Would it be surprised if the weekend of April 27-28, 2024 is 4/23/1988? For the umpteenth year in a row, my ever-dimming hopes are for 4/25/81, one of my favorite countdowns, song-wise. Looks like you may get your wish.

Looks like you may get your wish. This is the only time Casey does not say that "The Party's Over" is a live hit. Said it was for its first 3 weeks on AT40 and then did not in this, its last week in the countdown.

Maybe the next time 1988 would be played on AT40: The 80's could be May 2024 with 5/21/1988 or 5/28/1988. 5/21/88 has only been an A once, in 2014 (it was also a B in 2017) so it’s due. 5/28 was last played in 2020 and 5/7 in 2021 so either is possible (5/14/88 was played in 2022 and so is probably out.) 1988 is overdue in general. With 1983 and 1981 set to fill out April, I think we should see 1988 in May and then in June and/or July.

Okay, so... did Michael J. Fox play on "Light of Day," or not? Casey always said he did, but it's been my impression the record was only JJ & the Blackhearts.

If you saw the first "Back To The Future" movie in 1985,Michael J.Fox was seen playing the guitar-I think he was faking it.

2 mistakes in the same segment. A few weeks ago, Casey answered the question about live #1 hits incorrectly when he listed "Bennie & the Jets" and "Got to Give It Up" as live #1s. They figured it out that Bennie is not live but still think Got to is live. Both are manufactured live songs. Coincidentally, exactly 6 years earlier to the date on the 4/11/81 show, Casey made the same mistake with Journey's "The Party's Over" as he is making with the Marvin Gaye hit. In both cases they are from live albums but these hits are the only ones on those albums that are not live(simply a studio hit with no manufactured live aspects in the case of Journey). And when he says that Glenn Medeiros is the youngest since France Joli, he is overlooking Stacy Lattisaw who was 13 when she had her first hit in 1980 and 14 when she had her second hit in 1981. For the AT40 4/10/1987 QL about live #1's Casey never mentioned "Bennie and the Jets".

Right that's why I wrote that AT40 figured out that Bennie was not a live hit. The date of the show is 4/11/87.

In the 1987 show Casey mentions “Cassingles” (singles on Cassettes, remember those?). Boy that brings back memories. I think the first one I ever bought was “Vogue” by Madonna and my parents were not happy lol (Madonna was half naked of course).

It was packaged, not in a cheap paper sleeve, but in a standard plastic case. The B side was a Bryan Adams production called "Don't Turn Around," which would be covered by Ace of Base.
