24 May 2017: it's... Star Wars

[CapnJack]

5/24:

On today’s edition of Soundwaves 10@10, we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Star Wars,
with tribute songs, parodies, and bona fide global smashes that couldn’t help but reference
that galaxy far, far away. And yes, there are TWO songs from “Weird Al” Yankovic today.
The Force is strong with this edition!

Not bad, the obligatory Meco chart-topper notwithstanding. BOS: Chewbacca.
