Number-ones[edit]

The Black Eyed Peas held off competition in early 2011 with lead single from The Beginning, "The Time" continuing its reign at number-one. The hit's successor, "Just Can't Get Enough" also saw success when it reached the peak.
LMFAO reached new success in 2011, when international hit "Party Rock Anthem" spent nine weeks atop the chart; also spending four weeks at the summit on the singles chart.
Example achieved two number-one singles in 2011 – the first in May with "Changed the Way You Kiss Me" and the second in September with "Stay Awake".
Popstar Rihanna dominated late 2011 with the Calvin Harris produced "We Found Love". The track spent eleven consecutive weeks at the summit, also spending six non-consecutive weeks at the number-one spot on the singles chart.
