55 50 DELERIUM Silence Nettwerk 2000 164 131 33

Just one question (specifically to Hot AC Guru or Cerebro), was there a candlelight/acoustic version of Delerium's "Silence" (the song at #50) that was played on Hot AC? Obviously the name attraction of Sarah McLachlan on vocals is merit alone that this classic trance song would be played, but it still heavily surprised me considering the genre it's from. :o

23 23 DIAMOND, MACKA Bun Him VP 2006 822 878 -56

I have never heard of this song or artist. Is this a joke of some sort? I have tracked the R-n-R HAC charts since 1999 and there is no record of this whatsoever.

EDIT: Googled it, and it appears to be a reggae hit off of a 2006 album. Perhaps Mediabase was including a few more island stations at the time?

Apart from this, the only other song on this list I don't remember at all was Robert Bradley's "Baby".

As far as "Silence" goes, the only version I ever heard being played was the one with Sarah McLachlan singing.

Here's the R&R HAC chart that seems to be closest to the chart above. Sorry about the format, Word files don't copy too well here.

Also, I really don't know if the song f/ Sarah had a candlelight version.

LOL!

[Adam (UTR)]

Oh, they still haven't fixed it!

#23 is supposed to BBMak's "Back Here". I reported this to them when I had my original access, but I guess they never solved it.

Ok, that makes a lot more sense!

Big thanks, Adam. Just fixed.
