This is a project that I have been working on for the last few months and it is nearing its completion. It is a compilation of video footage from every song to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the main US music popularity chart. It begins at the beginning of the "rock era" in July of 1955 and ends with December of 2016, the time of upload. I thought it would be interesting to see how popular music has changed over the decades and to see the various TV shows that these artists performed their songs on through the years.
I tried to find video for every song, but there were some that I couldn't. If you know of a song that has video that I am missing, please let me know in the comments. Also, I used the Best Sellers in Stores chart for any song from before the Hot 100 was established, which was August of 1958.
Hope you enjoy this trip through music history. Thank you!
