Biggest Jumps to #1 in the Rock Era

The lack of competition has severely skewed this list.  Nowadays, if you record a song with a coherent sentence, or a melody of more than five notes, you can easily shoot up to #1 (and sometimes, you don't even have to do that!).  Here is the current list of The Biggest Jumps to #1 of the Rock Era*:


1.    #96 to #1:  "Womanizer" by Britney Spears (2008)
2.    #80-#1:  "Live Your Life" by T.I. featuring Rihanna (2008)
3.    #71-#1:  "Whatever You Like" by T.I. (2008)
4.    #64-#1:  "Makes Me Wonder" by Maroon 5 (2007)
5.    #53-#1:  "Take A Bow" by Rihanna (2008)
6.    #52-#1:  "A Moment Like This" by Kelly Clarkson (2002)
7.    #51-#1:  "Love In This Club" by Usher featuring Young Jeezy (2008)
8.    #42-#1:  "Give It To Me" by Timbaland featuring Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake (2007)
9.    "Umbrella" by Rihanna featuring Jay-Z (2007)
10.  #34-#1:  "SOS" by Rihanna (2006)
