Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 2014
"Happy" by Pharrell Williams came in at number one, spending a total of ten consecutive weeks at the top position of the Billboard Hot 100 throughout 2014.
The Billboard Hot 100 is a chart that ranks the best-performing singles of the United States. Its data, published by Billboard magazine and compiled by Nielsen SoundScan, is based collectively on each single's weekly physical and digital sales, as well as airplay and streaming. Throughout a year, Billboard will publish an annual list of the 100 most successful songs throughout that year on the Hot 100 chart based on the information. For 2014, the list was published on December 9, calculated with data from December 7, 2013 to November 29, 2014.[1]
This is the first time in eight years where a male artist tops the number-one spot with a non-collaboration.
