A bridesmaid's podcast!  8 of the 20 songs in this set reached a peak position of #2!   Of course we've got some good #1 songs as well, including one of the most significant #1 hits of the entire rock era, and all because of timing.   Pitbull makes his countdown debut, as does Imagine Dragons.  Some movie themes in there, one a disco smash and another where it's titled as a movie theme but never even made it onto the soundtrack album!  And Stevie.  Cause he's awesome.
Our discovery into the years of rock and roll lands on the year 1991, as we continue our Greatest Years segments.  Listen to the listener's favorite hits from that memorable year.

| Michael Jackson
| Robert Palmer
| Drake
| Air Supply
| Creedence Clearwater Revival
| No Doubt
| Christina Aguilera
An absolute banger of set of 20 songs as you'll ever find as we burrow through the 1600's on our way to the biggest song in Billboard History.  2 of the most famous anti-war protest songs make this cut, one of Michael Jackson's most infectious #1 hits (and my personal favorite), and the debuts of Drake, Lifehouse and Robert Palmer.  Plus the biggest sports anthem of the 90's, a darling 80's duet between 2 70's stars, and another #1 Beatles jam, but who's playing drums?  
Our discovery into the years of rock and roll lands on the year 1978, as we continue our Greatest Years segments.  Disco was dominating led by the legendary Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack, but soooo many other genres were hitting as well.  Listen to the listener's favorite hits from that memorable year.

| M.C. Hammer
| Carpenters
| One Direction

One of the most pleasant, positive happy set of 20 songs in any podcast I've done to date.  So many feel-good hits.  But there is some good Goth Rock and Sexy Rap to give the set some added flavor.  We've got signature hits from 2 boy bands, some Surfin' Music, and what was for a time the greatest song on the country charts of all time.  And debut songs from Jody Watley and Marty Robbins, two stalwarts of their genre.  
Our discovery into the years of rock and roll lands on the year 1959, as we continue our Greatest Years segments.  The first full year of the Hot 100 era, but SO many memorable hits as pointed out by our listeners, even though most of us weren't alive.  Great nostalgia from a time long past.  Listen to the listener's favorite hits from that memorable year.
