People like to say "the '90s musically began with Nirvana", that really isn't true. You still saw a lot of 1980s trends like uptempo Techno-Dance House Music or Glam Rock Balladry still clogging up the charts in 1991 and the 1st half of 1992. The '90s musically didn't begin until Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You" or around the 4th Quarter of 1992. The definite signifier of the '90s was 'Freak Me' by Silk; a raunchy mid tempo R&B song peaking at no.1 for multiple weeks in the Spring of 1993 was surprising. A track like Freak Me would've never hit no.1 on the Pop Chart 18 months prior because it wouldn't have received enough Radio Adds to chart that high. 1998 was the end of the '90s, 1999 musically isn't really the '90s in terms of Pop trends. So many brand new music acts came out that year Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Nsync, BSB's peak, Destiny's Child. Those music acts are Y2K Music (1999-2002), most of them rose to prominence in the tail end of 1998- early 1999 or the year 2000 and generally saw a notable decline in popularity after 2002. They were high peak-short longevity music acts.
@blacknetsmed…..you are right on through and through!! With that said, in Ricky Martin’s case, he was already popular in the Latin music scene before his English breakthrough, and continued to be back in the Latin scene afterwards. I like also how well you put the Y2K music period. In my opinion, the events of 9/11 in 2001 marked a before and after not only in the music scene but in popular culture in general. Very well said overall!!
Disagree completely. When most people think of the 90's, they think of late 90's fashion, music, culture etc. Even though the latter years are in the 2000s, 1997-2002 was the pinnacle of everything 90's. Apart from the odd early 90s rock banger and mid 90s rnb song, late 90s pop is the archetype.

It's funny how the US charts were dominated by rnb while European charts were dominated by dance music. Also by 1997 you can see a change with Pop music dominating big time.
I grew up with 90s music but I was into country for the majority of the decade. For me, "I Swear" and "I Can Love You Like That" will always be hits for John Michael Montgomery, "Nobody Knows" will always be one for the late, great Kevin Sharp, and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" will be one for Mark Chesnutt.
Top 25 pop songs in 1992, same year as I was born. Wonder whose number one? Edit: I love being a boy band fangirl because it was "End of the Road" by Boyz II Men.
So many boring ballads. I love the 90's music for its amazing Rock, Alternative, Dance/Trance/House, Pop, World music but this American charts doesn't show it at all. Did Americans really like all those boring trash in the 90's?
I don't like these Billboard charts, too tied to the tastes of Americans. If I look at the 25 best-selling singles in Italy in 1990 we find: (except for the songs sung in Italian) In brackets the highest position in the standings: 3. Another day in Paradise - Phil Collins (Max 2) 5. Vogue - Madonna (1) 6. I can't stand it - Twenty 4 Seven feat. Captain Hollywood (2) 7. I've been thinking about you - Londonbeat (1) 8. Nothing compares 2 U - Sinead O'Connor (1) 9. I'm your baby tonight - Whitney Houston (1) 14. Praying for time - George Michael (3) 15. Justify my love - Madonna (3) 16. To be number one - Giorgio Moroder Project (2) 17. Enjoy the silence - Depeche Mode (5) 18. The Power - Snap (4) 19. Everybody everybody - Black Box (7) 21. Violence of summer (Love's taking over) - Duran Duran (4) 22. Ultimo imperio - Atahualpa (2) 24. The Great song of indifference - Bob Geldof (8) 25. All around the world - Lisa Stansfield (3) ... 97. Hold on - Wilson Phillips (23) However not a great year 1990. Only Coolio finished the year at number 1 both in the USA and in Italy. (although with us in 1996)
That's a good question. Well, to answer that, its fair to explain that 1990 and 1991 the charts (including Year End) were still measured as the 80s (before early 1992, sales and airplay were send to Billboard from every radio and discography store), since 1992 soundscan were at charge to coordinate the amount of airplay and sales from discographies and radios, so the points were more according to the reality. From 1992, the weekly and Year End charts were made according points. And that meant a real change for musical trends in the industry (pop and rock were never the same in terms of mainstream trend and new forms of musical style stepped out of the shadows as urban R&B/Hip Hop turned dominant for this decade and the 2000s in the USA).
In the USA hip hop and R&B became mainstream. Europe were far more diverse in terms of musical styles for the public (rock, pop, eurodance, indie, new age, etc.).
Man I miss the 90's. 😥 wish I can go back to those good times.
My high school, college, and beyond years ❤️🎼❤️
What a fun trip down memory lane. Thank you!!
1994 ------- Ace of Base Era
Only The Beatles and Mariah dominated the Hot 100 in such a way! I love '90s music! Great video!!
Beatlles were garbage that the rich record label forced onto people
Mariah, i don't think so
Madonna, Whitney Houston......,...,...,...,....,....,, Mariah Carey
@@gasparfernandez1301 Mariah scored the most No.1 hits in the '90s. That's a fact! Sorry!
Junior high through college. Best years ever.
Black or white suffered from being released at the end of 1991 so its sales have been split into 2 years.
Mariah Carey wow every year
Wow there’s a lot of Mariah Carey & Janet Jackson ❤
Mariah and Janet definitely dominated the USA charts back in the 90s from 1990-1999 !

@blacknetsmed I guess you could say the same about nu-metal as well.

the fact that Mariah Carey was in every year except for 1997 and 1999 is hysterical
I grew up with 90s music but I was into country for the majority of the decade. For me, "I Swear" and "I Can Love You Like That" will always be hits for John Michael Montgomery, "Nobody Knows" will always be one for the late, great Kevin Sharp, and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" will be one for Mark Chesnutt.
the pip stars did a better version of those songs
Top 25 pop songs in 1992, same year as I was born. Wonder whose number one? Edit: I love being a boy band fangirl because it was "End of the Road" by Boyz II Men.

Quick question how are the top 25 songs determined

@@ignacioarredondosalvo109 wow thanks so much for explaining 🙏🏿
Where is vengaboys in 1999 ???
Thees a re some grat song
Ace of base owned 94
まらいあきゃりーおねぇちゃんびじんですねー
98
96 should've had tupac
Horrible decade. Way too much dull R n B.
Racist
In the USA hip hop and R&B became mainstream. Europe were far more diverse in terms of musical styles for the public (rock, pop, eurodance, indie, new age, etc.).
Yeah the early and mid 90s had a lot of dull rnb tbh. Like the other guy said, Europe had it much better, as we got britpop, euro dance etc
@@ignacioarredondosalvo109 Europe more diverse? You have got to be kidding. In the USA many pop songs were successful
