    Lots of special guest stars. Another song that went all the way to #1 as well as a pair of #2 hits. One of the most polarizing songs of the rock era, that darn melting cake. Some crunk music in the early 2000's, and a commentary on the changing times of the Billboard Hot 100. Take a listen, I know you'll enjoy!

    This is a bonus episode to my Billboard Top 3000 Countdown Podcast series. It's a full form long distance dedication, and it chronicles the day I fell in love with American Top 40.

    March 7, 1982.

    Remember that time? Olivia Newton-John and Daryl Hall & John Oates, J. Geils Band and Joan Jett & the Blackhearts were ruling the charts, and a 9-year-old boy was about to discover Casey Kasem, American Top 40, and the world of pop music.

    A power packed group of classic rock, lots of 80's hits, and a group that almost made me wet myself during a concert. Literally wet myself.

    Plus... The worst song of all time. It charted, but it was a BAD song. A famous comedian agrees with me.
