Artists with simultaneous occupation of top 2

 * Madonna held the top 2 between 11/19/03 and 12/10/03 with Me Against The Music (with Britney Spears) at #1 and Nothing Fails at #2. The next week, the two songs switched positions. The week after that, Love Profusion would be #1, and Nothing Fails #2. That gave Madonna the distinction of dominating the top 2 for six weeks with three different songs.
 * Tori Amos dominated the entire top 3 on the week of 5/1/05, the first of only two artists to ever do so. That week she was #1 with Original Sinsuality, #2 with Mother Revolution, and #3 with Sleeps With Butterflies. On 12/11/05 she took the top two with Cars And Guitars at #1 and Parasol at #2.
 * Pearl Jam’s World Wide Suicide and Life Wasted held the top two positions between 5/14/06 and 5/28/06.
 * Dolores O’Riordan’s Ordinary Day and When We Were Young held the top two positions between 4/1/07 and 5/6/07. Dolores just barely missed breaking the record for most weeks holding the top 2 positions, which she ties with Madonna; however, Dolores has spent the most time dominating the top 2 with the same two songs.
 * From 8/21/11 to 9/4/11, and again from 10/2/11 to 10/30/11, Adele's Set Fire To The Rain and Someone Like You held the top two positions. On the weeks of 9/18/11 and 9/25/11, Adele became the second artist to hold the entire top 3, with Someone Like You, Rumour Has It and Set Fire To The Rain.
