oh dear, sounding like a broken record here, but I charted every record on this list bar 1, liked them all, loved most, adored well over 30... sad.gif

Great to see Popcorn get major love already, number one in my charts 1972 way ahead of it's time and the track that can perhaps claim to be the first EDM hit. Looked on as a disposable novelty record at the time by rock musos of the 70's. Who's laughing now, eh? (me, of course, I have a long memory and teenage resentment for those trashing my beloved pop music faves) tongue.gif

Yes that Four Seasons cover by The Osmonds is a shock topper to me too, but it's become a latter-day feeling-sorry-for-myself anthem for me but would have struggled to make the 30 at one time... cool.gif

it's a three horse race at the moment - just four points between them. With several others not far away in the scores.
