Madonna Rules the chart
It’s happening all over again. Last year, Madonna was the No. 1 Hot Dance Singles Sales Artist with three charted titles; her single, “Die Another Day,” was No. 1 on the Hot Dance Singles Sales chart. Now, 12 months later, “Die Another Day” remains in the pole position of the same Billboard chart.
The Maverick/Warner Bros. artist also retains the top spot on this year’s Hot Dance Singles Sales Artists recap.
At the end of 2003, Madonna‘s label released “Remixed & Revisited,” a seven-track EP featuring alternative remixes from her album “American Life.” Also included were such extras as the MTV live performance of “Like a Virgin/Hollywood Medley,” featuring Britney Spears, Missy Elliott and Christina Aguilera.
