Songs
The biggest records on UK Singles Chart that entered the chart in the 1990s, ranked by Record Power. Click a column to re-sort.
Record Power is the song's own figure: each week on the chart is worth its position as a share of a full chart — a #1 week is 3.5, a #21 week 1.8, a #100 week 0.1 — added up over the run. No credit split and no discount for what else the artist had charting, so a duet and an album-bomb single count the same as any other record. What a song earned each artist is on the artist pages.
