WYNN - Forgotten Jukebox - MM-01

Written by

This is a real gem in the jukebox.  This song was a big hit, fans loved it and it made history.  This song went #6 on the charts, nothing earth-shattering there, but there's another side to this song.  It was NOT the single that they wanted to release. The actual hit single was a song no one knows called, That's The Plan.  But a disc jockey in Dallas started playing this song instead, and that was the one that caught on. Very strange scenario.  It also marked the first time in over 40 years a new artist, on an independent label (VFR) scored a top ten hit.  That matches the strangeness or uniqueness of this song and video in general.  It was a bit off beat, as was his image.  This is the only song he ever really charted, but it was a big song, then it faded away as many do. I loved this song, and it was fun to play and for a year or two I played it a bunch here at WQMX.   This has a story and a history and that's why it's in the Forgotten Jukebox.
