List of Billboard number-one dance singles of 1987

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Billboard magazine compiled the top-performing dance singles in the United States on the Hot Dance/Disco Club Play chart and the Hot Dance/Disco 12-inch Singles Sales chart. Premiered in 1976, the Club Play chart ranked the most-played singles on dance club based on reports from a national sample of club DJs. The 12-inch Singles Sales chart was launched in 1985 to compile the best-selling dance singles based on retail sales across the United States. The word "disco" was removed from the title of the section of both charts beginning on September 19, 1987. Billboard retitled the section Hot Dance Music on October 24, 1987.[1][2]
