The two longest running number-one singles of 1980 are "Call Me" by Blondie and "Lady" by Kenny Rogers with each single obtaining six weeks on top of the chart. Every song that went to number one for 1980 stayed on the Billboard Hot 100 over twenty weeks.
That year, six acts hit number one for the first time, such as Queen, Pink Floyd, Lipps Inc., Billy Joel, Christopher Cross, and Kenny Rogers. John Lennon was the fourth artist to hit number one posthumously, after his death in December 1980.
The British rock band Queen was the only act to achieve multiple number-one songs during the year with "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" and "Another One Bites the Dust".
