Do you remember the 1989 song by Adrian Belew called "Oh Daddy"? It didn't make the Top 40 but got airplay on then Top 40 WYTZ Z-95 Chicago.

Adrian Belew is an underappreciated talent. This is a fun song. The video-watching public probably remembers it well as I believe it was an MTV smash.

The video got a lot of airplay on VH-1. And my Top 40 station used to play it. I have the cassette single somewhere. His daughter sings backup.

A year later, Adrian Belew had another chart failure called "Pretty Pink Rose".

Yeah, I definitely remember this. I only heard it when Z95 did their Chicago Top 30 countdown, on which it peaked at #10.
This song was OK.

I remember this one, too. It should've made the top 40.
