With the new chart methodology implemented on November 30, 1991, it had a drastic effect on the amount of top tens throughout the year. A total of 77 songs reached the top ten, a huge decline from 111 songs from the previous year, with 68 songs that peaked that year while the remaining nine peaked in 1991 or 1993. 13 songs hit number one that year, while 10 songs peaked at number two.

One effect the new chart methodology had were songs that spend a lot more weeks in the top ten than usual from the previous years. Fifteen songs spent twelve weeks or more in the top 10, the first to do so since early 1984. "End of the Road" spent a then-record 19 weeks in the top 10 in a single chart run, alongside a record 13-week stay at number one.
