The Hot 100 Singles Sales (also known as Singles Sales) is a chart released weekly by Billboard magazine in the United States. It measures sales of commercial singles and is one of three component charts, along with the Hot 100 Airplay and the Hot Digital Songs, that determine the chart positions of singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Like the UK Singles Chart did for over fifty years (before the week ending April 17 2005), this chart monitors the sales of commercial singles in stores. As singles sales became less popular, paid digital downloads had to be incorporated into the main chart to reflect a better spread of popularity.
With the introduction of The
Pop 100, the Hot 100 Singles Sales chart information has been utilized for compiling both the Hot 100 and Pop 100 thus a recent slight name change to "Singles Sales" (to show its uses for both charts). However, the name is still in a transition period and it has not been confirmed if the change is permanent.
The longest run at number one on the Hot 100 Single Sales chart belongs to Bryan Adams's "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" which posted 17 weeks at number one in 1991.
Elton John has the record for most singles sold in a week, with 1.5 million copies of "Candle in the Wind 1997/Something about the Way You Look Tonight" sold the week of October 11, 1997.
