Coming up, we’re going to go behind the Top 10 songs of this same week from the year 1984. But we’re not stopping there. After we count them down, we’re re-ranking them according to all-time streams and views, to find out which one has left the biggest mark on history. This time around we’ve got some of the greatest hits from the 80s all duking it out for that coveted #1 spot. But who will be the champion? Will it be Van Halen, Prince? Genesis, or maybe a rookie new wave band, a glam metal favorite, or even a one-hit wonder? It’s a nostalgic trip back in time.

It’s time for another edition of our show the Hit Song Redux where we travel back to a week in the golden era of the rock and roll and re-rank the top 10 songs of THAT SPECIFIC week based on how much the world has listened to them since THEIR PEAK POSITION ON THE BILLBOARD HOT 100. As always, we’re including artist interviews, in-depth commentary, as well as your stories and dedications. Just to clarify, this is not my personal top 10. It’s the actual top 10 from this exact week almost 40 years ago. First, we count them down as they were, then and then we run them through a recalibration process to find out the real top 10 based on all-time streams and views.

And before we get started though I want to give a shout-out to my hero, the great Casey Kasem, and his program the American Top 40 countdown. We do this show in honor of his memory.
