HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 7th DECEMBER 1986

It’s an easy second week at the top for Joey Tempest and co as The Final Countdown remains firmly planted at number one.



Genesis move up to number two with Land Of Confusion, leapfrogging Debbie Harry, who remains stuck at number three with French Kissin’ In The USA.

Alison Moyet is back in the Top Five with Is This Love, her biggest hit since All Cried Out peaked at number two in 1984.

Erasure complete the Top Five with Sometimes spending a seventh week in the Top Ten.

A-Ha are this week’s biggest climber as Cry Wolf leaps a huge 24 places to become their sixth Top Ten hit in a little over a year.

It’s a slow week for new entries with just four new songs appearing on the chart, the biggest of which is from Madonna at number 11 with Open Your Heart.

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

Many thanks for the 13 charts posted this week from: Shireblogger , TheThorne , rubcale , smokeyb , Whitneyfan , darkstar79 , o , raliverpool , popchartfreak , coolchristie2 , Earl Purple and Mark

I've included two weeks of Official Charts as I'm away over Christmas and the only time I'll really have for the year end rundown will be next weekend.  If you're able to post the final two charts of the year in here by Friday please that would be great, or let me know if you're freezing one or both of them.  There are two official UK charts but I think the Billboard one may be frozen over the Christmas period, they both look pretty quiet.
