Mark said Dino started with 1987's Summergirls. It first charted 7/88. Then Alan Blew My Mind, peaking New Kids at #10, really #8.

Mark said Cannibals were headed to #11. They had been there and done that and weren't Looking Back on their way off the chart.

In their ever changing definition of a hit, Alan said One was BeeGees first biggie since 1979. Okay maybe #24 and #30 don't count. But then he said countdown 'Time was Cher's big comeback hit. What about her two tenners in the two years preceding?

It's because the VJs are a bunch of idiot relics who always contradict themselves because they're too burnt out to fact check anything and should all be laughed at and chastised with you leading everyone. Happy? Oh, and by the way, since I know you are going to chime in about this, YES that is unfortunately the version of Sowing The Seeds Of Love that they always play.

They took an inordinately long song and trimmed it down. Casey did that all the time. At least they played the correct version. I comment about real flubs like Nina calling Paula Abdul- Jabbar's song (It's Just) "The Way You Love Me"

I comment about real flubs like Nina calling Paula Abdul- Jabbar's song (It's Just) "The Way You Love Me" Yes but they could have done a way better job with it. At least when it would be edited on AT40 and CT40, it was actually cohesive instead of gutting almost the entire bridge and a verse toward the end.

Also, why go crazy shortening that song if they're going to play extra long versions of Love Shack and It's No Crime? It's not like this show has a time limit like AT40 did.

I'm starting a new feature where I predict the number of errors Casey lite will make. For 1982 I'm going with moderate. As a bonus prediction I say we get two references to this being a year after the start of MTV and/ or charts still being a mixed bag in spite of that.

Could've fooled me; after reading this thread, feels like it's already "high" or "extreme". OMG, call the fire department already!!!

If Nina screws up tonight, she can blame it on the "Oct 22nd" chart
