January 7, 201015 yr Author no all time classics there for me, but these are good pop songs! 1 The Human League - Don't You Want Me 2 Bucks Fizz - The Land Of Make Believe 3 Adam & The Ants - Ant Rap 6 Madness - It Must Be Love 11 Altered Images - I Could Be Happy 13 Rod Stewart - Young Turks 16 Duran Duran - My Own Way 21 Kim Wilde - Cambodia 31 Earth Wind & Fire -Let's Groove 32 Fun Boy Three - The Lunatics (Have Taken Over The Asylum) 33 Kraftwerk- The Model / Computer Love 40 The Pretenders - I Go To Sleep
January 7, 201015 yr 17 The Tweets - The Birdie Song (Birdie Dance) The work of the devil. Hated it as a child and still hate it today. I remember being about 3 and someone played this and I covered my ears and sulked. :( 24 Julio Iglesias -Begin The Beguine (Volver A Empezar) I can't believe this got to no. 1 - sounds like the type of song that'd go top 30 on a quiet week. Had Julio done some promotional work for the song? Can't believe this was so popular it topped the UK chart in 1981.
January 7, 201015 yr Songs I like from the top 40 and my personal "classics" in bold. 1 The Human League - Don't You Want Me 2 Bucks Fizz - The Land Of Make Believe 5 Abba - One Of Us 6 Madness - It Must Be Love 8 Kool & The Gang - Get Down On It 28 Meat Loaf - Dead Ringer For Love 31 Earth Wind & Fire -Let's Groove 33 Kraftwerk- The Model 35 Queen & David Bowie - Under Pressure 37 Olivia Newton-John - Physical There are likely to be songs in this chart I do know but don't recognise them from the song title.
