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...

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.

To Aaron:

Thank you for the timeline/explanation!

It's tricky to try to remember when metrics changed on the various charts...

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.

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".
