Blige's hit of that title, which was in that particular countdown.

On 10/22/77, Casey said of Johnny Rivers, "Chances are when this song ["Swayin' To the Music", at #10 that week] falls off, he'll be back soon with a followup." Johnny never made the top 40 again, though his followup ("Curious Mind (Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um)") just barely missed, peaking at #41.

On this week's 1975 show, Casey said Bruce Springsteen was on his way towards the top 10 with "Born To Run", at #23. It would peak right there - it would take him five more years to reach the top 10.

On this week's 1985 show Casey said ONJ was in 5th place among acts with the most consecutive years with a top 40... not only would the streak be broken in 1986, she would never reach the top 40 again!

Also on the '85 show, Casey said that A-Ha could get their 3rd consecutive #1 with 'Head over heels'. It'd only peak at #3.

A few songs later Casey said... here is George Harrison's 7th consecutive top 40. His next release This Guitar would end the streak, not even cracking the Hot 100.

On this week's 1977 show, Casey said #2 Carly was "still reaching for #1." Well Simon's gripped slipped as Nobody Does It Better began to fall the next week.

On 11/8/86, Casey noted that Tina Turner's "Typical Male" was moving down after just missing #1 (it was #2 for three weeks) and said, "There's always that next hit." Tina did have more hits, but none got as close to the top. (And her next single, "Two People", only got to #30).

On 11/30/74, Casey said that Paul McCartney & Wings were "probably heading for another #1 song" with "Junior's Farm". That song only reached #3, though Paul & Co. did hit #1 their next time out, in summer 1975.

That song only reached #3, though Paul & Co. did hit #1 their next time out, in summer 1975. A possible indicator it wasn't gonna top the chart was that it get leapfrogged by the rebounding "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet/ Freewheeling" by BTO.

On 11/18/72 Casey introduced Bread's "Sweet Surrender" saying "it looks like nothing's going to stop them." They would break up in 1973.
