Some of the biggest artists in the world have never had a #1 hit on the Hot 100. Here are some that might surprise you:

One Direction. They did get to #2 with "Best Song Ever" . . . and Zayn Malik and Harry Styles have hit #1 as solo artists.


Shania Twain. "You're Still the One" hit #2, and that was her peak.


Missy Elliott. Her biggest hit was "Work It", at #2.


R.E.M. Their biggest hit was "Losing My Religion", which made it to #4.


Metallica. Surprisingly, "Enter Sandman" only made it to #16. But "Until It Sleeps" made it to #10.


and not on the list - Creedence Clearwater Revival - CCR holds the record for the most singles (five) to reach #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 without ever scoring a #1 single; as well as the most singles to reach the top 10 (nine) without ever reaching #1.
