Radio & Records/Mediabase Top 100 Songs

Radio & Records/Mediabase:

Top 100+ Songs (1973-2023)

Radio & Records was an independent trade publication which published a weekly pop songs chart as a competitor to Billboard magazine. It ran from October 3, 1973 to August 4, 2006, when it was taken over by Mediabase, who has continued the chart to present day.

This list is based on song’s most weeks at #1 on that chart. Tie-breakers are broken based on which songs have the most points in Dave’s Music Database. The list includes all songs to top the charts for six weeks or more.
