What a diverse bunch of posters here. I can remember all of the #1s except Vitamin Z Burning Flame. This is already an awesome thread Kingpin . If I had to put money on the overall #1 I think I'd go for Giorgio Morober and Philip Oakley - if I remember correctly it had some big weekly points totals although it could be Nena or one of the Frankie hits. Vitamin Z was one of my number ones, here's the video, see if you like it. Reminded me a bit of late 80s acts like Johnny Hates Jazz and Breathe, etc. It was a two week number one for me and reached number 6 on raliverpool's chart. It may have been one of raliverpool's records of the week, which is how I may have come across it as it only reached the giddy heights of number 80 on the Official UK chart. Unfortunately we were the only ones who charted it. img.photobucket.com/albums/v336/ManicKangar

Only four of these number ones are still intact by year end, so we've seen an overhaul of most of these chart-toppers in the second half of the year!

So the first song on the countdown was a chart-topper for raliverpool for a single week all the way back in January. This song also benefitted from hitting the top on Mad Murray’s short lived chart. No points were awarded here by Christie, rubcale, Shireb, Thorney or myself.
