The day of the hit parade

In the concept “hit parade”, which is used to denote a list of the best songs and musical works at a certain moment, has its own holiday. This day of the year is January 4. Why this particular date? It turns out that this has been the case since the distant 1936, when one American magazine compiled the first ever hit parade of music records that flew like “hot cakes”. Billboard magazine was the first to publish the “100 hit” songs every last week of the year.

Various characteristics are taken into account to compile charts

In today’s music composition industry charts different characteristics are taken into account: from the number of sales to the number of downloads on the Internet or the frequency of the appearance of a single or an album on the radio during a specific period of time.
