To mark the 50th birthday of the Irish singles chart Today FM have launched a poll to find the nations favourite Number 1 single. And unlike the recent UK poll you can vote for whatever you like! Although there is a shortlist on the website one of the options is other and choosing that one allows you to enter any other number 1 you want.

Surprising to say the least. :lol:

It was a surprise and it was a predictable list too, however, Kate Bush getting top 10 among so many Irish acts is a great achievement so im very proud of her.

Very strange list.

Glad for "Waterloo" and "Galway Girl". Without modern dance shit. Not so bad, Ireland :cheer:
