US Billboard Chart Requests

[DrTravel]

Greetings,

Echoing the post from Torgo98 above (as I would also like copies of those referenced sheets), would anyone also have a copy of the Pop ME (1955-1958) spreadsheet? I believe all three (1940-1954, 1955-1958 and BU 1959-1985) were posted together several years ago, although perhaps in a different thread(?).

Also, thank you to all who have posted information, charts, files, etc. to these forums. I only discovered them recently and have been like a kid in a candy store ever since. I know I speak for many here when I say that all of your efforts are greatly, GREATLY appreciated. Many many thanks!

I'm the creator of all three of these spreadsheets.

You can find Bubbling Under Charts 1959-1985.xlsx here:

Haven't posted anything for awhile - am currently working on Cash Box R&B and C&W charts. Have them completed up to February 1994 (magazine folded in November 1996) and hope to have them finished by the end of the year.

Thank you so much, not only for posting these once again but for all your efforts in the past, as Mr. Mockingbird has already said. We are forever in your debt for your wonderful work.

Some months passed, did they complete the missing positions?


"Can someone check if they updated the dance club songs breakouts from 11/05/2019 and 20/07/2019...

The original threads are missing some positions....

I think that they could fixed it now...

Thanks!!!"

[trebor]

For some reason, only the Top 50 is displayed in its horrific new design...
This is the currently available data:

11 May 2019 (from 18 May 2019 LW positions)
51 - Starry Eyes - Young Bombs
52 - So Am I - Ava Max

20 July 2019 (from 27 July 2019 LW positions & 3 August 2019 2W positions)
51 - You Really Started Something - Dionne Warwick
55 - Señorita - Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello

[Gore101]

Thanks Trebor!

Still looking for positions 54 (11 may) and 52, 53 (27 july)...

[AndiIversen]

Thanks Trebor!

Still looking for positions 54 (11 may) and 52, 53 (27 july)...

July 27:

#53 Body to Body - MK

[Gore101]

July 27:

#52 Truth Hurts - Lizzo
#53 Body to Body - MK



Sorry, I writed wrong: I need the breakouts for 18 May 2019 and 20 july 2019.


Thanks!

[Mr. Mockingbird]

Does anyone have the complete Dance/Disco Top 80 for December 17, 1983? The Billboard online archive only goes to position 50, and Biz only has a scattering of positions. If someone could please post, I would greatly appreciate it. Many thanks in advance!

[trebor]

I'm appalled (again) to see that more charts have been reduced in size after the overhaul.
A whole bunch of artists and songs seem to have lost their chart links and do no longer get their assigned chart positions and show as a blank or just don't even appear in the data base!

[Mr. Mockingbird]

Many thanks for this information. I share your sentiments regarding the status of the online database. When one of the charts the publication is most known for (the Hot 100) returns zero hits when searching the online database (Biz), you know there are some issues. (And yes, all of the Hot 100 charts are -- at least last time I looked -- available in full from the chart archive, but the inability to search for specific titles/dates/runs in the database makes no sense to me.) Oh well, better put away my soapbox before I really get going... Thanks again!

[trebor]

I really try to understand that data migration may turn into a mess (which it did; at least twice).
But for paying customers facing the loss of historical data, THAT's really excruciating!

Disco/Dance Top 80 / 17 December 1983

? = These entries are not shown when searched for

I work at a UK University and we have access to 'Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive: Music, Radio and The Stage' by ProQuest. They have scanned complete issues from many magazines including Billboard and while some pages are missing, Page 38 of the 17 Dec issue is not so the missing positions are shown below.

71 (52) Nena - 99 Luftballons
73 (67) Madonna - Holiday/Lucky Star
74 (65) Eurythmics - Love Is Strange
77 (69) Gary’s Gang - Making Music
80 (68) - The Fixx - One Thing Leads To Another

Hi,Could someone post HOT100 Sales & Airplay chart for 1987/3/7,1987/6/6,1988/6/4,1988/7/9,1988/11/26 and 1989/5/6?

Thanks in advance!

I realize the above post is from several years ago, but I am looking to fill in missing positions for the four Hot 100 Airplay charts bolded above, as well as two additional R&B Airplay charts (Dec. 2, 1989 and Nov. 24, 1990). I will post what I was able to come up with for each of these charts (based on the before/after charts) in the hopes that someone might have the missing data. As always, thanks in advance for any additional information that can be provided!

[P.S. ~ This is my first attempt to post charts like this, so apologies if the formatting is a bit off…]

The link will vanish after about 30 days. Again, these come from the ProQuest archive. I don't mind sharing some but just to forestall queries, I will not be able to just download all of it and share that. I'll do small sections of issues, like the above only.
