Billboard's Top 200 Songs by Peak - 1988

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ก.ค. 2024
  • This video presents the Top 200 songs of the year 1988, ranked by peak, not points. Please note that to be eligible for this chart, the song did not necessarily have to be released or charting in 1989, but reach its peak position that year. For instance, "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" by Poison did spend one week at #1 in 1989, but its peak date was in late 1988, so it is included only in this year's countdown.
    Ties between songs were broken by considering these criteria, in order: weeks in the Top 10, weeks in the Top 40, and weeks on the entire Hot 100 Singles chart. However, the video only shows total weeks on the Hot 100, as that would have been too much information in such short time each song has.
    This channel does not own the songs and the video has been created for research/information purposes. If you like a song, please visit the official artist channel or purchase/stream the song on your favorite platform.
    Thanks for watching!

    88 magic number, infinite music about infinite love

    Such great music and such great talent. All big superstars. There’s not one song on this list I don’t remember. I follow the charts very closely. But I really did not expect Steve Winwood’s “Roll With It” to be number one out of all those good ones!

  • @crealkillr
    @crealkillr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Some of these are classics! I honestly believe that any artist that could remix/ convert some of these songs into something modern would be a huge hit. Sure you may need to share royalties to the original artist, but its a win win. If the song isnt known by the current generations, it would bring it back into circulation. Im just saying... I would listen to these songs in a new genre, new sound, or remix version. I dont know the headache of trying to get permissions, but these songs would be popular if a good singer/ artist could do something with it.
    THAT SAID, i also think if someone made a tik tok of a song (which is known to happen) from this list, it would also bring it back into circulation. It's been known to happen to fleetwood mac, among other artists (sorry i dont use tik tok). I love music, and even i havent heard some of these songs before.

    • @crealkillr
      @crealkillr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Alot of these songs are new to me, and although i dont see myself buying them for my ipod any time soon, i do think that if a modern artist were to cover them (or better, remix it) it could be a hit on the radio. Like i said above, it would draw attention to a old song, and possibly bring it back into popularity and circulation.

    Rather interesting that most of the top 200 songs were top 10 hits and the top 100 all hit #8 or higher. Usually, in the top 100 songs of the years, there are a few songs that never made the top 10 and often a few that never made the top 20. Also interesting that only one song was #1 for 4 weeks and only two were 31 for three weeks and many spent one week at #1.

    This is inaccurate: I listened to the "American Top 40' end of year countdown for the Billboard 100 singles in 1988 and #3 was George Harrison Got My Mind Set On You, #2 was INXS Need You Tonight, #1 was Faith George Michael.
