Frequently asked questions
What is the best record of 2003 in the Dutch Top 40?
Summer Jam 2003 by The Underdog Project tops the 2003 year chart, with 673 points from 19 weeks in the chart (peak position 1). The top 5: 1. Summer Jam 2003 (The Underdog Project), 2. Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word (Blue), 3. Anyplace, Anywhere, Anytime (Nena), 4. Where Is The Love? (Black Eyed Peas), 5. Ik Wou Dat Ik Jou Was (Veldhuis & Kemper).
How is the 2003 year chart calculated?
Every weekly entry in 2003 earns points: 41 minus the position, so 40 points for a number 1 and 1 point for number 40. The sum of those points sets the order; on a tie the peak position counts, then the number of weeks, then the earliest week. Only the weeks of 2003 count, also for a record that entered the year before or stayed on into the next year.
Is the number 1 of the year chart also the record that spent longest at number 1?
Not necessarily. The year chart counts every week in the chart, including the weeks lower in the Top 40; a record that stayed high for a long time can therefore end above a shorter-lived number 1. The number ones of 2003, the longest-charting records and the highest new entries are on the 2003 year page.
How many weeks does the 2003 year chart cover?
52 weekly charts, with 313 different records between them, 15 of which reached number 1. Every week can be viewed separately from the year page.
