Soloing in Top 40?

How the fuck does a song with two 45 second piano jazz solos get to #1 on the radio?

are you autistic?

Because it was soft rock that was huge on adult contemporary radio play and crossed over into the mainstream because it was so catchy.

Love Hornsby though.

oh come on

this is cheesy ass cornball pop

it's good though, but it's not a miracle how it got popular

>are you autistic?

probably a little. i mean i listen to some prog and library music.

>but it's not a miracle how it got popular

People used to not fuckwits with no brain. We'll never have a bohemian rhapsody for instance on the radio again

man, i've had a rough night and i hate the fuckin eagles, man!

radios just skipped to the good part

b-but the soloing IS the good part

Because they sampled Tupac

The general public was more musically literate in the '80s.

I promised myself I would not get triggered by Sup Forums today....

well the grateful dead DID get their only radio hit then

Is there any other song worth listening to other than The Way It Is?
