As before, you can vote as follows: +10 +9 +8 +7 +6 +5 +4 +3 +2 +1 If you know much less than ten songs, you can do four: +10 +7 +4 +1 And alternatively, if you can only pick three: +10 +5 +1 Right, in chronological order: Number 21s Chic - My Feet Keep Dancing Jefferson Starship - Jane Cockney Rejects - The Greatest Cockney Rip Off Thin Lizzy - Chinatown Sex Pistols - (I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone Joan Armatrading - Me Myself I Kelly Marie - Loving Just For Fun Electric Light Orchestra - Don't Walk away Barry Manilow - Lonely Together Bad Manners - Lorraine Susan Fassbender - Twilight Café Jam - That's Entertainment Linx - Throw Away The Key Visage - Visage Chas & Dave - Stars Over 45 Jets - Love Makes The World Go Round Toyah - Brave New World Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird (EP) Associates - 18 Carat Love Affair/Love Hangover Soft Cell - Where The Heart Is Donna Summer - I Feel Love (Patrick Cowley Remix) Central Line - Nature Boy Sweet Dreams - I'm Never Giving Up Creatures - Miss The Girl Men At Work - Overkill Depeche Mode - Love In Itself Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon Dennis Waterman & George Cole - What Are We Gonna Get 'Er Indoors Wang Chung - Dance Hall Days Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Tesla Girls Kane Gang - Respect Yourself Queen - Thank God It's Christmas Alison Moyet - Invisible Big Sound Authority - This House (Is Where Your Love Stands) Daryl Hall & John Oates - Method Of Modern Love Big Daddy - Dancing In The Dark (EP) Damned - Grimly Fiendish Propaganda - Duel Steve Arrington - Dancin' In The Key Of Life Bryan Ferry - Don't Stop The Dance Echo & The Bunnymen - Bring On The Dancing Horses Siouxsie & The Banshees - Cities in Dust Simon May Orchestra - Howard's Way Theme Madness - Uncle Sam Artists United Against Apartheid - Sun City Mike & The Mechanics - Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground) Suzanne Vega - Marlene On The wall David Bowie - Underground Furniture - Brilliant Mind DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble Timbuk 3 The Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades Communards - You Are My World Cure - Why Can't I Be You Christians - Hooverville (And They Promised Us The World) Bon Jovi - Never Say Goodbye Tams - There Ain't Nothing Like Shaggin' Depeche Mode - Behind The Wheel Was (Not Was) - Spy In The House Of Love Michael Jackson - Man In The Mirror Rod Stewart - Lost in You Eric B & Rakim - Follow The Leader Wee Papa Girl Rappers Feat.

Man In The Mirror, UK number 2 (eventually) and US number one - the mystery is how it only got to number 21 in the Uk charts (number one in mine at the time...)  Vote Cities In Dust, though, it's a forgotten gem

Vote Cities In Dust, though, it's a forgotten gem Man In The Mirror would be a very meh winner in my opinion, I was tempted to leave it out as of course it became a much bigger hit in '09, but as I've allowed other past/future higher peaking singles... Can't believe I didn't vote for Cities in Dust. oops! The top six (in the 21 rate) are separated by just five votes (there's a couple of ties) at the moment. The Number 35 rate is also very close! Not so much the Number 37 rate which, currently, sees a clear winner. But it could all still change... |

I know...I was really excited as I thought we'd be guaranteed a credible no.21 then I spotted Jacko. I've never understood the appeal of Man in the Mirror - no.21 seemed about right. Somehow, after he died, it became a kind of personal anthem for him. Doesn't mean we should rob Furniture, The Cure, Siouxise etc! Damn, I wish I'd put Cities in Dust up at no.4 on my list now...if that would help at all? |

Unfortunately, it wouldn't make much of a difference. Besides, that would be cheating Won't give anything away, but Jacko's victory is not guaranteed! There's still a few which could grab that No.1 spot...Speaking of which, you haven't got long to vote people. This closes Saturday morning. |
