A lot of interesting lists here. You will note that the adjustment for different eras is evident. As a couple examples the top songs about sex and the top songs by duets. The top 3 sex songs feature I Want to Make Love to You at 3(14 weeks at #1), Tonight;s the Night at 2(8 weeks) and Physical at #1(10 weeks). And the top duets feature The Boy is Mine at 3(13 weeks), Say Say Say at 2(6 weeks) and Endless Love at #1(9 weeks).

So in both cases a Soundscan era song with more weeks at #1 is below 2 pre-Soundscan songs because of the adjustment.
