That is correct.
For the remaining song - He shares the first name with a member of Wham!, and his last name is an anagram of a popular kind of nut - one that is often hickory smoked.

Very good! For the most part, the songs on my list made the Top 40, but there are a few obscure songs, including album cuts, here and there. That was indeed one of them. Where I worked back in early 1993, there was a guy who listened to B96, a rhythmic Top 40 station in Chicago, which is how I know that song (since I don't think U93 ever played it)
2485) I'm generally not a fan of this group, since they're disco (in fact, they had the biggest disco hit of that era). This was the follow-up to that song.
2484) A somewhat sugar-coated way of turning down someone's job application.
2483) The final Top Ten hit for this "physician" from Union City, NJ.
2482) A song of loyalty coming from the perspective of someone who has passed. The song starts out sounding somewhat like "I Get Weak" by Belinda Carlisle, which charted three years prior.
2481) A song that mentions Madonna during one of the years she was most popular.
GOOD LUCK!!

Those were all correct!
Easier clues for the unguessed songs:
2482) The act that sings this song had their first (and biggest hit) in the latter half of 1988. (But remember - this is not that song).
2481) This song was by possibly THE most successful Canadian singer of the 1980s and 1990s.

Both guesses were correct!!
2480) These two R&B artists teamed up for two Top 40 hits in the latter half of the 1980s. This was the second of them.
2479) This song title charted three times in the survey period. The first two times, it was the same song/same artist. The third one, which was the song in question, was a different song altogether (by a different artist)
2478) Something seen on the outside of large apartment buildings.
2477) The lead-off track from an album by a Christian artist who you might say changes your world.
2476) A song with the same subject matter as "Norwegian Wood" by the Beatles.
GOOD LUCK!!

Those are both correct!
2478) The band who sang this had four Top 40 hits between 1998 and 2000. This was the second of those.
2477) Part of my clue refers to the title of said album.
2476) The melody of this song has been compared to "As I Lay Me Down" by Sophie B. Hawkins (the choruses sound similar).

2478. Fastball - Fire Escape? 2477. Michael W. Smith - I Will Be Here for You? 2476. Shawn Colvin - Sunny Came Home? Well, two out of three ain't bad. And the one you got wrong, you did get the artist correct, but the song was the lead-off track, not the first single.

That's what I was looking for!
2475) Where an astronomer might look.
2474) A song that charted not long after some members of the band who sings it were killed in a plane crash.
2473) A very obscure song from a jazz singer whose only Top 40 hit charted in early 1979 and hit the Top Ten. The song in question just missed the Top 40 the following year.
2472) The first Top 40 hit for a man who was once a member of the Steve Miller Band.
2471) A song by the former lead singer of an English band who had one of the biggest albums of 1979. This song made a brief appearance on the R&R chart, but missed the AT40 chart altogether.
GOOD LUCK!!
