I randomly clicked on 1984 and scrolled a list of almost uniformly awful songs... were those the weekly #1s?

The Doo-Wop is good toast & coffee music for this rainy morning.

Where's Fonzie when you need him?

Worked for me too in 2.0.0.3, though it did play awful music. When Doves Cry? Really? But I'm sure the target demographic would enjoy the stuff from the '50's and '60's.

wait a minute. John Waite, Lionel Richie, Thompson Twins, Tina Turner ... and you're complaining about When Doves Cry? When Doves Cry is a great song, albeit played out long ago.

It was 1984, dude. Aside from Springsteen and Prince the top 40 was pretty barren in those days.

This is kind of fun. The songs for 1955 are pretty good. As for 1984, what Jon said.

1984 gave us "Time after Time." That's good work. That said, the site hurt my eyes.

That is really damned cool. Thanks for this post. I'm rocking 1950 right now.

I think I'm on 1984. But how can you hate Van Halen, Ray Parker Jr and Springsteen?
