Let's get mine in now. Chart dated 31 October 1987 for me, this is the first of the two charts, but based on entries in the chart played on 1 November 1987 so in essence November has spawned a monster in the name of entry at #2
1(1) George Michael - Faith 2(-) Freddie Mercury & Monserrat Caballe - Barcelona 3(2) Steve Winwood - Valerie (87) 4(3) Kiss - Crazy Crazy Nights 5(12) T'Pau - China In Your Hands
6(4) Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies 7(15) Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes - (I've Had) The Time Of My Life 8(5) Bee Gees - You Win Again 9(10) Scarlet Fantastic - No Memory 10(11) Pet Shop Boys - Rent
11(6) Cure - Just Like Heaven 12(7) Sisters Of Mercy - This Corrosion 13(21) George Harrison - Got My Mind Set On You 14(8) Was (Not Was) - Walk The Dinosaur 15(9) Bananarama - Love In The First Degree
16(-) Belinda Carlisle - Heaven Is A Place On Earth 17(-) Nina Simone - My Baby Just Cares For Me 18(-) Marillion - Warm Wet Circles 19(24) Style Council - Wanted 20(17) Billy Idol - Mony Mony
21(18) Terence Trent D'Arby - Dance Little Sister 22(19) Tiffany - I Think We're Alone Now 23(22) Christians - When The Fingers Point 24(27) Ray Parker Jnr - I Don't Think That Man Should Sleep Alone 25(-) Donna Summer - Dinner With Gershwin
26(-) Richard Marx - Should've Known Better 27(14) Bruce Springsteen - Brilliant Disguise 28(-) Communards - Never Can Say Goodbye 29(-) Jesus & Mary Chain - Darklands 30(16) Alarm - Rain In The Summertime
--(13) U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name --(20) M.A.R.R.S - Pump Up The Volume --(23) Fatback Band - I Found Lovin' --(25) Pet Shop Boys & Dusty Springfield - What Have I Done To Deserve This? --(26) Michael Jackson - Bad --(28) Bryan Ferry - The Right Stuff --(29) Eurythmics - Beethoven (I Love To Listen To) --(30) Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam - Lost In Emotion
This chart is massive and there is no room to carry passengers. Sorry Rick Astley, your song is awful. Bananarama have an S/A/W song in the chart but it falls this week from #9 to #15. I would say this is a pretty strong top 10 so the Pet Shop Boys being at the tail of it after two #1s is partly down to the quality of the rest but I do think this is a drop for them.
Meanwhile even worse for Marillion who have reached #1 with 4 of their last 5 singles, Incommunicado falling short at #2 but Warm Wet Circles is way off the mark being only the 4th highest entry.
Nina Simone's song was written in the 1930s I think but she recorded it in 1957. However it wasn't a hit for her then and so you won't be seeing it in my retro chart when it reaches 1957. Still a 1957 song was Christmas #1 in the UK in 1986, so why not try their luck again this year?
Communards song one of two Jackson Five covers in the UK chart. Never thought much of their version of this, but Gloria Gaynor also covered it in 1974 and reached #2. For those unaware the other cover in the UK top 40 is "Maybe Tomorrow" which really is a poor song and UB40 don't really make it that much better, thus you don't find them in this chart either.
This is almost crying for me to post 2 videos.. but I'll limit it to just this one.

1st November 1987
It's a 3rd week on top for Fleetwood Mac's Little Lies, and The Christians manage to break up the top 5 a bit, no finger-pointing but it's their second top 5. Sly & The Family Stone reach a new peak for Family Affair 15 years on, but Runnin' Away originally peaked at 2. The Nana's make it 2 top 10's in a SAW row, and George Michael gets his first solo top 10 since A Different Corner and his 3rd in total. Cliff makes it 3 top 20's in a row as Remember Me shoots up to 14. Ironically, I remember it much less well than the first 2 singles, though the album they came from was probably his best one since I'm Nearly Famous.
There's a rock top 20 invasion from Aerosmith, Whitesnake, a 60's vet as George Harrison gets his first in a few years, Donna Summer ditto, and Bryan Ferry still manages to keep the 20's going with the right stuff 15 years on from Virginia Plain - the last time he made my chart was with an actual '20's styled cover of Love Is The Drug. T'Pau replace themselves in my 40, and highest new entry is from The Party Boys. It's Alan Lancaster ex-Quo and some Aussie mates, and their stomping cover of the brilliant tribal John Kongos 1971 hit. Either version is better than the spaced-out Happy Mondays most-famous version Step On, which is limp in comparison.
Future Olympic themed-reissued hit Barcelona pops in for Freddie Mercury doing a double diva operatic effort, Cher rocks it up and is most-welcome-returnee after a bit of a drought music-wise (not that she was bovvered what with the acting career and all), as she finds someone, and Bryan Adams, Dream Academy, Rick Astley, and Wax all follow-up in minor ways. Nina Simone brings a jazz oldie into the charts, her first appearance since 1969 in my charts, missed out the 70's entirely! Cybill "Moonlighting" Shepherd covers 1934 classic ballad Blue Moon, following co-star Bruce Willis into my chart, and much-covered over the decades - but this was the first version to chart.
Rush are back after a lengthy gap, Earth, Wind & Fire go all late 80's in sound and it doesn't quite work as well as the 70's disco funk-outs, and I am clearly playing my USA holiday albums again as my playlist lists The Way You Make Me Feel for the first time, possibly aware it's the next single, and brings back One More Chance for the Pet Shop Boys, and Another Part Of Me for MJ for the 5th time - yet it wouldn't be a single for knocking-on 2 years!

8th November 1987
It's back on top for The Bee Gees, winning again for the 3rd week in total spread out over 6 weeks as George Harrison gets his first top 5 in 6 years, since All Those Years Ago topped my chart - that was in effect a Beatles record, it had Paul & Ringo on it and it was about John. Bananarama make it 2 top 5's in a row, Whitesnake get a first (and last) top 10, and Donna Summer adds to her total of top 10's which started in 1977.
Tiffany leaps up and overtakes the other Tommy James cover, as loads of US hits that had charted for me in September start to hit in the UK or get airplay and re-enter, Cutting Crew at 27, Expose at 30, Jellybean at 20 reaching a new peak, leaving the highest actual new track from Heartbeat entitled Tears From Heaven - I had to youtube this one as it's been utterly lost from my memory banks, and it was even a hit!
At 37, the brilliant Jam & Lewis track for Alexander O'Neal, worthy of no Criticism whatsoever, and Aztec Camera get another sweet ballad in at 49. Eric B & Rakim debut with the unusual and fab Paid In Full, heavy on sampling and a sign of hip-hop things to come, Voice Of The Beehive start a great little run of singles, of which I shall Say Nothing yet. Double get that follow-up entry and it's pretty good, The Smiths sneak in with something they couldn't finish, and isn't that just so Morrissey?! Maxi Priest also starts a good run with the 3rd cover (reggae this time) of Some Guys Have All The Luck, all very different, and all in a 5-year period.
The La's debut 2 years before their classic is released, and The Proclaimers debut with their best track (excepting the gorgeous Sunshine On Leith) the storming Letter From America, Glen Goldsmith pops in tears-free, and Pet Shop Boys enter with the top album track of the week Heart - future remixed single in 1988, but I'd somehow not spotted it's potential up to this point. It would, had I allowed album tracks higher than 76, in all likelihood have been topping the chart this week - which Rent singularly had failed to do for the first time since Love Comes Quickly also didn't get on top.
