After Eddie Rabbit's song "Step by Step" moved up from #10 to 9 to 8 to 7 to 6 to 5 where it peaked, I enjoyed hearing Casey mention it was moving up step by step.

Elisa Fiorillo's "On The Way Up" was on the way up the AT40 chart in late 1990. I can imagine Casey Kasem mocking the fact that "On The Way Up" was "on the way down" after it had peaked on CT40.

HEADED FOR A FALL by Firefall, as even Casey mentioned this when the song stayed at #35 position

May 22, 1982: After three weeks peaked at #17, Greg Guidry's "Goin' Down" does exactly that, plummeting to #36.

Chartwise, the (post-Diana Ross) Supremes failed to climb all the way "Up the Ladder to the Roof"; the song peaked at #10 in April 1970.

There Are No Coincidences (TANC): Casey answers a question on this week's 1987 show about songs that mention their own chart peaks.

Bruce Springsteen's "I'm Goin' Down" did just that pretty quickly in November 1985, falling 9-19-32-off. If Ryan Cabrera's "On the Way Down" made AT20/10 in 2004-05, then I can imagine Casey saying something similar (it peaked at #4 on AT40, which was of course Seacrest's by then.)

This is close(mixing and matching titles and lyrics): The Tide is “High” by Blondie, in fact the hightest, when it got to #1 (especiaily indicating in the lyrics “I’m gonna be your number one”.) As a bonus the very next #1 in the UK chart had the Super number in “Super Trooper”, as ABBA were singing “feeling like a number one”.

Super Trouper should have been a much bigger hit over here in the US, in my opinion.

Super Trouper should have been a much bigger hit over here in the US, in my opinion. It almost made the 40. Of all their non-Top 40 hits, it became the closest to this portion of the Hot 100, peaking at #45.

Taylor Swift has a new song out called "22". Guess where it is on this weekend's AT40?

In part because I heard this show the other day, Skid Row was at #18 with "18 and Life" on the 8/26/89 CT40. Peaked higher than that IIRC.

.38 Special's Second Chance only reach as far as #6 in 1989 but their follow up Comin' Down Tonight climbed to #67 after 7 weeks and yes you guessed it "came down that night"
