July 20, 201212 yr thisispop's TopTunes #1's 1984-1999 :yahoo: :cheer: :w00t: :dance: OK I've always threatened to do this.... Between 1984 & 1989 I did A Personal Chart which is where this data is from. I did not do a Personal Chart in the 1990s, but based on the charts at the time & what singles & album's I bought I have retrospectively compiled this. On this opening thread I will post what my Personal Chart #1's were as I produce this: Please feel free to comment.
