ABBA are not only 1st and 4th in your 1977 list but look also at the initials of your top 4 artists in that year.
Blondie are the only artist in your top 5 never to have competed in the Eurovision Song Contest.

Not very much. Top 100, maybe even Top 80 (from 189 songs) is a possible result, but not higher.

Well Bucks Fizz will certainly be near the top of your list, and Nicole. Not sure about Johnny Logan though...

The fight for the last place is also very interesting, there is not such obvious contender as "Wuthering Heights" is 70s, Prodigy in 90s and "Killing In The Name" in 21st century.
