I remember purposely listening to hear Chris enter the charts. Casey Kasem mentioned that solo artists from groups have charted together before but this was very rare to have it done twice with different artists.
Edit: Here is a link I found with the chart from February 4, 1984

I remember being so angry that Nightbird didn't do better as a single. And there wasn't a video. I loved that song.
