Billboard.com has never even HEARD of The Jones Gang (do the search yourself). On what reliable site can this information be confirmed? (Facebook, Wikipedia, and YouTube are not considered reliable.)
There seems to be a web-wide scam going on about this Jones Gang song 'Angel', with many (unreliable) sources falsely claiming that it reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for many weeks circa 2005/6. So, I did further research on this song. While the 'number one' claim is still B.S., the song did creep up to number 30 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. Still, I believe that some overzealous fan(s) and/or employee(s) of the band are trying to rewrite history to inflate the band's perceived importance.
