Every Saturday I make a playlist of the Top 20 Countdown from this week in 1985.
This week Madonna is still on top, Chicago once again brings the ick and people (including me) love it, and Billy Ocean returns, restoring balance the chart universe.

This week REO Speedwagon holds #1, Madonna and Phil Collins make big moves, and Survivor gets "High On You," proving that sensitive macho will never die (it only gets louder).

This week “Jungle Love” exits the Top 20, presumably because white people, George Michael hangs onto #1, and the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack gets some deserved love.

This week the top 5 spots may get the emotions flowing but the real news is the motherf***ing Time entering the charts at #20 with motherf***ing "Jungle Love"

This week, Careless Whisper hits #1, New Edition returns, and a trio of California’s “best” dominate the middle in what makes for playlist with some massive vibes

This week Foreigner’s clock is ticking because REO Speedwagon actually knows what love is, and a solo David Lee Roth has entered the chat.
Skiddely.
Diddely.
Bop.

This week Madonna takes a tumble down to #7, but it's all love with Foreigner taking the top spot and Billy Ocean, Wham, and more singing about our messiest emotion.

This week Madonna is, you guessed it, still on top. But Foreigner search for the meaning of love is making moves, with Chicago creeping up behind.

Every Saturday I'll be sharing the Top 20 Countdown from this week in 1985. Why 1985? Because I did 1984 last year and 1985 > 1986.
Besides kicking off the year with Madonna on top, this week 40 years ago was lousy with generational hits.

By huge margin my favorite musical moment of last year wasn't something new, it was hearing this version of "Fat Old Sun" for the first time of of David Gilmour's Luck and Strange Concerts album.
Dig it.

Fees are too high! The way to get them lower is to create healthier competitive dynamics in the marketplace. That requires addressing antitrust concerns but also good fee disclosure provisions (like what’s contained in the Resale Act.

Just bought a ticket to a show here in March and paid 30% in service fees.
This is not sustainable
Thoughts @future_of_music ?

The hipsters were right about mocking people who only listen to songs instead of albums

To avoid burying the lede, the show is going away for a good long while.
But we couldn't turn the lights off without hipping you to some remarkable albums we heard this year.
Take care out there. You deserve it.
