Really! What criteria is this list based on? Sales? Chart position? Where is this list from? Is there a link?

Lots of people did research on Billboard charts - like Joel Whitburn

You could make a list from his books but I'm sure Rick did his own research and used his own methods

These figures from greasylake get brought up now and again but there's no way of verifying how accurate they are.

I wrote at one stage to ask the source of their figures but received no response.
