As for Sir Ringo and Sir Paul, 83 and 81 respectively, they’re now the oldest band in history to secure their place at the top of Mount Pop. Commenting on The Beatles’ phenomenal success, Martin Talbot, Chief Executive Officer, Official Charts Company says: “Beatlemania has returned this week - and what an amazing few days it has been for The Fab Four. Now who is going to be the 1303rd UK No1 this coming friday, but one thing is for sure it won't be Justin Biebers What do you mean!Now we have a similar situation with mister Biebers What do you Mean gets the No1 slot on 10th Sept=1301st UK No1 On 10 November 2023, The Beatles made a record-breaking return to Number 1 on the UK's Official Singles Chart with Now And Then, setting a new record for the longest time span between an artist's first and last Number 1. Now And Then reached the top of the Official Chart 60 years and 6 months after The Beatles' First Number 1 - From Me To You in May 1963. Tiffany’s take on “I Think We’re Alone Now” is nothing like the Tommy James And The Shondells version. Tommy James sings that song with a harried, almost fearful sort of desperation. He sounds like he’s taking a big risk in looking for a place to be alone with a significant other. The music reflects that horny anguish, and it drops into a hush on the chorus. They’re also the second and third oldest chart-toppers of all time, behind Captain Tom Moore, who was 99 years old when his version of You’ll Never Walk Alone with Michael Ball and the NHS Voices of Care Choir reached the summit in 2020. The Beatles now boast the longest time span between an artist’s first and last Number 1 single. The Beatles’ first Number 1 single was From Me to You in May 1963, 60 years and 6 months ago. They overtake Elvis Presley, with 47 years and 6 months between All Shook Up (1957) and a reissue of It’s Now or Never (2005).

As it reached Number 1, it helped The Beatles extend their lead as the British act with the most Number 1 singles in UK chart history, as well as the longest-gap between Number 1 singles (54 years) and the longest span of Number 1 singles (60 years from their first to their last).

In Fred Bronson’s Billboard Book Of Number 1 Hits, Cordell says that Tiffany’s version of “I Think We’re Alone Now”“was very foreign to me. It just wasn’t the same song. All I can say is I don’t argue with #1 records.” Maybe Cordell didn’t understand what had happened with his own song, but its success makes sense. Also known as your throughput speed.
