Hi all,
I started compiling this recently, and wondered if this was something that could be of interest here. Basically I check the Spotify daily chart for Great Britain for each day, and then pick out only those tracks that are at least 10 years old (I generally refer to the date of its chart debut to decide a track's age, but for non-singles or those older tracks that didn't chart at the time but became classics later I sometimes use other criteria to avoid any nonsensical inclusions/exclusions). If people are interested in this then I can endeavour to maintain this on here every day, with a double on Fridays to also include a retro chart derived from the OCC's weekly official chart. I can stop including exact numbers of streams if the mods wish, but have included them for this post to show what I am compiling at the moment. I would also like to back calculate the retro charts for every day in the past that had a Spotify daily chart, but they're only available on the spotifycharts website from 1st Jan 2017 onwards, so that be the practical limit for how far back I can go, unless I can find older spotify charts elsewhere. Here's what the charts would look like for the last few days, obviously they will vary in length from day to day. And note that the number one on these days, Mt Brightside, is on course to enter the top 50 of the OCC Official chart again this week, for its 51st Top 100 stint and its 209th Top 100 week, that's a combined total of 4 years in the top 100! Tuesday 2nd July 2019 1. ~ The Killers Mr Brightside 134181 41st 2. ~ Oasis Wonderwall 69131 110th 3. ^ Elton John Rocket Man (I Think Its Going To Be A Long, Long Time) 62136 136th 4. ^ Queen Bohemian Rhapsody 61431 139th 5. ^ Queen Dont Stop Me Now 59160 146th 6. ^ Oasis Dont Look Back In Anger 57736 156th 7. ^ Toto Africa 56192 162nd 8. !

Perhaps a weekly chart instead?
Although the chart still wouldnt change much week on week, it seems to be the same retro songs every week that stream well. |

I imagine apart from during big events the songs would have generally a similar order?

There's always Throwback Thursday every week too to shake up the order somewhat for one day but other than that it's always Mr Brightside, Wonderwall, Africa, Bohemian Rhapsody et al holding up well.

Good to see my BJSC 'Legends' entry,Mr Blue Sky,is on here. It's certainly approriate for the change in weather we've had recently.
And Africa by Toto would have been boosted by the BBC4 documentary on yacht rock in which Toto were heavily featured. |

Toto's Africa has always been a big catalogue seller though, I just don't get why

Because it is one of the best songs of all time x
(I believe it was prominently featured on an episode of 'Family Guy' which won't have hurt its continuing relevance, although it's not like 'Surfin' Bird' in that it's a totally forgotten oddity that FG brought into the mainstream of course). |

Just had a look at it. Some of them aren't that old really, more of a nudge back than a throwback. I wonder which tracks will make it into our retro chart tomorrow? Is there a different TBT? I'm seeing 70s songs from Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, The Supremes etc. |

Is there a different TBT? I'm seeing 70s songs from Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, The Supremes etc. Ha, I nearly asked the same thing, as I found that one first too, despite being in the UK. On with our Throwback Thursday Retro Chart, and it seems to have been the predicatble favourites who got a lift this Thursday, particularly Whitney, even though she was quite far down the TBT list, so I presume cherry picking is the norm for people looking at the TBT playlist. Thursday 4th July 2019 1. ~ The Killers Mr Brightside 132900 46th 2. ~ Oasis Wonderwall 72701 102nd 3. ~ Queen Bohemian Rhapsody 64737 130th 4. * Whitney Houston I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) 64023 136th 5. ^ The Kooks Naοve 63660 137th 6. ^ Toto Africa 60642 150th 7. ! Queen Dont Stop Me Now 60485 152nd 8. ! Elton John Rocket Man (I Think Its Going To Be A Long, Long Time) 60212 155th 9. ! Oasis Dont Look Back In Anger 59162 161st 10. * Elton John Im Still Standing 57510 168th 11. * The Beatles Here Comes The Sun 55879 177th 12. ! Fleetwood Mac Everywhere 55007 180th 13. ! Toploader Dancing In The Moonlight 54415 185th 14. ! Journey Dont Stop Believin 54219 188th 15. * Bryan Adams Summer Of 69 54120 190th 16. ! Fleetwood Mac Go Your Own Way 53913 191st 17. ! Electric Light Orchestra Mr Blue Sky 53629 192nd 18. * Earth, Wind & Fire September 53285 195th 19. * Jason Mraz Im Yours 52213 198th As for the OCC'S weekly chart we have Mr Brightside re-entering at 54th, for its 209th week in the Top 100, meaning it has now reached a combined total of 4 years in the Top 100! But a top 1 isn't very satisfying, so let's look at the Spotify weekly chart too. 1. The Killers - Mr Brightside - 980451 - 41st 2. Oasis - Wonderwall - 528296 - 100th 3. Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody - 481585 - 116th 4. Queen - Don't Stop Me Now - 464221 - 127th 5. Elton John - Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time) - 462792 - 129th 6. Toto - Africa - 445499 - 138th 7. Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger - 437363 - 145th 8. The Kooks - Naive - 424658 - 158th 9. Fleetwood Mac - Everywhere - 414874 - 161st 10. Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way - 411228 - 165th 11. Journey - Don't Stop Believin' - 409550 - 167th 12. Toploader - Dancing In The Moonlight - 409043 - 168th 13. Electric Light Orchestra - Mr Blue Sky - 406495 - 170th 14. Bryan Adams - Summer Of '69 - 400125 - 172nd 15. The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun - 391409 - 182nd 16. The Killers - Human - 389999 - 183rd 17. Whitney Houston - I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) - 379658 - 187th 18. Earth, Wind & Fire - September - 377209 - 189th 19. Elton John - Tiny Dancer - 368952 - 199th |

Hopefully 'Go Your Own Way' starts consistently beating 'Everywhere' soon, its a much better song I think.
QUOTE Toto's Africa has always been a big catalogue seller though, I just don't get why 'Hold The Line' >>>>>> 'Africa' imo. Africa is less interesting imo and too middle of the road for me.QUOTE other than that it's always Mr Brightside, Wonderwall, Africa, Bohemian Rhapsody et al holding up well. It's a bit depressing that it's the same old retro songs doing best every week on Spotify |
