Lot of flubs so far especially considering Error Hunter isn't even there to help out.
Nina dropped Starship nine, really 26-15. Then she said Walk was the 4th single, really 2nd from Brothers In Arms after Dire's 'Money.

For those keeping score at home Casey lite played #21 Conga in the #23 spot, before the real #23 Friend of Mine. Go Home at #22 then straight to Wham's 'Man at #20

After a well deserved week off I return hoping to find VJs NYs resolution is fewer flubs:
1. Starting off "1/4/80' was Nina in her weekly content screw up saying countdown year 1980 was when Sally became an astronaut. But we didn't actually Ride Sally Ride into space until 1983. 2. OMG, Mark said M was "Rick" Scott! 3. In their ever changing definition of a hit, Alan had a Breakdown saying Petty's 'Torpedos produced his first. 4. Alan said Jefferson Starship's other biggie was We Built This City.... of course by that time they were being billed as just Starship. 5. Alan said countdown We Don't Talk Anymore was Cliff's biggest but his Devil Woman peaked one slot higher. 6. Mark said Escape was the first #1 of the 80s?? This is the first chart of the 80s as they have told us several times and Rupert is at #2?!?

I think I heard this chart referred to as "1/19/84" and "1/20/84"
1. Alan said In The Mood was just into the top 40 this week... it was actually the final of five panels. 2. In her weekly content screw up Nina said Stevie Nicks album was released in 1984, really 1983. Then she called Motels countdown song Remember the "Night" 3. Alan peaked Stay With Me Tonight at #18, but it was stalling right here at #30 4. In their ever changing definition of a hit, Alan said there were 4 from Osbourne's countdown album. but there were only three Hot 100 entries. Then Nina said Shannon was a one hit wonder but she registered a couple more near top 40 misses. 5. Alan said countdown Time Will Reveal was Debrage's biggest to that point before they got the 'Rhythm. That peaked at #18 or a slot lower than All This Love. 6. Mark called Chris Cross' countdown song Thinking of Laura. Then Alan said Pink Houses was JM but he still was billed by Cougar at that point. 7. Mark held Richie at #9, really 9-10. 8. Alan said countdown I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues was the first since 1975 with the classic Elt lineup... that was actually I'm Still Standing

^Mark said the original German version of 99 Luftballoons did not chart in the USA. MTV and American radio originally played the German version. Then switched to the English words version of the song and the video.

Then switched to the English words version of the song and the video. No surprise that Mark totally butchered that explanation up, but those are your experts. The English version was the flip so per the Billboard rules in place at the time both sides were combined into one chart entry. It basically killed the double-sided-hit single. Given that both versions got significant airplay, I think both titles should have been shown like was done in Radio and Records. It would have been interesting seeing the chart action for each side. www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Archive-RandR/1980s/1984/RR-1984-01-20.pdf

In her weekly content screw up Nina said countdown Don't Tell Me Lies was Breathe's first single but they had already had 2 top tenners. 3. In their ever changing definition of a hit, Mark said Boy Meets Girl finally tasted success on their own w/countdown 'Star. They had already been in the top 40 with Oh Girl 4. In her weekly chart screw up, Nina ^ Erasure and Escape Club five and six, really 27-33 and 28-36 5. Mark held Info Society at #19, really Walking 19-21 6. Nina said Armageddon It was their 3rd top tenner, really 4th for the Defs

Alan cannot say "Roni" correctly. He said it as in "Ronnie" Spector.
Someone said on Facebook that they played the completely wrong song around #22.

They played #2 and 3 out of order Nina also said week of 3/22 when announcing #1. Makes me wonder if they had intended to play that week instead Those would have been the correct 2 & 3 on the '3/22/87" chart. Nina called Madonna's song on the countdown La "Ila" Bonita. And Jets countdown song If You Got It All

Alan was the Guilty party! 5. Mark said Diamond has had 10 pop/AC #1s, really 11 as Song Sung Blue was a double dipper.

Mark said Arthur was on Chris Cross debut album; apparently, "Arthur's Theme" was tacked on some (much) later pressings but it definitely wasn't there initially. 3. In her weekly content screw up Nina said ABBA split in 1981 but it wasn't until after 82s Visitors 4. Alan said Beat It was the 2nd Thriller single... really 3rd 5. Mark said it would be a couple weeks for DMRs to get to #1 but as we heard on the real thing from 4/23/83 airing this week, Come On Eileen was there.
