Mostly unsourced string of trivia, bordering on WP:SYNTH, WP:OR, and WP:CRUFT. Particularly noteworthy achievements can (and are!) mentioned with citations in individual articles, but incidents like "Biggest ever jump within the British albums chart (94 positions jumped by Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band from no. 97 to no. 3 in 1987) (record surpassed in 2008 by Leona Lewis's Spirit album.)" and "Most 2-sided charted singles in the Billboard Hot 100 charts (26 singles, including two double-sided #1 hits, although "For You Blue" (B-side of "The Long And Winding Road") accompanied its A-side and did not chart on its own)" are really reaching. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:48, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
