OMG, one of LVKs all time favorite shows w/ Elt, Bee Gees, Paul Anka and a discoy Donny and Marie!!! Bread and Stephen Bishop!? And that's just the first hour!! De de de de de de de NEWS FLASH!!!!! I'm happy to report that I'm "Alive Again" (I did have Covid, so don't "Freak Out" ) and one thing I learned is that "Everybody Needs Love" despite on "How You Gonna See Me Now". But wait a minute, "Hold The Line" do I have "Double Vision"? I see that someone left the cake out in the rain which is not a good thing for this "Blue Collar Man" Finally, is there a "MacArthur Park" in Salem? |

During a few different timespans, I would say that over 75% or even 80% of the songs are good.
- November 1992 through March 1993
- November 2002 through March 2003
- November and December 2003
- December 2004 and January 2005
- January and February of 2007 and 2008
Seems to be an interesting parallel here for me. Seems like Fall and Winter and early Spring having better hits.

Seems like Fall and Winter and early Spring having better hits. I am a huge fan of the November 1992 through March 1993 shows. I mean if you can bookend a time period with The Heights and Snow, then that works for me! I also love from a CT standpoint the huge jump for Whitney at #1...but also love that during this time the largest drop ever on CT 40 happened during as well with d**n Yankees (or at least until Linkin Park came around in 17 and came close to eclipsing it). I also love the Nov-March 02/03 shows as well, as well as the late 03 shows. The beginning of 08 is a favorite time of mine as well. Good choices! |

Seems like Fall and Winter and early Spring having better hits. Yes -- and quite a contrast to the old days, when the summer months seemed to produce the best songs. That does seem to have flipped over time. |

You're right, so many unique hits were out at those times. Funny you should mention them, but the Heights are definitely one of the groups I was thinking of that made that point so great. Also with fantastic hits by Duran Duran, Spin Doctors, and R.E.M. added in too. I would say 2002, 2003, and early 2008 seemed like the best points of the 2000s for AT40. 2004 had some good stuff too. |
