The number 5's from 1982Please rate the following out of 10. If you don't know a song, please look it up on Youtube before voting. I'll tot the scores up at the end to see which is Havens favourite #5 of 1982. I'll probably leave it open for a few months (say end of October), to make sure we get everyone's votes.
n.b. Where the single is listed as a double A side, I have gone for the "lead" of the two.

09:Meat Loaf - Dead Ringer For Love 10:Japan - Ghosts 08:Bananarama with Fun Boy Three - Really Saying Something 08:Tight Fit - Fantasy Island 03:Scotland World Cup Squad - We Have A Dream ### 10:Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Wolf 07:Shalamar - A Night To Remember 05:Imagination - Music And Lights 08:Hot Chocolate - It Started With A Kiss 00:Kids From Fame - Hi-Fidelity 09:ABC - All Of My Heart 06:Shalamar - There It Is 07:Dexy's Midnight Runners - Jackie Wilson Said (I'm In Heaven When You Smile) 06:Clannad - Theme From Harry's Game 10:Madness - Our House
###I gave it 1 because i'm Scottish, another 1 for John Gordon Sinclair from Gregory's Girl, 1 because of the line "it's a penalty, 1 because compared to all the other world cup songs this one was slightly sending themselves up.
But I deducted 1 point for BA Robertson , and deducted another 1 for wearing stereotyped tartan so net 3 points.

I'd like to give out even more big scores than I can.
10 Meat Loaf - Dead Ringer For Love 9 Japan - Ghosts 7 Bananarama with Fun Boy Three - Really Saying Something 8 Tight Fit - Fantasy Island 4 Scotland World Cup Squad - We Have A Dream 8 Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Wolf 7 Shalamar - A Night To Remember 6 Imagination - Music And Lights 7 Hot Chocolate - It Started With A Kiss 9 Kids From Fame - Hi-Fidelity 10 ABC - All Of My Heart 5 Shalamar - There It Is 8 Dexy's Midnight Runners - Jackie Wilson Said (I'm In Heaven When You Smile) 6 Clannad - Theme From Harry's Game 9 Madness - Our House
(It's pretty much a foregone conclusion that Duran Duran will win and the Scotland World Cup Squad song will finish last. It got 4 points though for at least making an attempt to be funny. And, by the way, the melody is identical to "My Wish Came True" by Elvis Presley. But when I heard the latter I started singing "I Have A Dream..")
