I don't know the answer.i think there was a song called "The day that Billy Joe something jumped of the tallahasy bridge "I don't even know if it was number one so its a sort of bench mark for you guys to give a number one with a bigger title.Laugh

That song was called Ode To Billy Joe

The longest title not to reach number 1 was The Face's / Rod Stewart's 1974 no. 12 hit "You Can Make Me Dance Sing Or Anything (Even Take The Dog For A Walk, Mend A Fuse, Fold Away The Ironing Board, Or Any Other Domestic Shortcomings)"
