Doh! oopsie I'm afraid one week is all it got. :o I think I didn't get to hear it much at the time (one week at 40 in the UK chart!) - plus side I did buy the cd single though after it had bargain binned as it had Love Letters and That Ole Devil as bonus reasons to buy it. I'd go so far as to say that may well have got it the top 40 spot as I used to buy cd singles when they had bonus oldies to make the extra cost worthwhile. I've also got it on NOW 20 and Greatest Hits cd. So for a track that peaked at 70 I have it coming out of my ears 30 years later :lol: Playing it now, not heard it for years & Years, it's quite classy and down beat and deserved better....

 

 

27th October 1991

 

It's 2 weeks on top for Metal Guru as I get my second Florida holiday, which means sunshine, theme park rides, buying American CD's, getting to see US sci-fi and comedy shows months (or years) ahead of the UK, and listening to US radio, so that means a lot of reissues for UK hits now big on Florida radio and charting in the USA. It also means I lose touch with the UK music scene for 2 weeks except for the highlights cassette I bought with me for my portable cassette player-recorder. Yes, I recorded tracks off the radio, and bits of US radio so I could feel like I was still on holiday when I got home!

 

Kiss Them For Me was one of the biggie tunes, so that's back in at a new peak of 3, Kim Appleby gets a 3rd solo top 10 and 6th in total, and The KLF also return to the top 10 with 3 a.m. also now happening in the USA. 2 Unlimited get a massive climb into the top 20, and Dizzy is also top 20 22 years after I bought the original Tommy Roe chart-topper. Roberta Flack & Maxi Priest do a nice climb inside the 30, and Paula Abdul debuts with one of her best singles, Blowin' Kisses In The Wind. The UK mystifyingly didn't bother releasing it in favour of lesser tracks. Hey ho. I had to buy the album to get it when I only really wanted the single.

 

Jesus Jones' 1990 hit is also back due to US success, that's Real Real Real! Ditto Chesney's The One And Only, Karyn White's Romantic, and a few new tracks pop in: Genesis' No Son Of Mine, a not bad newie at 66, INXS' Shining Star at 69 and Kirsty MacColl's All I Ever wanted.

3rd November 1991

 

It's 3 weeks on top for T.Rex, giving Metal Guru a run as long as first time round in 1972, presiding over a chart full of American chart hits, including some re-entries and returns for older UK hits - because I was still on holiday in Florida listening to US radio in the motel room and in the car driving around theme parks - Disney World, Epcot, MGM, Universal Studios, Busch Gardens in Tampa, Kennedy Space Center, Cypress Gardens and lots of shopping malls looking for record stores to buy US videos and CD's, not to mention US TV to watch and be way ahead of the UK with episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Cheers, Married: With Children and other stuff I loved.

 

So, it's big climbs for Paula Abdul grabbing a top 5 for the first (and last) time with US-single Blowing Kisses In The Wind, and Roberta Flack back in the top 5 18 years on since Killing Me Softly did that first. Lisa Stansfield reaches a new peak with Change, and Seal brings Crazy back into the top 10 a year on, due to Orlando radio airplay and US charts. The KLF return to the 20 with What Time Is Love?, 2 KLF oldies in the 20, Chesney climbs, and Voice Of The Beehive pop back in too.

 

Other brand new tracks include BoyzIIMen with a UK non-hit, It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday, one of their best records, at 23, Blue Train, a Nottingham band having US success at 31 with All I Need Is You, and Naughty By Nature at 53, with O.P.P. Extreme return with a new track, Hole Hearted, ditto Guns 'n' Roses with Don't Cry, and Aaron Neville with Everybody Plays The Fool. So, whatever was going on in the UK music scene was a mystery pending solving in the next week or two.

Yes I was disappointed it wasn't a UK single/hit right up there with Opposites Attract for me.... :(

10th November 1991

 

It was the end of the US holiday, and back to the UK and the new record scene both this week so a hectic chart led by a new entry at 1 for Mary Hopkin's Those Were The Days, the record that I was obsessed with in late 1968 when I started doing personal charts, so it's back on top 23 years on thanks to a new CD single EP from Apple Records, that had this track, Badfinger's Come And Get It (as written by Paul McCartney) new at 25, and Billy Preston's 1969 single at 33.

 

Chesney Hawkes belatedly makes the top 10, as it was sounding good on Florida radio, and new in at 9 another US track from Natural Selection, Do Anything. Genesis climb into the 20 with No Son Of Mine, Kylie does a soul duet with Keith Washington and a move away from the SAW dance groove, If You Were With Me Now pretty good at 27. Stevie Nicks 80's goodie, I Can't Wait, is back again, Michael Jackson's big new video and album debut enters modestly, Black Or White, for the moment.

17th November 1991

 

It's 2 weeks on top for 1968 chart-topper Those Were The Days, holding off Michael Jackson's new blockbuster Black Or White at 2 after a 48-place climb, while Bomb The Bass leap from 72 to 6 with The Air You Breathe and Genesis extend their top 10 hits to 13 years as No Son Of Mine hits 8. Kylie returns to top 10 status after the blip of Word Is Out, and highest new entry of the week - is not the classic KLF and eccentric Tammy Wynette collab Justified And Ancient which enters at 19: no it's Sonia covering the The Real Thing disco classic You To Me Are Everything at 7! I do love the twice-top-10 song, so I assume this was a pretty faithful cover, given I've not heard it in 30 years, I don't recall!

 

Seal also is into covers, his own Killer as it turns out, peeved he didn't a credit I expect on the much-better Adamski original, new at 14, Kate Bush covers Elton John at 45, George Michael covers Elton John at 72 (with Elton John, who had already gone top 5 with his re-issue of Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me in 1991 for me), Beats International cover Elvis Presley, and there are aslo some new actual songs: Belinda Carlisle new at 23, Do You Feel Like I Feel, the huge Stars for Simply Red at 61, Crowded House's great Fall At Your Feet at 75, Roxette Spending My Time, Happy Mondays Judge Fudge, Rozalla's Faith and OMD's Call My Name rounding off the less-well-remembered tracks.

'Winds of Change' <3. What a classic protest track that was. Funnily enough Scorpions have just released a new track to Spotify last week. I also am under the assumption they are on a few old bands to not lose any members too which is good of course. They did some other tunes.. 'Rock You Like A Hurricane' is stellar too and I like 'Send Me A Angel' as well.

Good to hear they are still active, I think Wind Of Change will always be an anthem of The Iron Curtain collapse in history reviews. I don't know those other songs - but then they had a very long career in Europe, not so much in the UK :o

24th November 1991

 

It's up 18 places to grab a 3rd KLF number one of the year, and Tammy Wynette finally gets a chart-topper 16 years after Stand By Your Man she's standing by the JAMMs Justified And Ancient. Total classic. That puts an end to Michael Jackson's chances of a number one with Black Or White, with Army Of Lovers new in at 5 with Obsession, for a 2nd top 10 of the year. Jesus Jones leap into the top 10, at 6, Seal makes it 5 top 10'sand Billy Preston returns to the top 10 22 years on with That's The Way God Planned It.

 

In another hectic chart week Midge Ure is new at 23, I See Hope in Midge having bigger hits in my charts than the UK singles chart, Kenny Thomas covers Force MD's nicely with Tender Love at 37, Right Said Fred bring on Jocelyn Brown for their best record, new at 42 Don't Talk Just Kiss, and The Other Two have a Tasty Fish outside of New Order for a bit. Tori Amos is Silent All These Years, M People ponder How Can I Love You More? while U2 have Mysterious Ways modestly entering for now.

3 number ones for KLF in 1991 Pop, a man of superb taste as ever. Always love a new entry for Midge Ure as well, legend by this era of course!

Thanks Steve, I hope you are feeling much better now and the dreaded Covid is easing and you're back to feeling OK soon! Take it easy in the meantime!

Good to hear they are still active, I think Wind Of Change will always be an anthem of The Iron Curtain collapse in history reviews. I don't know those other songs - but then they had a very long career in Europe, not so much in the UK :o

Probably didn't help that those two didn't make the top 40. I only knew Winds until my mum started playing other tracks of theirs lol.

1st December 1991

 

It's 2 weeks on top for the KLF & Tammy, 3 weeks at 2 for Jacko and Army Of Lovers at a new peak of 3 with Obsession. Belinda Carlisle keeps the 10's a-coming with Do You Feel, Badfinger go top again with Paul McCartney's Come And Get It 21 years on and Kate Bush takes Elton John's Rocket man top 10-bound 19 years on from Elton getting a number 2. Simply Red almost make the top 10 with Stars, and highest new entry is a dance cover of Christopher Cross' 1980 rockpop gem Ride Like The Wind, in at 16. Prince's title track off his album is new at 18, Diamonds and Pearls being a lot more play-listable than the previous 2 singles.

 

Shanice debuts at 24 with the fab I Love Your Smile, James are always Sound, new at 28, and Salt 'n' Pepa do a great cover of The Turtles wonderful You Showed Me, their 1969 US hit and UK flop, new at 37. Jermaine Jackson is back, with a title that sounds like a dig at his eccentric little brother, Word To The Badd, Slade end their chart run with Universe 20 years after Coz I Luv You, let's face it you can't get bigger than the Universe. Diana Ross is back in the slow ballad zone (yawn) but still charting 23 years on from her Supremes days in my personal charts, and Bryan Adams is on single 3 with the Robin Hood monster still refusing to exit the chart.

 

James Brown is back with his 1970 classic Sex Machine, Erasure ask Am I Right?, The Scorpions follow-up Wind Of Change, and Gary Glitter has another Xmas track out for his regular Xmas concerts. Ready To Rock? Always, but then we didn't know about the hard drive habits back then.

Yes it is pretty good, and top 10 calling :D

8th December 1991

 

It's 3 weeks on top for The KLF, with runners-up Army Of Lovers obssessed at not quite making it. Belinda carlisle keeps the top 5's coming, and Kate Bush makes sure that 13 years on she can still go top 5 too. Shanice leaps into the top 10 with her fab I Love Your Smile, Prince is all Diamonds And Pearls outdoing the first 2 singles from the album of the same name, at 8, and Extreme make it 2 top 10's in a row.

 

James almost make the 10, Sound! Nia Peeples, Salt 'n' Pepa climb fast into the 20, and the highest new entry is Nat 'King' Cole's classic The Christmas Song - the one about chestnuts roasting - at 28, 30 years on from this 1961 re-recording and 46 years on from his original version of the Mel Torme song. Not co-incidentally Natalie Cole also enters with her version of her dad's classic at 62, the first time ever (and last time) that a father and daughter charted with the same song but separately - Frank & nancy Sinatra, and Nat & Natalie having already done that on the same record.

 

Following the tragic death of Freddie Mercury Queen's The Show Must Go On is back at a new peak of 33, and Brian May also debuts with Driven By You, proving once and for all that he vocally is no Freddie. Guns 'n' Roses cover a Bond theme, and Live And Let Die (Paul & Linda McCartney's song) is new at 46, Vic Reeves cover of the traditional Abide With Me pops in after I see his Big Night Out and fun it was too, and the oldies keep on coming as the best songs from The Jungle Book get the remix mash-up treatment to chart 25 years or so late, when they should have charted first-time round for the Disney classic. Not least because singer Phil Harris deserved a hit, and Louis Prima should have gotten a chart hit - the 30's/40's jazz bandleader was the voice of King Louie, and his career pre-dated the chart. So, 50 or 60 years late he finally features on a UK chart hit.

 

A bunch of 60's veterans return with their latest singles, Cliff Richard, Tina Turner & Cher with her version of Love Hurts, a hit already for Nazereth and Jim Capaldi, Enya returns, Kym Sims debuts with Too Blind To See It, a goodie, and Frank Ifield bizarrely yodels onto the remix bandwagon and my childhood fave unexpectedly gets a chart debut almost 30 years after I was big on The Wayward Wind and I Remember You and his yodelling songs as a little kiddie. Simon & Garfunkel bung out an album track from 1968, Shaky bungs out an inferior attempt at another Xmas hit, and Pet Shop Boys debut at a mere 70 hot on the heels of their first-ever non-top-10 single, DJ Culture, with Was It Worth It? Neither of them show Chris & Neil at their best.
