Question: Which artist spent 14 weeks atop the hot 100 with candle in the wind 1997/something about the way you look tonight?
Elton John. He released "Candle in the Wind 1997" as a tribute to Princess Diana, who died in a car crash on August 31, 1997. The song was a reworked version of his 1973 song "Candle in the Wind", which was originally about Marilyn Monroe. He performed the new version only once, at Diana's funeral on September 6, 1997. The song was released as a double A-side single with "Something About the Way You Look Tonight" on September 23, 1997. It debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on October 11, 1997 and stayed there for 14 weeks, becoming the best-selling single in Billboard history and the first single certified Diamond in the US .
