Both of the top 2 have become iconic songs, for different reasons. Deserved podium places.

Only a handful of Madonna songs would get points from me - I actually switch the radio off if she comes on. Nice top 3 and well deserved win for Peter Gabriel but the lowest score for the 80s #4's to date. Thanks to Smurfie for organising.

Bon Jovi only 5th and behind Stan Ridgeway? And that's Bon Jovi's most popular song on here, I guess they really didn't stand a chance at Haven Factor.
This was the last of the years of this, and it's been nearly 2 years. Is this ever going to be resumed?

We actually did 1985 and 1984. It looks like 1983 didn’t get completed as it’s in the archive with no results, so must have been moved in error.
I will complete it at some point tomorrow and then start 1982.
