"Are You Happy Now?" jumps 171-1 this week which is a 170-spot jump. That establishes the song when the biggest spot jump ever as well as the biggest jump to #1. "Are You Happy Now" is the fourth consecutive #1 song of Michelle Branch.

"Are You Happy Now?" makes Michelle Branch the new owner of the consecutive number ones records. It broke the previous record held by Britney Spears ("...Baby One More Time," "Sometimes" & "(You Drive Me) Crazy") and Alien Ant Farm ("Smooth Criminal," "Movies" & "Attitude"). Alien Ant Farm's streak is still intact. "Are You Happy Now?" moves Michelle Branch into a tie for 3rd with Blink 182 on the most weeks @ number one list and a tie for 4th with Sugar Ray, Creed & Red Hot Chili Peppers on the most number ones list. Currently, Michelle Branch has four number ones and 11 total weeks at number one. Michelle Branch is starting to become one of the biggest artists ever on the Chart Named Goo chart.

Chartifacts On The New Chart Entries This Week
181	Counting Crows - - If I Could Give All My Love
This is one of the weakest weeks for debuts that we have this year and so Counting Crows would probably not earn Hot Shot Debut status had this been another week. "If I Could Give All My Love" is the following to the CNG top five hit, "Big Yellow Taxi." "If I Could Give All My Love" lacks the emotional fire of the previous single but the song does enough to satisfy Counting Crows fans. This song probably won't get to the level of "Big Yellow Taxi" in terms of chart success but the song is set up for a decent run on the chart.
