For this last year of the decade, here's what made #1 on the "other" charts as well as this lot: - "Chiquitita" by ABBA (New Musical Express) - "Oliver's Army" by Elvis Costello (New Musical Express, Melody Maker) - "In The Navy" by the Village People (New Musical Express) - "Pop Muzik" by M (New Musical Express, Melody Maker) - "Dance Away" by Roxy Music (New Musical Express, Melody Maker) - "Silly Games" by Janet Kay (New Musical Express, Melody Maker) - "The Eton Rifles" by The Jam (Melody Maker) "One Day At A Time," needless to say, failed to reach the top of Melody Maker's chart.

I thought Pop Muzik made #1 on the main chart but apparently Bright Eyes kept it at #2.

The year I was born... A good year all round it would seem.

Where can I find the full video of that Police Message in a bottle video? I have never seen a drum mishap like that before.

I didn't even notice until you mentioned it, it's either a mishap or Copeland was off his head.

@@steveh31 thanks but that is a different video. Yes, you may be right about him being off his head.
