“Mama’s Pearl” would end J5’s string of 4 straight #1 discs. Such bitter sadness, alas! All it would get would be a mere 2 wks at #2, behind the Osmonds’ “One Bad Apple”. #at40

Their next single “Never Can Say Goodbye” would also get stuck at #2, for *3* weeks, behind 3 wks of “Joy To the World”.

Thanks Jezz!

Very solid chart week ends with the proverbial whimper, not bang. Oh well it was the 70s after all! Thanks so much for this feed - I’d be lost without ya!

citizen8448.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Thanks, Jezza! Really helpful reading the songwriters and producers plus videos.

shiuvaun.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Osmonds. Ok.
Anyway… thanks for another great week Jezza!
See you all next countdown!!

…Didn’t ruin the whole #at40, but I’m out early.

Thanks Jezza!

Casey squarely places the blame for the Osmonds' success on the Japanese, which makes sense I guess...

Well, back into the Delorean — time to go back to the 2020s and fight Nazis or something.

Thanks as always, Jezza!

sicburns2.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Loved this song as a little kid, which means it has a 90 percent chance of being awful now. This is in that group.

#AT40. Was a channel-changer for me back in the day, but NO MORE- Rose Garden

Speaking of Dave Edmunds and great background guitar from my last post… check out “Sweet Little Lisa” from Edmunds with the great Albert Lee doing some picking magic on his telecaster.

Crank it, rockheads! This is as good as it gets this week!

sicburns2.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Just try to forget the lyric about a ghost from a wishing well. You can’t.

shiuvaun.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Aw. “If You Could Read My Mind” still gets me every damn time.
This has to be one of the loveliest acoustic guitar melody playing ever recorded.
The guitars basically became background singers.
#AT40

sicburns2.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Right on. I choke up every time I hear it

ollie209.bsky.social•23 hours ago

#AT40. I was a vapid young thing who didn't know how bitter and razor-sharp this Gordon Lightfoot song was...

kat8888.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I love Gordon Lightfoot’s music… every bit of it! #AT40
