The clear favourite at the start, Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' topped the pops in 1989 with 39 ticks. Cor! 'Ferry Cross The Mersey' on the other hand, got fewer ticks than either of the Jive Bunny megamixes, oh dear. Today's year was so good, er... James Blunt wrote a song about it? Perhaps he was a big fan of G4ry Gl1tt3r? Behold! It's 1973.

But I really like glam rock, and yet I really dislike most of these. 1973 was just a terrible year for music, clearly.

Contrary to other posters, I think there's a LOAD of good stuff here and a few greats - I can't imagine liking glam rock and NOT enjoying the Sweet, Slade, Suzi and Wizzard records here, which together make up a lot of the chart.

I really did mean that they're not just on crack, they're swimming in it.
