People can argue whether 80's music was the best. But it wasn't only the music, it was also boombox, MTV, dress up mentality, party spirit etc. made the decade unique and unforgettable 😄

[nedflanders]

Germany - probably the only country in the world, where a song about GDP (gross domestic product, "Bruttosozialprodukt") can be a No. 1 Hit. ;)

[Nashr]

Spannend, wie manche Songs immer noch ständig irgendwo laufen und manche total vergessen sind, obwohl sie wochenlang auf 1 waren.

Bin ich froh darüber dass ich zu dieser Zeit jung war und mit dieser schönen Musik aufgewachsen bin. Danke an alle diese Stars die dieses schöne Musik gemacht haben und uns viel Spaß und Freude gemacht haben. Viel Dank an Euch alle!

Meine Kindheit komprimiert in 12 Minuten. Danke für die wundervollen Erinnerungen. :-)

What i find amazing is this, a lot of these are in a language that isn't German and yet they managed to stay #1 of X amount of weeks in Germany...Proves that music has no boundaries when it comes to nationality!

The German Charts were certainly varied, something for everyone there.

[SteinMeister]

Point of order: these were #1 in West Germany. In the east, Rockwell’s “Somebody’s watching me!” was #1 from 1949 to 1990.

[drkatel]

I’m impressed at how eclectic the German charts are. And glad to see they got Rick-rolled too.

The Falco's moments made me almost cry. Für immer und immer bist du bei mir, take care because I'm coming home...

We did something terribly wrong...

So much nostalgia here. I was 18 and landed in Germany in January of '84, stationed in Ulm for two years. Great times. Glad to see Falco so well represented in this. I have a lot of Falco's musik, still play it in my truck. Nostalgia is like a wave, washing over you and taking you somewhere else. I still remember Sabine...
And Solati...
And Daisy...

This recommendation was a pleasant surprise.

Bin ich eigentlich der einzige, der findet, dass die 70er - 90er teils echt super tolle Musikstücke raus kamen? Gefühlt ist irgendwie seit 2010 nur noch depressiver Einheitsbrei und ein Sänger hört sich an wie der vorherige

[stardomee]

I don't speak for myself if I say that Nena's 99 Red Balloons song sounds a lot better in German than in English

[antontirol]

Whether you liked the song or not, you could understand why it was at number 1. In the streaming age you nearly have a new number 1 every week by an artist you never heard of before and you forgot a month later.

[donovan]

I’m not even an 80s baby and this makes me miss the 80s.

[tvandang]

I grew up in Holland during that time. It was the best time of my childhood. Every song brought me back in time for a split moment. It was a bit unreal and sad that I can’t experience it again.
