Me either. I took a look at the billboard magazine for that week. The only trace of the song I could find was on the Singles Radio Action list [based on station playlists through Tuesday (12/7/82)]. I listed the stations that had the song in rotation below. The song wasn't on the Rock chart either.

KFYR-AM - Bismarck
WIGY-FM - Bath
WRVQ-FM - Richmond
WANS-FM - Anderson/Greenville
WFLB-AM - Fayetteville
WOKI-FM - Knoxville

Grace Jones
Nipple To The Bottle
Click to expand...
No idea what the heck she's singing about, but it was a top 20 hit in Germany, New Zealand & The Netherlands...

Color and warmth came into your world
It makes me crazy
When you don't get what you want
You scream and you shout
You're still a baby

Don't give me a line
Keep the lid on the bottle this time
I'm still a lady
I won't do it tonight
I won't do it tonight
No way baby

I won't give in and I won't feel guilty
Rant and rave to manipulate me
From the nipple to the bottle
Never satisfied
From the nipple to the bottle
Now the cow must die

This week, "Nipple to the Bottle" was at #6 on the Dance chart and #19 on the R&B chart too. I didn't remember this one, but heard it later down the road. I didn't appriciate her back then. She was so avant-garde.

49: Rush is always a surprise.
57: I am not suprised this did not make the top 40 as it was a sucky version of the song but I heard it everywhere so I am surprised it did not graze the top 40.
61: good song. should have been top 40.
88: again, heard this everywhere. Thought it would have grazed the 40.
100: a surprise. Should have been top 20.
