the whole "Popular music chart" system has changed completely in the last 20-30 years..
Back in the day, the #1 song, heck the top 10 songs.. at any given time.. would most likely be known by anyone and everyone.
But today, the musical audience is so fragmented. so many channels, so many genres. I can't name a single top 10 song right now. probably doesn't help that I don't listen to the "Radio" anymore.
same can be said for T.V. used to be with just the 3 network channels that were out there, an audience for any given show was much larger.. now with all the damn stations we have now. Even a successful show, only garners a small fraction of the audience older shows used to.
