	This is terrific! Another quiz where I've just never seen the information this way before. I thought you'd missed John Denver and Donna Summer, but nope, both had their hits reach #1 in consecutive years. I'm sure you'll get complaints about Michael Jackson, but he too never went more than 2 years in a row with #1. My only suggestion is that on the Style page you change Number of columns from "Auto" to 3 Columns.

	I got Wings and Beyoncé, then forgot to try Paul McCartney and Destiny's Child. And yes, the Michael Jackson thing surprised me too, but he was known for taking a long time between his albums.

	Thanks for the comments and suggestions. Michael Jackson is indeed the artist with the most number one hits not on this list. Although you can make an argument to ask where Usher is, too. And Black Eyed Peas could make this list very, very soon.

	I was most surprised that George Michael isn't here. He had 10 number 1s in 7 years, but never three years in a row. Great quiz.

	Excellent quiz. Some interesting surprises.

	If this quiz doesn't count 'with' or 'featuring' artists then Alicia Keys shouldn't be on here since she was the featured artist on Jay-Z's 'Empire State of Mind.'

	jmsr525:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 12:22 GMT	2 points
	The way I read the Singles off of Jay-Z's latest album is with plusses: As in "Jay-Z + Alicia Keys" and "Jay-Z + Rihanna + Kanye West" which I would take to mean 'and' since the symbol + is normaly commutative in a way that 'with' and 'featuring' are not. I have yet to find a definitive answer on this, however. If I do, I will change it accordingly.
