I didn't know you had commercials on these AT10 videos! I'm gonna have to dig through these now! Got this one on a search for WNEW on YT!!!! Real interesting to see these great ads (love the 5200 ad), and I didn't know WNEW was still referring to themselves as The Choice as late as '83!
This is great! This is one of my two or three favorite weeks ever for pop music (check out the whole Top 40 for the week -- many more songs like these). Thanks for posting.
What's so striking about this is that this is just the top 10 for ONE week in 1983, yet all of those songs are STILL classic songs today! I bet nobody will even remember this weeks number 1 song twenty years from now, let alone the rest of the top 10 today. It just shows you the sorry state of music today compared to the 80's.

I was born in 84 so sadly didn't get to listen to AT40 in the 80's. But I'm catching up every week. NO ONE can beat Casey Kasem!!!

You're not kidding. The 70s and 80s were great years for music. I have a feeling that there will be lots of remakes in the near future.

true. unfortunately today record companies just want quick hits. they used to develop artists who wrote songs and performed.

I agree with that, today's music today doesn't mean anything. The best music era in the history always will be the 80s.
