This week on the Stuck in the ’80s Podcast, Chuck "Mr. Mayor" Coverly returns to join Spearsy for another installment of Close But No Cigar, our ongoing series celebrating songs that climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 but never quite reached the summit. This episode focuses on more chart near-misses from 1989, featuring music from Bobby Brown, Jody Watley, Madonna and one mystery artist whose chart heartbreak is still worth discussing.
