In 1944, "I'm Wastin' My Tears On You" began a six week run at the top of the charts for Tex Ritter. The actor, singer, and songwriter was not stranger to the top of the charts as he placed many records at or near the top of the charts in his heyday.
In 1950, "If You've Got The Money I've Got The Time" became a chart topper for Lefty Frizzell, and remained there for three weeks. Elected to the Hall Of Fame in 1982, he was a stylist who was known to influence many of the stars of the sixties, seventies, eighties, and nineties. Stars of later periods hardly know who he was.
In 1967, Bill Anderson and Jan Howard began a four week run at the top of the charts with "For Loving You".
In 1989, Ronnie Milsap began occupation of the top spot on the charts for two weeks with "A Woman In Love".
In 1995, Aaron Tippin began two weeks at the top of the charts with "That's As Close As I'll Get To Loving You".
