Not sure where else to post this question but I thought someone on the site may know the answer to it. According to Joel Whitburn's books, Perry Como hit #1 on the Top 100 chart with his song "Round And Round". However, according to Wikipedia the song never hit #1 on that chart. Would sooner believe Whitburn than wikipedia but all the weeks the songs around it hitting #1 are accounted for which makes me think there is a mistake somewhere with Whitburn. Can anyone shed light on my dimness?

It is undoubtedly because the only week "Round and Round" was at #1 on the top 100 chart, it was a tie (with "All Shook Up"). There were weeks where 2 songs were listed at #1. Ties for the #1 position and Casey alluded to that once or twice.
