Back in the 'early' days, Pat's books and then the on-line database was based on Cashbox. Not so much, Billboard.
According to Joel Whitburn's 'Comparison Book', 'My Best Friend's Girl' peaked at #44 on Cashbox. -Bill. |

I checked the actual sales figures from my record store, and found that 'My Best
Friend's Girl' sold enough copies to warrant a top 20 position. We sold more of that than, "Tonight She Comes", which was a top 10. I attribute that to buyers already tiring of the 'Disco Era' music and wanting to get more Rock or Punk, but I could be wrong. -Bill. |

To answer some questions about which Cars singles should
be in the database----I will add "My Best Friends Girl" as it hit #35 on BB, #39 on RW and #44 on CB. I will delete "It's All I Can Do" as it charted #41 on BB, #58 on RW and #40 on CB. As for "Good Times Roll" and "Since You're Gone" they charted below the top 40 on all publications. |
