Frequently asked questions
What is the best record of 1995 in the Dutch Top 40?
Het Is Een Nacht... (Levensecht) by Guus Meeuwis and Vagant tops the 1995 year chart, with 786 points from 22 weeks in the chart (peak position 1). The top 5: 1. Het Is Een Nacht... (Levensecht) (Guus Meeuwis and Vagant), 2. Conquest of Paradise (Vangelis), 3. Think Twice (Céline Dion), 4. Passie (Clouseau), 5. Sjeng Aon de Geng (Nachraove).
How is the 1995 year chart calculated?
Every weekly entry in 1995 earns points: 41 minus the position, so 40 points for a number 1 and 1 point for number 40. The sum of those points sets the order; on a tie the peak position counts, then the number of weeks, then the earliest week. Only the weeks of 1995 count, also for a record that entered the year before or stayed on into the next year.
Is the number 1 of the year chart also the record that spent longest at number 1?
Not necessarily. The year chart counts every week in the chart, including the weeks lower in the Top 40; a record that stayed high for a long time can therefore end above a shorter-lived number 1. The number ones of 1995, the longest-charting records and the highest new entries are on the 1995 year page.
How many weeks does the 1995 year chart cover?
51 weekly charts, with 327 different records between them, twelve of which reached number 1. Every week can be viewed separately from the year page.
