#100 - Sweet Cream Ladies #100 - Let Me did i mention this year had two #100's? I think whoever made this list mighta brought back a little too much acid from the Woodstock festival I just realized why this happened. It’s because Billboard’s lazy inverse probably had a tie at #100, so they put both on the chart. It’s actually super easy to have that happen when you run a pure inverse like they did. Just another example of why their pre-‘92 YE charts are useless Really, all the Year-Ends Billboard has published themselves, even the ones from 1992 onward, are useless for purposes beyond the brief window that is list season in December/January. If I were ever to make a true retro list for a certain year, I'd always use these January-December lists primarily. I haven't gotten a chance to say this yet, but kudos to you and inverse for all the work you've put into these lists, and the work you'll put into whatever others you'll get to. This has become easily one of my favorite threads on Pulse thanks to your efforts.

Alright here's the 1966 list. Honestly the original list is one of the better early billboard lists it seems to actually get the start and end period right and there's no ridiculous mistakes anywhere so you can kind of think of my version as just an alternate instead of a correction. Also this year was B-A-N-A-N-A-S the concept of longevity flew right out the window and so we had top 10 hits with Nine- and Eight- and even Six-week chart runs (peaking at #3 no less). A few of the 9 week songs on this list weren't caught between years they were actually the full tiny chart runs! Also notice the average of the stretch from 40 to 50 is LITERALLY 10 WEEKS

"Wipe Out" is repeating from the 1963 list, not the 1965 one, however the indicator is just any song making it for the second time. Doesn't have to be consecutive.

Songs that made the original and missed here: #72 - Almost Persuaded #86 - Woman #87 - You Baby #92 - Baby Scratch My Back #94 - The More I See You #99 - Shapes Of Things #100 - 634-5789 (Soulsville, USA) "Almost Persuaded" was this year's crazy low peak and I honestly wish it had made it but it just missed at #102. This is the first 60's year I've done where the original list was actually totally fine and you can think of this one as more of just an alternate formula than a correction. Mine favors a strong top 10 run where the original favors longevity a bit more. However I'm still glad I made this one for the sake of completion & comparison to other years

I haven't gotten a chance to say this yet, but kudos to you and inverse for all the work you've put into these lists, and the work you'll put into whatever others you'll get to. This has become easily one of my favorite threads on Pulse thanks to your efforts. Agreed. Thanks, inverse and gikem, for compiling and sharing the biggest hits of each year from a more meaningful calendar period. I also find it very interesting.

It’s mikerivera that’s compiling them primarily, not me (outside of the 2021 midpoint list I recently did in the YE thread), but thanks for the shoutout anyway :)

You know, nearly every “great” year in Billboard features a classic at #1. 1976. 1983. 2004. 2015. 2020. And yet, despite being in contention for the best year ever, 1966 doesn’t just have a terrible YE1, it has literally the least representative YE1 that year could ever dream of having.
At least Wouldn’t It Be Nice made it on this list though. Pet Sounds is one of the greatest albums of all time, and it’s always nice to get more representation for it. Plus having that, Sloop John B and Good Vibrations on the chart better represents this year as the peak for The Beach Boys

But I haven't listened to most of the lists before 1999 so I guess technically it's possible there's something better out there.
But that years #1 isn't good either or at least it's pretty controversial.
Believe me I really wanted my formula to come up with a different #1 but it wasn't meant to be having 5 weeks at #1 in a year with no stability was just too strong. But also seeing "Wouldn't It Be Nice" and "Mother's Little Helper" on the top 100 makes this list worth it

I was mainly listing years that are universally agreed as being “great.” 2009, at least from what I can tell, is probably the most divisive year in terms of people’s opinions. Half will tell you it was when pop music was at it’s most fun and iconic, the other half will tell you it’s dated club trash and is borderline unlistenable. Compare that to 2004, which is stocked to the brim with beloved classics (because, honestly, who doesn’t like Yeah, Hey Ya, Numb, Toxic, or any of the other dozen or so classics)

Before we move on from the 1966 list I found a really annoying fact that Wouldn't It Be Nice was probably song #101 from that list.
I'm pretty sure that Billboard used something very close to a 100-1 inverse (#1 = 100, #2 = 99 etc.) & I went and calculated the points of the songs around the cutoff. All of these were 11 week chart runs for the record besides Yellow Submarine.
I Fought The Law - 785 points Yellow Submarine - 779 points Hungry - 775 points Shapes Of Things - 775 points Zorba The Greek - 774 points 634-5789 (Soulsville, USA) - 766 points.
Wouldn't It Be Nice had 765 points! Ugh! Also they actaully put "Zorba The Greek" above "Shapes Of Things" who wants to bet they just made a counting mistake lol

But yeah, 2004 is universally regarded as the best year of the 2000s, and possibly the best Year End ever. I would have to say 2005 was the most divisive year.

I think 2005 isn’t so much divisive as it is hit or miss to the absolute extreme. For every Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Mr Brightside, there was a My Humps and Play. It’s like 2013 and 2017 on steroids. 2007 is in the same boat btw; it just wasn’t *as* extreme as 2005. I would actually say 2006 is the worst year of the decade. 2008 is a lot like 2014 for me; I don’t think the bad songs are really that terrible for the most part (definitely not to the same extent as the 3 years previous or the 2 years after), and what it lacks in 10/10 songs, it makes up for by having a lot of 8s and 9s

I would rank the 2000s as follows:
2004 (best) 2003 2001 2009 2000 2005 2002 2007 2006 2008 (worst)
I was born in 1988, and I'm pretty sure the best Year End lists in my lifetime were 2004 and 1998.

I'll add a few thoughts to the discussion. 1. 2020 was not a great year for music. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad year for music (unlike pretty much everything else), and it was the best year for music since at least 2015 (possibly 2013, depending on what I come to think of 2015, the one year-end of the 2010s I have yet to listen to), but comparing it to 1983 or even 2004 is ridiculous.
2. I'd actually add 2008 as an example of a hit-and-miss year for pop music. The good music of 2008 was both plentiful and really dang good, but the same is true of the bad stuff. I expected 2013 to be really hit-and-miss, but now that I'm almost done listening to the Year-End list, it's less extreme than I thought it'd be. At least half of the year's hits fall in the 6-8/10 range for me, with the really good and really bad stuff being less prevalent than I was thinking heading in.

Here’s how I would rank the 2000s:
2004 2001 2007 2003 2002 2000 2009 2008 2005 2006
2005 is definitely also one of the other worst years of the 2000s, while some of the best is truly the best, some of the worst is absolutely bottom of the barrel when it comes to the worst of the 2000s.

How is the charts done...can someone explain the point system. From 1992 through the present, we try to estimate the real points a song earns based on its position on the year end chart. Pre-92, it’s an inverse system

Most of the popular songs of the late 2000s reeked of immaturity and repugnance.

Also is there a list for 1990? mikerivera will probably make it once he wraps up the '80s. Don't expect it to be better than Billboard's original list, though, as I expect I'm Your Baby Tonight, The Way You Do The Things You Do, From A Distance, Because I Love You (The Postman Song), and probably Cherry Pie to all make the cut given their peaks in late 1990. IMO, all these songs are terrible, and will make an already pretty awkward year for the charts look much worse.

Then again, that whole period from 1987-1991 was very bad. I wouldn't mind if we skipped those years.

I'm confused if billboard counted airplay and sales in the 80s it...how would the radio be factored in speaking that they only used playlisting and not impressions?

Next one that I do will be 1964 and the question is will the Beatles get at least 10 as opposed to their 9 from the original? If you look at mike's 2018 list Cardi B has 10 songs and so the results of this list well determine the record under this format

Just replace impression numbers with the total times it was played. Let’s say song A was played 10,000 times and was listened to by 1 million people, while song B was played 9,500 times and was listened to by 1.05 million people. Under the current formula, song B would be more popular, but under the original, song A would be ranked higher

Cause I found someone mistakes between the accurate Arbitron and the less than accurate R&R chart.

Here's my 2012 list generated with Crownnote (btw for Cruise what I did was count the original for it's first chart run and I will count the remix for it's second one, so that I don't have a remix that came out in 2013 on a 2012 YE list because that would be absurdly stupid.)
