Has this forum been deserted? The only posts yesterday were us updating our charts of the year...
Razorlight's song called America only reached NM #3 so I don't have two different songs called America that reached #1. The Power Of Love (with 3 different songs), Woman and Valerie are the only 3 titles to have done that in my chart. 5 singles have reached NM #1 after having gone down during their run, the most recent being "Rise" by Ben's Brother in 2007. Both that song and the previous one to do so "You Can't Keep A Good Man Down" by the Clint Boon Experience in 1999 ended up as their year's #1 of the year on points.
By the way when I don't find a video on youtube I add my own. At first I did it with pictures but then decided to dub it over another video. I've sometimes done it over a live version of the same song or just of that act performing live finding the video that has the closest match to the playing time of the song.

Razorlight's 'America' didn't reach my #1 either, in fact I think it missed the top 10. Excluding the songs that have had two spells at #1 (), there have been 7 in my chart, which is more than I had expected. This includes Nickelback's "How You Remind Me", which made my chart about three months before being released when I saw the video on MTV (possibly MTV2), and then dropped out before re-entering at #1 when the single finally came out. Yeah, I've thought of doing that with WLP, but I don't think I have the software needed to make one

Great Top 5 Embed isn't working on #1.

I haven't counted among my 5 those that reached #1 as re-entries. There were loads of those in the past.
As for making videos, I use Windows Movie Maker which is pretty standard with Windows. I simply grab the video I have watched from youtube out of my internet cache, rename it with a .flv extension and use a free FLV to AVI converter, which is the only actual bit of software I needed to get that I didn't have already.

Great Top 5 Embed isn't working on #1. Fixed now. I think the record company disabled embedding of any official video. Spoilsports.

I have some huge hits at the top end of my chart and I am planning on embedding the videos so don't know how many will work.
