I Love #1's - 1979

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

A last ditch effort from East 17 couldn't dislodge Whigfield's Saturday Night from claiming victory with a massive 37 ticks last week, making the Danish mime artist Queen of 1994. And of course everyone loves Take That even though Sure was a bit of a rubbish single. This week we have another bumper selection for you. As many ticks as you like, for... 1979!

I am glad that Poptimism has not made one of the most common pop mistakes - that Paul Simon had something to do with Bright Eyes. The amount of times I've seen or heard it referred to as a Simon & Garfunkel song...

To be honest I don't like either man very much, but the mistake still annoys me.

All information above c+p'd from everyhit.co.uk! Hence presence of "Tubeway Army".

B-b-but Tubeway Army is 100% correkt! It always annoys me when ppl credit Are 'Friends'... to "Gary Numan". The contribution of the other two (esp. bass-player Paul Gardiner) to the Replicas LP is a key reason why it is so fab.

:-) It was meant to emphasis korrektness of everyhit (in most matters at least, they don't have Sex Pistols at No1 in 1977...)
