Posted September 8, 201311 yr Yes, despite loads of great new records around, possibly the greatest record of the 80's gets to the top again (1985, 1986 and now). Tears For Fears has not just one, not two, but three hooks, perfectly constructed pop. Achingly great. In at 4, an instant great melody, and possibly the best song ever called Hero (Discuss!). Lovely. Another new act at 7, Radio One fave Dan Croll, also with strong melodies to it. Hey I like a pop tune, what can I say! Just to keep up the oldies, Paul "Beatles" McCartney gets his 45 years of new Top 10 hits, his first since 2006, and his 6th consecutive decade of Top 10 hits. Shane Filan does what Westlife did only twice in their entire career - make my Top 20! I wasn't a fan generally... Meanwhile Bryan Ferry gets his first Top 30 hit in 20 years with a charming 1920's ragtime version of his classic 70's rockdance stomper. Once upon a time he was a major hero of mine, his 70's career is just awesome, and influential (with and without Roxy Music), but in the 80's he opted for pleasant MOR, before descending into Blandness since. Its not as great as the original of course, but it's a move in the right direction. 1 4 1 3 EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD - Tears For Fears 252500 2 1 1 7 LOVE IS A BOURGEOIS CONSTRUCT - Pet Shop Boys 470000 3 3 1 14 LA LA LA - Naughty Boy/ Sam Smith 1388200 4 NEW 4 1 HERO - Family Of The Year 65000 5 2 1 7 SUMMERTIME SADNESS - Lana Del Ray/ Cedric Gervais 842000 6 5 5 4 JUST KIDS - F.U.R.S. 186000 7 48 7 4 IN OUT - Dan Croll 99800 8 9 8 4 COUNTING STARS - Onerepublic 123000 9 6 6 5 COOL - LE YOUTH 174000 10 39 10 2 NEW - Paul McCartney 59100 11 8 5 7 SO HIGH - Ghost Loft 285400 12 7 2 6 RED HANDS - Walk Off The Earth 420000 13 10 10 5 (YOU DON'T KNOW) HOW GLAD I AM - Nancy Wilson 147200 14 11 2 13 LOVE ME AGAIN - John Newman 641500 15 18 15 2 LIFTED - Naughty Boy/ Emeli Sande 49000 16 29 16 3 BRAND NEW DAY - Kodaline 60300 17 32 17 4 EVERYTHING TO ME - Shane Filan 65400 18 26 18 4 COOL LIKE ME - Fryars 68900 19 19 19 4 FU MANCHU - The Lee Thompson Ska Orchestra/ Bitty McLean 78900 20 38 20 4 ROAR - Katy Perry 48800 21 16 1 17 SUPREME - Postiljonen 1286250 22 40 22 3 LITTLE NIKKI SAYS - Little Nikki 48500 23 58 23 2 ANIMALS - Martin Garrix 29450 24 12 12 4 RIGHT PLACE RIGHT TIME - Olly Murs 99500 25 14 2 8 THURSDAY - Pet Shop Boys/ Example 416850 26 13 4 8 TRUE LOVE - Pink/ Lily Rose Cooper 364500 27 15 10 8 ATLANTIS - Postiljonen 220200 28 46 28 2 KISS IN TAKSIM SQUARE - Chinawoman 31050 29 30 29 4 APPLAUSE - Lady Gaga 71400 30 NEW 30 1 LOVE IS THE DRUG - The Bryan Ferry Orchestra 18000 31 17 17 7 TAKE BACK THE NIGHT - Justin Timberlake 130100 32 23 23 7 LOVING YOU - Matt Cardle/ Melanie C 98200 33 22 5 16 POSTCARD FROM PARIS - Glen Campbell 443950 34 20 20 4 PRIMEVAL - Duane Eddy 72900 35 25 25 6 FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE - Stevie Wonder 96650 36 NEW 36 1 HOLD ON WE'RE GOING HOME - Drake/ Majid Jordan 17400 37 42 37 2 ON OUR WAY - The Royal Concept 31050 38 47 19 9 SAFE AND SOUND - Capital Cities 150100 39 24 8 8 COME UNTO ME - The Mavericks 181350 40 NEW 40 1 SAME LOVE - Macklemore & Lewis 17000 41 21 9 7 FOOL - Mayer Hawthorne 173550 42 31 17 7 HEARD IT FROM A FRIEND - Lolo 119900 43 37 1 21 GET LUCKY - Daft Punk/ Pharrell Williams/ Nile Rodgers 831750 44 33 3 12 A TOUT A L'HEURE - Bibio 431750 45 NEW 45 1 LET GO - Dive In 13000 46 34 9 8 LIVE YOUR LIFE - MIKA 204000 47 27 19 7 KEEP ON MOVING ON - Andy Burrows 99400 48 35 35 2 MIDNIGHT RIDER - UB40 29800 49 41 5 11 I'M WANDERIN' - Kristina Train 369650 50 50 50 2 RADIATE - Jack Johnson 24000 51 28 14 6 MOVING - Travis 132650 52 36 10 10 BANG BANG - will.i.am 190650 53 53 46 4 THE STARS ARE OUT - Mayer Hawthorne 47750 54 54 54 2 SHOW ME THE WONDER - Manic Street Preachers 22000 55 71 55 2 INHALE - Sirah 16600 56 56 56 2 THE BEST JEWEL THIEF IN THE WORLD - Prefab Sprout 21200 57 60 57 9 THE LAST TIME - The Rolling Stones 61000 58 52 3 15 BLURRED LINES - Robin Thicke/ T.I./ Pharrell 469700 59 51 10 12 I LOVE IT - Icona Pop/ Charli XCX 198400 60 67 60 3 SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW - Keane 22200 61 55 9 10 SUN - Belinda Carlisle 201250 62 61 1 21 PHOTOGRAPH - Ringo Starr 489350 63 63 63 4 STRONG - London Grammar 27600 64 69 64 2 SONNENTANZ (SUN DON'T SHINE) - Klangkarussell/ Will Heard 13300 65 NEW 65 1 WE OWN THE NIGHT - The Wanted 7000 66 65 1 21 SHORLEY WALL - Ooberman 677750 67 74 67 3 LOST GENERATION - Rizzle Kicks 17000 68 45 6 10 A ROSE BY ANY NAME - Blondie/ Beth Ditto 299750 69 NEW 69 1 BLOOD DIAMONDS - Simple Minds 6200 70 73 70 2 THINGS WE LOST IN THE FIRE - Bastille 11400 71 70 1 119 GOD ONLY KNOWS - The Beach Boys 1957150 72 NEW 72 1 NOTHING'S GONNA STOP US NOW - Starship 5600 73 NEW 73 1 SLEEPWALKING - Lissie 5400 74 NEW 74 1 WHY'D YOU ONLY CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE HIGH - The Arctic Monkeys 5200 75 NEW 75 1 EVERY TIME I SEE YOU I GO WILD - B.E.F./ Kim Wilde 5000 DROP OUTS 43 23 4 HOME - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros 70300 44 44 2 BLACK BEAUTY - Lana Del Ray 26500 49 18 5 CUPS (PITCH PERFECTS WHEN I'M GONE) - Anna Kendrick 89900 57 57 10 HEY JOE - Jimi Hendrix Experience 55700 59 59 3 BURN - Ellie Goulding 22900 62 26 5 FURTHER AWAY (ROMANCE POLICE) - Lissie 57100 64 45 3 SUPERSOAKER - Kings Of Leon 27500 66 45 3 40 DAY DREAM - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros 32800 68 68 1 MOVE - Mausi 6400 72 72 2 HOME AGAIN - Elton John 11000 75 75 2 TRUE GRIT 2013 - Glen Campbell 10000

September 9, 201311 yr Hi, John! Absolute classic is at No.1! And all Top 2 looks like reminiscence from the mid-80's: Tears for Fears knock Pet Shop Boys from the top spot... I wish i could turn back time... :) Continuing with the 80's memories, nice to find Starship at 72. I'm also thinking of including "Nothing Gonna Stop Us Now" in the Chart as it was used in Talk Talk TV recent commercial.

Thanks Andrey, yes, very 80's, pop was booming back then B-) Starship has just made the UK Top 40 thanks to the ad. It doesnt seem 26 years old.....though truth to say, I preferred them as Jefferson Starship and Jefferson Airplane and Grace Slick solo! I want to rechart Grace's Dreams from 1980 a forgotten great you can't download, and Somebody To Love or Jane would be good too B-) cheers! john

Glad to know I'm not the only personal chart freak out there! Fantastic chart as always :D Hi Ah, thanks for the compliments! and for the BEF tips, will investigate further The Noisettes are great Live, a great shame theyve fallen out of chart fashion so quickly! Tears For Fears made the UK Archive Top 40 so I used it as an excuse to give it some more chart points :lol: Its around number 90 in my all-time chart-points list and needed to be much higher! Probably my fave track of the 80's! Justin's track isnt one of his best yes youre right, it's more of a good groove album track than a lead single off an album, but it sounds fine in a mix cd without actually ever leaping out in it. cheers! john B-)
