The 1981 HITS ARCHIVE - Alphabetically by Song Title (MusicProf)
202 videos • 10,886 views • by AnotherProf Arranged in song-title order, this is one of our three* differently structured HITS playlists of 1981 U.S. ‘pop’ music singles as compiled from national record sales & radio exposure, and assembled for this collection with the invaluable chart reference help of Joel Whitburn’s ‘Record Research’ publications. These are primarily the ‘hit version’ commercial single releases which achieved their greatest popularity during the calendar year 1981 (some of the titles began their national chart run prior to the end of 1980). The record label scans are displayed for reference, and the majority of tracks that you hear were transferred directly from the 45 singles, though a few of the titles have come from digital sources. Videos in this playlist were created and posted to YouTube by yours truly, with the exception of those which do not include “1981 HITS ARCHIVE” in the video’s name. Because my own attempted uploads of those particular titles are currently blocked from view in the U.S. due to copyright claims, I have substituted other existing unblocked YouTube posts of those tracks (not all of which may be the actual hit 45 single versions). *See also these playlists: The 1981 HITS ARCHIVE - Alphabetically by Artist Name” (same tracks as the Song Title playlist, but arranged in a different order) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...
