Your #61 would be my #1 for this Year.

Hehe Lifter. You'd be one of the people that would benefit greatly from listening to some of these songs on my blog. I reckon you'd be able to make lists for these years if you heard more older songs. The 90's wasn't that long ago you know. ;P

I Know, I may check that Blog out and without looking at the Blog I had a listen to Lighthouse Family (High) today and I quite like it, good to see it at #6.

On your Blog I voted 00's as the Best Decade.

Great list savagegrant! Just wondering, you mentioned something about using the AMR charts on your website when i was looking through your playlist (great songs, though a bit too much of darren hayes by my liking) is it possible to find out where you got those stats from? if so could you send a link but if not it doesn't matter. Just wondering that's all.


Can't wait to see the 2000's list, hoping to see plenty of pink and shakira!

I only got to properly look at your blog today, savagegrant. Looks great, haven't tried the jukebox yet, but tried the poll and looked through the charts and introduction to the site. Great work!

savagegrant

LIFTER500: I'm really glad you've discovered a new old song. Do keep going!

alleyt1989: And a cool video too.

matty_d: Thanks. The AMR stats were taken from David Kent's chart books, in particular "Australian Chart Book 1970-1992" and "Australian Chart Book 1993-2005" - http://www.austchartbook.com.au

392414: Thanks. I hope the players and jukebox work for you when you do try them.

Congrats on a great site savagegrant! I've tuned in to the jukebox a few times and it has sparked my memory on some partly-forgotten tracks.

savagegrant
Member

Thanks. That's the main aim of the site. To help people rediscover old songs that they like.

Hey Savagegrant

Love the site and spend a few hours at work listening to your jukebox ... is there a way to skip to the next song in the middle of the current one cause at the moment I have to drag status bar to the end and then it goes to the next random track. Is there a forward button I can press that goes to the next track?

Cheers
Tim.

savagegrant

Unfortunately not Tim. The skin I had to use with the player to get the playlist to look good has omitted the forward and backward buttons. Maybe one day I can learn how to skin the player and put them back in.

Great chart, only about 3 songs I don't know but glad you pointed them out so I can listen to them.

savagegrant
Member

Tim: I've added the QuickKeys plugin to the jukebox. You can now press the right arrow key to skip to the next song. Thanks for the suggestion. It's easy to overlook things like that so feedback about the site and players is much appreciated. By the way, I've converted all the lists into tables much like my old site and the 1990 list has full ARIA stats.

Great list! Frozen would be my number one for 1998 as well, the album Ray Of Light was definately a highlight of Madonna's career in my opinion (of course she has had many).

I've added an ARIA Top Singles of 1998 list to my site.

Hear them all here - http://top100singles.blogspot.com/2011/05/aria-top-singles-of-1998.html

In an attempt to determine the site members' favourite AMR/ARIA Top 100 charting songs of each year (and eventually of all time), I'd like to start calculating scores for every song from submitted lists. Simply post an ordered list of any size you like, containing only songs from the eligible songs list below. Your list can be changed at any time.

A song is only eligible for one yearly list and it is always the year in which the song debuted in the AMR/ARIA Top 100 Singles chart with the following exceptions...

- If the song debuted more than 2 years after release then the release year is chosen.
- If the song does not enter the Top 50 in its first chart run but re-enters the charts the following year and makes the Top 50 then that year is chosen.
