what's the club play based on? it;s such BS that songs like "4 minutes" and "stamp your feet"(plus "keep your body working" but its other week was in 07) that were #1 for more than one week aren't at the top. not that i'm shocked the system is flawed. the entire BB chart is lame! even the hot 100: it currently has two britney, two beyonce and two TI songs in the top ten

A good number of the singles had longevity on the chart. Some rose quickly and fell slowly. Or some rose slowly and fell slowly. In terms of this year, there haven't been that many singles that spent multiple weeks at the top though.

[johnparker]

They give points to each song, each week, based on it's chart position. So while a song may have been on the chart at #1 for a couple of weeks, if it fell out of the Top 25 fast other records that lingered around could have more points.

Not saying the system is good or bad. It's just what it is.

but then dont songs that came out in early 08 have a HUGE advantage?

Perhaps. But there might be very few, if any songs that stayed on the chart for that long.

I'd like to know who Bob Sinclar is paying off. He has placed a song in the Top 2 of the Billboard Year End Club chart for the last THREE years!!

2006: #1 - World Hold On
2007: #2 - Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now)
2008: #1 - Together

Sheesh!! LOL

LOL. I feel that "Love Generation", "World Hold On" and "Rock This Party" were better than some of the later ones.

the rosabel mix of "world hold on" is the only one of his songs i've ever heard out...EVER. :o

I used to hear that one too, the Full Intention mix of "Love Generation" and Mike Cruz's dub of "Rock This Party" a lot more than the other ones. I also occasionally heard that mash up of "World Hold On" and "People Hold On."

[Ace of Clubs]

Lets just put it this way: One mind Train is in the top 10. When you've stopped either laughing or scratching your head, you'll come to the realization that Billboard's Dance charts are a joke, unfortunately. They are an interesting joke, but a joke nonetheless.

You are right. I rarely - if ever - open or comment on the Billboard chart threads because their system and results are just ridiculous. I was somewhat curious to see their year-end chart here, and it just reinforces what I already thought: it's crap!

As for the Bob Sinclar thing, I understand the his success the previous two years with World Hold On and Rock This Party. I heard those mixes everywhere I went for a long time (and I enjoyed them). I can't, however, say that I have ever heard a DJ spin "Together" - I know I certainly haven't.
