We All Know And Love The Songs That Went To #1 On The Charts…but How Many Of These Songs Do You Know…that Only Went To #2?

The songs that got SO close to being a #1 hit…but missed out! Some…were because the songs in competition were just better? Sometimes an artists/bands songs went to #2 and stuck…because the band had a song already at #1…and were in competition with themselves! We dive deep into all these #2 songs this weekend! Why they stopped at #2…and what songs/bands beat them out for top spot!!

Have a look at my list…see if you can recall what songs beat out THESE songs for the top spot…
