^Not sure you realize it and it really doesn't matter...if someone wants to do a chart critique from August, no one should care....but this week's show if from 3/13/76. Or so I thought. Anyway, I have thought that about "Take it to the Limit" since 1976. In fact, for many years I was always disappointed it was not Teddy and co. because I prefer that song to this one, but not my much.

It would probably be interesting to do a chart critique from the opposite time of the year--for instance, three eighths of a century ago this week would have been Sept. 4 or 11, 1976--and I started high school the Wednesday in between.

American Top 40 - March 8, 2014
This week's presentation - March 5, 1983
Wow, the very first show from the series! Even though this is a repeat, my commentary is brand new, as I didn't hear AT40: The 80s until August, 2007.
Droppers: THE CLAPPING SONG - PIA ZADORA (36) - Thank God we didn't have to hear this annoying piece of trash! Definitely a "No. Just no". MANEATER - DARYL HALL & JOHN OATES (30) - Great song! Their biggest hit of all time! SEXUAL HEALING - MARVIN GAYE (29) - This was OK, but I wasn't generally a big fan of his. THE OTHER GUY - LITTLE RIVER BAND (28) - Good song, but I preferred several others by them - such as their follow-up, "We Two".
LW#1: BABY, COME TO ME – PATTI AUSTIN w/JAMES INGRAM 40: DON’T TELL ME YOU LOVE ME – NIGHT RANGER (40) - Great song, though I preferred their more mellow songs. 39: MAKE LOVE STAY – DAN FOGELBERG (debut) - Great song! Somewhat underrated, although it was a huge hit at AC radio. Fogelberg was losing his legs at CHR radio - he only had one more Top 40 hit after this. 38: TIED UP – OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN (38) - This was OK, but I preferred many others from her. 37: LITTLE TOO LATE – PAT BENATAR (debut) - Great song! I did prefer a few others from her, though (including her last hit before this one). 36: POISON ARROW - ABC (39) - Good song. It's pretty much a toss-up between this one and "The Look Of Love". 35: I’M ALIVE – NEIL DIAMOND (35) - This one was pretty good, but nothing special. 34: JEOPARDY – GREG KIHN BAND (debut) - Great song! My favorite of his two Top 20 hits. 33: THE WOMAN IN ME – DONNA SUMMER (33) - Wow, a ballad by Donna Summer? Not many of those, are there? Anyway, this was a good song, though not my favorite from her. 32: MY KIND OF LADY - SUPERTRAMP (37) - Great song! Too bad this one only got one spot higher - it was way underrated, IMO. 31: DER KOMMISSAR – AFTER THE FIRE (debut) - Good song - I think I've heard a drop piece of Falco's version, and I believe I preferred the ATF version. OPTIONAL EXTRA: IT MIGHT BE YOU - STEPHEN BISHOP - Great song! I only saw the movie once, and I don't remember much about it - just LOL-ing at a scene that, as it turned out, I was the only one in the entire theater who thought it was funny. 30: DREAMIN’ IS EASY – STEEL BREEZE (34) - Great song! I slightly prefer this over "You Don't Want Me Anymore". 29: YOU CAN’T HURRY LOVE – PHIL COLLINS (22) - Good song - my favorite version of the song (other ones I've heard include the original by the Supremes, and the 1982 cover by the Stray Cats). 28: I’VE GOT A ROCK ‘N’ ROLL HEART – ERIC CLAPTON (32) - Great song! One of my favorites from him (though it doesn't hold a candle to his cover of George Harrison's "Love Comes To Everyone"). 27: AFRICA – TOTO (19) - Great song, although my thoughts on this song were completely different during this song's chart run. 26: ON THE LOOSE - SAGA (26) - Great song! I remember hearing this on WLS and B96 a lot back in the day. 25: COME ON EILEEN – DEXY’S MIDNIGHT RUNNERS (31) - I liked this song when it was first released, but then, when I heard it about ten times a day (or so it seemed), it got a little old. 24: HEART TO HEART – KENNY LOGGINS (15) - Great song! Interesting story about how the critics predicted that Kenny Loggins would do poorly as a solo artist - how wrong they were! And the best was yet to come! 23: GOODY TWO SHOWS – ADAM ANT (12) - Good song - one of several rockabilly songs that charted in the 1982-83 period. 22: I KNOW THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON - FRIDA (25) - Good song, but I preferred her with Abba. 21: FALL IN LOVE WITH ME – EARTH, WIND & FIRE (27) - This wasn't bad. I certainly don't remember hearing this song back in 1983, however - it didn't even chart on the R&R pop chart. LDD: THROUGH THE YEARS – KENNY ROGERS - Great song - one of the most popular LDD songs of all time! Is it me, or did they play a slightly longer version of the song than usual? OPTIONAL EXTRA: BEAT IT - MICHAEL JACKSON - Great song! One of several rock songs he's charted with! 20: MR. ROBOTO - STYX (24) - This song was OK, but I preferred many others by then. 19: BREAKING US IN TWO - JOE JACKSON (23) - Great song! One of his best! 18: ONE ON ONE – DARYL HALL & JOHN OATES (21) - Great song! My favorite of their 1983 hits! 17: ALLENTOWN – BILLY JOEL (17) - This song may have only peaked at #17, but it sure had staying power, spending six weeks at its peak position, and sixteen weeks in the Top 40. If I recall correctly, it was the highest ranked song on the Top 100 of 1983 that did not hit the Top Ten. 16: TWILIGHT ZONE – GOLDEN EARRING (18) - Great song! One I remember hearing a lot on the three Top 40 stations I listened too back then. Oddly enough, it never came anywhere near the R&R chart - must have had sporadic airplay. 15: SEPARATE WAYS - JOURNEY (20) - Great song! This one still receives a decent amount of recurrent airplay 31 years later! 14: DOWN UNDER – MEN AT WORK (8) - It's okies, but this, as well as "Who Can It Be Now" are grossly overplayed, even today. The Cargo singles were far better, IMO. 13: YOUR LOVE IS DRIVING ME CRAZY – SAMMY HAGAR (13) - Great song! Definitely my favorite from him! 12: ALL RIGHT – CHRISTOPHER CROSS (16) - Great song! Despite a pretty good-sized jump, this was all the further this song got. It did hit the Top Five on the R&R chart, though. 11: YOU ARE – LIONEL RICHIE (14) - Great song! This song didn't quite make it to the top of the AT40 chart, but it did manage to log a week at the top of the R&R chart. 10: PASS THE DUTCHIE – MUSICAL YOUTH (10) - When I heard the beginning of this song after song #12, I thought that they'd gotten the songs mixed up, but it turned out to be a drop piece, as Casey said he would translate a few of the hard to understand lyrics of the song, coming up. Anyway, this song was OK, but nothing I'd want to hear on a regular basis. OPTIONAL EXTRA: CHANGE OF HEART - TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS - Great song! This one had a very erratic chart run, IIRC. 9: BACK ON THE CHAIN GANG – THE PRETENDERS (11) - Great song! Possibly my favorite song from them! 8: WE’VE GOT TONIGHT – KENNY ROGERS AND SHEENA EASTON (9) - It's okies, but I prefer many others by both artists. 7: YOU AND I – EDDIE RABBITT/CRYSTAL GAYLE (7) - Great song! One of my favorites from both artists! LDD: THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD – THE BEATLES - Good song, and definitely fitting for the dedication. 6: BABY, COME TO ME – PATTI AUSTIN w/JAMES INGRAM (1) - Great song! Glad this one got a second chance, thanks to its inclusion in General Hospital. 5: HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF – DURAN DURAN (6) - Great song! Definitely one of their best! 4: DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HURT ME – CULTURE CLUB (5) - Good song, though I preferred a few others. 3: STRAY CAT STRUT – THE STRAY CATS (3) - Good song OPTIONAL EXTRA: LOVE MY WAY - PSYCHEDELIC FURS - Great song! Their 1987 hit "Heartbreak Beat" sounds very similar. 2: SHAME ON THE MOON – BOB SEGER & THE SILVER BULLET BAND (2) - Great song! Sounds a little like a laid back version of "Fire Lake". 1: BILLIE JEAN – MICHAEL JACKSON (4) - Great song! His most successful single from "Thriller"!
Predictions for next week: Well, based on the clues I've seen, I'm thinking that there are only two possibilities for next week's show and, of those, only one probability, which would be March 15, 1986. My back-up prediction, frankly, seems somewhat useless, unless they do the same thing as they did in 2010, and run two shows from the same year just two weeks apart (and it would be the very same year that they did that with). Yes, my back-up prediction is March 17, 1984.

American Top 40: The 70s - March 8, 2014
This week's presentation - March 13, 1976
Dropped: SQUEEZE BOX - THE WHO (32) - Great song! Shame that it dropped off! Oh well, at least we did hear it on the last 1976 show. I WRITE THE SONGS - BARRY MANILOW (27) - Wow, when I heard the beginning of song the Melissa Manchester song at #27, I thought it was this song - and what a coincidence - this song was at the same position the previous week. Anyway, this was OK, but one of my least favorites from him. BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO - NEIL SEDAKA (18) - Good song, but I preferred several others from him, such as his two big hits from the year before. BABY FACE - WING AND A PRAYER FIFE AND DRUM BUGLE CORPS (14) - Wow, what a huge drop, especially after moving up a spot the week before (Elton John's "Grow Some Funk Of Your Own", which dropped off the previous week, did the very same thing - moved up a spot to #14 and went kaput. WAKE UP EVERYBODY - HAROLD MELVIN & THE BLUE NOTES (12) - Wow! Three songs falling from the chart from inside the Top 20? If I didn't know any better, I'd swear this was a 1982 show! Anyway, this was no huge loss, as I wasn't a big fan of this one.
40: BOOGIE FEVER – THE SYLVERS (debut) - Good song - my favorite of their two big hits. 39: LOVE FIRE - JIGSAW (debut) - Good song, but not quite as good as "Sky High". 38: THERE’S A KIND OF HUSH (ALL OVER THE WORLD) – THE CARPENTERS (debut) - Good song - I liked the original slightly better. 37: SHOW ME THE WAY – PETER FRAMPTON (debut) - Great song! My favorite song from the Frampton Comes Alive album. 36: ONLY LOVE IS REAL – CAROLE KING (39) - Good song. This one reminded me a little of her big 1971 hit "It's Too Late". 35: HOLD BACK THE NIGHT – THE TRAMMPS (35) - This wasn't bad. I definitely liked it better than "Disco Inferno"! 34: INSEPARABLE – NATALIE COLE (36) - Good song - reminded me a little of her Dad's hit "Unforgettable" which, of course, Natalie herself did a version of, dubbing in her Dad's vocals. 33: TAKE IT LIKE A MAN – BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE (34) - Good song, but not quite as good as "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet". 32: GOOD HEARTED WOMAN – WAYLON & WILLIE (37) - Good song! The second of two live songs in Hour 1 of the show, 31: LOVE IS THE DRUG – ROXY MUSIC (33) - This wasn't bad. I liked this and "More Than This", the only two songs by them that I know, about the same. 30: ACTION - SWEET (40) - This was pretty good. When I first tuned into the 3/6/76 show that they ran a few years back, they were already into the show and, when I heard this, I thought I had the wrong station - parts of this song actually sounds similar to current Alternative Rock music. 29: LOVE TO LOVE YOU BABY – DONNA SUMMER (14) - aka "Donna Summer's musical orgasm". 28: LET YOUR LOVE FLOW – THE BELLAMY BROTHERS (38) - Great song! This one was on its way to the top! 27: JUST YOU AND I – MELISSA MANCHESTER (30) - Great song! Too bad this one didn't do any better than it did; this was where it peaked. OPTIONAL EXTRA: SHANNON - HENRY GROSS - Dedicated to poor Snuggles, wherever she may be. No, seriously, I liked this song. 26: TANGERINE – SALSOUL ORCHESTRA (29) - This wasn't bad. Had sort of a Philly sound to it (no coincidence, as the members of the group were members of MFSB). 25: RIGHT BACK WHERE WE STARTED FROM – MAXINE NIGHTINGALE (debut) - Good song, although it doesn't hold a candle to her other Top Ten hit, "Lead Me On". 24: CUPID – TONY ORLANDO & DAWN (28) - This was OK, but I preferred the original, as well as the Spinners' remake from a few years later. 23: SWEET LOVE – THE COMMODORES (31) - Meh, I wasn't a huge fan of this one. I preferred their later material - while Lionel was still with the group, that is. 22: BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY - QUEEN (25) - Great song! One of their best songs ever! 21: ONLY SIXTEEN – DR. HOOK (24) - Decent song, but definitely not his best. 20: SLOW RIDE - FOGHAT (22) - Good song. I didn't know they were English. 19: THE WHITE KNIGHT – CLEDUS MAGGARD (20) - Ripoff of "Convoy" by CW McCall - and not a good job of it. 18: DEEP PURPLE – DONNY & MARIE OSMOND (21) - Great song! One of their best! 17: YOU SEXY THING – HOT CHOCOLATE (10) - Meh, not a fan of this one. 16: DREAM ON - AEROSMITH (19) - Great song! One of their best! As usual, they butchered this song, big time. 15: GOLDEN YEARS – DAVID BOWIE (17) - Not a fan of this one at all. EXTRA: ODE TO BILLIE JOE – BOBBY GENTRY - This song was cut from the countdown. 14: FANNY (BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE) – THE BEE GEES (16) - Good song. This and their song "Love So Right", from later on that year, sound very similar. 13: MONEY HONEY – THE BAY CITY ROLLERS (23) - This song wasn't bad, but nothing exceptional either. 12: DISCO LADY – JOHNNY TAYLOR (26) - Wow, what a large chart jump! It was clear that this song was on its way to the top, where it would spend four weeks. As for my opinion on the song, it's OK, but not one of my favorites. 11: 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER – PAUL SIMON (8) - Great song! Too bad the follow-up, "Still Crazy After All These Years" didn't do anywhere near as well. 10: JUNK FOOD JUNKIE – LARRY GROCE (13) - Funny song, and interesting story about him marrying one of his teachers. 9: SWEET THING – RUFUS FEATURING CHAKA KHAN (12) - This was so/so - nothing I'd go out of my way to listen to. 8: LOVE HURTS - NAZARETH (9) - Not a hot Judy Collins premake - this was even better. One of the best power ballads of the 70s. 7: THEME FROM ‘S.W.A.T.” – RHYTHM HERITAGE (4) - Good song. I never watched this show, but I think my brother might have, since he had a S.W.A.T. lunch box (the blue plastic kind). 6: LONELY NIGHT (ANGEL FACE) – THE CAPTAIN & TENNILLE (7) - Well, this song sort of depicts them now that they're getting divorced. Anyway, I like this one, but not as much as "Do That To Me One More Time". EXTRA: DADDY DON’T YOU WALK SO FAST – WAYNE NEWTON - This song was pretty good, but nothing special. 5: DREAM WEAVER – GARY WRIGHT (6) - Good song, but my least favorite of his three Top 40 hits. 4: TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT – THE EAGLES (5) - Great song! I don't remember this from its chart run, though; I mainly associate this with my second grade year (1979-80), when my Mom listened to their Greatest Hits album a lot. 3: LOVE MACHINE (PART 1) – THE MIRACLES (1) - This one was OK, but I prefer some of their songs when Smokey Robinson was still with the group. 2: ALL BY MYSELF – ERIC CARMEN (2) - Great song, but very bad edit. It dropped in key after Casey stopped talking. 1: DECEMBER 1963 (OH WHAT A NIGHT) – THE FOUR SEASONS (3) - Great song! Good to know that, for a band most famous for their 60s hits, that they still had it in the 1970s!
Predictions for next week: Coming up soon - I'm thinking either 1973 or 1974, but not sure which week.

Hervard, No Matter What was Badfinger, not BTO.
BTO's other hits were Let It Ride, Hey You, Taking Care Of Business, Roll On Down The Highway...
By the way, Randy Bachman's biography has a neat story about Take It Like A Man... How he came to have Little Richard play piano on it.
Actually, the whole biography was a very interesting read!

Greetings
My list for the Episode of March 13, 1976.
40. BOOGIE FEVER- The Sylvers- This song debuted into the American Top 40 this week. 39. LOVE FIRE- Jigsaw- Here is another song that debuted in this week. In ways, it sounds like their other song, "Sky High". 38. THERE'S A KIND OF HUSH (ALL OVER THE WORLD)- The Carpenters- Karen Carpenter did well singing this song. Her voice slightly made me think of the Swedish singer Siw Inger. It debuted this week. 37. SHOW ME THE WAY- Peter Frampton- A nice song, which makes me think of the Springtime. The Talk Box in this song sounds like a Wah-Wah Pedal. 36. ONLY LOVE IS REAL- Carole King- I never knew that she was so successful as a Songwriter. This song sounded to me like "Smooth Operator" from Sade. 35. HOLD BACK THE NIGHT- The Trammps- I do not remember how this song sounds. 34. INSEPERABLE- Natalie Cole- Great! This is the Title Song from her Album. 33. TAKE IT LIKE A MAN- Bachman-Turner Overdrive- Another song that I do not remember. 32. GOOD HEARTED WOMAN- Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson- A good country song! I really think that she likes him more than he likes her. 31. LOVE IS THE DRUG- Roxy Music- I also like their song "More Than This" from 1982. 30. ACTION- Sweet- The Vocals and Style of music of this Song reminded me of Queen. 29. LOVE TO LOVE YOU BABY- Donna Summer- This song that sounded so dramatic was one of her first Hit Songs in the United States. 28. LET YOUR LOVE FLOW- The Bellamy Brothers- Great! A Favorite Song that I was so happy to hear! 27. JUST YOU AND I- Melissa Manchester- Another great song! 26. TANGERINE- Salsoul Orchestra- Good Music for dancing. 25. RIGHT BACK WHERE WE STARTED FROM- Maxine Nightingale- The highest-debuting song for this week. This was a pleasant, optimistic Love Song. 24. CUPID- Tony Orlando and Dawn- Good. 23. SWEET LOVE- The Commodores- This is one of their songs that I do not know. 22. BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY- Queen- A lot of the songs that I know from them seem to involve emotional struggles, or sound dramatic. "Another One Bites The Dust", "I Want To Break Free", and others. Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon did excellent with this Rock Opera. 21. ONLY SIXTEEN- Dr. Hook- A song about two Teenagers who were too young to begin a serious relationship. The female was "too young" and the male (who is speaking in a future time) acknowledges that he could not understand this. 20. SLOW RIDE- Foghat- I have heard this song in the Videogame "Grand Theft Auto". 19. THE WHITE KNIGHT- Cledus Maggard- I do not remember how it sounds, but I had trouble figuring out what it was about (the song). 18. DEEP PURPLE- Donny Osmond and Marie Osmond- The sound of this song made me think of music from the 1950s or 1960s. 17. YOU SEXY THING- Hot Chocolate- Sometimes, in the Middle School, this song played over the Intercom. 16. DREAM ON- Aerosmith- Classic! At first, I thought that this was from Led Zeppelin! 15. GOLDEN YEARS- David Bowie- I did not take any notes for this song. 14. FANNY (BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE)- The Bee Gees- Pleasant. 13. MONEY HONEY- Bay City Rollers- This song peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100. 12. DISCO LADY- Johnnie Taylor- When this song began, Casey Kasem mentioned another person with a similar name. However, the spelling of the names are different. 11. 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER- Paul Simon- Good. 10. JUNK FOOD JUNKIE- Larry Groce- The notes that I took about this Song are just like the ones from Hervard! The song was funny, and the story Casey told was interesting. 9. SWEET THING- Rufus Ft. Chaka Khan- Nice and peaceful. 8. LOVE HURTS- Nazareth- I used to think that this song was from the late 1980s. I have heard lots of Power Ballads that were recorded during those years. One video that I have viewed of them shows a close-up image of the lead singer performing, and the other members in the background. 7. THE THEME FROM "S.W.A.T."- Rhythm Heritage- Something that, for me, is common with most TV Show theme songs is that I have never seen the actual show. This is another. 6. LONELY NIGHT (ANGEL FACE)- Captain and Tennille- I have read this News. I agree very much with Hervard. 5. DREAM WEAVER- Gary Wright- This does make me somewhat sleepy. 4. TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT- The Eagles- Here is another favorite song of mine from this Countdown! I was very happy to hear it! Although this version was short, I understand that there must be time for the other songs. 3. LOVE MACHINE (PART I)- The Miracles- The singer Smokey Robinson had left this band before this song was recorded. It reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. 2. ALL BY MYSELF- Eric Carmen- A very well job with this song, which was influenced by Classical Music from Sergei Rachmaninoff. This was its peak position on the Billboard Hot 100. 1. DECEMBER 1963 (OH WHAT A NIGHT)- The Four Seasons- A classic that has remained popular.
Thank you for reading.

#39-"Master Of Eyes"-Aretha Franklin-One of her lesser known chart entries-I'm surprised this wasn't a bigger hit. #38-"Hello,Hurray"-Alice Cooper-The second release from his album "Billion Dollar Babies"-Great song. #37-"Soul Song"-Joe Stampley-The only top forty hit for this native of Springhill,LA-Great song that was also a hit on the country chart. #36-"Good Morning Heartache"-Diana

hit,this Englishman (1923-2008) worked as an engineer at the famous Abbey Road studios in London-He supervised a good portion of The Beatles early releases which ended in 1965 with the release of their "Rubber Soul" album-"Oh,Babe" is a bonafide guilty pleasure. #32-"Give Me Your Love"-Barbara Mason-Great song. #31-"Sing"-Carpenters-Here's a song that was originally introduced on the long

written by Shel Silverstein. #7-"Crocodile Rock"-Elton John-His first #1 hit & a great homage to the music of the 1950's. #6-"Also Sprach Zarathustra"-Deodato-The only top forty hit for this Brazilian

#38-"Hello,Hurray"-Alice Cooper-The second release from his album "Billion Dollar Babies"-Great song. This was the first single released from "BDB". The classic-rock staple "No More Mr. Nice Guy", which charted higher, was the second single from the #1 LP.

I was actually going to post a critique for 1986, but then I realized that this would be post #83 for me, so I decided to go back and do last weekend's critique a few days late because it was 1983.
CHART CRITIQUE FOR MARCH 5, 1983
It was an unseasonably mild day in my part of the Northeast—58 degrees, the warmest day that month.
40 DON’T TELL ME YOU LOVE ME-NIGHT RANGER First of many hits for this mainstream AOR band stuck to their formula. 39 MAKE LOVE STAY-DAN FOGELBERG Reflective late winter sort of song, it was a mellow slice of pop that reached the top 30 in March 1983. The lyrics dealt with keeping a romance alive. Horn, sax, and guitar hooks drove the song along. 38 TIED UP-OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN So-so outing was a pop-rock tune that was sly-sounding but not overly catchy except for a flute solo during the bridge 37 LITTLE TOO LATE-PAT BENATAR Song begins impressively enough with crashing cymbals—has a good keyboard sound but otherwise arena rock by numbers. 36 POISON ARROW-ABC Soulful and mellow tune was a moderate pop hit. 35 I’M ALIVE-NEIL DIAMOND Upbeat song designed to cheer people up during the recession. Little did we know that this would be Diamond’s final top 40 hit. Pop tastes were changing because of the popularity of MTV. 34 JEOPARDY-GREG KIHN BAND Moody rhythm pop/rocker was the group’s sole top-10 pop hit. Good tune. 33 THE WOMAN IN ME-DONNA SUMMER Slow, wintry ballad; covered by Heart in 1994 32 MY KIND OF LADY-SUPERTRAMP Sweet-sounding tune with 1960s feel; was a romantic ballad, in contrast to the band’s usual cynical lyrics. I especially enjoyed the sax coda—probably would have been a much bigger hit in 1978-79. 31 DER KOMMISSAR-AFTER THE FIRE Fun, quirky Europop that was first done by Falco (“Rock Me Amadeus,” 1986). 30 DREAMIN’ IS EASY-STEEL BREEZE Synth pop in vein of their first hit; lyrics lamented an unrequited love. The song had a good guitar hook as well. 29 YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE-PHIL COLLINS Bass-driven remake of Supremes hit from 1966 Collins' first top-10 single (solo or as a member of Genesis) when this bouncy cover of the Supremes' 1966 hit, "You Can't Hurry Love," reached #10 on the chart. The song displays Collins's R&B leanings pretty well. When this song came on I always confused it with Hall & Oates' "Maneater" because of their similar-sounding intros. 28 I’VE GOT A ROCK AND ROLL HEART-ERIC CLAPTON Bluesy yet mellow slow burner—genuine sound 27 AFRICA-TOTO Melancholy, introspective ballad that became an adult contemporary staple—lyrics were about the need to get away from the rat race the song also had a guilt-tinged feeling. This song definitely had a pensive, November feel to it. 26 ON THE LOOSE-SAGA High-tech AOR number was mildly catchy. 25 COME ON EILEEN-DEXY’S MIDNIGHT RUNNERS Irish-influenced happy song that was spirited and fun—though overplayed through the years. 24 HEART TO HEART-KENNY LOGGINS Reflective ballad with Michael McDonald feel and a blue-eyed soul sound, similar to “This Is It” 23 GOODY TWO SHOES-ADAM ANT Party rock song with a mocking tone, a tribal beat, and a strong hook 22 I KNOW THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON-FRIDA Much harder rocking than her singles with Abba, it was her bid for AOR acceptance. 21 FALL IN LOVE WITH ME-EARTH, WIND & FIRE Upbeat, spring-sounding slice of pop-funk was their last top-40 pop hit. 20 MR. ROBOTO-STYX High-tech quasi-protest song about machines taking over the world. While panned by many critics and Styx fans, this was a guilty pleasure for me. 19 BREAKING US IN TWO-JOE JACKSON Thoughtful piano ballad with hopeful, late-winter sound 18 ONE ON ONE-DARYL HALL & JOHN OATES Mellow pop number with early spring-like sound, this was a good blue-eyed soul number. The song reminded me of the snow slowly melting on a March day. Lyrically, the song was about making making love--one on one. 17 ALLENTOWN-BILLY JOEL Well-written song with killer hook and lyrics about the loss of manufacturing jobs in southeastern Pennsylvania. This song I enjoyed because it was about my birthplace--and it discussed the economic recession, as well as the loss of manufacturing jobs in the early-80s. Like John Mellencamp's "Rain on the Scarecrow," Joel's "Allentown" sang of the adverse effect of the economy on struggling people. 16 TWILIGHT ZONE-GOLDEN EARRING AOR with a danceable beat—effectively straddled the lines between rock and pop 15 SEPARATE WAYS (WORLDS APART)-JOURNEY A plaintive rocker, this song effectively evokes the pain of a failed romance. Standard AOR/pop had good guitar hook, as well as synthesizer backing. 14 DOWN UNDER -MEN AT WORK Reggae beat and woodwind hook helped catapult this song into the stratosphere. This was a huge hit, and it was one of the most infectious songs of the '80s: There was an unforgettable reggae-tinged hook, a well-placed flute, and cryptic lyrics. 13 YOUR LOVE IS DRIVING ME CRAZY-SAMMY HAGAR AOR rocker was his first major pop hit; this mildly catchy song ended up being his biggest solo hit. 12 ALL RIGHT-CHRISTOPHER CROSS This upbeat song was popular during the difficult economic times of the early-‘80s— It was designed to lift people’s spirits up and had an early spring feel to it. 11 YOU ARE-LIONEL RICHIE Earnest mainstream pop outing also appealed to soul and AC listeners. 10 PASS THE DUTCHIE-MUSICAL YOUTH Reggae-tinged bubblegum song about a bowl of soup—a charming, fun song 9 BACK ON THE CHAIN GANG-PRETENDERS Jangly rocker with excellent hook and good lyrics 8 WE’VE GOT TONIGHT-KENNY ROGERS/SHEENA EASTON This country/pop duet was good, but I enjoyed the Bob Seger original more. 7 YOU AND I-EDDIE RABBITT/CRYSTAL GAYLE Country crossover hit was more AC than country; it would be the last time in the pop top 40 for either artist because of MTV. 6 BABY COME TO ME-PATTI AUSTIN/JAMES INGRAM Mellow quiet storm ballad that was a big pop and AC hit 5 HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF-DURAN DURAN Breakthrough hit by videogenic MTV act from Britain—this mildly catchy song managed to straddle the line between pretty-boy pop (for the teenage girls) and macho overtones (for their boyfriends). 4 DO YOU REALLY WANNA HURT ME-CULTURE CLUB Debut single by British pop group had soulful vibe and good hook. 3 STRAY CAT STRUT-STRAY CATS Quasi-novelty rocker had similar melody to Tennessee Ernie Ford’s 1955 hit “Sixteen Tons.” 2 SHAME ON THE MOON-BOB SEGER Seger is in reflective mode this time out—a winter sort of song. 1 BILLIE JEAN-MICHAEL JACKSON This excellent dance pop number, and it propelled Jackson into the stratosphere. The moody tension of the record, plus Quincy Jones's tight production, made this song work. The lyrics dealt with a woman who claimed that Michael was the father of her son--something the singer vehemently denied.
Should have made the top 40: BE GOOD JOHNNY-MEN AT WORK Catchy song about a kid who is being constantly reprimanded for daydreaming—the title was a take-off on Chuck Berry’s 1958 classic “Johnny Be Good.” This would most likely have been the third single from Business as Usual, but their next album would be released very soon.

And Be Good Johnny was used for the theme song of the US version of Supernanny.

CHART CRITIQUE FOR 3/15/86
Mid-March was a fun time for me—the calm before the stormiest part of the 1980s for me (April 1986). March 15, 1986 was the only time the girl of my dreams, Sue, was in my house. We had a fun time, and another friend of mine joined us. It was also the last time I did my own song chart for nearly four years. It was probably because my musical tastes were shifting from a CHR to an AC orientation (I was almost 25).
40 WEST END GIRLS PET SHOP BOYS Catchy, spring-sounding song that reminded me of Al Stewart 39 I THINK IT’S LOVE-JERMAINE JACKSON A bouncy, spring-sounding tune that I enjoyed 38 LIVE IS LIFE-OPUS One of my favorite songs in the countdown, this had a German beer-drinking song quality to it and was a lot of fun—should have peaked much higher than #32.” 37 THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR-DIONNE & FRIENDS Sincere ballad I liked as a current hit but was overplayed by AC stations over the next two decades or so 36 I’M NOT THE ONE-THE CARS Underrated ballad with a melodic hook and early spring hook—I believe this had originally been on their “Shake It Up” album. 35 I CAN’T WAIT-STEVIE NICKS This had a stronger hook and a greater sense of urgency than her previous single. The times were rough for me because the girl of my dreams had chosen another guy over me, leading to a breakdown in mid-April. As a result, the song, along with many others of the time, was bittersweet for me. Musically, the song does sound a bit dated, with a synth/drum machine-heavy arrangement. Ironically, at the time there was another song in the Hot 100 with the same title (by Nu Shooz, three weeks away from the top 40). 34 GOODBYE IS FOREVER-ARCADIA Catchy song I enjoyed better than “Election Day’ 33 CALLING AMERICA-ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA Enjoyable tune that has been overlooked 32 ADDICTED TO LOVE-ROBERT PALMER A song I found annoying—standard, aggressive AOR bluster. 31 NO EASY WAY OUT-ROBERT TEPPER Good mainstream tune with a driving beat, though the synths are quite dated. 30 NIGHT MOVES-MARILYN MARTIN Tuneful pop rocker that has been overlooked—has a good rumbling piano bridge.. 29 TENDER LOVE-FORCE M.D.’S romantic ballad that is difficult to listen to because the girl of my dreams was about to choose another guy over me (4/11/86). 28 DAY BY DAY-HOOTERS A fun, perky mainstream tune 27 A LOVE BIZARRE-SHEILA E Catchy tune with risqué lyrics and a good horn hook and instrumental bridge 26 STAGES-ZZ TOP Mainstream rock tune that fit AOR like a glove. 25 TARZAN BOY-BALTIMORA I was hoping that this would make the top 10, but it fell three places short. 24 ANOTHER NIGHT-ARETHA FRANKLIN Likable, if generic pop-sounding tune 23 HOW TO BE A MILLIONAIRE-ABC This had a good hook and was an apt commentary on Yuppie culture. 22 RUSSIANS-STING Loved it--his song had an excellent message, and I played it for my music journaling class back in January. 21 WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH-BILLY OCEAN Likable funk-pop tune—inspiring 20 BEAT’S SO LONELY-CHARLIE SEXTON Mainstream tune had a good rhythm, but otherwise was standard AOR fare. 19 MANIC MONDAY-THE BANGLES Great song—had a refreshing, springy melody that belied the tune’s lyrics 18 LIFE IN A NORTHERN TOWN-DREAM ACADEMY One of my favorites, I enjoyed the wind sound effects—and the mysteriousness of this tune.. 17 LIVING IN AMERICA-JAMES BROWN A fun, patriotic , pop-funk romp that was one of his biggest pop hits—it actually did better on the pop than on the black chart. 16 LET’S GO ALL THE WAY-SLY FOX Steely, wintry-sounding pop rocker 15 KISS-PRINCE Funky tune had an impeccable guitar riff. 14 SANCTIFY YOURSELF-SIMPLE MINDS Generic modern rock tune 13 THE SWEETEST TABOO-SADE A well-written and sung smooth jazz number by a gifted artist 12 THIS COULD BE THE NIGHT-LOVERBOY Rock power ballad had a good early spring sound and was their final top-10 pop hit. 11 WHAT YOU NEED-INXS Not one of my favorites, this was a bit aggressive for me. 10 NIKITA-ELTON JOHN Standard Elton John fare, this was a bit too wintry blah for me. 9 KING FOR A DAY-THOMPSON TWINS Not bad but overly synthesized 8 SILENT RUNNING-MIKE/MECHANICS Great song that was first an AOR smash by late 1985. 7 ROCK ME AMADEUS-FALCO Slamming pop tune was a guilty pleasure and one of my favorites back then—it reminded me of the wild temperature swings we had in March 1986—the biggest ever for a single calendar month—from 2 above to 81 (Wait, this isn’t the weather message board. LOL!) 6 R-O-C-K IN THE USA-JOHN MELLENCAMP The biggest hit from "Scarecrow," soaring to #2 in the spring of 1986. It has a springlike feel to it--you can't help but to drop the top and hit the gas when it comes on the radio--the song's a real cruiser. The opening chords are reminiscent of Neil Diamond's 1967 hit, "Thank the Lord for the Night Time." 5 HOW WILL I KNOW-WHITNEY HOUSTON Catchy up-tempo number had a strong hook. 4 SECRET LOVERS-ATLANTIC STARR Slow jam about cheating had subtle hook 3 KYRIE-MR. MISTER Mainstream rock power ballad I enjoyed at the time 2 THESE DREAMS-HEART This excellent, haunting pop/rock ballad was nearing the top spot. 1 SARA-STARSHIP Enjoyable mainstream pop tune with a late winter/early spring feel—it went well as winter was segueing into spring.
Should have made the top 40: “I’VE LEARNED TO RESPECT THE POWER OF LOVE-STEPHANIE MILLS—A soulful R&B slow jam that failed to even reach the Hot 100 despite reaching #1 on the black singles chart. I heard this on an R&B show and taped it, so it was able to make my own chart.

American Top 40: The 80s - March 15, 2014
This week's presentation - March 15, 1986
Droppers: NEEDLES AND PINS - TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS w/STEVIE NICKS (37) - Their second duet to hit the Top 40 chart. BURNING HEART - SURVIVOR (34) - Great song! Definitely my favorite of their two big Rocky hits! CONGA - MIAMI SOUND MACHINE (30) - It's okies, but one of my least favorites from them.
40: WEST END GIRLS - PET SHOP BOYS (debut) - Good song. I did, however prefer their next hit, which charted that summer. 39: I THINK IT'S LOVE - JERMAINE JACKSON (debut) - Great song! This was right up there with his two 1984 hits! 38: LIVE IS LIFE - OPUS (debut) - Meh, not a fan of this one. 37: THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR - DIONNE & FRIENDS (29) - Good song, and for a good cause. I do prefer other songs from all four artists involved, though. 36: I'M NOT THE ONE - THE CARS (39) - Great song! I felt that this one was underrated. LDD: IF EVER YOU'RE IN MY ARMS AGAIN - PEABO BRYSON - Great song! It's also fitting for the dedication (although it would seem more appropriate coming from the subject of the dedication rather than the author 35: I CAN'T WAIT - STEVIE NICKS (40) - Great song! One of her best solo hits! 34: GOODBYE IS FOREVER - ARCADIA (33) - This was pretty good - sounded a little more like Duran Duran than their other hit. 33: CALLING AMERICA - ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA (36) - Great song! One of their best, and most underrated hits. 32: ADDICTED TO LOVE - ROBERT PALMER (38) - This is OK, but way overplayed. OPTIONAL EXTRA: BAD BOY - MIAMI SOUND MACHINE - Great song! Definitely a song I associate most with the spring of 1986! 31: NO EASY WAY OUT - ROBERT TEPPER (35) - Not a bad song - he sounds a little like Robert Palmer. 30: NIGHT MOVES - MARILYN MARTIN (31) - Great song! She certainly didn't fare quite as well on the chart as a solo artist as she had as part of a duet with a well-established artist. 29: TENDER LOVE - FORCE MD'S (32) - Great song! Frankie J's 2003 hit "Don't Wanna Try" reminds me of this song. LDD: WAKE ME UP BEFORE YOU GO-GO - WHAM - Very inspiring LDD, but the song didn't really seem appropriate (except that the subject of the LDD liked Wham!). Also, I wondered why this was placed so close to the first LDD. It's true that there were three of them this week, but the last one was very close to the end of the show. 28: DAY BY DAY - THE HOOTERS (18) - Good song - not sure if I prefer this or "And We Danced". Interesting that this song mirrors its jump to its peak, which it had reached three weeks prior. 27: A LOVE BAZAAR - SHEILA E (22) - This was OK, but certainly not one of my favorites. 26: STAGES - ZZ TOP (21) - Great song, like all four of the Afterburner singles. 25: TARZAN BOY - BALTIMORA (15) - Great song! Makes me want to gargle with Listerine Cool Mint mouthwash! 24: ANOTHER NIGHT - ARETHA FRANKLIN (27) - Good song, but I preferred the title track of the album from which this was released. 23: HOW TO BE A MILLIONAIRE - ABC (25) - Good song 22: RUSSIANS - STING (16) - Great song! I liked the eerie melody to this! OPTIONAL EXTRA: HARLEM SHUFFLE - ROLLING STONES - This one was OK, but one of my least favorites from them. 21: WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GET GOING - BILLY OCEAN (12) - Good song, though I generally liked his slower songs. 20: BEAT'S SO LONELY - CHARLIE SEXTON (23) - This was pretty good, but nothing exceptional. 19: MANIC MONDAY - THE BANGLES (26) - Great song! One of their best! 18: LIFE IN A NORTHERN TOWN - THE DREAM ACADEMY (9) - Great song! Definitely has that northern town feel to it, especially with the blowing wind sound effects. 17: LIVING IN AMERICA - JAMES BROWN (8) - I was never a huge fan of this song. 16: LET'S GO ALL THE WAY - SLY FOX (24) - Good song. Another one I closely associate with the spring of 1986! 15: KISS - PRINCE & THE REVOLUTION (28) - This might have been OK had Prince chosen not to sing falsetto. 14: SANCTIFY YOURSELF - SIMPLE MINDS (20) - Great song! This looked like it would be their third straight Top Ten hit, but, in fact, this was where the song peaked. 13: SWEETEST TABOO - SADE (7) - Good song, but I preferred a few others from them. 12: THIS COULD BE THE NIGHT - LOVERBOY (19) - Great song! One of my favorites from them! 11: WHAT YOU NEED - INXS (17) - Good song. Much better than the overplayed "Need You Tonight". OPTIONAL EXTRA: YOUR LOVE - THE OUTFIELD - Good song. I preferred the next hit "All The Love In The World", but liked this a lot better than their third hit "Everytime You Cry", which didn't quite hit the Top 40. 10: NIKITA - ELTON JOHN (13) - Good song, but far from being his best. 9: KING FOR A DAY - THE THOMPSON TWINS (10) - Good song - about par for the course for them. 8: SILENT RUNNING - MIKE & THE MECHANICS (6) - Good song, though I preferred their next two hits. 7: ROCK ME AMADEUS - FALCO (14) - They played the version of the song without the chronology of Mozart's life, and that's my favorite of the three versions that I've heard (the third is sort of a hybrid mix of the two songs that were most commonly played - that version was played on the April 6 show, when this song was spending its second week at #1). 6: R.O.C.K. IN THE U.S.A. - JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP (11) - Good song - I had my own version of this song, changing the first two letters of the first spelled-out word. I'll let you figure that one out. 5: HOW WILL I KNOW - WHITNEY HOUSTON (3) - Well, I used to like this song until radio stations felt the need to play it no less than 20 times a day. 4: SECRET LOVERS - ATLANTIC STARR (5) - Good song, although the subject matter of the song is so wrong. LDD: MORNING HAS BROKEN - CAT STEVENS - This was OK, but I prefer a few others from him. 3: KYRIE - MISTER MISTER (1) - This song wasn't bad, but not as good as their first #1. 2: THESE DREAMS - HEART (4) - Great song! One of their best! 1: SARA - STARSHIP (2) - Wow, Heart and Grace holding down the top two spots? I'm sure JessieLou felt like a kid in a candy store! Anyway, I loved this song when it first came out, but then, like the Whitney Houston song, it was grossly overplayed and I, along with my Dad and brother, was tired of it. It's good to hear once in awhile, but I'm still somewhat burned out on it.
Predictions for next week: Based on the hints I've heard, once again, there seem to be only two possibilities for next week. My main prediction is March 23, 1985 (with one of the best power ballads of all time at #1) and my back-up is March 26, 1988 (with a very moving LDD in the final hour).
