Nice top 3 - all were among my top scorers.
Su Pollard wasn't THAT bad! and I also liked the Sinitta record.
Thanks, Smurfie.

12) Simply Red - Holding Back The Years - 4.73 I know people don't like Mick Hucknall, but "Holding Back The Years" is a really beatutiful song. Thanks Smurfie.

I like the whole top 3, best of the bunch together with the two Madonna singles, with Live To Tell being the best of the year by miles and miles and miles

The Dire Straits one is a lot better than people's ratings seem to suggest. I don't know why that song was so hated here.
Rod Stewart's wasn't that bad either: certainly better than Nana Mouskouri
