'My Girl' is a classic, did that song at Uni back in the day. 'Stay' still going strong in the top 10 there as well, such a classic. Strange to think the scary girl in the video is also a member of Bananarama laugh.gif


Did you mean sing it at Uni? Cos that would be impressive to this non-public-singer laugh.gif

One of my "ooh get 'im" claims is I saw Siobhan first in Shakespear's Sister around 1990 before Stay had been recorded and then saw Bananarama on their most recent tour where the original 3 got together again - and Siobhan did Stay in the setlist, pretty well too. The Nanas are still fab. heart.gif

That would be correct re singing it yeah lol. It wasn't my choice to sing it though as it was the college's haha. It is a good oldie though.

Amazing that Siobhan included in her set as didn't those two have a falling out for years. ohmy.gif then again if it's recent then they must have made up!

8th March 1992

It's up to the top spot for the Motown 60's classic from the film called My Girl, and by The Temptations, who get a very first chart-topper 23 years after they peaked at 2 with Diana Ross & The Supremes on I'm Gonna Make You Love Me. KLF move on up past Primal Scream with America: What Time Is Love at 2 and yet another oldie entering at 5 - Robert Palmer's fab and under-rated minor 1978 hit, Every Kinda People. Bryan Adams gets another top 10, Crowded House get a 2nd (or 4th including Split Enz) and Tears For Fears get an umpteenth.

New entries galore this week, Lisa Stansfield inspired by Prince on the fab Time To Make You Mine at 21, The Charlatans very good Wierdo at 27, Dinah Washington's 60's classic Mad About The Boy thanks to a jeans advert with full fold-out poster-sleeve of said wet boy climbing out of a swimming pool (I know cos I own it) and Guns 'n' Roses at 37 with the sprawling ballad November Rain. Outside the 40 there's also Osmond Boys 2nd entry with Second Generation, M People announcing themselves with Colour My Life, Curve committing a Fait Accompli, U2's The Fly being covered whimsically by The Joshua Trio (pun intended) and Hammer dropping his MC on Do Not Pass Me By. But that ruins my A-Z of acts so he stays an MC here.

That leaves Barbra Streisand on her 21st year of chart entries, Places That Belong To You being no Stoney End that's for sure, Joe Cocker spanning an even longer 24 years with his latest blues track, Feels Like Forever, Mr. Big debuting with To Be With You, a huge US hit, but not the 70's band of the same name. That band's 1977 hit Romeo was way better than this one. Finally, Eric Clapton gets the bottom rung with a tribute to his late young son, who tragically died after falling out of a high rise window. I never found it an easy listen and I still don't, though I understand it probably helped deal with the loss.

I don't know what happened there! laugh.gif I think I prob picked up on it after one radio play before it started to get proper airplay and didnt hear it at all that week, cos I def love it and Lightning Seeds and it will be shooting up the charts next week for a top 5 slot week after. Phew! laugh.gif

These days I just buy them week one after liking them/playing them on youtube and ensure I get to hear them each week, as I did at the weekend for Lightning Seeds new one smile.gif

15th March 1992

It's finally on top after quite a few weeks potterin' around, but America: What Time Is Love does what the original versions couldn't manage, and gives The KLF 4 number ones in a row. The Viking OTT appeal is still fab. Lisa Stansfield adds to her decent list of top 10's with the Prince-inspired single, and The Charlatans get another top 10 too, Wierdo!

Highest new entry at 22 is Ce Ce Peniston returning 4 or 5 months on from peaking at 30 in 1991 with Finally, cue another push and hey presto a big hit this time 2 years ahead of that key slot in the film Priscilla Queen Of The Desert. At 26, it's RAF (so I'm bound to support an act with that name) and the fab dance tune We've Got To Live Together, annoyingly not a hit. At 44 and Annie Lennox gets her solo career going with a quiet bang, on the lovely Why, 13 years after debuting with The Tourists on the Loneliest Boy In The World. Wet Wet Wet follow-up the biggie with the lesser-known More Than Love, and Bruce Springsteen makes it 17 years of chart hits with Human Touch.

C&C Music Factory return as Clivilles & Cole, on the banging A Deeper Love, their last big hoorah as an act, though they were hot producers of the late 80's and early 90's until David Cole's early death in 1995. Erasure are at 70 with Breath Of Life, another slow-burner for them, Gun enter with Steal Your Fire, one I've completely forgotten. The Cure, ironically, are not High, they are at 74 and in their 12th year of charting. Finally, The Beautiful South scrape in at 75 with We Are Each Other, one which didn't leave a huge impression on me, unlike previous single Ol' Red Eyes Is Back, still in my chart.

22nd March 1992

it's a first week on top 14 years late for Robert Palmer as Every Kinda People gives him a second number one, with Crowded House closing in on their second chart-topper with Weather With You. The Lightning Seeds get a second top 10 as The Life Of Riley leaps to 5, and Ce Ce Peniston Finally gets a top 10 at 7 6 months on from first charting. U2 sneak One into the top 10, their epic ballad that took me a few years to rate as highly as I should have at the time.

Highest new entry is Swing Out Sister's fab cover of Dusty Springfield's Am I The Same Girl, keeping the same 60's vibe at 12, while Yazz enters at 50 with a rewrite of Quincy Jones' 1981 hit Stuff Like That, and Shawn Christopher debuts a dance track at 52. Salt 'n' Pepa Express how much they like knocking out the hits at 54 and Def Leppard knock out Let's Get Rocked, one of their best singles new in at 70 almost 10 years on from their debut. XTC are 13 years into a chart career, and probably their best album, which they promo with new single The Disappointed at 72.

Finally, Prince says Money Don't Matter 2Nite at 75, which might have been more convincing if he'd not been obsessively getting staff to stop people taking crappy photos on crappy little cameras with no zoom and tinny useless souvenir cassette recordings at his concerts by searching you and and taking them off you, meaning you had to wait for ages to get them back afterwards and as there was no actual internet then nowhere to share them anyway so it all seemed a bit futile and petty except forcing you to buy the programme booklet and the album (which I had done anyway). I may be biased due to experience and of course everyone helps themselves to way better quality actual videos on their phones these days, so I feel I have the moral high ground now oops...

60’s Golden Greats Live at Bournemouth International Centre

This week I took my mum to see some 60's pop stars, one of the few concerts she'd been to, Elton John and Glen Campbell I think are the only ones she'd seen up to that point and I thought she'd enjoy it. Plus, I loved Gerry & The Pacemakers as a kiddie and my first-ever record was Tommy Roe's Dizzy, and I had his Greatest Hits to boot. They were all great fun, spontaneous, chatty, and in Bobby Vee's case he was happy to take requests from the audience for songs obscure or famous from his back catalogue or early rock 'n' roll. I knew I loved a couple of his tracks, but his back catalogue was the big take-out of the night for me - I didn't realise how many great songs he had, so I went and bought the Greatest Hits CD soon as I could, see future playlist oldies of the week no doubt!

29th March 1992

It's a first week on top for Swing Out Sister's cover of the 1969 Dusty Springfield hit cover of the Barbara Acklin original recording of the song she co-wrote with Eugene Record of The Chi-Lites, who also produced it, and the record was also an instrumental hit in the USA for Young-Holt Unlimited as a smooth Soulful Strut. Every version is great, because Eugene Record knew how to write masterpiece soul songs, from Have You Seen Her, Oh Girl, Homely Girl, Too Good To Be Forgotten through to the funky disco fabness of You Don't Have To Go. Swing Out Sister's cover was as good as previous recordings.

The Lightning Seeds go top 3, and out-peak Pure with The Life Of Riley, as Annie Lennox gets her first solo top 5 at 4. Why? Cos it's nice. Dinah Washington's classic jazz-blues Mad About The Boy is up 6, and Hammer gets a top 10 before the law of diminishing returns sets in. Highest new entry is from Tori Amos, still in Winter, at 20, as James keep dropping new singles before the previous has left the chart, Ring The Bells new at 30. The Soup Dragons make it 2 years of chart action with Divine Thing at 44, and Z.Z. Top return for a 9th year of hits with a cover of Elvis Presley's Viva Las Vegas, promoting their Greatest Hits CD nicely.

Right said Fred appeared to be a novelty act with I'm Too Sexy, and decide to keep that image going with the catchy, if basic, Deeply Dippy new at 52, Kym Sims takes my advice at 55, while Roxette worship at the Church Of Your Heart at 56 as their 3-year-run of singles carries on without dropping one yet. Army Of Lovers are besides themselves, both Crucified and new Ride The Bullet at 60 and 61. Ten Sharp say it's You at 63, Soul II Soul are also on 3 years of chart success with a spot of Joy at 64, and Nirvana get a second chart entry (just) with Come As You Are scraping in at 74, and going no higher! The grunge hype left me cold by and large.

Winter is such a lovely song, used to be my favourite Tori song for ages

Also, Breath of Life made it 4 out of 4 chart toppers for me from their fab Chorus album

well one of those is going top 10 next week, and the other is sadly dropping because I don't think I got to hear it much. I'm guessing Radio 1 wasn't playing it much, at least not during the times when I wasnt at work sad.gif

I never bought the Chorus album, but I did buy Winter on vinyl from the local shops as an ex-chart sale, I have the Little Earthquakes CD, and Wild! is the Erasure album I have on vinyl. Criminally, I still don't think I have even a Hits CD for Erasure, just various singles, downloads, and the 1989 Drama Maxi CD from the US. And Now album hits compilations features... ohmy.gif

5th April 1992

It's new in 1 for the 1977 classic Year Of The Cat, Al Stewart didn't set my charts alight with it first time round but by 1992 I was in full-on love mode, and bought the newly released-on-CD-single version, giving an entire top 5 of old songs as ZZ Top shoot up to 5 with Elvis Presley's 1966 film soundtrack title song, Viva Las Vegas, giving ZZ and new chart peak after almost a decade. Ce Ce Peniston Finally makes the top 10, and Erasure keep their long list of top 10's up-to-date with Breath Of Life at 10.

A new entry at 14 for another Trevor Horn-produced Marc Almond epic - this time 1967's Days Of Pearly Spencer, the flop original by David McWilliams might not have produced a career, but he at least got to see David Bowie cover it and Marc Almond have a big hit with the dramatic story-song before dying in 2002. Julian Lennon makes it 8 years of top 20 hits as Get a Life debuts at 19. Shockingly that's a longer span than The Beatles chart career, and only 3 years short of dad John's solo career.

At 34, Kylie has some Finer Feelings with one of her finest 90's tracks, Tom Petty has left the Wilburys to reunite with his Heartbreakers, and Too Good To Be True, but it is - 15 years since they debuted. Foreigner bring a revived 1981 track back, still waiting for a girl like you at 44, Inner City revamp Hallelujah, Howard Jones is lifted up with his 9th charting year at 64, Curtis Stigers follows-up a big hit with another big hit (albeit a less-decent one), Randy Crawford is 13 years into her career with a cover of Journey's Who's Crying Now, and The Pasadenas are back with a dance-version Bread cover. Let's just say Let Loose showed how to cover the classic Make It With You later in the decade and leave it at that.

Oh! I assumed the climber to the top 10 would be Winter and the one that missed out would be Breath of Life ohmy.gif

Yes it surprised me too re A Deeper Love, I could have sworn it did better! I guess it was the Aretha Franklin cover that really hit the spot for me, pretty sure that went top 10, if not top 5 (but I havent got that year on spreadsheets yet so I've no idea if I'm right laugh.gif )

12th April 1992

It's 2 weeks on top for Al Stewart's classic 1977 minor hit, Year Of The Cat as Marc Almond gets a hat-trick of top 10's with The Days Of Pearly Spencer at 4, and Foreigner's 1981 rock ballad biggy Waiting For A Girl Like You shoots up to 8, and highest new entry at 5 is a reactivated Glam classic from Alvin Stardust, My Coo Ca Choo topping my late 1973 charts. Chuck in the retro-sounding Def Leppard Let's Get Rocked up to 9 and the MOR ballad Why up to 3, and it's pretty much an oldies entire top 10.

Kylie climbs to 11, XTC to 23, and a host of new entries invade the chart to at least give some fresher blood lower down the chart: The Stone Roses I Am The Resurrection new at 33, Cher sings Could've Been You at 40, Frankie Miller lauds Caledonia at 42 for 15 years of chart entries, Chaka Khan's on 18 years as she enters at 59, Jody Watley on 13 years at 62, Liquid debut at 64, Chris De Burgh 15 years at 73 and Genesis also on 18 years at 74.

Curiosity decide it's the the year of the cat and drop it from their name, as their fab cover of Johnny Bristol's 1974 smash Hang On In There Baby is new at 45, and Rod Stewart covers great mate Elton John's Your Song. That's before Phyllis and Sharon fell out of course. Texas also return with a fab soul classic cover, Al Green's Tired Of Being Alone at 55.

19th April 1992

It's a first (and last) chart-topper for Def Leppard - Let's Get Rocked might not be as good as Animal, but it's outpeaked it when the main competition is oldies, not least Steve Harley coming back to a new peak of 2 17 years on from Make Me Smile going top 10. Kylie meanwhile continues to add her growing number of top 10's with Finer Feelings. My feeling is she's not going to stop doing that for another 30 years at least.

Two more oldies are back, with Squeeze's 1979 Cool For Cats is at 18, and Madness get another revived oldie with House Of Fun at 19 10 years on from peaking at 2. New at 29, Kim Wilde's forgotten fab Love Is Holy, 11-year-career and counting, and I'm hoping she does it when I see her for the 5th time next week. Brand New Heavies Never Stop at 51, Michael Jackson's firmly In The Closet at 60, and Woman In Chains is back again for Tears For Fears & Oleta Adams 3 years on from going top 10. Mariah Carey gets a another entry, The Mission are still goth-rocking, M People are starting to build up to big sales Someday soon, and John Cougar sneaks in for a decade of mostly-Mellencamp tracks.

Errol Brown Live at Poole Arts Centre

Errol had broken up Hot Chocolate (sadly) as one of my fave singles acts for 15 years in a row was the band, but in 1992 he was still touring their back catalogue. Oddly, most of my fave records either he didn't do or lacked a bit of oomph, and it was the funk ones that stood out, bar Emma, which is stark to start with, and remaining stark isn't too difficult.

26th April 1992

It's a first-ever week on top for Steve Harley's classic 1975 UK chart-topper, Make Me Smile, as oldies continue to dominate my chart, Curiosity's cover up fast to 3, for their 2nd top 10, Kim Wilde leaping 21 to 8 as Love Is Holy adds to the 11 years of top 10's. Highest new (old) entry is CCR and 1969's Bad Moon Rising, a fave from Singapore days and not far off my driving the Florida Keys one moonlit night with the track on the radio.

The other theme of the week is grungeish new entries, L7 at 33 with Pretend We're Dead, Nirvana Come As You Are at 57, and Pearl Jam's Even Flow at 73. Sounds Of Balckness bring a bit of gospel soul dance at 41, KWS ruin a KC & The Sunshine chart-topper for me, Please Don't Go still charting at 68 though, and Sisters Of Mercy's Temple Of Love is gothtastic at 63. On TV it was the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, and the tracks I picked weren't the tracks that got onto the UK chart-topping EP.

3rd May 1992

It's a hat-trick of Revor Horn-produced chart-toppers for Marc Almond and his latest single from Tenement Symphony, his cover of The Days Of Pearly Spencer, a highly-regarded 60's flop. That keeps off a massive leap from Sisters Of Mercy, with a little help from Ofra Haza as she gets a second number two 4 years on from I'm Nin Alu, and the Temple Of Love is probably the best Sisters Of Mercy goth anthem. Julian Lennon gets a 3rd top 10, Get A Life, and XTC about the same as The Disappointed makes it 13 years since the fab making Plans For Nigel did it first. Kim Wilde is at 5 with Love Is Holy, and I saw her in concert last week doing the track. Still fab in every way, both.

Rozalla's back with Are You Ready To Fly at a new peak of 12 - quite a few about-face reversals back up the chart, I suspect I bought the latest Now album this week. Soul II Soul keep the top 20's coming with Joy, and the highest new record is En Vogue and the great My Lovin' at 22, and Gary Moore replaces himself in the top 75 with Story Of The Blues at 27, doing what it says on the tin. Natalie Cole morphs into dad Nat 'King' Cole's back catalogue as she prepares a whole album of his standards and a tour with a full orchestra - which I went to see. New at 37.

SL2 are On A Ragga Tip at 47, Shakespear's Sister follow-up a monster with a great track, I Don't Care at 51, Joe Cocker extends his chart career to 24 years with another Blues ballad, Carter amuse at 66, and the best new entry is from Richard Marx slipping in at 71 with his still career-best Hazard. Lionel Richie extends his career to 18 years, 1974 being the year he debuted as part of The Commodores on the funktastic instrumental Machine Gun, before he became terminally solo dull in the 80's, but still managing to Do It To Me in 1992.

10th May 1992

It's 2 weeks on top for Marc Almond as Curiosity grab their highest chart position to date, 2 with Hang On In There Baby, and Kim Wilde gets her highest since 1989. Das Boot sails on in for U96, the submarine movie remix being a dance instrumental banger at 7, as Rozalla finally gets a top 10 slot for Are You Ready To Fly as new single Love Breakdown pops in at 64. Richard Marx rockets Hazard up to 12 and Flowered Up get an instant top 20 debut with Weekender.

Extreme are up with their Freddie Mercury tribute concert Queen track into the 40, Love Of My Life, and House Of Love keep the run of singles going at 35 as they Feel good. Simply Red feel even better, Thrill Me is at 55, and The Troggs get an album track from Athens Andover (Reg Presley from Andover, REM from Athens GA, on production duty) - Tuned Into Love at 58, their second of 1992, and bearing in mind their hit chart career was already over by the time I started charting in 1968, and ahead of Wet Wet Wet doing a cover that did modestly well.

Morrissey drops a bit of an opinion on friends hating it when we become successful - speak for yourself Mozza! Bomb The Bass add another to the list, Keep Giving Me Love, and Wilson Philips claim You Won't See Me Cry 2 years into their singles run, at 74. It's Eurovision this week in 1992, and my 3 faves are from Italy, France and Israel - so no changes there, much, as I tend to lean towards those countries' entries more often than not. Ireland won again (Linda Martin), Michael Ball came 2nd for the UK and neither of them was as good as Italy (4th), France (8th) and Israel (6th) - but then in those days the UK and Ireland sang in English, a huge advantage, and other countries weren't allowed to (except Malta, which had no music industry to speak of). So any piece of tat from the UK could do well in those days and it took 20 years for the UK to realise that was no longer the case once everyone else could sing in English too, blaming politics instead of the sense of inflated entitlement in the face of consistent tat getting entered by the UK, give or take 4 or 5 good ones, until Sam Ryder in 2022 ended the national moaning.
