Mediabase Top 100 Flashback: October 25, 2000

[Adam (UTR)]

I saw Jason Harper posting some flashbacks in here, so I thought this might be okay: if you'd like me to post it in Nostalgia next time, I will.

Anyways, since it's close to Election Time, why don't we take a look back at what Mediabase looked like near the 2000 election? Spins were down, Oil prices were down, though Boy Bands were still up...

Note: There are two songs missing from the data on the MB site, I've filled them in to the best of my knowledge, but I don't know their spins or audience.

oooh interesting. I would love if it you kept posting these here

[soundUPsceneDOWN]

Thanks!

42 34 SHAGGY It Wasn't Me MCA 1059 672 387 13.1

Ugh, I've been hearing this song on my CHR every day for the past 2 weeks.

[Tony]

Wow, so cool! Thanks!

[OH SNAP!]

OMG,. this seems so recent!

[Au$tin]

7279 #1 vs. 10733 #1

WEIRD!

The #1 would be this week's #6! :o

I think it's a sign that CHR stations are overplaying songs.

[Alejoqg]

not really... more stations were added...

[Minor Scratch]

3 Doors Down, Pink, Madonna, Destiny's Child (Beyonce), Christina Aguilera, Matchbox, Britney, Usher, and to a lesser extent, Nelly, Nelly Furtado, Ludacris, and *NSYNC (Justin Timberlake) are the only acts with Top 100 hits then that have had hits during the last year on the Top 100 chart.

Out of those, 3DD, Pink, Usher, Madonna, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, and Britney Spears have nailed over Top 20 with their respective singles in the last 6 months. Maybe America is catching up with the longevity game.

[P!nkch TheO™]

3 3 PINK Most Girls LaFace/Arista 6934 6899 35 66.2

MOST GIRLS want a man with the bling bling
Got my own thing, got the ching ching
I just want real love
MOST GIRLS want a man with the mean green
Don't wanna dance if he can't be everything that I dream of
A man that understands real love

smash!

LOved that song....

[Marv]

Soundscene is 100% correct; the reporting panel size has steadily dropped over the past decade; there were 149 reporters @ R&R in December of 1998 ('Lullaby' by Shawn Mullins was #1), and 129 reporters in December of 2003, when 'Hey Ya' was #1.

Everybody on this board knows that nobody played 'Kryptonite' or 'With Arms Wide Open' 120+ times per week in 2000.

'Lullaby' averaged 52 SPSPW (Spins Per Station Per Week) a decade ago, vs. 72 for 'Hey Ya', and 94 for the record-holder, 'Over And Over' by Nelly & Tim.

[Adam (UTR)]

Sorry, I should have mentioned this earlier:

According to this chart, there were 120 stations playing "With Arms Wide Open". The top spinner played it 95 times. Here's how it breaks down:

4 stations played it 90x-95x
12 stations played it 80x-89x
21 stations played it 70x-79x
30 stations played it 60x-69x
21 stations played it 50x-59x
20 stations played it 40x-49x
4 stations played it 30-39x
2 stations played it 20-29x
1 station played it 10-19x (and it was an add that week!)
3 stations played it solely for syndicated show spins

[K.]

Wow. Cool.

[selenatisdale411]

The AI is much different too. The #2 had over 80 millions audience.

[Ryan]

wow, those great songs were released in 8 years ago?
time flies...

[Mega248]

Adam, do the archive pages by any chance tell you how many stations were on the Mediabase panel at the time? I know there were around 135 when R&R first stopped counting airplay from all the indicator (aka non-Mediabase) stations back in 2001. If I had to guess I'd say the Mediabase panel size 8 years ago wasn't too different then from what it is now, meaning that the 7,279 spins for the #1 song then vs the 10,000+ now really is representative of just how much more songs are overplayed these days.

And thanks so much for taking the time to post these!

[skaterboyccs]

There were a lot of great songs and artists charting that time!!!

I wish the chart were balanced as it was 8 years ago!

[Dot]

Seeing I'm Like a Bird and Stronger there makes me feel ~*young*~ again. ;')

[Kii]

Rofl, feeling sooo nostalgic seeing old songs I used to like at the time up here by Pink, Madonna, Samantha Mumba, Dream etc. I was only in the 7th grade back then. :o

[bat1990]

Ahhh...when radio used to play good music. This was right around the time I began getting into popular music. Look at how far Pop radio has fallen in 8 years. Ageism, rap overload...*sigh* it saddens me.

[Jayden]

It always depresses me when we go back in time. It really makes your realize how fast life goes by.

You know this is from 2000 when Mya is on the chart.

Hey, Adam, you should definitely start posting these again! It's cool to see what the chart was like way back when!

I tried posting these kind of things a few other times, but I'm not sure where they got moved. I couldn't find them in this forum nor the Nostalgia forum.

[Au$tin]

^I thought you did, but I couldn't find them either. Strange!

And I just noticed this 57 48 EMINEM **person who likes someone I don't so I resort to namecalling because it makes me feel superior** Interscope 431 246 185 5.1

WOW! LOL!

[Rodze]

Lol at the actual title of the song being filtered.
