May 4, 201114 yr Really difficult to cut this down to a Top 10. December 1980 (I was only 11 years old) was when I first started writing down the chart each week and recording the Top 40 on a Sunday night! +15 John Lennon “(Just Like) Starting Over”<<<John's comeback single charted just a few weeks before his murder hence the bizarre chart run: 30-20-13-8-10-21-1-2-2-5-5-15-22 +12 Olivia Newton-John and Electric Light Orchestra “Xanadu” +10 David Bowie “Ashes to Ashes” +08 The Jam “Going Underground/Dreams of Children” +06 ABBA “Super Trouper” +05 Blondie “The Tide Is High” +04 ABBA “The Winner Takes It All" +03 Blondie “Atomic” +02 Dexy’s Midnight Runners “Geno” +01 Barbra Streisand “Woman In Love” -02 St. Winifred’s School Choir “There’s No One Quite Like Grandma”<<<Kept John Lennon from the Christmas No.1!!!

May 5, 201114 yr Author I think Atomic is going to walk this - and St Winifred's look set for the dumper. In 1981 just about everyone will be giving their -2 to "Shaddup You Face" [this includes me, awful song], and hopefully "Tainted Love", "Imagine" and "Don't You Want Me" will get lots of plus votes :D Edited May 5, 201114 yr by danielMFAO

Yes, I think that'll happen, but I really hope Ghost Town gets through - that'll be my +15 for sure. I also loved Adam Ant as a four year old, so have to give him some love too!
May 5, 201114 yr And which song gets +3? :lol: all sorted now dont understand what happened to my 3rd and 5th chocie lol!

EP)” Remarkably good year for #1s! And lots of variety. Could easily give 5 points or more to most of these songs.
May 5, 201114 yr The excellent ones 15 The Jam “Going Underground/Dreams of Children” 12 Blondie “Atomic” 10 David Bowie “Ashes to Ashes” 08 Blondie “Call Me” The very good ones 06 The Pretenders “Brass In Pocket” 05 The Jam “Start” 04 Dexy’s Midnight Runners “Geno” 03 Blondie “The Tide Is High” 02 The Specials “Too Much Too Young (The Special AKA Live! EP)” 01 ABBA “The Winner Takes It All” The utterly abysmal one -2 St. Winifred’s School Choir “There’s No One Quite Like Grandma”
