Today's AT40

February 12, 1983

Halfway through the 7th grade, with the only good thing I remember about it being that I'd finally gotten something interesting in my math class after 3 years straight of 3digit x 2digit multiplication.

Last week's #1 was Toto's Africa, which I contributed to (I still have the 45)
( and on we go... )

• 10: the covers continue with Phil Collins saying You Can't Hurry Love
• 9: The Stray Cats Strut.  oddly, the b-side for their other single of this time (Rock This Town) had You Can't Hurry Love as a b-side.  Another where the video was out months before it finally hit the top 40
• 8: The Clash Rock the Casbah, another video that never stops playing
• 7: Another Country Ballad, Eddie Rabbit with Crystal Gayle, Just You And I
• 6: Hall and Oats's other huge one from H2O, a former #1 still holding on at #6 for 3 weeks, Maneater
• 5: whoa, Toto's Africa drops out of the #1 spot.
• 4: Bob Seger's Shame on the Moon.  meh...
  
• 3: Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing, a song I really remain tired of.
• 2:Patty Austin and James Ingraham duet with Baby Come to Me, another 70s cheesy ballad hangover
  
  but the new Number 1...

• 1: Men at Work, with Down Under
  
  yes: I own that 45, too!
  

g'nite all.  I'm doing service pack updates on this pc...here's hoping it comes back to life after that...
