The number 1's from 1993Please rate the following out of 10. If you don't know a song, please look it up on Youtube before voting. I'll tot the scores up at the end to see which is Havens favourite #1 of 1993. I'll probably leave it open for a few months (say end of October), to make sure we get everyone's votes.
n.b. Where the single is listed as a double A side, I have gone for the "lead" of the two.

I prefer "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" on the Five Live EP to "Somebody To Love", and would have given that one 8 or 9.
Take That's "Relight My Fire" and Meat Loaf entered on the same week but Take That got to number one first, entering at that position.

I predict Ace of Base will win this easily while the two songs that battled for Christmas number one will be battling out last place

10* Mr Blobby - Mr Blobby (* It's a 00 - but as the producers set out to make the most catchy, irritating & annoying earworm of a record as befitting the pink & yellow Noel's House Party creation, then scoring 00 is perfection for it. Hence, why it's a 10)It has more variation in key, tone, and tempo than the entire oeuvre of Adele.
