3: Whitney Houston - One Moment In Time
This two week power ballad chart topper of 1988 is Havens #3 for this year (and also a Whitney fave of mine).
It scored an average of 6.92 pts..

At least Cliff didn't finish bottom.
Nevr any question as to what the #1 would be although it's no better than average to me.

2: Belinda Carlisle - Heaven Is A Place On Earth
Now this one took me by surprise, I was expecting to see it much lower down the list, and S'Express much higher. Nevertheless the voting panel of Haven placed it at #2 for the year.
Belindas average was 7.44..

1: Yazz - The Only Way Is Up
I would have been shocked if this hadn't have won! Five weeks at the top in 1988, and Havens choice of #1 for that year.
Yazz scored an average of 7.64!

As much as I'd like to, I don't have the time to turn them around any quicker I'm afraid. Plus the votes seem to come in pretty regular throughout the month, so if it was any quicker someone might miss out on voting. Fair enough.

Thanks everyone, and 1987 coming up shortly! Thanks very much Smurfie. The 80s got worse each year. Therefore, working backwards means this poll gets higher quality with each year. Pump up the volume.

15: Timelords - Doctorin' The Tardis (4.76) 6: S'Express - Theme From S'Express (6.32) Staggered how badly Timelords did. It's a classic, and was groundbreaking when it was released. Also surprised by S'Express. I'd expected them to challenge Yazz for #1. Nice to see Belinda Carlisle get some recognition, but she recorded many fine singles that were better than "Heaven Is A Place On Earth".

I Get Weak, Summer Rain, and Always Breaking My Heart spring to mind. Don't agree. She recorded many fine singles but Heaven was the jewel in her crown. Moment was always my fav Whitney single.

U2 "Desire" and S-Express "Theme from.." should be higher! Glad Fairground Attraction are not #1 though!

Oh, didn't realise you'd already posted the results. Yazz is an excellent winner.
