Billboard Hot 100 #36 - 1993

[Vizier]

Poll 36! After a big lead for one song, and another overtaking, a third song came up and led us to a two-way tie for victory in 1992, with I'm Too Sexy and Baby Got Back being chosen to represent 1992 in the bracket! R&B has a decent hold on a lot of the #1s through the mid-90's, and after that it's a short term of bubblegum pop before Hip Hop takes control, as it seems to now.

1993 gives us 10 #1s, by 9 different artists. Will the small number of songs provide any changes to the outcomes? We shall see...

My vote goes to "Informer, alkjdlkfjlkejrlkeh yeah, a licky boom boom down" ;D

[Vizier]

Yeah, I'm a bit conflicted this year, oddly enough. When I was researching the polls early on (You know... staring at the years thinking about how I'd vote), I was pretty sure that I'd go for Snow too, but... A Whole New World's a pretty decent song, too... and Dreamlover has played so much at my job over the years that it's not too bad to me, anymore... Also, Meat Loaf!

Tough call, one of my rare days not casting my vote at the start. Also, I hope nobody's too put off that I vote in my own polls.... I still will during the bracket rounds, too, so... sorry if that bothers anyone?

hey, even though i've let my ppv themes poll die due to lack of interest, i voted in my own poll too. so i have no problem with that sort of thing.

this year did not have many good songs, so i'll throw disney a bone and pick the song from aladdin.

About 8 hours to go, and Mr. Loaf has a lead, followed by Snow and the Aladdin song.

[WWE Trademarked My Name]

I went with Meatloaf. I think this has been the best selection of the 90's so far, but I thought 90, 91 and 92 were pretty weak.
