more 1988 music :)
Ha! After quite a bit of searching I found the German single charts! Here you go:
http://www.musiksampler.de/single_charts.html
- Click on the year you graduated from high school in the middle of the page and get the list of 100 most popular songs (in Germany!) of that year.
- Bold the songs you like, strike through the ones you hate and underline your favorites. Do nothing to the ones you don't remember/care about.
The problem is, the page wouldn't let me copy the charts and I had to type them myself. Well, what a little nostalgia can make me do ;-)). Here we go:
