[friday]

I never thought I'd hear an Alice Cooper song used in a Long Distance Dedication. Moreover, I never thought I'd hear an Alice Cooper song that could be (and was) covered by Frank Sinatra.

[cartman2002]

What Sinatra album is his take of "You And Me" comes from?

[friday]

I don't know if he ever recorded it (he did have a song called "You and Me" from the late 70's, but it wasn't written by Cooper), but he definitely performed it; apparently Cooper was backstage at a show at the Hollywood Bowl when Sinatra sang the song.

[jdelachjr2002]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Btw "Promises In The Dark" by Pat Benatar was that other song I didn't identify that fell off the Top 40 chart back in 11/14/1981.

This weekend's AT40 show will be from 11/23/1985:

[620 Soul Train]

Hello that was an unforgettable episode that they played just last weekend. Here is my review what I call then and now. 1985 and 2008

40: LOVE IS THE SEVENTH WAVE – STING - That reggae beat killed it for me (1985) (2008) - Not a bad song and I like the lyrics especially. My baby sister wants to meet the guy. Well I wanna meet Casey Kasem, really, but anyway...

39: THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR – DIONNE & FRIENDS- (1985) Way too slow (2008) - Powerful record, glad it made loads of money

38: YOU’RE A FRIEND OF MINE – CLARENCE CLEMONS AND JACKSON BROWNE - I will always like this cut!!! Way under-rated!

37: CONGA – MIAMI SOUND MACHINE (10) - First non-R&B record that I have ever purchased. Still gets me going but I prefer their other singles from the "Primitive Love" LP. After a while it gets old again.

36: BURNING HEART - SURVIVOR (6) - Bland never liked it and probably never will. "Is This Love" is still a killer. That song is the one of theirs I absolutely enjoy. "The Search Is Over" isn't bad either.

35: EMERGENCY – KOOL & THE GANG - (1985) I bought this single and it was hot n' sensual. (2008) Just plain annoying

34: LOVIN’ EVERY MINUTE OF IT - LOVERBOY - (1985) Totally awesome and off the chain (2008) Prefer their ballads, what was I thinking?

33: WALK OF LIFE – DIRE STRAITS - I have always liked this record it's just like drinking a glass of fresh squeezed lemonade! My dad used to spin the "Brother In Arms" tape each time we went on road trips in England. Gosh I miss that ole morning fog.

32: OBJECT OF MY DESIRE - STARPOINT - (1985) During it's peak, "What You Been Missin" was climbing the Soul charts. This song got absolutely no airplay in Wichita, KS. KSKU aired this episode and it was the only time that I heard this on a "pop" station. This made the Top 80 of 1986 for it's longevity. This was a "burn out" for me by the time this song charted at "pop" anyway. (2008) Still a "hot" classic

31: RUNNING UP THAT HILL – KATE BUSH - (1986) This was boring at first listen, I did not hear this song until the week of 11/30/86 that week that it peaked at #30 and Casey Kasem actually did a story on her. I think it was about her signing to EMI Records at a very young age, not certain. I was surprised when it fell out the very next week. Had no idea it was a slow climber either.

So after the song peaked in the US, my family and I moved to England in February of 1986. I heard this woman's voice again! This time it was the follow-up that never charted in the US, the title track "Hounds Of Love". I loved the video and the song. She performed this on the Top Of The Pops. However, her lone American hit was always on the radio there and I feel in love with this song forever more!!!

30: TONIGHT SHE COMES – THE CARS - (1985) This was OK nothing special. (2008) Still feel nothing

29: ONE NIGHT LOVE AFFAIR – BRYAN ADAMS - I ignored it then and I ignore now. Totally bland, now I know why it's on his "Collection" album, released in 1993.

28: WRAP HER UP – ELTON JOHN - (1985) Man they used to kill this on jukebox over in England. I could not wait for this to go off. (2008) I like it this quite a bit

27: SO IN LOVE – ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVERS IN THE DARK - (1987) I saw this finally on German Music Box and it was booooring, man. I never heard this song when it was out in 1985. Of course I heard "If You Leave" which is the ultimate cut!

26: SISTERS ARE DOING IT FOR THEMSELVES – EURYTHMICS AND ARETHA FRANKLIN - (1985) Kinda boring and meaningless at the time (2008) Lyrics have a great message and I find absolutely soulful from two of some of the best soulful female singers.

25: SMALL TOWN – JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP - (1985) A little better than "Lonely Ol Night". Still wasn't much into his music, yet. (2008) I enjoy this a little more, but not much.

24: SAVING ALL MY LOVE FOR YOU – WHITNEY HOUSTON - (1985) It was all about her! I loved this song but then I got "burned out" on this gradually. (2008) OK song after finding out what this was really about. Infidelity - not down with that mess!

23: TAKE ON ME – A-HA - Always will be a classic, and it's not because of the video. I love that pop synth sound, but this song can get "old" rather quickly if it's spun too frequently.

22: SAY YOU, SAY ME – LIONEL RICHIE - Once again this song is absolutely timeless! Left off a soundtrack album? Did not realise that one until now. These people and their bottom lines...I tell ya

21: PERFECT WAY – SCRITTI POLITTI - One hit wonder? Not! (in my eyes anyway) I cannot get enough of some of their songs such as "Boom! There She Was (with the late Roger Troutman)", "Oh Patti" and their monster UK smash "Wood Beez (pray like aretha franklin)". The latter was another one of those timeless UK classics. When I was in England this was always on the radio, and it was a hit in 1984. And of course this song is timeless just as well, can't get enough of it.

20: SOUL KISS – OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN - (1985) Loved it and it was sooo appalling when it peaked only at #20. She was guest on Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 just as well. (2008) Still a classic.

19: I MISS YOU - KLYMAXX - (1985) Sounded like "Ben" by Wacko Jacko (MJ) when I first heard it. I found it depressing. (2008) Now it's hot timeless ballad. The LP version sucks booty!

18: ALIVE & KICKING – SIMPLE MINDS - Loved it then and love it now! I was appalled when "All The Things She Said", the same groove as this song failed to climb higher than #28.

17: PARTY ALL THE TIME – EDDIE MURPHY - Hot then and hot now. But then again, this song seems so mindless, you know, now that I have grown up after all these years.

16: LOVE THEME FROM ST. ELMO’S FIRE – DAVID FOSTER - (1985) Boring (2008) Refreshing when the mood is right

15: ONE OF THE LIVING – TINA TURNER - She kills me with her soulful vocals as much as she did then. I love this song. 10x more than "We Don't Need Another Hero".

14: SLEEPING BAG – ZZ TOP - (1985) Only liked the beat (2008) I like composition more than the song itself as well as just the beat.

13: ELECTION DAY - ARCADIA - (1985) Grace Jones was one of the hottest names in the entertainmant world at the time. I loved her spoken verse. I kinda liked it because it was so Duran Duran (2008) An Absolute Classic!!

12: YOU ARE MY LADY – FREDDIE JACKSON -Ageless ballad in my eyes and ears! I could sing this song without missing a beat!

11: BE NEAR ME - ABC -(1985) One of the first "Pop" records that I absolutely loved like Pecan Pie! Only heard the "Munich Mix" one time and very much impressed. Too bad I could not afford to buy the 12" record. (2008) The single version to me is bland for some reason and the disco club mix is superb!

10: PART TIME LOVER – STEVIE WONDER -(1985) Sounded too much like "Maneater" and one radio station actually mashed that together. It was ridiculous but somewhat interesting. (2008) I love the lyrics and composition of the song is OK.


9: WHO’S ZOOMIN’ WHO – ARETHA FRANKLIN - (1985) Casey Kasem said it was a #1 Dance hit. I have always loved the "Club mix", whoever mixed this did an outstanding job! (2008) This is on my Ipod, I paid for this hot "Radio Edit Club Mix" at Itunes, thank you..And I bought the 45 back in 85' as well.


8: MIAMI VICE THEME – JAN HAMMER - Great instrumental, I like it the same as I did then.

7: HEAD OVER HEELS – TEARS FOR FEARS - (1985) Not too bad, not as good as their first two US hits. (2008) I still find it boring

6: LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME – THE THOMPSON TWINS -(1985) They performed this on "Soul Train" and then they performed a second number. I couldn't get the title of the song, but I was impressed with it. I remember the lines "love is all we need". I heard it again "King For A Day" when it debuted at #40. Now I liked that a little better, (2008) I love this song to death! But the UK version is booty (not licious, either). It reeks.

5: NEVER - HEART - Loved it then and I love it now! This is better than "These Dreams" and it finished higher within the Top ten for the year of 1986 as a matter of fact.

4: BROKEN WINGS – MR. MISTER - (1985) I didn't like the video clip for this record, but I loved the song. (2008) Still a classic pop tune, so hot even RL sang on 2Pac's rap song "Until The End Of Time" using this sample.

3: SEPARATE LIVES (LOVE THEME FROM “WHITE KNIGHTS”) – PHIL COLLINS AND MARILYN MARTIN - I love the song especially the lyrics.
2: YOU BELONG TO THE CITY – GLENN FREY (1985) Like a breath of fresh air! My P.E. instructor from the 6th grade asked me if I like this song on occasions and I said "yes" without much enthusiasm. (2008) Still sounds as good as it did then!

1: WE BUILT THIS CITY - STARSHIP -(1985) I heard this fourth grade when I was in sixth grade sing this song before it made the Top 40. I was thinking 'you like this song'? It was during recess. I saw it on MTV as a "Sneak Preview" clip and thought nothing of it. This had to grow on me after radio just played the devil out of it. (2008) I enjoy it still but this won't be going on my Ipod anytime soon!!

Well that's all I gotta say for now. See ya next time. Toodles!!!
