Hello everyone! This is hch, here to ask this question: Did you ever wonder what was playing on the radio or what song was a big hit when a classic show was originally on the air?
Well, recently, I had been working on lists of songs that topped the Billboard charts when the shows originally aired. I have finished the song listing of your favorite show and mine "The Facts of Life". Some of the stuff on these list will bound to amaze you and have you thinking "Wow! I never knew that!" The songs featured are the Soul and Pop hits of the era, so it's a little something for everybody (the MTV crowd and the BET crowd). I will post this list in three parts: The Eastland Years, The Edna's Edibles years and the Over Our Heads era.
Right now, we have the hit songs you might have heard when the girls were at Eastland from 1979 to 1983. I hopw you will enjoy this look back in music and TV history:
