Cliff Richard: Trivia
Cliff Richard has scored 14 #1 singles in the UK; more than any other artist with the exception of
Elvis Presley and The Beatles.
Cliff has sold more singles in the UK than any other act with sales exceeding 20.1 million records. Interestingly enough, he has only scored 1 million selling single, "The Young Ones".
Cliff is the only act in the UK to score a #1 single in each and every decade since the inception of the UK Singles chart in 1952, with the exception of the 00's, which are not over. He will have to score a #1 single between now and December 2009 in order to maintain the record, although he can claim the record for being the only act to score a #1 single in every decade in the first century of the inception of the UK Singles Chart. Here is a list showing the amount of chart toppers Cliff has scored in each decade:-
- 1950s - 2; "Living Doll", "Travelling Light"
- 1960s - 6; "Please Don't Tease", "I Love You", "The Young Ones", "The Next Time/Bachelor Boy", "Summer Holiday", "The Minute You're Gone", "Congratulations"
- 1970s - 1; "We Don't Talk Anymore"
- 1980s - 2; "Living Doll", "Mistletoe & Wine"
