It's where the songs haven't moved from the previous week. Actually, this would be the third week in a row that the Top 5 songs hadn't budged.

#5 REO Speedwagon-'Take It On The Run'

These Champaign, Illinois natives got there name from a 1911 firetruck. They formed in 1972, but never had any success on the charts until 1980 when lightning-striked and they hit number one with 'Keep On Loving You.

This week's top five had the 'King of Pop,' the title song from one of the big movies of 1983, some new wave and a group from Australia. A little something for everybody was spinning on your radio and on the Billboard chart.

A five time Grammy Winner, a six week number one song and a song that would jump FIFTEEN spots to break into the top five.

This weeks' number one could actually be the theme song for this group who holds the top spot.

Originally the band was named Jefferson Airplane and formed out of the San Francisco, Ca area. Members of the group, at this time in 1967, included: Marty Balin & Grace Slick on vocals, Paul Kantner, Jack Kaukonen and  Jack Cassidy. Two of their biggest hits from the "Summer of Love" were "Somebody To Love" and "White Rabbit.

The Beatles had made their first U.S. appearance barely two months before and "Beatlemania" was sweeping the nation.

Welcome back to the beginning of the work week. Yes, Monday. It's probably the longest and toughest day of the week, but the good news is that it's time to check in with the #1 song this week in 1980.

The top five songs on the chart this week had some pretty strong contenders. Three of them would, at some point, would hit number one.

I remember playing this song when it was brand new, but I honestly forgot the staying power it had at the time. When this week's #1 hit the radio, every 4 out of 5 calls wanted to hear this song, even if it just played 3 minutes ago,

But before we get to this week's #1, let run down the other 4 songs inside the top five for the week.

As the first full-week of Spring began, the top 5 on the chart had a whole lotta shakin' goin' on in 1979.

The top five on the Billboard Chart this week was jammin'. The O'Jays (I Love Music), Hot Chocolate (You Sexy Thing), Donna Summer (Love To Love You baby) and Barry Manilow (I Write The Songs) were all chasing the #1 spot.

This week's top 5 on the Billboard chart had a more of a dance feel to it, and there are 3 songs that have pretty much gone into obscurity. Remember Technotronic, Jody Watley or Seduction?

Loggins & Messina, Elton John, Billy Paul and Stevie Wonder were all in a good position to head to number one this week on the charts, but the power of one woman would hold them back for the third and final week.

The fitness craze was in full swing with the help of Jane Fonda's successful workout videos and pop music was reflecting the times. Plus with MTV pumping out videos 24/7 you couldn't help but get caught up in the visual aspect of songs you heard on the radio.
