1990

Let's start with the first year of the major decade of our lives, 1990. I looked online and found the top 100 songs of 1990 (http://www.musicoutfitters.com/topsongs/1990.htm). However, a lot of the songs on this list have definltey NOT stood the test of time. Number 2 is "It Must Have Been Love" by Roxette..I've never heard of this song! So the first thing we have to do is go through this list or other ones that we can find and come up with songs that we find worthy enough as "hits" to run the fibonacci tests on.

just from this list alone, the songs that I would look at are:
5. "Vogue", Madonna
12. "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You", Michael Bolton
36. "We Didn't Start the Fire" Billy Joel
38. "Downtown Train", Rod Stewart
46. "Ice, Ice, Baby", Vanilla Ice
56. "U Can't Touch This", MC Hammer
62. "Janie's Got a Gun", Aerosmith
65. "Free Fallin' ", Tom Petty


Now this is just my opinion of the biggest "hits" of 1990- the songs that have stuck around as part of American pop culture. BUT..this is just one persons opinion. Maybe we should look at the top 5 from the year to see if they conform to the rule and than look at the songs that we all classify as the biggest hits. Please respond to this post saying what you think and what songs you are going to look at
