Henry has made Todd Rundgren an unavoidable force of Biggest Fan and today he helps his idol become the most appearing artist in this game, although he still tied with Jeff Tweedy (through both Uncle Tupelo and Wilco) and Prince. This is the first appearance of Rundgren out of Utopia though. The song is bubblin’ under on AM.

Candyman has a crush on Jennifer Paige, or is it the other way around? Whatever the case, the critics loved her and her song too, but if it is only for a position of #7916 is it really a crush?
418. Jennifer Paige - Crush
Year: 1998
Album: Jennifer Paige
Biggest Fan: candyman (#173)

Same as Gillingham, the name and title didn't ring a bell, but the song is turned out to be easily recognizable. Got a lot of airplay in the day, although I never thought about it much. It's kind of fun pop in a specific mold of its time.
After John Lennon Paul McCartney becomes the second Beatle to get a solo song in Biggest Fan. Frezzie went with the title track of a lesser-known album.
419. Paul McCartney - Driving Rain : 4 (I don't give a lot of ratings below 5 so it's a surprise McCartney would get one)

Well, there are McCartney songs I dislike more, including some actual hits, but there are many more songs of his that I like more than Driving Rain, to say the least.

M24 bring us another big song today, with over 300.000.000 streams on Spotify alone. In contrast to most hits we get in this game this isn’t some pop, but an example of the always popular on AM nu-metal genre. It ranks on AM at #6534.
Slipknot – Wait and Bleed: 6
Screaming and yelling! We don't get this type of music a lot here. To be fair, I still struggle to take these roaring singers seriously.

One of the more natural sounding prog songs of the era, earning it's grand pay-off by carefully working up to it. A satisfying song.
