Coming up, it’s the latest edition of our program the Hit Song Redux. In this show, we go behind the Top 10 songs from this very same week 40 years ago in September of 1983! But counting them down isn’t enough. After we reach #1, we re-rank them according to all-time streams and views… to see what the real #1 hit is. Today we’ve got a massive lineup in store, with some of the most iconic tracks the 80s have to offer. But who will claim the top spot? Could it be The Police, a Jim Steinman special, Maybe Def Leppard or ZZ Top or Bonnie Tyler, or even maybe a one-hit wonder, or the big movie soundtrack hit of that moment? Stick around to find out and make your guess in the comments. It’s all happening… NEXT on the Professor of Rock.

Hey Music Junkies Professor of Rock Always here to celebrate the greatest artists and the greatest songs of all time. if you remember listening to Casey Kasem count them down every week on the American Top 40 Willing your favorite songs up the charts You’ll dig this channel of pure musical nostalgia. Make sure to subscribe below right now to be a part of our music history daily straight from the artists. And to become an honorary producer on our Patreon, click on the link in the description.
So, 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 rock 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 comments. So to be certain: this is not my personal top 10. It’s the actual top 10 from this exact week in 1983. First, we count them down as they were, and then we run them through our recalibration process based on streaming, radio play, and views to find out the real top 10. If you have any guesses on who #1 will be, put them in the comments now, and we’ll see if you’re right when we get there.
As we get going here, I have to give a shout-out to my hero, the incomparable Casey Kasem, and his program the American Top 40 Countdown. This show is a tribute to him.
So, let’s talk pop culture for a minute… movies, TV, the whole bit. Let’s head back to 1983 in that nostalgia time machine. So if you wanted to see a movie, and if it was still playing in your town, Return of the Jedi for, I don’t know, the 10th time. Released earlier that summer in May, FOR ALL WE KNEW, this was the end of Star Wars. So you had to make it count. Maybe it should’ve been the end… ha ah Or if you wanted to mix things up, you could also see Tom Cruise in Risky Business or Michael Keaton in Mr. Mom. Two iconic 80s actors right there.
If you turned on the boob tube and you could watch episodes of The A-Team, Star Search… or how about Friday Night Night Videos? And of course, if you were a kid, there was no sleeping in on Saturdays. The cartoons started early. Popular shows included He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Alvin and the Chipmunks, and since we already mentioned the A-Team, why not… the Mister T cartoon was playing as well! I pity the fool who slept in on Saturday mornings. Okay, okay, with that nostalgia overload complete, let’s get into this thing...

One of my fave songs from 1983 is "99 Luftballoons" by Nena. I always loved the German version of this song more than it's English counterpart. The music is the same, but the lyrics are so different. I have loved going to karaoke, waiting until everyone in the place is wasted, then pulling up the English version lyrics as I sing the German version. LOL! The looks on the drunker patrons are priceless!!! I have also done this with Falco's "Der Kommissar" using After the Fire's lyrics on the screen. SO MUCH FUN for me anyway...LOL!

Having 4 older brothers, I was influenced by the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, and early 90’s. I graduated high school in 87. Each decade has different flavors to me. The 80’s are the most nostalgic for me. I’m able to tie specific firsts and memories to particular songs, down to the weather at the time. The only genres I didn’t record or buy were disco or rap. ✌️

I remember 'Sweet Dreams' being huge and Eurythmics were going to be on SNL. The whole schtick was Annie's bright orange buzz cut, then the band came out and she had on an Elvis wig with his 70's sideburns and performed like that. I think the host even mentioned how crazy she looked. I have that memory from when I was 9 and I doubt I will ever forget.

The 70s and 80s was arguably the greatest time to grow up with regards to music and movies. Technology was making access undeniably easier for everyone, but there was still a relatively limited scope of available material to consume (albeit with a fair bit of corporate gate-keeping dictating what got pushed and what got buried as well). Movies in particular stayed in theaters longer as there was no major push to get them thrown onto high priced cable channels like Showtime and HBO. But music got a lot of time to breathe as well and while radio stations still catered to specific genres, every town had a top-40 station that cobbled everything together into a fascinating stew of sound pouring out of your stereo speakers each day.

I’ll never forget hearing Pyromania - Photograph for the first time on Walkman headphones at the school bus stop. It was taped from the radio. 😂 I was a bit upset that it wasn’t as hard as hard as High N Dry, but quickly got over it when I got the album for my birthday. Rock Of Ages was a MILESTONE song. SO much better than 99.6 percent of the new stuff out today..!

At boarding school in Australia (1979-1983) my weekends were always occupied with Casey’s US Top 40, which was followed by the Australian Top 40. I kept detailed lists comparing the two, my tape recorder at the ready to make my own cassettes. Prior to high school, the music in the house was primarily Elvis and old country (Jim Reeves, Patsy Cline). I didn’t even know who the Beatles were until “Stars on 45” came out with their “Beatles Medley” in 1981. Almost a decade after they split. It’d still be several more years before I got immersed into Led Zeppelin… hated them at first. Gary Numan and synth music preoccupied my interests at first… still does with Vangelis. The 80s was definitely an awakening time for me and music. A lot of digging into the 70s thereafter with Zep, Yes, Stones, Bowie and so many more. It was the single best thing about school. The same music still plays; there’s virtually nothing worth listening to today.

Jim Steinman, 1983 was a great year for him. Another of his songs penned for Meat Loaf was re/released a little later in November 1983. The song “Read Em and Weep” , this time recorded by Barry Manilow shot to #1 on Billboards Adult Contemporary Chart and reached #18 on the Hot 100 early in 84. Another success for Steinman; the song followed the recipe of starting fairly low key and finishing with an intense and dramatic end. Mr Manilow shared in that style of writing and performing within his own songs, a factor that Im sure helped the success song. Maybe @ProfessorofRock could do a complete story on the song in the future. Thank You for this top 10!

My older sister became a huge Air Supply fan when their first album, One That You Love, came out. I live in SF and I remember as a kid heading down with her on the bus in 1981 to a record store in the Haight to buy that album, because Air Supply was there autographing it for those who bought one. There was a super long line to get up to the little table where they were sitting at and signing the records. When we finally made it to the table they were very nice and smiling and friendly. As far as I know my sister still has that signed album somewhere with her now. Air Supply is a forgotten 80s classic band with a ton of hits. Thanks for reminding me about their greatness, Professor.

I absolutely love your enthusiasm for Jim Steinman. It's not the first time I told you that. Every chance you get, every time you talk about a song he wrote and/or produced, you present Jim as the Gothic genius that he was, the brooding miscreant who invented the power ballad and made theatrical masterpiece after masterpiece. Not many wrote songs like he did back in the day (Bruce Springsteen certainly), no one has written like that in decades. Thank you for always getting his name out there, Adam.

They used to get the new Billboard magazine each week in my high school library and the librarian that was in charge would always put it aside for me. I would look at the charts religiously and of course, listen to Casey’s top 40 show and his Americas Top 10 on TV. Man, I wouldn’t change those memories for anything.

In 1983 I was a DJ, writing for & producing the top afternoon drive radio show in Detroit on WABX .The PD was legendary programmer Paul Christie, who programmed stations in LA, NY & elsewhere. Needless to say, I heard all these songs for the first time by playing them on the air! My sister came back with a bunch of tapes from Germany. I carted up a bunch of songs, and soon we were planning Nena's '99 Luftballons' and Falco's 'Der Kommisar'! On the weekends I played Casey Casem's Countdown on WTWR. Great tome to be in radio.

"Sharp Dressed Man" didn't even break the Top 40? Wow. That said, I've always said that if the "Show Me What You Got!" heads from Rick & Morty showed up in real life, ZZ Top would be Earth's best entry. They might not be my favorite band, but they espouse absolutely everything that makes rock and roll music great.

0:00: 🎵 In this episode of Hit Song Redux, the top 10 songs from mid-September 1983 are counted down and then re-ranked based on all-time streams and views. 4:58: 🎵 Jeffrey Downs from the Buggles, John Wetton, and Carl Palmer formed a band and quickly wrote the opening track 'Don't Cry' for their album. 9:59: 🎵 The success of the song 'Taco's Cover' made Irwin Berlin the oldest living songwriter to score a single in the top ten of the Hot 100. 13:38: 🎶 The video discusses funny incidents related to songs played at weddings. 18:04: 🎶 Bonnie Tyler's vocals on Jim Steinman's 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' became a theatrical hit in 1983. 22:44: 🎶 Billy Joel's song 'Tell Her About It' was inspired by his relationship with Christy Brinkley and his drummer, Liberty DeVito, provides insight into the track. 26:58: 🎶 This video discusses three top-tier tracks that didn't receive much recognition in the past.

No, I've got a tie between two albums that were a portent of the chaos that was to come - Metallica's "Kill 'em All" and SLAYER's "Show No Mercy"! 🤘 Turn it up until your ears bleed!!!

What I love most about this series is that most "Top ____ " lists are only the top 10 or so of that year or maybe month. Within that time are so many HUGE songs that many of us played and enjoyed even more than those songs that go overlooked by these lists. Most people looking into this era to get a feel for the music will only scratch the surface and completely miss out on most of what we really listened to back then. There is so much music that came out of just 1983 alone that it would take so many hours to try to cover it all. This series brings out the MANY huge hits that everyone else ignores and maybe has no clue of. The honorable mention type entries are yet another example of this. I mean that ZZ Top album `Eliminator' was massive back then and yet is rarely ever noticed by anyone covering this period, and that's probably not even 1% of this sort of thing. As someone that was class of `84 I feel I was born at the perfect time and so fortunate to have lived through these years at the age I was. I am VERY blessed indeed.

I had the coolest bus driver during high school. When we had food fights on the bus and we would aim for the driver (Alby) bald spot, every time kids got the the spot he would join in and throw the food back. When he arrived at school to drop us off he would ge t off and play football with the kids. He was in his late 70's early 80's, always laughing never taking life seriously. The whole school knew of him and some would catch our bus just to experience what it was like. We all loved Alby, he always spent time to talk to the kids, and be there to be a supportive ear when he saw anyone had a bad day.

When I hear that song, I immediately get thrown back in time to that funny scene in the movie.
