# Liste der Billboard-Chartsongs (1949)

Die Liste der Singles in den Billboard-Charts (1949) ist eine vollständige Liste der Songs, die sich im Kalenderjahr 1949 in den von Billboard veröffentlichten Charts der USA platzieren konnten.
Bei der Aufstellung ist zu beachten, dass sich in den Billboard-Charts A- und B-Seite eines Tonträgers auch einzeln platzieren konnten; in diesem Fall werden sie in dieser Liste entsprechend separat aufgeführt. Die Angaben zur Anzahl der Wochen sowie der Bestplatzierung entsprechen dem Zeitrahmen des jeweiligen Kalenderjahres und bilden somit nur eine Teilstatistik ab. In diesem Jahr platzierten sich insgesamt 210 Songs.
Ende der 1940er-Jahre begann der Aufstieg des Rhythm & Blues im Publikumsgeschmack; Anfang Juni 1949 führte das Billboard Magazin eine separate Hitparade (Chart) für dieses Genre ein. Diese Musik wurzelt im Süden der USA, entstanden war sie im urbanen Norden. Mit populären Figuren dieses Genres wie Count Basie, Ray Charles, den Ink Spots und anderen gelangte diese Musik näher an den Mainstream und erfuhr landesweite Aufmerksamkeit eines gemischtrassigen Publikums. Etwas weitere vom Zentrum stand die Musik des ländlichen Amerikas, genannt Country, Country & Western oder einfach Hillbilly Musik. Der Rundfunk trug viel zum Erfolg dieser Musikrichtung bei; jüngere Sänger erobern ein breites Publikum. Des Weiteren etablierte sich auch der Mainstream oder Traditionelle Pop, mit Cross Over Künstlern. Sänger wie Louis Armstrong, Patti Page und Tony Bennett sollten in den frühen 1950er-Jahren landesweite Popularität erfahren.
