The following is a list of songs that have charted for 50 weeks or more in total on the UK Singles Chart according to the Official Charts Company (OCC).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Use search button to find any song title or artist name )〕 The chart here is as recorded by the OCC, i.e. usually a top 50 from 1960 to 1978, top 75 from then until 1982 and top 100 from 1983 onwards. To be eligible the song has to be the original version whether it be by re-entry or re-issue. Remixes do not count except under certain circumstances (see "Blue Monday" below). The song with the most weeks in the top 100 is "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol, with a total of 166 weeks between 2006 and 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=OFFICIAL SINGLES CHART RESULTS MATCHING: CHASING CARS )〕 When only a top 50 was compiled, Frank Sinatra's "My Way" set records which still stand: 122 weeks in the top 50 between April 1969 and January 1972, 75 weeks in the top 40,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ed Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud sets chart record )〕 and 124 weeks in the top 75, including a re-release in 1994, following a Legend Award for Sinatra at that year's Grammy Awards. The longest unbroken run in the top 100 is 92 weeks for both "Pompeii" by Bastille and "Happy" by Pharrell Williams. Engelbert Humperdinck's "Release Me" held the record run in the top 50 for over 40 years until beaten by "All of Me" by John Legend with 58 consecutive weeks in the top 50 (since passed by "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran with 63 weeks). The song with the most weeks at number 1 and in the top 10 is "I Believe" by Frankie Laine which stayed in the top 10 for 35 weeks, 18 of them at number one and a further seven at number two. Also noteworthy is "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley & His Comets, the only song released in the 1950s to appear in the lists, which achieved 36 of its weeks when only a top 20 or top 30 were published. In the pre-digital era, Christmas-themed songs were often re-released in different years and several have continued to chart each year from the mid-noughties onwards. "Merry Xmas Everybody" by Slade has had 19 chart runs in 22 different years (1973-74, 1980-87, 1989-1990 and 2006-15), while "Fairytale of New York" by Pogues and Kirsty MacColl has reached the top 10 four times and spent a record 38 weeks in its eleven runs in the top 20. In a similar but more modest way, "Thriller" by Michael Jackson〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Michael Jackson )〕 and "Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker, Jr.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ray Parker Jr )〕 have charted at Halloween in nine and eight years since 2007 respectively. ==Songs with 50 or more weeks in the Top 40== The Top 40 chart has been broadcast weekly on BBC Radio 1 (currently as ''The Official Chart'') since the 1980s and is often referred to as 'the charts'. Appearing in the Top 40 can greatly increase a song's exposure on television and radio. In June 2015, "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran became the first song to stay in the Top 40 for 52 consecutive weeks—equivalent to one year, having spent a record-breaking 18 weeks in the chart before reaching number one. Some or all weeks in charts when less than a top 40 compiled. Includes 5-day 'week' ending Thursday 9 July 2015 when the chart week changed from Sunday-Saturday to Friday-Thursday. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of songs which have spent the most weeks on the UK Singles Chart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
