Cherish is currently in the top 40. Their last top 40 hit was in 2008. The song title "Cherish" skipped the '70s--The Association hit number 1 in the '60s with their song by that title. There were two songs called "Cherish" in the 1980s: one by Kool & the Gang in 1985 and the other by Madonna in 1989. I just met a woman named Cherish the other day. That title did not skip the 70s. David Cassidy covered the Association hit in 1971-72.

It deserves to be aired out so it can become more accurate.

If Little Richard made the AT40 reaches in 1986 with "Great Gosh 'O Mighty" (which missed AT40 territory by 2 spots peaking at #42 on Billboard's Hot 100) he would have joined the "Top 40 artists that skipped a decade" club.

We could never have missed Lulu more than we did in the 1970s as she hit the top 40 in 1969 and 1981 but not in between.

Her #22 hit, "Oh Me Oh My (I'm A Fool For You Baby)" entered the Hot 100 at the tail end of 1969, but spent all its time in the Top 40 in early 1970. So she did have one '70's hit, barely.

Casey even confirmed as such (though not mentioning when during 1970); I remember his mentioning it during her 1981 chart run of "I Could Never Miss You (More Than I Do)". I listened to all the 1981 shows in recent months.

Correct, and I love that song!

John Travolta missed the 80s in R&R and then came back in 1996-97 with “The Grease Megamix.”

On AT40's Hot AC version, Jordin Sparks missed the '10s but she charted in the '00s and is now in the '20s. Also, Joan Jett skipped 2 decades.

Fatboy Slim could soon be hitting AT40 with "Praising You." He missed the 2010s.

On the AT40: The 80's 8/6/1988 episode (The last Casey AT40 prior to Shadoe Stevens's takeover) OPTIONAL EXTRA of "The Loco-Motion" by Kylie Minogue, Larry Morgan mentioned Kylie is one of many artists to hit the top 40 to skip a decade and also mentioned Meat Loaf, David Cassidy, and Enya She might possibly do it again; she has a new song from her upcoming album called Padam Padam that's her first huge UK/Australian hit in over a decade and could become her first Top 40 song since Love At First Sight in 2002.

Jimmy Buffett skipped two decades between Fins and It's Five O'Clock Somewhere I don't think "Five 'O Clock Somewhere" in the 2010's made Ryan Seacrest's AT40 chart.
