    It's weird though, I mean I've never even heard of Charlene, and it was a number one! What is it poppy crap or something?

    Yeah house of fun is classic, Madness were great.

    Remember Dustin released a píss take of it years ago- I've never been to Meath. At least I think thats the song.
    There were loads of dodgy No. 1s back then. Artists never to be heard of again.

    Yes.... Coward of the County- that was a real cracker!! :p

    Ahh seriously though, I remember some great ones too, Another Brick In The Wall is a classic, as is Suicide is Painless!

    I think though, Tainted Love has to rank as one of the best tunes of the 80's!

    Jesus, that´s nearly 39 years ago! In 1967 I guess it was "Massachusetts" from the Bee Gees.
