THE TOP 100 “RELIGIOUS” SINGLES OF ALL TIME

In the spirit of Christmas 2022, we’re counting down the biggest singles with a religious theme that charted in Australia since 1950. The final list has been formulated using the following three rules:

  • Songs with a title featuring words more associated with religion, than not, were an automatic qualify. Examples of these are Heaven, Angel, God and, of course, Christmas. This also includes the names of religious figures.
  • Songs featuring a word that can be associated with religion, but also used in non-religious contexts, were included, only if the rest of the lyrics of the song mention other religious associations. For example, George Michael’s “Faith” and Madonna’s “Papa Don’t Preach” did not qualify as their use of “faith” and “preach” were in non-religious ways, with no further mention of religion in the songs.
  • I have also included songs that don’t mention religious words in the song title, but do have a strong religious association by using relevant words throughout the lyrics. Songs such as Lenny Kravitz’s “Are You Gonna Go My Way” and Helen Reddy’s “I Don’t Know How To Love Him”, while have strong religious associations, are not included in the list due to no actual religious buzz words being used in the lyrics.
