Bryan Adams

On this day in music history, Bryan Adams made chart history when his song (Everything I Do), I Do It For You had its 12th consecutive week as a UK #1 single.

The song ended up spending 16 consecutive weeks in the #1 spot! It became the longest uninterrupted run ever on that chart as of 2025!

Here in the US, the song did well, too. Spending 7 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
