Great song from George, a fair placing.

Heart Skips A Beat is waaaaaaay better than this. It’s a bit generic tbh.

I’ve never ‘got’ Rock Me Amadeus. I can’t say whether I like it or not!

Always liked Grenade, great song.

Given the lower quality of 1986 number 1s, I’d have this higher than my 1987 placing.

Ahh Dappy and his No Eeeeegrets. Awful.

Heart Skips A Beat would be easily in my top 10. Best thing he did besides Dear Darlin’

And there is my bottom song at last. Awful slush. I am afraid I despise it!

More dirge from Example 😫

I always felt very ambivalent towards Pixie Lott. She’s very beige.

I still enjoy the Lighthouse Family. Gentler times!

Cher Lloyd? Disgustang!!

Sales for singles were not stellar in general for Indie bands like Pulp, the exception being Oasis of course. They were more album sellers.

That’s probably in my top 2 and yet the other bottom 2 for me track is still to come 🤪🤪

As choirs go, it’s not bad.

Yay Pulp! Glad they made the list.

I despise the Lazy Song. Awful awful awful.

Ahh now there is one of my bottom 2! Awful schmaltzy song.

Can’t stand Example, so good to see this out so soon.

Edge of Heaven is decent, I’d have it higher.

It’s a close run thing between the two you think it might be, they would be my bottom 2!

The song I have last hadn’t been revealed yet - eek!
