I miss the days of WKTU. They often played a lot of the cooler remixes and sometimes they brought out the extended 12 inches on some shoes. Seems these days the idea of a dance type station is lost. The peak years of WKTU was from 1996 to about 2003. After that they started adding the more pop related releases and that was that. I know a few boards that try to recreate those fantastic playlists from that era! |

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

I'm sure the high airplay peak in Billboard was
completely driven by Urban radio spins. The song peaked at #30 on the Radio & Records CHR/Pop chart, although it did manage a #12 peak on the Billboard Rhythmic chart. |

To Aaron:
I seem to recall at that point in time the Hot 100 Airplay chart was compiled from only Mainstream Top-40, Adult Top-40, & Rhythmic Top-40 airplay; R&B (Urban) airplay was not utilized for this chart. Could you, or maybe Paul Haney, correct me if I am wrong? The metrics changed often on those charts... Andy Edited by AndrewChouffi |

Yes, I believe this song is one of the first ones to benefit from additional
formats being added to the airplay panel. Paul stated in another thread that R&B, country, rock, and “many other formats” were added on December 5, 1998. The Deborah Cox song came out in September 1998, so the changes would take effect only a couple months later and probably when it was reaching its 14-week run at #1 on urban radio. |

Thank you for the timeline/explanation! It's tricky to try to remember when metrics changed on the various charts... Andy |

Well I'll be! They're two dance radio edits. After giving a quick listen to my copy on TM's GoldDisc 4809N the intro sounds different than the dance mix I heard on the radio. I don't see anything listed as "hex hector retro future radio mix" in Discogs, however. They're several promo CD singles listed and one features a "Dance Radio Mix" and another lists "Fast Mix". I don't own either so I can't say if they are different. Edited by prisdeej |

The Retro-Future mix and edit are for the song "It's Over
Now", not "Nobody's Supposed to Be Here". There is also a Club 69 Radio edit of "NStbH". Edited by Kiefer2 |
