Janet 'Miss You Much' should be the number #1 of 89 , Phill collins spent 2 weeks in 89 and last 2 in 1990 and was on the charts for 18 , Janet 20 total.
I remember all 200 of these songs! After a three year break, I got back into charts in fall of 1988, and followed them heavily until January 1993. I just watched the 1988 video and was shocked at how many songs I did NOT know, by artists I was very familiar with!
My jams back in 7th/8th grade: Elvis Costello-Veronica, Martika-More than you know, Debbie Gibson-No More Rhyme/Lost in Your Eyes, Kon Kan-I beg your pardon (first time seeing the band/song’s name), Belle Stars-Iko Iko, Put a Little Love in Your Heart (never knew it was Al Green and Annie Lennox!), NKOTB-Didn’t I Blow Your Mind, Young MC-Bust a Move, Jeff Healey Band-Angel Eyes, Nenah Cherry-Buffalo Stance, Tears for Fears-Sowing the Seeds of Love, Milli Vanilli, Paula-Forever Your Girl.
I hope that you eventually make videos like this for all 15 years of what I refer to as "The '80s Era"(Theatrical release of Star Wars in late-May '77 through to Freddie Mercury's death in late-November '91)!
This would match up with Nirvana hitting it big and Guns n Roses with what I consider the last Great Classic Rock Stappe November Rain. I would like to suggest 2 sub eras, 77-Jan of 80 (Disco) and -May of 82 (up to just before Joan Jetts I love Rock n Roll hit the charts as Diaco Hangover when Yacht Rock Ruled.
1989 is a fascinating year in pop music. Was a great year for Adult Contemporary, Hair Metsl, Legacy Artists, Bubbbkegum Pop, Urban Contemporary, and some styles and artists were fading out. 1989 maybe the last year of so many tunes that never left the airwaves. Tube into any station with a name of The Breeze, Lite, or thr Jewel and many of these are staples 32 years later.
Actually,the peak position of the original version of Real Life's " Send Me An Angel peaked at no. 29 in 1983. And the original version of Sweet Sensation's "Hooked On You" peaked at number 64 in 1986.
Power ballads, R & B, some glam, the very first grunge songs and very few "feel-good" catchy pop tunes. No doubt it was the ending of the upbeat 80's and the beginning of the depressing, melancholic 90's.
I like to call it a move away from cheesy 80s pop and glam to a variety of beautiful masterpieces, but theres so much variety in the 90s charts its hard to label everything the same.
Thanks a lot for the video! I love '89 in music. There are countless incrdible songs in this video. I would like to know what criterion you use to break the ties for songs with the same peak position. Sometimes it is the total number of weeks that a song stayed on The Hot 100 and some others it is the number of weeks that a song stayed at its peak position. There isn't a one-off criterion.
I recognized a lot of these from the year I was 11 years old. I didn't appreciate many of them until over 20 years later. I didn't like 1989 as a child. 1990 was a bit better in my opinion.
Sharon Bryant's Let Go? One 2 Many Downtown? A crime to not have them listed if we're talking a song that peaked in the Top 40 (October 14th & May 20th, respectively).
@@carolaynstewartraitt9954 To each her own. It's a guilty pleasure, but the songs were good. "Blame It on the Rain" was written by Diane Warren, a huge songwriter in the late 80s and most of the 90s.
Some fond memories but then again some annoying ones. I remember trying to study or was feeling blue and I’d turn on the radio and hear some good, dance music... THEN they would play Phil “The Killjoy” Collins and I would like get so sad and depressed. His music really affected me and not in a good way.
The term should be ',Rob & Fab' didn't deserve credit' for those hits. Don't blame M. V. Or radio entirely for playing them, we record buyers got 'n to the top. Eddie Murphy? Yes but the song barely squeaked into the top 30. "Put Your Mouth On Me" was his only other hit. If you don't recognize some of the first 100 or just a bit more, it's because most of them weren't even Top 10 hits. They all made yop 40, top 30 or top 20 but, yep, only when you get really high on the list, do you get Top 19s and #1 hits. 1989 (just like 1988) had 35 songs go to #1 EACH! 70 #1 hits in a 2 year period. I followed the top 40 from 1984 to late 1994, so that's how I know. ☺️
Walter Campisano Plus, another reason why people may not remember these songs as much is the turnover rate was very fast. Even most #1s spent only 20 weeks on the Hot 100, and there was only one 4 week #1 song, Another Day in Paradise. Blame radio and studios, as soon as a song peaked, radio stopped playing them and was given the next single to play.
What a year the last rites before it went wish it lasted forever the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so dearly before the Nineties came along.U could have added another 300 more research in the World,genre u would be surprise some amazing gems even one hit wonders or 2hitters it beats anything else in the last 20 to 30years that's the rate stuff instead of the very popular u get sick of hearing.Last number 1 of the 80s and certainly was in all those days of 89 Another Day In Paradise by Workaholic Machine Phil Collins
Also add on some get abit out All Around The World Lisa Stanfield,The Best Tina Turner,Sweet Surrender Wet Wet Wet,Stop Sam Brown,Ride On Time Blackbox,Good Life Inner City,If Only I Could Sydney Youngblood great song,Back To Life Soul 2 Soul great song,Getting Away With It Electronic,I Don't Want A Lover Texas,I Want That Man Debbie Harry, You're History Shakespeares Sister,Stop Erasure Cool Song,Im Gonna Be Proclaimers,Fire Woman Cult,I Remember You Skid Row,Your Mama Don't Dance Poison,First Time Robin Beck,Rock And A Hard Place Rolling Stones just to name a few so many more
However, their #2 single "Girl You Know It's True" got the most points of all and therefore was ranked the highest out of MV's four smash hits on the Billboard Year-End chart for 1989.
Thank you. 1. I'm not liking this. Look Away is nowhere to be found. It was the #1 for the whole year in the USA according to Billboard. It peaked in Dec 1988. Same thing would happen for 1987. Walk Like an Egyptian peaked in Dec 1986. 2. Many of the pure Pop songs don't hold up. Songs from genres like R&B and Rock hold up better. Makes sense, the latter had to be decent to crossover. 3. The following would be interesting to know: For the whole year postions1-20, what's the lowest peak position ever for each position. For example, Breathe was #1 for the whole year. However, it peaked at #5, I think.
Why not? The music was great (even if they didn't sing the songs), and Rob & Fav did have the showmanship, the style, the dance moves, the fashion, the charisma, the faces.... that's why they sold like hotcakes... even today it's impossible to listen to MV's great songs without seeing those two faces in your mind.
It's in The Books,The Charts and that u don't think the last 20years heaps of acts are doin it,Top Of The Pops did but u still watched and believe too me Milli Vanilli are awesome and style and rock are part of history and deserve beats many in the last 20 to 30years

Great songs, great memories! I love me some Martika!!
So much work in these - thank you, they’re fantastic
Amazing year in music!
1989 was so good in music that basically 95% of the songs on this top 200 are a lot better than most top 5 singles in the past 10 years!

I saw New Kids on The Block with Sweet Sensation back in either 1989 or 1990. I can't believe I just admitted that.
Sweet Sensation was great!
Wow. Good end for lovely 80's...
I never knew that Eddie Murphy, Escape Club, Henry Lee Summer, and Katrina & the Waves had another hit in addition to the songs they're best known for!
Wow, 1989 really was Paula Abdul's year!
Facts, milli vanilli equaled her with 3 no.1s as well

2:17 oh my gosh! The Beatles
Janet Jackson and that Rhythm Nation 1814 era was on another level. Damn!
All these JJ comments I thought she was going to be all over the top20 but I only remember seeing Miss You Much
This is much accurate love it
Miss You Much blocked Cherish from #1 spot for 2wks!! But I forgive it, since it’s like one of my favorite JJ songs haha
A great year we can think back to all passwords songs were songs that we could understand the words
Power ballads, R & B, some glam, the very first grunge songs and very few "feel-good" catchy pop tunes. No doubt it was the ending of the upbeat 80's and the beginning of the depressing, melancholic 90's.

So many memories, could you do the year 1990
They already did that.
Great list. You missed Madonna's "Oh Father".....it was a #20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1989!
Dale David I know, #20 for 13 weeks in the Hot 100, it definitely should have been included. What a great song!
Number 2 Pump up the jam is missing, taking into account they included hits that charted both in 89 and 1990
It’s on the 1990 list

#MichaelJacksonAlive #song
A year to remember... I still do. The top ten nowadays is CRAP. Madonna is The Queen among other excellent singers.
You can tell the quality of the songs get better the higher the ranking, but a few songs should have done better.
Sharon Bryant's Let Go? One 2 Many Downtown? A crime to not have them listed if we're talking a song that peaked in the Top 40 (October 14th & May 20th, respectively).
The Honey Bangles last year on the Charts before they broke up rein the legend era 85-89
Debbie Gibson nesta lista da billboard,claro 1989 foi o auge dela
The Milli with 3 #1 hits. WOW!!!
Jimmy Gingo America, myself included, loved these songs. Such a shame about everything though.
@@DJTiger-tp2kc I love the Milli. Lol
Milli Vanilli and Desireless are the worst of the 80's

Poor madonna. 3 songs peaking at two in one year?.lol add up all those number 2s and add them to her 1s and she would have the moat again.

Never mind it’s on the 1990 list :):)
