I remember listening to Casey Kasem to monitor Nightbird success and Christine's new song and he commented how rare it was to have members of a group have solo records on the same top 40.. Its happened before and he mentioned the times. This was early February 1984.
Off topic, but I remember Casey reporting about the members of Genesis being in the Top 40 at the same time as the group. I believe Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, and Mike Rutherford (as Mike and the Mechanics) all had a hit in the Top 40 the same time as Genesis did, so that was a really big deal, even though Gabriel wasn't a member of the group at the time. Can you imagine Stevie, Chris, Lindsey, and Fleetwood Mac all having a Top 40 hit at the same time?
