I chart a song as soon as it arrives, as I know that will have been when I heard it on the radio, or saw the video on the Chart Show, to not chart a song until it goes Top 40 is quite frankly ridiculous, but doesn't surprise me at all. I wasn't following the US charts at this point in my life, so I will only chart when they are in the UK charts. But yes everybody is different and stuck in their ways.

I did chart "My Favourite Dress" which peaked outside the top 75 (but within the top 100) so I see a couple of people are charting "Good Girls Go To Heaven" which managed one week at #100. Holly Sherwood is the lead singer on that song, by the way. She's in our 1972 retro chart at present (or was a couple of weeks ago anyway).

True, but everyone does what they like at the time, for me if the USA chart hit predates the UK hit I just wait until the UK chart entry, if it doesn't chart in the UK I chart the US hit. I don't do that, but if I know a song will enter the UK top 40 I will wait until it does, rather than chart it when it's in the top 75. But if I know it won't, I chart it when it's in the top 75. So They Might Be Giants have to wait until it gets into the top 40 before I chart it. I'm afraid I don't take it that seriously. I don't have time to listen to every new entry, so just chart the ones that I remember and like each week.

I don't have time to listen to every new entry, so just chart the ones that I remember and like each week. I don't either, it's based on how I charted them at the time with a few insertions. My retro-revisit chart is more serious, listening to every new entry, so when I get to 1990 it will be somewhat different to what I post here, but in general will have the same number ones unless they clash. I have an issue in 1980 on the latest playlist with 2 big ones out the same week.
