Not that long ago, but which songs have staying power? Which are songs that you look back and say "Why was this so popular"? What's good? What's terrible?
Hot 100: (Oddly enough only 4 out of the top ten actually hit the top of the weekly chart, proving that consistency over an extended period of time is key, some of these records' year end rankings are higher than any position that they ever reached in any week during the year)
1- Hanging By A Moment- Lifehouse
2- Fallin- Alicia Keys
3- All for You- Janet Jackson
4- Drops of Jupiter- Train
5- I'm Real- Jennifer Lopez/JaRule
6- If You're Gone- Matchbox20
7-Let Me Blow Your Mind- Eve/Gwen Stefani
8-Thank You- Dido
9-Again- Lenny Kravitz
10- Independent Women- Destiny's Child
NOTE: Destiny's Child were the top act in this chart; their song was #1 for 11 weeks longer than anything above it. The ones that never topped the list were Kravitz, Dido, Eve, Train, Matchbox20 and Lifehouse. Lifehouse was the 3rd act to top the year end chart with a song that peaked at #2 on the weekly list
R&B
1- Fiesta- R Kelly
2- Missing You- Case
3- Love- Musiq Soulchild

6- U Remind Me- Usher
7- Peaches and Cream- 112
8- forgot this one

NOTE: ALthough most of these were top ten pop hits the only song common to both hot 100 and r&b is Fallin. Top artist is R Kelly
