DEF: Cher “Just Like Jesse James”
After nearly a decade without appearing on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, in the last two years of the 1980s, California-born singer Cher hit the Top 10 four times. On this date in 1989, as the decade was coming to a close, the fourth of those singles — “Just Like Jesse James” — was in the midst of a four-week run at a peak position of number 8. Today, “Just Like Jesse James” by Cher is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
