Top 50 Hits of 1958/Top 50 Songs of 1958
| Billboard Year-End Hot 100 charts. Note
that from 1956 to 1958, Billboard only compiled top 50 charts, and from
1950 to 1955, they compiled only top 30 charts. What is now the Hot
100 existed for nearly fifteen years as numerous charts, tracking and
ranking the most popular singles of the day in several areas. The methods
and policies by which this data is obtained and compiled have changed
many times throughout the chart's history. Billboard has also changed
its Hot 100 policy regarding "two-sided singles" several times.
During periods in which singles sales were strong, the Hot 100 allowed
both sides of a single (A-side and B-side) to chart together (occupying
the same position), provided that both sides were receiving significant
radio airplay. Pre-Hot 100 charts listed A-and-B-sides together. For
more detailed information on how the Billboard compiled the charts,
see the Wikipedia article "Billboard
Hot 100". NOTE: We
