I Love #1's - 1974

A thrilling conclusion to last week's number ones poll saw Ace Of Base pip 2 Unlimited to the 1993 crown by two votes. Unsurprisingly the large pink blob suffered badly. This week's poll is dominated by dodgy male singers but sprinkled with pop gems nonetheless. Don your sparkly blue caps kids, it's 1974!

[Poll #867293]
*For some reason I left BOTH of these off the 1975 poll! Shocking, isn't it.

Hmm, good question. Possibly I would have, but fortunately it is not particularly good.

In fact, it's the only song I didn't tick! High %age of ticks is mostly down to fond associations with the charts at the time. This is very much "my era".

Yeah, I'd tick "Rock And Roll Part 2" if it was a #1, easily.

But "Always Yours" is rub.

It's going to be weird writing about GG, but interesting.
