HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 4th OCTOBER 1987

For the fifth consecutive week we have a different record at the top of the chart. Fleetwood Mac earn their first number one with Little Lies.




With just two points separating the two records at the top, it’s another tight race this week asthe Bee Gees move up three places to number two with You Win Again.

Michael Jackson is still not out of the race yet as Bad climbs another place to number three.

Last week’s number one, Pump Up The Volume, sinks to number four and U2 complete the reshuffle of the Top Five as former number one Where The Streets Have No Name dips to number five.

Highest new entry is from Kiss as Crazy Crazy Nights blasts into the Top Ten at number nine.

Biggest climber is from Erasure as The Circus leaps 21 places to number eight.

And here’s this week’s Retro Chart in full….

(-) Eurythmics - Beethoven (I Love To Listen To)

[popchartfreak]

18th October 1987

It's back up on top for a second week for The Bee Gees fab You Win Again, as the Big 5 maintain a vice-like grip for a 3rd week, and Pet Shop Boys get 2 going up to threaten it, Rent modestly keeping their top 10 rate at 100%. Sisters Of Mercy also got top 10 with This Corrosion, and Jan Hammer's tuneful Crockett's Theme is at 8, The Christians make it a 3rd top 10. Billy Idol takes his double Mony Mony into the 20 as Amazulu enter at 75 with their own typically perfunctory cover version.

Eurythmics bound into the 20 with one big leap of Beethoven, who'd been there before as a Fifth Of Beethoven with future Family Guy soundtracker Walter Murphy in 1976, and intro-ing ELO's Roll Over Beethoven in 1973. George Michael takes a big leap of Faith into the 30 (I've been saving that one for over 30 years), as Jellybean sees The Real Thing - well, so have I, twice. The Fatback Band return to the 40 after a long gap, chased by DJ Steve Walsh covering I Found Lovin': signs of the future, hit DJ's.

Highest new entry is The Cure, just ahead of Stevie Wonder extending his chart run to 19 years with some Skeletons in his closet, while INXS are back with a monster track, the brilliant Need You Tonight Kick-starting the new classic album, an all-time funkrock great album and single, and showcasing what a great live act the band were - Michael Hutchence was an awesome frontman, one of the great live gigs I've seen. George Harrison returns with a corker, courtesy of Jeff Lynne productions, after a lengthy gap, 17 years on from My Sweet Lord, and joining his Beatles in the chart with his 50's cover. Chic jack-up Le Freak. Yes, they really do jack it up, but Nile Rodgers is finally forgiven in 20 years or so.

Other than that, lots of chart regulars all return, and I note that all 3 of my playlist oldies that week were future chart-toppers in the 80's, 90's and 10's respectively.
