The Ultimate Number Two Hits | Music News

Billboard just dropped the top 100 songs that peaked at number two on the Hot 100 — the near-misses that became cultural icons, from Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” to Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance.” These anthems, often more beloved than their number one rivals, reveal how close artists came to the crown — and why some never quite made it. The list spans decades, includes surprise entries like artists who weren’t even involved in the music, and features first-time hits that never topped the charts again. If your favorite isn’t on the top ten, you can vote for it in the “Other” section. Billboard’s asking: which number two hit is your ultimate banger? Vote now.
