Radio + Record News magazine first published the UK airplay chart in 1975 and continued to do so until November of 1978. Then Record Business magazine published their own version of the UK airplay chart starting in March of 1978 until 1983. Since I don't have access to any of those issues from those respective magazines, I will list all of the UK airplay charts starting from the very first issue of Eurotipsheet magazine (which was later renamed Music & Media magazine). The time frame of the UK airplay #1's I have goes as follows:

70s #1's from Radio + Record News and Record Business Magazines
80 to 83 - the UK Radio Airplay chart from Record Business Magazine
84/03/19 to 86/04/12 - the UK Radio Airplay Report from Eurotipsheet Magazine
86/04/19 to 90/11/17 - the UK Radio Airplay Report from magazine renamed Music & Media
90/11/24 to 91/26/10 - the UK Playlist Airplay chart from Music Week magazine
91/02/11 to now - the UK Radio Airplay from Music Week/Hit Music first compiled by Media Monitor, then Nielsen Music Control & in the most recent years, Radiomonitor.

Starting with the '70s from 1978 onwards....

Still shocks me that Still Falling For You spent 6 weeks at #1 yet only reached #11 officially.

Posted by: Cody S. Berry 1st June 2017, 06:07 PM

The #1 turnout for airplay compared to the official charts seems similar to the US, except the other way around - a lot of BillBoard chart toppers haven't made the top 15 even.

Posted by: gooddelta 1st June 2017, 06:20 PM

Ha, I love the fact that Here's Where The Story Ends by Tin Tin Out was #1 here on airplay for SEVEN weeks despite only peaking at #7 officially. Such a tune, it's definitely one of the songs that springs to my mind when I think of radio in 1998, along with The Corrs and Madonna's Ray Of Light (presumably an airplay #2 behind Tin Tin Out) so I'm not surprised to learn of its saturation airplay.

Stranded and Looking For Love too - classics that were hammered by radio <3 Surprised Truly, Madly, Deeply never topped the airplay chart.

No dance songs topping the airplay chart from 2006 to 2008 is surprising Even a five week number 1 (Basshunter and DJ Mental Theo's Bazzheadz - Now You're Gone) doesn't make it, although I remember someone on Buzzjack said that was shunned by radio 1 for being too cheesy like a lot of Clubland and clublandy records.

Even more surprising is only one dance song topping the airplay chart in 2014 (assuming Rather Be is not a dance song which I am not sure about) when we had the most dance songs at number 1 in the official charts of any year if I am correct.

Those 3 #1s for Scissor Sisters make me happy. A band I still miss.

Posted by: M4NG0 1st June 2017, 10:36 PM

Surprising that 'Wannabe' wasn't an airplay Number 1 when many of their future singles unsurprisingly were.

Updated 2017 #1's. Only one more chart week left after this week's.

Fun that BANd Aid were airplay no1 in Jan 85 & Jan 86!

Thanks for posting, first time I've seen this. Noticeable that the amount of radio toppers decreases from 1992 with the modern format!

Posted by: Bjork 21st December 2017, 11:01 AM

crazy that Tin Tin Out had such massive airplay
but never translated into bigger sales or even a top 5

Posted by: Tom Kay Cat 🐱 22nd December 2017, 07:03 PM

Awesome stuff, thank you. Really interesting to see The Pogues AND Mariah go to number one here, albeit years after release

Do you have the full chart archives then NPU? I'm really interested in "turntable hits", from 1984 to 1989 that didn't make the sales Top 40.

Glad Shiver topped the airwave charts.

It was MASSIVE on radio - turntable hit.

Posted by: ❄The Snow. 22nd December 2017, 07:30 PM

Why were there so many different ones for the years 1986-1989 I wonder?

'Here's Where The Story Ends' I remember hearing a lot on the radio in the late 90s when I was young! Along with 'Rotterdam', 'Kiss Me', 'Breakfast In Tiffany's' and 'You Get What You Give'.

Also great to see Brandon Flowers getting one at number one with Crossfire! As far as I can see no Killers songs made it though. Surprised Human never managed it.

Really interesting to see songs that struggled to reach the top 10 yet were no.1 on airplay for weeks. If airplay had been merged with sales like the states it would have made for some interesting charts and may seen some songs get deservedly higher peaks.

Happy no.1 for 16 weeks though I suppose I shouldn't be surprised at it was played to death for ages at the time but still that is really impressive.

Really interesting to see songs that struggled to reach the top 10 yet were no.1 on airplay for weeks. If airplay had been merged with sales like the states it would have made for some interesting charts and may seen some songs get deservedly higher peaks.

Happy no.1 for 16 weeks though I suppose I shouldn't be surprised at it was played to death for ages at the time but still that is really impressive.

Thanks for posting

Torn really did rule the radio

Also Lutricia McNeal , was always on capital .

Interesting that ‘when You’re Gone’ topped the radio
Charts many weeks after release.

The good old days when radio was varied and interesting .

Now updated with parts of 1978, 1979, and complete number ones for 2019 (thanks to Gezza), and 2020 (thanks to MJ2020).

Hope more number ones from the 70s and 80s resurface online.

Thanks to new found issues of Radio + Record News & Record Business magazines, I updated as much of 1978 and 1979 as I could

Updated with a little bit of 1979, the majority of 1980, and a significant part of 1981.
