Interesting that Ryan uses R&R chart data even for periods of time where AT40 did not use that chart. In this week's show, said "Down Under" spent 5 weeks at #1 which is true for R&R but not the Hot 100.

It was often confusing, especially early in the CT40 era, to hear him give data that in many cases contradicted what listeners once heard him count down. |

Yes, when I heard that about Men at work, I thought they were so many weeks. IMHO Ryan has taken the chart fact from the source that fixes better the chart story about Sia and number of weeks at number 1.

This is an example , last show. CHR 091016 Thanks for this, but I could not open the file. Interesting that Ryan uses R&R chart data even for periods of time where AT40 did not use that chart. In this week's show, said "Down Under" spent 5 weeks at #1 which is true for R&R but not the Hot 100. He probably has no choice, if any specific chart data were quoted that even sniffed Billboard, then they would be all over it to cease and desist. Just ask allmusic.com |

It was often confusing, especially early in the CT40 era, to hear him give data that in many cases contradicted what listeners once heard him count down. But there are exceptions and here is one. On the 9/22/01 AT40, Casey said, "25 years ago, the #1 song on American Top 40 was "Play That Funky Music"'. This can only be a Hot 100 and therefore actual AT40 reference because that did not hit #1 on R&R. |

Based on my own listening to these shows the way I do, it seems when AT40 restarted, #1 history at least for Casey hosted shows was whatever he had hosted. If he gave a week from when he was hosting AT40, it was BB's #1, if it was from during his WW1 years, he referenced R&R's. Ryan's is apparently dependent on whatever story they want to tell that day (ie Purple Rain being mentioned as a #1 and this issue with Men at Work).

Ryan's chart history is almost always R&R/Mediabase late 1973 and onward.

The man in that photo, might be our president, was asked by Ryan what three different college lingo terms meant. Since his daughters are nearing college age. And he got 'em all right! Little harder than those trivia questions Casey used to ask during the 90s on CT40. But easier than the ones he asked in the reincarnated AT40.
How bout that. There has been more changeover at the #1 position since 1989, which makes 2016 the best year in that regard during the Soundscan era. With the time remaining in the year, I could see the most changeover at #1 since the 70s happening.

This must be the time of the year that the Forbes list of the top earnings among celebrities comes out. Ryan mentioned the top comedians this week. And this week in 1988, Shadoe mentioned all the recording artists in that top 40. Back then, it covered the previous 2 years and the top 3 celebrities were Steven Spielberg at $64,000,000 in third place, Bill Cosby at $92,000,000 in second place with Michael Jackson topping the lIst at $97,000,000. (The recording artists in that top 40 besides MJ were Bon Jovi, Whitney Houston, Kenny Rogers, Prince and Sting).

Spoiler for johnnywest who is listening to this week's show now. But the new #1 song has a line in it, "So baby pull me closer in the back seat of your Rover". Not sure if that last word in the sentence is capitalized in the actual lyrics but I have to capitalize it and capitalize on the situation here. Because I happen to own that model car and now you can see it, a 1969 British car. "Closer" by the Chain Smokers is that #1 song.

Probably so but both vehicles are made by the same company. In fact, at the British car show at North Hills last spring (you are from Raleigh so I mention that), my car was sandwiched in between 2 of the Land Rover 4 wheel drives.
