Who Had More Hits--the Bee Gees or the Rolling Stones?

Two of the biggest acts of the Rock Era are paired here, and there are many ways to compare them.  You could look at album sales, concert success, awards won, etc.  Obviously, both acts are super talented and admired the world over.


Here, we just look at hits.  When you throw in popular album tracks, the totals for both groups is much higher, but just for songs that were and are regarded as hit songs, the totals are:


Bee Gees 45
Rolling Stones 56


That said, most of the Bee Gees' songs were bigger hits than those from the Rolling Stones so there's a way to have them come out on top as well.
