The TOP
2006
by Powhertz


    Like each and every year, each radio station has made its own chart of the year and made some huge stupidities in the process! I'm mainly thinking of CKMF that ranked Shakira's Hips don't Lie at #12 while it's always been very obvious that it was one of the three biggest hits of the year, but we could also talk of CKOI which placed 3 songs from Bob Sinclair into its top 26, Musique Plus that placed absolutely minor hits at #6 and #7, or The Buzz that propelled a minor hit to its #2 and a success of LAST YEAR at #9! Once again, Powhertz fixes the situation with a chart that is really representative of the songs that were the most popular in Québec during the ending year.

Note: Mexico from Kaïn was #1 according to Le Palmarès in date of December 18th, but no station has considered it for its top of the year. Powhertz has deceided to take the bet that the stations will keep it for the top of 2007...
