Comments:
By 1985, Jefferson Airplane had become Starship and had undergone many personnel changes with Grace Slick and Mickey Kantor being the only two remaining members from the 1960's Airplane days. "We Built This City" was much more pop oriented then anything ever done by Jefferson Airplane or Jefferson Starhip, and it showed it's pop strength by landing at #1 for two weeks in November 1985. "We Built This City" would not be the last time that Starship would make it to #1, in the spring of 1986 they would go to #1 for one week with the song, "Sara" and in the spring of 1987 they would make it to #1 for three weeks with "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" from the movie "Mannequin".
