| Other Years: | 1900s | 1900 | 1901 | 1902 | 1903 | 1904 | 1910s | 1920s | 1930s | 1940s | 1950s | 1960s | 1970s | 1980s | 1990s | 2000s |
This page lists the top songs of 1900 in the source charts. The way that the various charts are combined to reach this final list is described on the in the site generation page.
There are almost no charts from before 1920 so this list is heavily determined by very few entries.
Because of the way the site works the year assigned to these songs is liable to have been artificially pushed into the 20th Century. For example "Stars & Stripes Forever" was acutually released in 1897.
