That is indeed correct!
190) This trio was a victim of the dreaded #1 curse! After hitting #1, they never charted again.
189) The follow-up to this man's only solo #1 hit.
188) Third Single Syndrome definitely applied here. This New England R&B group's first two hits made the Top Ten (on R&R), but the third one didn't even touch the Top 30 (maybe the fact that it was a ballad, unlike the first two had something to do with it).
187) The first Top 40 hit for this English quartet has a very distinctive (and catchy) piano intro.
186) This song was the fifth release from this man's third studio album, which was not quite his best singles album, as his second one spawned four Top 30 hits while two of the songs from the third didn't even hit the (Billboard) Top 40. This was the second of those.
GOOD LUCK!!

Well, you got two out of three there.
189) This artist was never part of a group/band.
188) The band's first two hits were dance numbers. Instead of spelling it out, think Ritche Valens.
187) The lead singer of said quartet eventually left to pursue a solo career that was slightly more successful.

All three of those are correct!
185) This was the second hit for this artist and, like the first one, its melody was based on a classical music piece.
184) The third time was a charm for this R&B band from LA, as their third Top 40 hit hit #1 on my chart.
183) The first of two songs (both of which were AC hits) from this musician featuring an artist that we lost last year.
182) The first solo hit from the member of a legendary band who were still active at the time, featuring two members of that very band on back-up vocals.
181) This was the first of two Top Ten hits for this southern California band who were part of the yacht rock craze back in the day between the death of disco and the second British invasion.
GOOD LUCK!!

All four of those were right!
184) The first of this band's three Top 40 hits was a ballad (like the song in question) that performed a remarkable feat on a Billboard year-ender back in the mid-80s.

And so would I, because that is indeed correct!
180) This band had quite a frustrating time on the Hot 100 with one of their early-80s hits. This song was the follow-up to the one that finally fulfilled their wishes.
179) The first two songs by this artist hit #1 even though it was basically the same song (Sam Smith, anyone?). This third song, on the other hand, barely hit the Top Ten.
178) Another dud for an artist whose previous singles all hit #1 since their debut a year before this song.
177) The most successful (R&R) chart hit from a very hot boyband.
176) The only American hit by this English rock band (although it did hit the R&R Top 50 twice).
GOOD LUCK!!

Darn! You just missed getting a clean sweep!
The one you missed was #178. It was by another artist who also happened to have three number ones, then the fourth single "only" hit the Top Five.

That's more like it!
175) Half of this duo had a sibling that was half of another popular duo. This was the last Top Ten hit for either of their duos.
174) This song just barely missed becoming this man's third Top 40 hit, but it did very well on the AC chart, peaking at #2.
173) Another narrow Top 40 miss, from a blues/rock singer who was 17 at the time this song charted. This song's opening had chord progressions identical to "Undercover Angel" by Alan O'Day.
172) A duet with a former member of a popular 70s/80s band that found its wings only on the AC chart.
171) The debut hit for an artist whose songs tend to have an operatic sound.
GOOD LUCK!!
