What/who is the only act to have two singles in the *top ten* all time uk top selling singles chart?

I'll go for Queen ?
Bohemian Rhapsody & We Will Rock You.

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Fri Oct 05, 2007 9:36 am

surprisingly no

(I think they both feature in the top 20 though)

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Fri Oct 05, 2007 9:37 am

just realised I didn't specify top ten in my question

d'oh

should read "in the top ten all time uk top selling singles chart"

Surely was Mary's Boy Child?

those precious seconds i saved by not bothering with caps

okay a quickie:
what style of music has been described as "five men on stage playing five different songs"

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Fri Oct 05, 2007 10:09 am

on further investigation it appears that Rivers Of Babylon & Brown Girl In The Ring was a double a side and Mary's boy child at number 10 is the other single
