Neither show is particularly strong in terms of music offerings...

Not particarly strong yes, but better than the 5-7-88 show (ie) Lita Ford "Kiss Me Deadly", Midnight Oil "Beds Are Burning", Def Leppard "Pour Some Sugar On Me " and that forgotten hit by Robert Plant "Tall Cool One" all inside the top 40 on 6-11-88!

For 1988, clues will be needed - and how! (As with the 70s, I already know what these will be.) All four extras come from the timeframe of late 1988/early 1989. Let's say...from November, up to when the theme package changes (2/4/1989 was the last show before the change). Two of the four are Top 5 hits that peaked within this period. A third, is a Top 15 hit from the period. The fourth...could be the most difficult. It's from an act with many Top 40 hits to their name, but the song in question is actually not one of them. (And, like the others, it peaked in the same time period.) Good luck! (You'll need it.) OK, here i go: “Desire” – U2 “Waiting For A Star To Fall- Boy Meets Girl “Sweet Child O’Mine” – Guns ‘N Roses “Put A Little Love In Your Heart” – Al Green & Annie Lennox Al Green & Annie Lennox are that "act with many Top 40 hits to their name, but the song in question is actually not one of them". “Put A Little Love In Your Heart” is that song, originally by Jackie DeShannon.

It would have been great to replay 6/6/1987, but oh well, 6/11/1988 is a nice exchange, and is new to Premiere. If memory serves correctly, is there only one more 1988 show remaining after next weekend (4/2/1988)?
At least the 6/11/1988 show is better than the 5/7/1988 show - given that I heard that May 1988 show in first run the same day I ended up in hospital.

Er...you're misinterpreting the clue, here. I'm referring to a song that never reached The 40. Thus, "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" - with its #6 standing - would immediately be wrong.

I'll predict: Taylor Dayne - Don't Rush Me Def Leppard - Armageddon It Van Halen - Finish What Ya Started Fleetwood Mac - As Long As You Follow I'm thinking "as long as you follow" is a great guess for the curveball pick, based on Mike's clue...

The well-known artist with lots of top 40 hits, but this one fell short, could be several choices aside from just Fleetwood Mac (which had one of the higher non-top 40 charters with "As Long As You Follow," peaking at No. 43). A few other possibilities -- with the first of these coming from the Dec. 24, 1988 chart:
* "Wild Again" -- Starship. (No. 73 peak.) * "Killing Me Softly" -- Al B. Sure. (No. 80 peak.) * "Nobody's Perfect" -- Mike + the Mechanics. (Since their next song, "The Living Years," went to No. 1. This one stopped at No. 63.) * "Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble" -- DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince. (No. 57 peak.) * "Hippy Hippy Shake" -- The Georgia Satellites. (No. 45 peak.) * "Handle With Care" -- The Traveling Wilburys. Lots of well-knowns here, including Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty. (No. 45 peak.) * "Baby Can I Hold You" -- Tracy Chapman. (No. 48 peak.)
From the Feb. 4, 1989 chart -- the last week to consider: * "Baby Can I Hold You" -- Huey Lewis and the News. (No. 47 peak.) * "Tell Her" -- Kenny Loggins. (No. 76 peak, debuted on Feb. 4.) * "Got It Made" -- Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. (No. 69 peak, also a Feb. 4 debut.)
So, really a toss-up for me. However, I'm going to guess it will be a song that is not by Fleetwood Mac.
Other picks:
Top 15 hit: "Holding On" -- Steve Winwood.
Top 5 hits -- ergo, for me at least, both No. 1s:
* "My Perogative" -- Bobby Brown. * "Two Hearts" -- Phil Collins.

Al B. Sure and the Georgia Satellites each only had one pop top 40 hit. Most of the others had more, but not "lots" at least as I saw it. Huey Lewis & the News had lots of hits, but I assume you meant "Give Me the Keys (And I'll Drive You Crazy)"?

I guess that leaves When You Put Your Heart In It-Kenny Rogers out of the mix. I know that's from 1988, but just dont know when and where it peaked in the Hot 100.
