This chart really takes me back. I remember loving that Vanessa Williams ballad (great production), Cher, Seal, Mariah's "Forever," Michael English, Elton John's "Blessed" (maybe my favorite ballad of his) and Jane Kelly Williams. (Very Random!)

I loved the Jane Kelly Williams song, "Breaking In To The Past". Kind of a surprise that it only got to #27, seeing as it peaked at #16 on the R&R chart. Then again, both charts had different recurrent rules. While a song could spend an unlimited number of weeks on the chart as long as it remained in the Top 20 on Billboard, R&R had sort of an arbitrary rule that songs at or below #15 that declined for three consecutive weeks were moved to recurrent. That, however, kept the chart relatively fresh.
