Starting this week, I'll try and keep track of the 80's and 90's countdowns (hell, maybe the 70's ones too, if I ever catch them, or at least whatever year they're doing). And seeing some of the songs at #16-40 really makes me wish they'd get on with it and make that one a full fledged top 40 show. Of course, since Cashbox went under in 1996, it still leaves open what they use for '97, '98, and '99. ![]() The 90's countdown appears to sync up as well. Though, I'd rather they'd just bump each song up a spot and insert the "trespassers," for want of a better term, at the bottom of the countdown, but it's not like anyone's really gonna notice the difference. Not that I really care that much, but it's just curious. I wonder if it's because they don't have the rights to play those songs, or they can't find them, or what. (I think another song got swapped out earlier on, but I don't remember.) And last week, "One for the Mockingbird" by Cutting Crew got replaced by Living In a Box's self-titled song. From the 1986 episode a couple weeks ago, they replaced "Mountains" by Prince at #19 with "I Wanna Be a Cowboy" by Boys Don't Cry. And it seems like this happens once or twice a week. This week's #32 should have been "Your Imagination" by Hall and Oates, but instead, they played "Heat of the Moment" by Asia, which fell off from #38 to #46. It looks like Sirius is guilty of doing some replacement. Cashbox has full archives for all their top 100 charts this week's episode was from 1982, and it matches up perfectly with the Jedition of Cashbox. Well, whaddya know? It looks like they do use Cashbox for their retro countdowns. So if anyone can shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it. But I would think if they did use those charts, they'd be obligated by Billboard to credit where they got them each week, which they don't. I suppose they might be using Hot 100 Airplay, so they don't neglect those songs that didn't have CD singles. And the #15 song was "The End Is the Beginning Is the End" by Smashing Pumpkins, which never came close to the Hot 100. I know the Pulse's countdown doesn't since for last week's episode (1997), "I'll Be Missing You" by Puff Daddy should have been #1 according to Billboard, but was only #8 on the countdown. What I want to know is: where do they get the data for these charts? I'm guessing the Big 40 uses the Hot 100, since their #1's usually seem to match the Hot 100's. Big 80's has The Big 40 Countdown with Nina Blackwood, and The Pulse has the Pulse Music Monitor with Karen Carson, which actually plays the top 15 from a year in the 90's in conjunction with the station's current top 15. Unlike XM, Sirius does the flashback countdowns for their 80's and 90's channels in-house.
