It's time for the top song this week in '89. Here are your clues: Pepsi and Black Jesus. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
1989 was such a great year for music, in my opinion. In the runner-up spot is a song that I don't think sounds like any other song. #80sCountdown (1989) #80smusic
Still one of my favorite debut songs by an artist/group (that wasn't really a debut single) #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
It's time for the top song this week in '89. Here are your clues: The artist's mom found the song, but thought it was trash. But the choreographer liked it, was able to record it, and she is now forever out girl. #80sCountdown (1989)
I insist that "All This Time" is Tiffany's best song. As I am inclined to say, "It's always the ballad." #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
Sheena Easton wants to talk about "The Lover In Me," but she is unaware that it's trapped behind her sugar walls. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
Samantha Fox's "Touch Me (I Want Your Body)" is a much better song than "I Wanna Have Some Fun," but it's the latter that's on the #80sCountdown (1989). I am trying to remember if anyone in high school had a crush on her. I don't seem to remember her being popular. #80sMusic
Rick Astley was not, as many want to say, a one-hit wonder. While "She Wants To Dance" isn't as well known as "Never Gonna Give You Up," it's "Cry For Help" that is his best single. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
When I first the little rapid fire part of "The Way You Love Me," I was like, "Go off, Karyn White!" It was a fun song then and still is now. Karyn had quite a few 🔥 songs.

"Dial My Heart" by the Boys is a lost gem of the late 80s. It's still -- whatever the kids are calling it today. A bop? It's a great example of why I like new jack swing. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
A testament to how chart rules and turnover were so different back in the 80s. Mike + the Mechanics "The Living Years" will top the chart the week before "Eternal Flame," which was back at No. 40. Turnover nowadays seems nonexistent #80sMusic #80sCountdown (1989)
In a career of hits, I've always thought "My Heart Can't Tell You No" was Rod Stewart's best. I can *feel* what he's singing. He sang the hell outta this song. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
Milli Vanilli was lipsyching for their life long before RuPaul made it a thing. #80sCountdown (1989) #80Music
Bobby Brown's "Don't Be Cruel" album was hit after hit after hit. He's one of a bunch of artists in this late-80s period that had massively high expectations for their second albums. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
My absolute favorite Anita Baker song is "Just Because." It gets lost in her catalog of hits, but the lyrics speak to me. Fitting that it's on this week's Valentine's edition of the #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
We don't get a lot of Kylie Minogue on the U.S. countdowns. Her first release was a Stock Aitken Waterman masterpiece and is probably why I have been a fan all these many years. "It's No Secret" is an underrated gem. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
The start of Joan Jett & The Blackhearts' "Little Liar" sounds eerily similar to "18 and Life" by Skid Row. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
1989 had a long string of incredible chart toppers. In a little less than two months, "Eternal Flame" by the Bangles will be there. (And then a personal fave follows the week after that). #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
In the runner-up spot this week in '87 was "So Emotional" by Whitney Houston. I have a soft spot for this song because the music video was shot here in the Lehigh Valley (PA). That said, I prefer the David Morales Mix. #80sCountdown (1987) #80sMusic
The video for George Harrison's "Got My Mind Set On You" was very trippy to me as a preteen. The sax playing squirrel was hilarious, though. #80sCountdown (1987) #80sMusic
It's time for the number one song this week in '89 and the drone overlords are demanding that I give you some sort of clue. So here goes: If something happened in the previous 50 years, it was mentioned in this song. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
"I Don't Know Much" by Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville is one of those songs that you sing as a pre-adult, but don't really, fully understand until you're older. It just hits totally different when you have your person. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
An anthem. An unparalleled late 80s classic.
"Back To Life" by Soul II Soul.

Seeing Taylor Dayne in concert last month was an absolute joy. Every song in her set was an h-i-t. Such a great time. "With Every Beat Of My Heart" is still hot. #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
Longtime followers know that I still love the music of Milli Vanilli. In an alternate universe the entire "scandal" was handled much better. I guess we have to "Blame It On The Rain." #80sCountdown (1989) #80sMusic
"Pump Up The Jam" is another song that had maybe ten words in the entire song, but it was and is 🔥
