Haven Combi Retro-Chart W/B 9th July 1989

HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 9th JULY 1989

It’s another week at the top for Edem and Dennis as London Nights extends its margin at number one.




Kirsty MacColl continues to climb with Days, up another six places as it moves up to number two and putting her in contention for her second chart-topper.


The new single from the Pet Shop Boys appears to be struggling a bit, certainly in comparison to their previous singles. Could this be the record to break their 100% record and end their 'imperial phase' on the Retro-Chart?


Danny Wilson match the peak of Mary’s Prayer as The Second Summer of Love climbs to number four as Soul II Soul with Caron Wheeler drop to number five to accommodate these climbers in the Top Five.


Biggest climber is from Michael Jackson as Liberian Girl, the ninth single to be pulled from Bad, jumps a massive 23 places to number 23.


Highest new entry is from Gloria Estefan, now without a credit for the Miami Sound Machine, as Don’t Wanna Lose You enters at number 17.


And here’s this week’s Retro Chart in full….

22nd July 1989

Gloria Estefan (and Miami Sound Machine aka husband Emilio) has her first chart-topper after several near-misses, and it’s a nice old-fashioned mildly-latin-flavoured ballad. I was always partial to the very affable Gloria. Meanwhile, Chaka goes higher with Ain’t Nobody 2nd-time around, and Yello get a 2nd Top 10, Blow Monkeys a 4th.

Simply Red virtually tango into the 20 with A New Flame, and Aswad reggae it in too, while Norman Cook gets an early Top 20 hit of a later bigger version. Highest new entry is for the clips of old songs contained it, rather than the combination of them for the enormously popular Jive Bunny “single”. Ah well, at least it introduced 50’s oldies to kids, so shouldn’t grumble. Much more impressive, though is Shakespear’s Sister at 26. Didn’t even know he had one, much less one who was in Bananarama, but You’re History is a quirky delight. At 43 it’s a debut for The Lightning Seeds, consistently under-rated, and beautifully perfect and melodic pop singles, like Pure, which was. 47, it’s Martika, Toy Soldiers step by stepping into my charts, and rather good too.

Other stuff: Bros get a rare Top 40 hit, Kylie enters at 39, The Cult say Ciao Baby, Inner City shuffle back, Stevie Nicks gets another solo hit, Fine Young cannibals keep hits a coming, Cyndi has her 5-year-run continuing, and Roachford sneaks in at 75. More of note, is Dion at 61, his first street-cred single in 20 years, and his first hit bar a 1976 reissue of The Wanderer, one of his many early-60’s goodies.
