Billboard历史简介（申请加精）
      1894年11月1日，美国俄亥俄州辛辛那提市的一个小酒馆里，两个专门为马戏团、展览会设计告示牌的年轻人威廉。H.唐纳德森(William H.Donaldson)和詹姆士.F.亨宁汉(James F. Henningham)酒后兴起，萌生了办刊物的念头，《公告牌》(Billboard)就这样诞生了。不过那时，它还叫做“Billboard Advertising”，这份月刊只有8页，售价10美分，内容以州内大事、狂欢节日、娱乐演出为主。
　　1897年，杂志更名为“The Billboard”，同时做出一系列调整。唐纳德森买下了亨宁汉的股份、将月刊转变为周刊、在纽约以及芝加哥设立办公室。杂志内容则逐步娱乐化：增添唱片界的新闻与广告、电影介绍、歌曲评论、专栏专区等等。直到1913年，《公告牌》出现首份榜单“上周最畅销的前十名流行歌曲”，成为第一本拥有排行榜的杂志。
　　随后的几十年里，《公告牌》又陆续开设了各式各样的排行榜：各剧院上周所播放的流行歌曲排行榜、点唱机排行榜、流行歌曲销量排行榜、电台最热播歌曲排行榜、唱片销量排行榜等等。这些排行榜中，精度不高、由唱片公司提供名单或所针对的传播途径影响不大的榜单大多停止。
　　上个世纪40年代，《公告牌》做出调整并重点推出点唱机最常播放歌曲榜、电台DJ最常播放歌曲榜、专辑销量榜、单曲销量榜等榜单，这些排行榜已与现今《公告牌》的榜单形式十分相似，而杂志本身也成为专业性的流行音乐排行榜杂志。1954年后，《公告牌》已经掌控了整个美国流行乐界，包括各类流行项目的榜单信息与名次的排行统计专业职权。1955年7月9日到8月27日，比尔·哈利的《昼夜摇滚》(Rock Around The Clock)蝉联《公告牌》单曲销量榜八周冠军，宣告了摇滚乐时代的开始。
　　同年11月12日，《公告牌》推出首份综合歌曲销售及点唱机最常播放的排行榜Top 100，1958年8月4日，Top 100更名为Hot 100单曲榜，随后将最佳销量榜并入，单曲榜自此宣告统一，成为《公告牌》至今最有名的榜单。虽然成型用了3年时间，人们仍将它的诞生日定在1955年11月12日。
　　之后，《公告牌》一直稳步发展，称霸美国乐坛，并不时改进推新：将名称改为“Billboard”、出现封面、改进统计方式、更名专辑榜为The Billboard 200等等，包括今年，《公告牌》还推出了Pop 100 单曲榜，与Hot 100 相比，它以top 40 主流电台播放率作为统计来源。
　　如此111年，才有了这么一张厚重、醒目、权威的“公告牌”。 以下就是从Billboard成立后的一些音乐记录：

个人感觉：Billboard是欧美流行音乐的风向标，歌手都已登上Billboard而为荣，在Billboard停留时间越长的歌曲也纷纷获得年终大奖，更是让作品一直广为流传，像人们熟悉的Gun'Rose的Dong't Cry，以及空中监狱主题曲How do I live，更是像Michael Jackson的专辑《Thriller》更是创下了全球专辑销量最多记录，这张专辑也影响了整个流行乐坛直至今天。当然对于像我们这些非欧美国家的歌迷，选择歌曲的一个重要依据也就是Billboard.通过Billboard，也让很多歌手为世界各个地区的人们熟知。总之，Billboard影响着爱好音乐的你，我，他。
