Love Shack is my favourite though I also like Dirty Cash & Groove Is In the Heart.
Fog On The Tyne - bad at the time, still bad.

My favourites are:
Alannah Myles - Black Velvet Paula Abdul - Opposites Attract Kylie Minogue - Better The Devil You Know Madonna - Hanky Panky (knock it as much as you like, because it's supposedly a 'novelty' due to the 'spanky' factor, but the production is fantastic as are Madge's vocals )DNA & Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner Kim Appleby - Don't Worry I think with the benefit of hindsight, Kylie's BTDYK should have been a number one. What kept it at bay? |

Justify My Love without a shadow of a doubt - a classic and I have all the remixes.
Talk to me - tell me your dreams Am I in them? Tell me your fears Are you scared? |

From that list i'd say Justify My Love (one of her best), Hanky Panky, Better the Devil You Know and Love Shack.
I also love Kyiles 'Confide in Me' and Steps 'One for Sorrow'. Both criminally kept from #1

Better The Devil You Know by some distance. SAW finest hour (just beating 'What Do I Have To Do') and it launched Kylie post-perm, when her hotness acheived super-nova status.
Or Dee-Lite, just cos it's a fantastic track. |

Love this year....my last year at Junior school and starting secondary school....so all these songs I remember being in the chart....like pretty much all of them bar Status Quo.
If I had to choose it would be between Groove Is In The Heart or Better The Devil You Know (Kylie's best song) (Don't Worry, Love Shack, Justify My Love, Nessum Dorma, Opposites Attract, Black Velvet....on another day could have been my reply) There were some great No.1. singles this year (Dub Be Good To Me, Nothing Compares 2 U, The Power, Killer, World In Motion etc.)....plus others that didn't make the top 2 like Hold On by Wilson Phillips, U Can't Touch This by MC Hammer, Praying For Time by George Michael and Enjoy The Silence by Depeche Mode. |

I remember everyone one of these songs except for the Status Quo one as for some reason I have absolutely no recollection of this song (or part 2) ever being in the charts. But looking at the YouTube clip it looks like it was a kind of Jive Bunny style song with lots of different songs mixed together. My favourite out of the list is Dirty Cash, Better The Devil You Know and Opposites Attract (but mainly for the video). |

"Groove is in the heart" and "Hanky Panky".
I also listened to "Love Shack" and "Opposites Attract" a lot. |

Guess I'll go for Dee-Lite, though due to my allegiance with The B52's I guess I should have gone for Love Shack and probably would have had it not being hijacked by the masses and turned into a novelty song.

Kylie- let's forget about the cover by Steps which brought NOTHING to the song

Better The Devil You Knoe - Kylie is my fav from the lsit.
I also bought Love Shack, Opposites Attract, Hanky Panky, Groove Is In The Heart, Don't Worry and Justify My Love (which runs Kylie pretty close for my fav no.2 of 1990). |

Feels like last week this chart remember it so well, was 17 and starting my first job also great times, prob my fave year ever for music.
Going for Dee-Lite as i never get bored listening to it as most of the other songs listed tbh. |

lol I used to like that paula abdul song when I was a kid. the technotronic track holds some nostalgia for me.
in retrospect now I think I will have to go for 'groove is in the heart' |
