HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 9th NOVEMBER 1986

It’s back to back number one’s for Bon Jovi as Livin’ On A Prayer follows up You Give Love A Bad Name all the way to the top of the Retro-Chart.




It was a closely fought battle all week but Berlin with Take My Breath Away, the theme from Top Gun, ends up in the silver medal position.

Kim Wilde is still making progress on the chart as You Keep Me Hangin’ On edges up to number three.

Last week’s number one, Always The Sun by the Stranglers crashes all the way down to number four.

Red Box grab another Top Five hit as For America matches the number five peak of their hit from last year, Lean On Me.

New Order are this week’s highest new entry with Bizarre Love Triangle, in at number 19.

And here’s this week’s Retro Chart in full….

18th November 1986

It's 2 weeks on top for Berlin as Shaky gets a career-high of 3 in my charts - with one of his most obscure hits! Bon Jovi make it 2 consecutive top 5's with their signature tune, and Mel & Kim get a first top 10 and get the ball rolling proper on the SAW years of pop dominance. Kim Wilde makes it 5 years of top 10's and Madness 7 years. Nick Kamen climbs into the 20, and Bucks Fizz shoot up into the 40 - keeping their record of top 40's 100% in 5 years.

Highest new entry is Womack & Womack keeping up the run of post-Love Wars tracks to chart, at 42 with Soul Love/Soul Man, as Cyndi Lauper leapfrogs herself as True Colors drops like a brick and the good Change Of Heart enters at 51. Cameo are back with Candy, sweet! Phil Fearon is back with another cover, this time the 1968 Showstoppers song Ain't Nothin' But a Houseparty, and some substantial goodies enter at the lower end, from Robbie Nevil's C'Est La Vie, Oran 'Juice' Jones terrific The Rain, The Communards best-single to-date So Cold The Night, and also a bunch of lesser entries from Glass Tiger (over-rated), Simple Minds, a Springsteen cover of Edwin Starr's classic War, Grace Jones, and a superstar duet from Elton and Cliff, who collectively had made the UK charts every year since 1958, and for quite some time after 1986, Elton having non-stop runs from 1971 through 1999, while Cliff had 1958 through 1974. In my charts Elton had a non-stop run from 1971 through to 2002 with new material, or 2004 including oldies.
