This is a great year, lots of good songs got to #1, and a few "silly" ones.
9 Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls 10 A-Ha - The Sun Always Shines On TV 8 Billy Ocean - When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going 9 Diana Ross - Chain Reaction 9 Cliff Richard & The Young Ones featuring Hank Marvin - Living Doll 10 George Michael - A Different Corner 3 Falco - Rock Me Amadeus 9 Spitting Image - The Chicken Song 7 Doctor & The Medics - Spirit In The Sky 7 Wham! - Edge Of Heaven 8 Madonna - Papa Don't Preach 5 Chris De Burgh - The Lady In Red 6 Boris Gardiner - I Want To Wake Up With You 6 Communards - Don't Leave Me This Way 7 Madonna - True Blue 6 Nick Berry - Every Loser Wins 8 Berlin - Take My Breath Away 8 Europe - The Final Countdown 5 The Housemartins - Caravan Of Love 10 Jackie Wilson - Reet Petite
A shame that the Housemartins' number one was that one as I pretty much loved everything else they did (and The Beautiful South of course).
Even more a shame which song got to #1 for Chris De Burgh as prior to this he was a great rock musician but unfortunately this is the song he gets remembered for. And "Missing You", another ballad that got to #3 for him. At least people will probably know "A Spaceman Came Travelling" which is a bit closer to his top quality music.

rubcale, shocked you gave such a low score to Cliff. A classic comic relief record, much better than what they churn out now as "comedy".

rubcale, shocked you gave such a low score to Cliff. A classic comic relief record, much better than what they churn out now as "comedy". If you like/don't like an artist it tends to affect your enjoyment of any song they do. I'm afraid this is one of my least fav Cliff efforts, EarlP - if it hadn't been Cliff I may very well have only given it a 2 or 3.
