Whitney Houston - One Moment In Time I know which one I prefer! :P Actually it was: BJ: 1st Pet Shop Boys - Heart 2nd Pet Shop Boys - Left To My Own Devices 3rd INXS - Never Tear Us Apart 4th Timelords (aka KLF) - Doctorin' The Tardis 4th Kylie Minogue - I Should Be So Lucky 6th Morrissey - Suedehead 7th Inner City - Good Life 7th Terence Trent D'arby - Sign Your Name 9th Taylor Dayne - Tell It To My Heart 10th Prince - Alphabet Street 10th INXS - Need You Tonight UKMix: 1st Guns 'N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine 2nd Michael Jackson - Man In The Mirror 3rd Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal 4th Tracy Chapman - Fast Car 5th Enya - Orinoco Flow 6th INXS - Never Tear Us Apart 6th Def Leppard - Love Bites 8th Michael Jackson - The Way You Make Me Feel 9th Guns 'N' Roses - Welcome To The Jungle 10th Whitney Houston - One Moment In Time Funnily enough (in this instance) I prefer the UKMix Top10 as I only dislike Whitney Houston's Olympic song; whilst the BJ Top 10 contains awful singles by Kylie & Taylor Dayne and I was never fussed over the Inner City track. Mind you 1988 was a rubbish year for music whichever way you want to look at it.

January 20, 200817 yr I think those top 10s are proof enough that we should all avoid UKMix like the plague :blink: .... from that top 10 it seems to be like a gathering of old 80s big hair American rockers to me. Not nice. :P But at least we know who's voting for (thankfully) forgotten embarrassments like Def Leppard, Scorpions and Dio.....
January 20, 200817 yr But at least we know who's voting for (thankfully) forgotten embarrassments like Def Leppard, Scorpions and Dio..... Def Leppard - they are v comic - let's get rocked - always p*** funny as its so cheesy but i dont think the joint def lep / whitesnake tour will be calling at the comedy store do you :lol: tho in some instances (like balls of fury below and other 80s refing recent comedy films like hot rod) because its american cant work out if things like def lep and john farnam were being used ironicly for comedy value or being used because the creatives behind them like really really love this stuff (watch old american pre-nirvana teen flick and it seems to be the alternative music of choice) weird?? http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/focus_features/balls_of_fury/dan_fogler/balls.jpg
January 20, 200817 yr 1. Tiffany - Could've Been 2. Expose - Seasons Change 3. France Gall - Ella elle l'a 4. Samantha Fox - Naughty Girls (Need Love Too) 5. Rick Astley - Together Forever
January 20, 200817 yr I'm with russ, stadium rock should well and truly stay padlocked in the 1980s (and long live house music!!!). 1988 was a great year actually! Top 5 nominations: 01 Inner City - Big Fun 02 Raze - Break 4 Love 03 Coldcut + Yazz - Doctorin The House 04 Morrissey - Everyday Is Like Sunday 05 George Michael - Father Figure
January 21, 200817 yr I'm with russ, stadium rock should well and truly stay padlocked in the 1980s well at least there is a handy definition for Coldplay and Snow Patrol to get them away from indie and alternative music cultures
