The France SNEP song chart

Song chart France SNEP

The market for music in France is the fourth largest in the world, however there is a lack of notable and validated charts. This particular set of data for the period 1967 to 1984 was, it is claimed, collected for the "Syndicat National de l' Edition Phonographique" (SNEP) to calculate royalty payments. The data was obtained from //top.france.free.fr/.

Attributes

The web site publishes monthly listings of the top 15. We have collated these to provide:

artist: The artist
name: The name of the track
position: The peak position that the song reached
date: The month when it first entered the chart
months: The number of months the song was in the charts

artist

There are a wide range of ways to assign scores to artists in order to work out which artists are most significant in this chart. We've split the period into 5 year chunks, used a combination of position and duration to assign a score to each song, then summed the scores for each artist over the period.

Half Decade	Number 1 Artist	Number 2 Artist	Number 3 Artist	Number 4 Artist	Number 5 Artist
1965 - 1969	Sheila	Johnny Hallyday	Mirielle Mathieu	The Beatles	Salvatore Adamo
1970 - 1974	Johnny Hallyday	Michel Sardou	Mike Brant	Claude Francois	Stone & Charden
1975 - 1979	Michel Sardou	Johnny Hallyday	Boney M	Claude Francois	Joe Dassin
1980 - 1984	Michel Sardou	Michael Jackson	Jean-Jacques Goldman	Dorothee	Lio

Another approach is to assign each song a score based on one divided by the year position (so number 1 is 1.0, 2 is a half and so on). If we then total each artist's songs we get a rough idea of how significant they are. Here are the top 20 artists in the SNEP charts.

#	Artist	Entries	Biggest Hit	Year	Year Position
1	Johnny Hallyday	39	Jesus Christ	1970	1
2	Joe Dassin	23	L'ete indien	1975	1

name

There are very few titles that were hits for more than one artist. The title "Generique TV" was a hit for 5 different artists: Ulysse 31 (1981); Albator (1980); Capitaine Flam (1981); Heidi (1981); Spectreman (1982).

position

The peak position that songs reached in the charts.

date

The month in which a song first entered the SNEP chart.

months

When we plot the average length of a song's run for songs over the period covered it is clear that the chart changed little over the 17 years it was active.

Dutronc in the top 1000 artists+

You say "Dutronc did not have enough international success to reach that list, but you had just two references. With the indicated references, I think that he can to entry in this list entries, because we include Francoise Hardy, Eddy Mitchell, for example, and I think that these two singers have less references than Dutronc

We can only take into account the charts we include. We will only include complete charts, not individual artist's entries.

Jacques Dutronc

Why you don't show the Dutronc positions in the charts ? It's possible to obtain it ? Thank you very much

We only list entries for the top 1000 artists, Jacques Dutronc did not have enough international success to reach that list.

The majority of Jacques Dutronc's success came from the French charts, you could use the address listed on this page to download the SNEP chart and get 90% of his entries.

Outside the SNEP charts he had a single hit in the Flanders chart ("Mini mini mini" in 1966), the Holland chart ("Le Responsable" in 1969) and the last.fm chart ("L'Augmentation" in 1968).
