Feh.
sorry, no interest in this... I'm heading back to Radio de Sebb.

I wasn't planning on being interested in this either...but 3 songs so far and 2 BOS's. (Joe Satriani/Peter Gabriel.) A few rain-related songs so far. Sounds like it'll be listenable.

me either, but I heard The Who's 5:15, automatic BOS and good place to leave and go to The Sound.

File under "Good set for a day I have something else to do at 10am." Which I did.

They did play yesterday's set in the 7am hour -- I caught the last few songs when I woke up shortly before 8. Next thing I know I'm hearing AL's voice and it's not another 10@10. It's been a few years since they did a KaBOOM set on 10@10, Dave had abandoned those a while ago. But I can't remember a Saturday morning "KaBOOM is tonite! YAY!" show, like, ever. Ticket sales must've *really* been below expectations.
But hearing "Hot Hot Hot" reminded me: that has to be one of the most-played singles to not make the Top 40. I recall it getting a TON of airplay in late '87/early '88.

Yep, I found myself listening to the Giants extended pregame show instead.
Maybe I should look around, but I'm very curious about how this year's event went.

It's between "Hot ^ 3" and "What I Like About You" for that crown.

Another two: "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?" and Sarah McLachlan's "Possession".
I'm, of course, only counting singles that would have been Top 40-eligible in their time.

WILAY didn't make the Top 40? That astounds me. I remember hearing it pretty much hourly back in the heyday of the Rock of the 80s format.

it's one of those classic near-misses: got to #49. HUGE on the "cool" AOR stations in NYC ("Rock of the '80s" -- KROQ and the like -- didn't really exist yet in early 1980) but Top 40 was becoming more adult-contempo by the day, and MTV was a year-and-a-half away. Talk about bad timing.
