[johnnywest]

I was getting ready to start my senior year of high school when this chart came out.

[Acid Eyes]

I wasn't born for another month and a half.

[dth1971]

"Forget Me Not" by Bad English was #45 for that week but missed hitting the Top 40 (while it reached #38 on R&R).

Notice how you don't see Janet Jackson's 'Miss You Much' on there, but she's lurking.lol Would hit #1 about 5 weeks later.

[tico]

Ahh, 1989...when music was still good.

YES!!!

[dth1971]

I bet the duet by Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston called "It Isn't, It Wasn't, It Ain't Never Gonna Be" was off the Billboard Hot 100 chart by that time even though it almost made the Top 40 peeking at #41 and even missed hiting the Top 40 of the R&R chart.

[areyoureadytojump]

Is that Cyndi Lauper at #100?

[WotUNeed]

areyoureadytojump said:

No. The artist is called 1927. They're an Australian band who should have been more successful than they were. "That's When I Think of You" comes from their 1989 album ...ish.

[Hervard]

^Yeah, they were about as obscure as you can get. That was their only song, and this week was their only week on the chart. That was the first time in ages that a song debuted at #100 and fell out the following week.

Lauper did, however, make an appearance on the chart, at #62 with "My First Night Without You". I like it and felt it was an underrated song.
