The theme of this episode, as we start to wind down Season 1 and the first 1000 songs of this countdown, is debuts from the legends! There are 7 artists/acts that are household names making their first entry into this countdown… after 900 songs without hearing any of them! Billy Ocean! Santana! Boyz II Men! Destiny's Child! All with memorable tracks that kick off their Billboard Top 40 stay! Also a double sided #2 hit from that time when 2 songs could chart together. And 2 early rap pioneers, both funky, but one of them… not as funky. So many of these hits you've heard and remember before.
Wonderful nostalgic ride of pop songs from throughout rock history in the greatest countdown podcast ever! Come take a listen! We have fans in over 70 countries and almost 1000 cities worldwide!!
I am not affiliated with Billboard nor with American Top 40. Just a huge fan that loves to talk about pop music.
