The 104 most popular Hindi-Urdu songs of 2008

The charts that this page has relied upon

BT: Bollywood Trends

IC: IndiCine

LM: Lyrics Mail

MR is the ‘meta-rank’ derived from the extent of agreement between the charts cited on this page. It has been seen that some charts award unusually high or low ranks to particular songs, distorting their overall ‘meta-rank.’ Therefore:

i) it should not be assumed that Indpaedia has assigned this meta-rank of its own or that Indpaedia agrees with it; and

ii) Each chart’s original ranks have been given to enable the reader to decide which chart is the most accurate. It will not be proper for Indpaedia to say that one chart is more reliable than another.

Unfortunately, after Binaca Geet Mala wound up there were very few annual charts and Indpaedia has had to rely on whatever was available.

C1, C2 and C3:

Because of the absence of the regular annual lists, Indpaedia had to scan the Web to crowd-source lay opinions about the biggest hits of the year. C1, C2 and C3 represent the first three sets of individually-prepared lists for 2008 found on Crowd Sourced Yahoo Answers

Songs with the broadest consensus have been kept in the first table and those with the next level of broad acceptability in the second table.
