Song Ratings — Inferences

Here are some brief inferences from this year’s song ratings.

1. Justin Prabhakaran has clearly dominated the playlists of this year. 

2. There is an increase in usage of old songs, tunes of old songs, traditional tunes, and copyright-free folk tunes. 

3. A sort of resurrection has happened this year after the major slump in 2018 when the quality of songs plummeted.

4. Many a good songs ended up with same ratings — indicating a healthy trend — but all these songs have come from movies aplenty, which means there is a serious dearth of good song albums.

5. The descent of Ghibran! The most worrying thing. Among his 5 albums this year only 2 songs have found their way into the Top 100. Not a single song is featured in Top 50.
