Oh my giddy-aunt! These Retro Charts get worse! There is precisely one tune on there that I love unreservedly. Three others that if they were on my car radio, I wouldn't turn off. But the rest of them - I'd rip the radio/cd player out of its casing and throw it out the window.

what was that 1 song? and how many of the others do you know? (and therefore might like)

True, very true! There are about 10 songs there that I can't actually recall.

 

Try and guess the one I like the best (it shouldn't be too hard).

 

I'm off now to watch the last 20 minutes of All About Eve (seen it about 50 times already but what the heck!)
