Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
There are a couple cuts from that album which are pretty good. Never released as singles as far as I can tell. But this is the only album if theirs I have or have any interest in.

There really wasn't much of a guess. Summer of 1983 is only 1 choice.

Dude
True but this is its last week. If they'd used the next countdown (sometimes they jump ahead 5 days instead of back 2 for whatever reason) it woulda been "Sweet Dreams Are Made Of Cheese (Who Had Mind To Diss A Brie)"
CORRECT ORDER
Irene Cara "Flashdance" #22
Police "Every Breath You Take" #1
Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" #2
Michael Sambello "Maniac" #3
Billy Joel "Tell Her About It" #12 alan hunter said it peaked at #3?!
Bonnie Tyler "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" #20
green: my candidates
white: on my list and in the top 40
