Phil Collins, Elton John, and Gloria Estefan dominated Adult Contemporary radio back in the 1980s and '90s, yet have disappeared from modern radio. Seemingly, the only time you ever hear them is at the grocery store or your local CVS. This blog remembers the music, the stories and the quirky characters from my days working in Adult Contemporary radio.

Shania Twain "You're Still the One"
They said it would never last. Critics dismissed the relationship between budding country star Shania Twain and her successful producer boyfriend Robert "Mutt" Lange...even after the pair married. And, for 17 years, Twain proved them wrong...the two even wrote "You're Still the One" as a memento of their relationship and how they overcame all the naysayers. All of this crashed to the floor when Shania learned Mutt was having an affair with her best friend. The pair divorced in 2010. Twain told Andy Cohen that if she ever saw her now ex-friend, she'd tell her: "I wish I never met you." Is it possible for his story to get even more bonkers? Yes! Shania bonded with her ex-friend's ex-husband and the two commiserated over being jilted lovers...only to later become lovers. WTF!
