Can't update M or Mimi- now says my session has timed out- it's never done that before. lol

[HolidayGuy]

Mediabase has a new site going or something.

Anyhow, Madge was the 13th-most-played act at Overall Adult Contemporary (which includes AC, Hot AC and Rhtyhmic AC), with around 5,600 spins. At Top 40, only No. 158.

Surprisingly, she was No. 111 among most-played acts at Overall Urban radio, with 600+ spins. At Adult Hits (which is listed under "rock"), she was No. 33. At the Classic Hits format, she was in the No. 350-360 range (most of these are acts that preceded 1984).

[HolidayGuy]

RE history, these are her most-played pre-1998 tracks since 3/98 (all formats included, not just on Quick Cut- even including ones that played it once since 3/98):

Into the Groove: 361,211 (3 billion audience)

Borderline: 324,156 (2.71 billion audience)

Crazy For You: 317,098 (2.42 billion audience)

Holiday: 311,696 (2.84 billion audience)

Like a Prayer: 308,669 (2.64 billion audience)

[HolidayGuy]

A note: Where you can check the history of a track by all the plays it had at every station, many of the figures are listed twice- therefore, the total # that shows there for to-date spins is too high for some. However, for others, the to-date spins shown on Quick cut are higher than those shown on a track's history page. Odd- so who knows which figures are accurate.

I haven't found a page that lists acts ranked by # of spins since 1998, unless someone else has...

[iasonas]

Those clear channel rhythmic AC channels play the hell out of her! SO many Madonna songs! WISX in Philadelphia, WDTW in Detroit, WWVA in Atlanta to name a few! I hope they launch more rhythmic ac channels soon like they did in Detorit and Atlanta!

[ryan]

WISX would played Celebration many times this summer. Everytime i was in the car and would put that station on, i would hear celebration playing.

[HolidayGuy]

Philly 106.1 actually didn't play "Celebration" a lot, in in the grand scheme (at least when I was checking the stats). The # of stations playing it a lot were not all that many, as it peaked at around 6m impressions in a week.

Rhythmic AC loves Madge, for sure. She and MJ are the top two most-played recurrent acts.

The Mediabase site is not accessible right now, so can't check anything.

[Skin]

Philly 106.1 actually didn't play "Celebration" a lot, in in the grand scheme (at least when I was checking the stats).

They hardly played it at all. You are right. KTU spun it alot for awhile. WPST gave it a shot but it quickly left its playlist.
