Are you a fan of 70's and 80's hits? This is the podcast for you. 12 of the 20 songs in this set are from those fabulous decades, including Howard Jones, U2, Belinda Carlisle AND Ray Parker Jr. all making their debut appearances. And several more in the 90's! We have a song re-released 3 years after its initial chart run and went 53 spots higher! Blasphemy title followed by a heavenly pop hit, back-to-back! One of the best voices of the 80's doing a solo hit that sounds a lot like his band. And the 3rd straight podcast featuring a song from an animated film. You cannot miss this episode. It's delightful!
I am not affiliated with Billboard nor with American Top 40. Just a huge fan that loves to talk about pop music.
