Looking at those songs, I think the only ones that would get played now and be remembered fondly are PSB & Dusty, the Georges Michael & Harrison, Pogues and Percy Sledge. Three of the five being pretty much sixties acts.

Apart from the outstanding winner, those look like very low scores to me. Less than 5.00 for nine of the songs, and 6.00 enough to secure 4th place - feels like Haven wasn't keen on the #2s of the 1980s.

Was not a good year for #2s.
Four of my top 5 finished were in the overall top 5 and no question the best song won although I also liked Judy Boucher.
