At number one on my Retro Rewind Chart .... I very nearly went with the video from a 1993 Later with Matt Johnson's band included Johnny Marr (guitar) & Gail Ann Dorsey (bass & female BVs) with the host repeating his career best piano solo from the original record, but in the end have gone for the 12" & Soul Mining debut album version of this Mike Thorne produced UK #68 & Australia #43 track which is far more famous today than most of the UK top ten hits from this era.
My highest new entry ... well just watch that live lipsynched performance of this UK #10 hit written by Andy Hill and Ian Bairnson and produced by Hill .... and some poor fools think Steps were/are better ... dear oh dear.

LP Yazoo - Winter Kills (2LP 2-1 Upstairs At Eric's) LP Abba - Cassandra (3Bs 1-1-2 The Day Before You Came) LP Madness - Walking With Mr Wheeze (1Bs 3 House Of Fun)
My highest new entry is a USA #68 song written and sung by Pete Townshend taken from their last studio album before splitting for the first time (It's Hard). The lyrics describe a party in which people hide from their problems behind a façade, usually via hedonism & too much cocaine. Hence its songwriter liked the bitter irony of Donald Trump adopting it in his successful 2016 campaign to become the Republican Party nominee!

The Camden nutty boys grab only their second Retro Rewind chart topper to date with this UK #5, Ireland #3, Australia #17, USA #7, & #1 in Canada & Sweden working class kitchen sink pop classic.
My highest new entry comes from the debut USA #107 post disco single by the Italian American singer/dancer Madonna Ciccone which she wrote solo. I have a gut feeling she will go far .....

Topping my Retro Rewind chart is the 'one hit wonder' English pop band formed by Lol Mason (formerly of City Boy) and Mark Tibenham reached UK #7, Canada #12, & Australia #97 with their debut "80s Northern Soul" recording later sampled by Roll Deep.
My highest new entry is the UK #2, USA #2, Canada #1, Australia #2 rock pop song written, recorded and produced by Eddy Grant, who released it from his 1982 album Killer on the Rampage. It's title is a reference to the first place electricity lit the streets in the area of Brixton, South of London, where the 1981 Brixton Riots took place.

Topping my Retro Rewind chart is the seven piece girl band signed to Stiff records with their self penned fourth single from their self titled only album, and their seventh single to date. It turned out to be by far their biggest hit reaching UK #3, Australia #45, & USA #75.
My highest new entry were the New Romantic pop funk outfit formed in Leighton Buzzard in 1978, the band were originally known as Art Nouveau, a four-piece avant-garde group, with Nick Beggs on bass guitar, Steve Askew on lead guitar, Stuart Croxford Neale on keyboards, and Jeremy "Jez" Strode on drums. In 1981, they advertised for a new lead singer, ultimately auditioning and choosing Christopher Hamill, who then went under the stage name Limahl (an anagram of his surname). The name of the group was then changed, they signed to EMI Records, and hired Paul Gambaccini as their PR manager (he was dating Limahl during this period); and got Colin Thurston & Duran Duran Nick Rhodes to produce their debut album White Feathers. This single peaked at #1 in the UK, Germany, Ireland & Belgium, as well as USA #5, Australia #6, & Canada #8.

The second single from the singer's sixth studio album, Thriller was written and composed by Jackson and produced by Jackson and Quincy Jones. The song is about a woman, Billie Jean, who had spent a night of passion with the narrator and now claims that the narrator is the father of her newborn son. It was based on girls who had made the same claim about his older brothers in the Jacksons. This legendary track topped the charts virtually everywhere and finished in the 1983 Year End countdowns as USA #2, UK #14, Australia #4, & Canada #9.

Pretty impressive run for ABBA's farewell song. At least here justice has been done. Never heard of Maisonettes. And also never expected The The to score no1 with this particular song but pleased to see it.

The highest new entry is the internationally released third single from The Dreaming album, the lyrics are about seeing something one really wants (God in this case), then not being able to see or experience it ever again. This alternative folk waltz reached the top 40 in France & Spain, Canada #83 & Australia #76. I still don't understand why Bjork's all time favourite song was not a single in the UK.
