30for30: Jukebox Memories #29

In just 87 days, the LHS Class of 1989 will celebrate its 30th high school reunion (on Saturday, March 30, 2019 at 7pm in the back room of the infamous Downtown Lounge) ... which is why I've been posting special TOP 30 lists.

This month ... it's all about the top 30 jukebox memories (see rules below) -- relevant because it was *our* class who got a jukebox installed in the cafeteria (along with Coke machines and one of those electronic message boards).

Continuing the countdown at #29 (see link below):  Whitesnake's #1 hit from the Billboard Top 100 chart as of late 1987:  'Here I Go Again'.  PS -- a quick look through our yearbook shows that a large percentage of girls (and a handful of guys) were apparently imitating David Coverdale when it came to hairstyles!


RULES FOR THIS TOP 30 LIST:  Songs are as remembered from when they were being played loudly in the cafeteria, making us all raise our voices at mealtimes in order to hear each other.  All memories are believed to be accurate and will be fact checked on the interwebs to make sure that featured songs were actually released prior to June of 1989 (but since these memories are thirty years old, there is not a guarantee of 100% accuracy.)  Also note that a
n appearance on this list is not necessarily an endorsement of the song or the artist.  And if anyone out there wants to make a mixtape that we can all make copies of at the reunion, now is the time to start working on that task.
