Tears For Fears celebrate a clear victory on our chart this week and spend a second week on top making this world not quite so mad! The Pretenders are back on form at number 2 with Culture Club still quite hurt at 3 after being removed from number 1 last week. Eddy Grant doesn't want to dance but he might just have to if he is to celebrate getting our highest new entry at 9 this week. There are other new entries for a very loving Beatles track this week, Wham who are going for it and Bauhuas among others.
