I got inspiration from mikerivera who is doing a fantastic job with the pop Jan-Dec year ends. I am deciding to do one for R&B. The concept is the same as the pop one. I am doing the charts as if the YE was the Jan-Dec, instead of the ever-changing cut off date BB uses.

I didn't realize it was ever-changing. I've always known it to be the last chart dated in November. What else has it been, or is it now?

It's me doing it how BB should've done it. It makes no sense if Part Lime spent 6 weeks at #1 and then they cut the date off. Also, I thought at this time the cut off was in Ocotber

Wtf are Hall & Oates doing on the R&B charts?

Come on now, "I Can't Go For That" goes in. Keep in mind both De La Soul and MF Doom sampled it, and the bassline for "Billie Jean" was lifted from it.

I didn't know that about October, wow. Regardless no matter what the cutoff is, something is going to be #1 and then get cut off right at that point.

I didn't realize it was ever-changing. I've always known it to be the last chart dated in November. What else has it been, or is it now?

In the 60s, they usually cut it off around 1 or 2 weeks early, then just didn’t count the last week or two at all. The exception was 1966, when they actually did do the full year. In 1972, they cut it off the last week of November and counted that December for 1973. In 1973, they cut it off two weeks earlier than that (so mid-November), and counted the last 6 weeks to 1974. Then in 1974, they cut it off the last week of October. That cutoff remained in place (with a few variations) through 1984. Then, starting with the 1985 list, Billboard got really wacky. Any song that peaked in the previous year’s December through the current year’s November would have its entire run counted until the final week of December. Which led to situations like I’ve Had the Time of My Life placing on the 1987 YE and Heaven is a Place on Earth on the 1988, even though they debuted the same week and peaked at #1 in back to back weeks. That system continued through 1990, which instituted a hard cutoff the last week of November (but counted the entire chart runs going back to 1989 for eligible songs). In 1991, the window you’re familiar with was finalized (until 2018)

This whole list is filled with classics from top to bottom! So many classics in one year! Yes, even the cringy but catchy song at #9

[jenglisbe]

I guess I'd blocked out that "Piano in the Dark" only peaked at #8. Wow.

I assume "The Way You Make Me Feel" was stuck between years.

[phieaglesfan712]

The Way You Make Me Feel was probably the worst Michael Jackson song ever. (Ranks up there with the Rick Roll song as in my worst of 1988 list.)

I’d be willing to bet My Prerogative would have been #1 if the run was counted all in one year.

I’m surprised Giving You the Best That I Got was that high. Don’t get me wrong, it’s one of my favorites, but I didn’t expect a #3 ranking.

Anything by Anita Baker was huge in the r&b format in the 80s. She was an "instant add" on R&B radio

Sexual Healing being the top R&B song feels so perfect, especially knowing it was Gaye’s final hit before his tragic murder

[Private Dancer]

I need a tie breaker.

[phieaglesfan712]

Just do the 70s, lol.

So is the difference here just that it's the start of 1980 to the end of 1989, as opposed to adding in a bit of 1979 and missing a bit of 1989?

I used 1980-1989. I didn't use anything in the 70s. It's like how BB has few songs from the later yrs of the 80s on the chart, and more songs from the earlier years.

It was an insanely massive hit in the urban market. Most weeks at #1 since the merger in 1958! For the first time in 4 years, it seemed like Marvin was actually back in the spotlight. Maybe it was the fact that he left Motown and actually sounded like his old self… Great song!

[Private Dancer]

^^To add it also debuted in the top ten and was the fastest song to reach #1

I know he likes the Jackson 5 and might be suprised or not at this turnout.

I think the Jackson 5 are the only acts in the history of the chart to place 4 songs in the top ten of the YE of a year

[jenglisbe]

I do like the Jackson 5, though of the ones in this top 10 only "I Want You Back" is a fave lol
