FLASHBACK: THIS WEEK IN 1999

This week in 1999 Cher came out of nowhere to take the #1 spot on the Hot 100 with Believe. Everyone had adondoned our beloved Cher after a couple of crappy movies and an info-mercial. I didn't. I knew she could do it. I never had a doubt. Cher proved all the nay-sayers wrong when her single Believe reached the top spot and held on for four weeks. It has become one of the biggest selling singles of all time, having sold over 10 million copies worldwide. It also made Cher, 52 at the time, the oldest female artist to ever have a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and gave her the record for longest span between #1 hits (her last one was Dark Lady in 1974). Cher is apparently working on a new album now, so don't count our girl out just yet. She may come right back to the top. Enjoy Believe!
