This page looks at the current popularity of individual 1980s Hi-NRG, Italo Disco and Euro Disco tracks I have posted on my YouTube channel. Taking each track by the number of likes each track gets on the channel, and then the total number of views of each track, I am creating curent Hi-NRG top 40 charts for the 1980s.

I have put these charts below, accompanied by a YouTube Playlist of all the tracks in each chart. As I am currently posting tracks and charts from 1980-1982, the early 1980s chart leads this page, and I’ll be updating the other years’ charts from time to time as tracks get liked and viewed on the channel.

My eventual aim, once I have published all the 1980s Hi-NRG and Italo Disco charts I can find and posted the relevant tracks on the YouTube channel, is to come up with a Hi-NRG top 200 from the most liked and most viewed tracks in the channel.

These charts are as good a place as any to look more in depth into 80s Hi-NRG. They are quite interesting because many of the all time classic Hi-NRG tracks, that often appear in Hi-NRG compilations and mixes, didn’t seem to be that popular on the channel. Instead, some of the more obscure Hi-NRG, Italo and Euro tracks from the 80s that I posted on the channel proved to be much more popular.

Anyone to take part in these charts – all you have to do is to go to my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/Jamiej80sdisco and view and press the like button on your favourite tracks.
