Product Information

Williams also recorded 47 songs that reached Billboard magazine's Hot 100 chart in the United States and another eight that " bubbled under" the Hot 100. [7] Nine of these 54 recordings made the top 10 (including 1957's " Butterfly", which spent three weeks at number one), [8] and 32 of them are also on the list of 44 entries that Williams had on the magazine's Easy Listening chart, [9] which was started in 1961. [10] 19 of those 44 songs made the top 10 on that list, and four of them (" Can't Get Used to Losing You", " In the Arms of Love", " Happy Heart", and " (Where Do I Begin) Love Story") went on to number one. [11] In a ranking of Billboard's top Adult Contemporary chart performers from 1961 to 1969, he comes in at number five. [12] The formula also worked well in the United Kingdom, where his next LP, Love, Andy, reached number one, [22] and even as Williams was not charting and selling in the US in the 1970s as he had been, the numbers across the Atlantic remained impressive. The 1970 Andy Williams' Greatest Hits compilation reached number 42 during its 20 weeks on Billboard's list of the 200 Top LPs in America, but in the UK the album spent its first three weeks on their much smaller album chart at number 2 before eventually spending five of its 116 weeks there at number 1. [35] His final top 10 LP in America, 1971's Love Story, went under the title Home Lovin' Man in the UK, where it reached number 1, and four more top 10 albums followed it onto the UK chart, including 1974's The Way We Were, which was the first of his 25 studio albums released by Columbia thus far that did not reach the Billboard charts. His popularity in the UK wasn't enough to sustain his relationship with Columbia much longer, and he recorded a few more albums that didn't receive wide attention before moving on.

Since many radio stations in the US adopt a format change to Christmas music each December, many holiday hits have an annual spike in popularity during the last few weeks of the year and are retired once the season is over. [42] In December 2011, Billboard began a Holiday 100 chart to "rank the top holiday hits of all eras using the same methodology as the Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay, and sales data." [43] A handful of Williams recordings have made appearances on the Holiday 100 and are noted below according to the holiday season in which they charted there.
