 James Jones asked about the most recent top-40 song 
containing a tempo change. Chicago's "Stay the Night"
is the latest I can think of - I believe it's from
their most recent album and it gets plenty of air time.
 The tempo change was drastic enough for some (bb-brained)
DJ's to cut the song off. Or maybe that's not the DJ's fault,
but station policy ( refer to the earlier discussion on song-
blending to get more commercials on the air ).
