HAVEN COMBI RETRO CHART FOR W/B 2nd DECEMBER 1984
Nik Kershaw gets another week at number one with ‘The Riddle’, holding off all competition for a third week.
Madonna’s fourth top ten hit of the year becomes her highest charting single as ‘Like A Virgin’ moves up to number two.
Human League are up a place at number three despite a slight dip in their points total this week.
The biggest surprise of the week is Frankie Goes To Hollywood as ‘The Power Of Love’ only shifts up to number four. It took ‘Relax’ nine weeks to make it to the top spot in January, but with ‘The Power Of Love’ only featuring on six charts, will this end their run of number one songs?
This week’s highest new entry is from Paul Young with ‘Everything Must Change’, in at number 15.
Biggest climber this week is from Alison Moyet, up 18 places with ‘Invisible’ to earn her third Top Ten of the year. There’s also a big climb for Paul McCartney (along with The Frog Chorus) as ‘We All Stand Together’ hops 17 places to number 10.
With two of the biggest Christmas songs ever being released this week, it'll be interesting to see what impact they'll have on next week’s chart as we start shaping up for the Christmas chart.
