Buzzjack's Favourite No 2 of The 90s
Spinning the wheel is a good song, which almost made my rates. The Fortnight remix is better than the album version.

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1993
What's Up is a classic. It won't be the last classic hit Linda Perry writes.

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1993
Break it down again -Tears For Fears. Good song it passed me by in 93 but discovered it some years ago after getting their Best Of album.

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1993
George Michaels version of Killer on the Five Live EP is excellent. Like Freddy Mercury did at Live Aid in 1985, George's rendition of Somebody To Love at the tribute concert stole the show.

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1993
Don't Walk Away must have been deleted as looking at its chart run its out of the chart just three weeks after peaking 36-20-11-9-8-{7}-13-51 Which is a shame as it probably would have sold alot more

Were OCC right to reset 'Running Up That Hill'?
I can't help but wonder if it had been some novelty song whether they'd have done the same thing.

Buzzjack's Favourite UK No 2 Single Of The 80s
Holding Back The Years always reminds me of the episode of Only Fools & Horses when it is heard playing at Rodney's wedding reception. Classic song, Classic sitcom.

Classic 60s albums
I'd add Hits collection by The Small Faces, one of my favourite bands of the 60s. Other than their hits other good songs by them include Autumn Stone, Rolling Over and their version of Every Little Bit Hurts is the best version I've heard.

70 years of the UK’s Official Singles Chart
The OCC count the same songs twice because they count them as products due to the different label and/or catalogue number. It's all very business like for the OCC!

Buzzjack's Favourite UK No 2 Single Of The 80s
I'm surprised some of the songs I voted for are still in and surprised by the ones that have gone out! Glad I kept McCartney from nil points.

Worst Number One ever - the 1980s shortlist
What about Doctor in the Tardis by Timelords ? I know this is early KLF but it does include the use of a Gary Glitter song.
-
Worst Number One ever - the 1980s shortlist
I'd nominate Japanese boy by Aneka to be added

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1992
I think House Of Love is East 17's best song, much prefer it to Stay Another Day. The story of 1993 is on next week and we haven't even reached the end of 1992 yet :o

Could the OCC ever lose the rights to run the charts?
The OCC are losing their rights from April and Iam taking over! :lol:

Worst #1 ever - 1952-1979 shortlist
To be fair Lonnie Donegan was one of the leading pioneers of rock n roll, it's not an exaggeration to say if it weren't for him The Beatles would never have happened. I know Dustman is a comedy song but imo I wouldn't add any of his other no.1s.
-
Worst #1 ever - 1952-1979 shortlist
The only one on that list id take off is Chirpy Chirpy Cheap Cheap it's a bit of a guilty pleasure for me! Other than that the rest are not good. Even though I've never heard some of the very early ones but stuff before 1955 was generally not very good anyway.

90s Top 10 Sales- Week By Week- 1992
Don't you want me is a banger, so long since I heard it forgot just how good it sounded. Just another day is good too. I like Barcelona aswell and I'm not usually a fan of opera but Freddie is fantastic as always.

Classic dance singles
Alot of the best disco from acts such as Earth Wind & Fire, Chic, KC & the Sunshine Band etc was sampled / covered alot in the 90s. Some of my faves you may not know are- T Connection Do what you wanna do Brass Construction Movin

On This Day 40 Years Ago
Nice song but I prefer the b-side Situation, which became a hit in 1990.
