number 1 in the highest number of charts'. You mention there that it was number one in 14 countries?

No it was number one in 14 charts, not countries. Some countries like the USA have multiple charts (Billboard, Cashbox etc)

I have just one 'long not answered question'... In how many countriesworldwide 'another day in paradise became a number ONE hit?

If you follow the link to the song's page you can see the answer to your question.

The only version that was number 1 anywhere was the one by Phil Collins, its entry starts with "US Billboard 1 - Nov 1989 (17 weeks), US Radio 1 of 1989 (peak 1 11 weeks), Japan (Tokyo) 1 - Nov 1989 (20 weeks), Sweden 1 - Nov 1989 (8 weeks), Switzerland 1 - Nov 1989 (21 weeks), Norway 1 - Nov 1989 (15 weeks), Poland 1 - Nov 1989 (23 weeks), Belgium 1 - Nov 1989 (14 weeks), Germany 1 - Jan 1990 (5 months), Canada RPM 1 for 8 weeks - Dec 1989, Europe 1 for 5 weeks - Jan 1990, Germany 1 for 10 weeks - Jan 1980, Spain 1 for 1 week - Jan 1990, Grammy in 1990, UK 2 - Nov 1989 (11 weeks)..."

Which I make 10 countries (that we have the charts for). Of course it was NOT number one in the UK (at least in the BBC chart).
