    Joseph gave us the old rules run for Someone You Loved a while back so we know for a fact that it did it on that basis…

    I think I worked out a while ago that from my estimates Blinding Lights did the whole Top 16.

     

    But anyway well done Wham! for being the first to do it officially!

    Quite random but why not! That’s one of Ariana’s better songs; deserved a higher peak. And love This Ole House - definitely has a lot more get up and go and quirkiness to it than most of the 1954 hits, and that’s the best version of it. :)

    Thanks as ever Gezza!

     

    Not a landslide then - only 40 between the Top 3. And 17 voters put Born Slippy in their Top 7 but it got almost nothing else. :o That’s probably my favourite dance record ever - just the most incredible stream of consciousness narrative delivered with an incredibly effective almost monotone vocal line.

     

    But Common People’s still a fab winner. I didn’t fully get it when I was 11 but my dad thought it was the best record he’d heard for many years.

    Sort of tempted by the Wham! offer but can’t help feeling that something else will come along. The Christmas songs will peak in the post Christmas week and Wham! will likely do only 40k or so after ACR in Christmas week. The lowest chart sale ever for the Christmas #1 as far as I can remember is 57k for Rockabye.

    BSS was one of my last cuts - I guess I decided that as I was only going to give it a few points anyway it was better to give them where they’d really be needed (eg Def Leppard haha). It is an all time great but I just don’t jump for joy when I hear it anymore I suppose.

     

    That’s a big step up in points anyway - almost 150 ahead of Children. :o

     

    I suspect there’ll be more 0s for Born Slippy than Common People and that will give Common People the win.
