Hello everything. At the end of January I posted the top 40 singles and albums of 2008 based on my points scoring system. Now we have come to the end of February it is time to update the charts. I will be counting down the top 100 in both charts this time.

 

The points scoring system works like this. Each week a song gets 1pt if it is at #100, 2pts if it is at #99 and so on. Songs also get bonus points if they climb or are a new entry/re-entry. The lowest of those will get 1pt, then next lowest 2pts and so on. The song at number 1 will get 10 bonus points, plus the number corresponsing to the total of climbers/new entries/re-entries.

 

So those are the rules. I will now begin the countdown. I will reveal #100 in the singles, then #100 in the albums. #99 singles, #99 albums and so on. Singles will be in red and albums in blue.

 

The countdown will start shortly. Feel free to comment as I go along.

I'm not really keen on this scoring system...

I mean, if a song has spent 3 weeks at #50, it will have more points than a song which just debuts at #1. Not very revealant of how popular a song really is.

If a song as spent 3 weeks at number 50 it will have 153pts. If a song debuts at number 1 it gets 100pts, plus 10 bonus making 110 and say that week there are 30 songs which climb or are new entries/re-entries. It would get 30 bonus points because it is the 30th highest of those, plus 30 more because it is number 1. Making a total of 170pts. Meaning it would have more points then the song at number 50.
