Music Central's Top 150 Songs Of 1999!



It's that time of the year again! It's time to look back at the year in music that was 1999 and wonder just what in the hell we were thinking! (kidding) It's time to take a retrospective look at the music that charted on Music Central's Top 50 Countdown in 1999. It's the Top 150 Songs Of 1999! All a song had to do to qualify to be on this chart was appear on the Top 50 at some point between January 1, 1999 and December 24, 1999. All totalled, 188 songs appeared on the Top 50 in that period of time. These are the Top 150 of those songs.

The ranking system for this year's Top 150 is much like last year's. I gave points to songs based on their chart position on the Top 50 each week. A song at #50 received 1 point that week. A song at #49 got 2 points. A song at #48 got 3 points, and so on...up to the #1 song, which got 50 points for the week -- plus 5 bonus points for being at #1. If you have any further questions about the ranking system or any general questions about the year-end chart, please feel free to e-mail me at top50countdown@angelfire.com. Now, let's move on to the good part! Here's Music Central's Top 150 songs of 1999:
