Channeling ABBA, Ace of Base had a series of hits in the 90s, including "The Sign."

Dolly Parton wrote "I Will Always Love You" in the 70s, and then Whitney Houston's cover version spent an unreal 14 weeks at the No. 1 spot in 1992.

"…Baby One More Time" was rocket fuel for the career of one Britney Spears, who became (and still is) constant tabloid fodder.

Boyz II Men still performs thanks to the lasting power of No. 1 hits, like "I'll Make Love to You."
