On this week's 1989 countdown:
1. Nina said that "Real Love" (the Jody Watley one) fell three while it actually fell 13 (#19-#32). Then she said Simply Red's "If You Don't Know My By Now" moved up five while it was actually up six (#23-#17); the Michael Damian "Rock On" was falling a half-dozen while it was actually down seven (#4-#11); and "I Won't Back Down" moved up "a couple" (which would usually imply two) while it was actually up three (#21-#18).
2. The display for "Every Little Step" still shows (88).
3. Mark said that the first chart run of "Into the Night" was in 1988 while it was actually in 1980.
4. The display for "Cuddly Toy (Feel for Me)" doesn't have (89).
5. Alan's absence apparently means a bunch of songs went unmentioned during Mark's talk breaks: "My Brave Face", "Rooms on Fire", "Veronica", "What You Don't Know", "Where Are You Now", and "Cry" (the Waterfront one).

Mark with an error when announcing Paula Abdul. He called "Forever Your Girl" the second single from the album of the same name. I think he forgot that "Knocked Out" and the original version of "(It's Just)The Way That You Love Me" were the first two releases after "Straight Up."

Mark said Marx Satisfied was one of three #1s from his Repeat Offender album. Richard had three straight chart toppers but Hold Onto The Nights was from his previous self titled release, not RO.

Mark said Vince Gill was a founding member of PPL. Of course the future Eagle didn't join the band until 1979 and would leave shortly after this countdown song.

Mark said Shining Star was headed to #4. Manhattans would top off at #5. Then he said What A Fool Believes came out a couple years after sound alike countdown Steal Away. Of course Doobies version was from the prior year.

In their ever changing definition of a hit, Mark said Lipps, Inc only had one and Manhattans had done nothing since Kiss and Say Goodbye. Both acts had other Hot 100 entries.

I think those comments by Mark are because, with the exception of a minor Top-40 single by the Manhattans from 1975 ("Don't Take Your Love", #37), all of those groups' other Hot 100 entries were flops.
