The "Be Unique" archives!

[ "Be Unique!" Archives]

• • The "Be Unique" category for the week of August 12 - August 16, 2002:

Name a Top 40, 1955-1985 charting solo artist whose first and last stage name begin with the same letter of the alphabet.

Uniqueness will be determined by artist's name. Of all unique submissions, the artist's highest charting song which was on the Billboard Top 40 for the longest time receives a bonus point. If two unique answers tie in both highest song position and number of weeks, both submissions will be allotted a bonus point.
Chart positions and number of weeks on Top 40 charts determined by Joel Whitburn's "Top Pop Singles, 1955-1999," Copyright 2000.
