January 9, 20232 yr Looking forward to this! I started watching TOTP every week from early 1994, so there will be nostalgia for the performances as well as the songs. Soon to be RIP to the Breakers, but welcome back arrows on the chart rundown!

January 13, 20232 yr Author 15TH JANUARY http://jamaicansmusic.com/images/uploads/news/murdershewrote_10_03_13.jpg 1994 starts with a second week at the top for “Twist And Shout” though it sales ease just marginally to 66,000, it was never in any danger of being caught by the chasing pack, if you’re wondering where the album “Tease Me” is it’s being re-released in a fortnight and will include the track. x90NoBIW87Q It’s time at the top might be short however with D:Ream charging 10-2 (42,000) and East 17 continuing to inch nearer 4-3 (41,000). Highest new entry of the week comes from Culture Beat and their third release from “Serenity” entitled “Anything”. It follows the usual Culture Beat blue print and proves the adage if isn’t broke, the song gets off to a best start yet for them by debuting at No 5 (29,000). UOExN_-MVAY In cinema’s next month “Three Musketeers” stars Charlie Sheen and Keifer Sutherland, it also comes with an all star theme in “All For Love” which is sung by Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart, and Sting. The song is currently No 2 in the states and now debuts here at No 7 (25,000) instantly becoming Sting’s solo best outing ever but its Rod’s 25th top 10 hit and Adams’ 4th. It is also co-written by Adams and caps an excellent week for the Canadian who also celebrates his album “So Far So Good” finally making No 1 here although it doesn’t feature the new single. He is also now the biggest selling singles act of the 90s again having wrestled the accolade from Whitney Houston. ofA3URC1wyk K7 rises 7-4 (30,000) but heading south are Dina Carroll 5-6 (28,000), Bee Gees 6-8 (24,000) Mr Blobby 3-9 (20,000) and Take That 2-10 (19,000). 1- TWIST AND SHOUT- Chaka Demus & Pliers (66,000) 2- THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER- D: Ream (42,000) 3- IT’S ALRIGHT- East 17 (41,000) 4- COME BABY COME- K7 (30,000) 5- ANYTHING- Culture Beat (29,000) 6- THE PERFECT YEAR- Dina Carroll (28,000) 7- ALL FOR LOVE- Bryan Adams/ Rod Stewart/ Sting (25,000) 8- FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS- Bee Gees (24,000) 9- MR BLOBBY- Mr Blobby (20,000) 10- BABE- Take That (19,000)
January 17, 20232 yr It wasn't mentioned on the show but Tease Me was the UK's 700th number 1. Do you mean Twist and Shout? I am confused.
January 17, 20232 yr Not the bestest top 10 when the song I like the most is the Sting/Rod/Bryan :D It is a good job a saviour arrives next week then ^_^

January 18, 20232 yr Do you mean Twist and Shout? I am confused. Sorry my mistake - I meant Twist and Shout by Chaka Demus and Pliers was the UK's 700th number 1.
January 18, 20232 yr Love D:Rream, don't care what anyone says :wub: The way it's going, there's a chance it might be my birthday number one :o I love it too but it does remind me of John Prescott bobbing along to it at party conference!
