The song was a minor hit reaching 14 on the top 40 charts in 1979. It continues with "Hit Me with Your Best Shot" which was written by Eddie Schwartz and recorded by Pat Benatar in 1979, becoming a hit in 1980. It is the first single from her 1980 album Crimes of Passion, and it hit 9 on the Billboard Hot 100. It can be heard at many football games, and is featured on many of Pat Benatar's greatest hits compilations.
Segment 2 contains the songs "Takin' Care of Business" - a song written by Randy Bachman and first recorded by Canadian rock group Bachman-Turner Overdrive for their 1973 album Bachman-Turner Overdrive II. Has been re-recorded by many bands (including a famous cover by The Chipmunks), this song is one of the most recognizable in Classic Rock.

Segment 3 includes the songs "Take on Me" and "Crazy". "Take on Me" is a song by the Norwegian band a-ha. The song is from a-ha's first album, Hunting High and Low, released in 1985. The song "Crazy" is a ballad composed by Willie Nelson and first recorded by Patsy Cline in 1961. It eventually become one of her signature tunes, and its success helped launch Nelson as a performer and songwriter.
Finally, Segment 4 contains "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" which is a rock song written by Randy Bachman and performed by Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) on the album Not Fragile. It was released as a single in 1974 and won the Juno Award for best-selling single of 1976. Segment 4 also has the "ABC song" which is a department 18 original.

Birthday break and music - We get a new version of birthday star called "Birthday Star Extravaganza" that came out in December of 2007 (it came with the Holiday Show dvds). The Studio C puppets are in this version of the new Birthday Show and all versions have the puppets in them. The cast members can either choose between the 2 or 5 minute countdowns for the Birthday Show. At the very end of the Live Show there is a photo session so that the kids can take pictures with Chuck E. The video footage is reused footage from "Hold my Hand" which is from the September 2006 Show. The only difference is that Department 18 added new music for the countdown.
January 2008 Show logo - This Show logo first starts out with a robot (sort of like the Iron Giant) picking up the C and then breaking off the "E" from the billboard then breaking off the little "C" and then the robot places the C, then the letter E, and then the letter C next to each other and after the tv comes on (it says tv on the screen) and when the logo is all done it says "CECTV". The New "CECTV" Show logo is a pretty sweet logo!

I liked this show. The songs were great and the logo for the show was sweet. The intermissions could have been better though. All the songs are good covers, (although "ABC Song" is an original). I think this show was a winner. The only bad thing in this show was the intermissions being to short and to boring. Other than that, great going Department 18!!
