    I think I beat ye all in terms of true yuchness!!:

    Lionel Ritchie & Diana Ross: Endless Love
    Shakin Stevens: Green Door

    But then again what can you expect. The charts were terrible then and are still terrible now. I mean Steps knocking U2 off the No.1 postion? Come on. For the love of sanity.

    Day I was born, John Lennon tracks all round - Imagine was No. 1 in the UK, and Just Like Starting Over was No. 1 in the USA.

    I think I was born on pretty much the only day in the eighties with any taste wink.gif

    Micro... I don't have one... it was nearly 4 years ago that I got engaged... some time in December '96 (I think), and it's all in the past now.

    So it could have been...
    "A different beat" by Boyzone in the UK
    "Unbreak my heart" by Toni Braxton in the US
