Freddy was at the peak of his popularity around this time, while the others were a little old hat.

I thought Doctor Casino was at least somewhat aware of pop in 1991:Is there a name for that genre of turn-of-the-90s pop-rock with the positive vibes, huge guitar leads, and gated drums?

he was saying upthread that he didn't recognise a lot of the songs, is the only reason I said it
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 7 May 2012 20:23 (eleven years ago) link
Kylie didn't enter back into the US charts until 2001. Though I was under impression that her only song that charted in the 80's was Locomotion but "I Should Be So Lucky" and "It's No Secret" apparently did as well.
