It's a clear victory this week for Mike Oldfield, topping the chart on his fifth week and pushing Yazoo down to three after a three week stay at number one. Irene Cara is holding steady at two with David Bowie climbing two places to four. Rod Stewart is joint fourth place with Bowie this week as his China Girl wrestles with Stewart's Baby Jane. Who will come out on top next week I wonder? The highest new entry is from Bucks Fizz at seven and this could well leapfrog the aforementioned tracks next week!

Remember it well, they played it a lot on the radio.

This week saw a new entry at #1 for "Synchronisity" by the Police, and at #18 for "Bite" by Altered Images. The latter contained several great songs which remain a secret known only to AI fans, but I've listed two of them at #12 and #13 in my chart this week. A little bit of gratuitous Clare:-

Just missing out on a place is a real curio, I never even knew this song was a cover never mind sound like this, remember Opus III well listen to the original. I knew it was a cover and remembered the original which had annoyed me intensely at the time. A bit like "Tom's Diner". An a-cappela song that became a big hit when some instrumentation was added.

____________________________________________________
--(10) Booker Newbury III - Love Town --(13) Wham! - Bad Boys --(15) Bob Marley & The Wailers - Buffalo Soldier --(18) Jo Boxers - Just Got Lucky --(19) Big Country - In A Big Country
5 new entries and probably the biggest surprise was my love for the Funk Masters "It's Over", a fairly charming disco song with a young Juliet Roberts (called just Julie at the time) on lead vocals. She would re-emerge in the 1990s but the rest of them disappeared without a trace.
Heaven 17 have only been absent from the chart one week and now they're back with "Come Live With Me". Maybe not politically correct given their age difference he states at the start.
The other 3 acts are all making comebacks. Tom Robinson I think was last in my chart with "2-4-6-8 Motorway", I don't think I charted with "Won't take no for an answer" or "Glad to be gay". Paul Young was last in the chart in 1978 as part of Streetband with "Toast" and for Freeez it isn't quite so long, March 1981 with Southern Freeez.
