We've had a Lion and a Tiger at No1 during 1982.

I only know the one about people relieving themselves on train station platforms.
Must say that episode was rather more distinctive for me than normal because I listened to it on surround sound speakers for the first time. "They pushed that girl in front of the train Took her to the doctor, sewed her arm on again" http://www.lyricsfreak.com/g/grandma..._20062225.html |

I can never make my mind up whether Glittering Prize or Promised You A Miracle is my favourite Simple Minds song. It usually depends on which one I've listened to most recently.
I also love speed your love to me (in 1984)? Which has a an amazing chorus and manages to be epic without being pompous. After Speed, I don't think they managed that

Well i was going to watch "The good old days" but I reckon it's now Bowie for me!
Cheers I only managed six, but could've got a couple more with a bit more time to think. That guy was very good. |

What about the difference between a "chart entry" and a "new entry" then? I only noticed this while watching nowadays and it never registered with me at the time.

Well a pretty average show tonight - but after seeing the later edition I'll be giving it a definite 7/10!

How did you do?
I only managed six, but could've got a couple more with a bit more time to think. That guy was very good. If i was to appear on Mastermind my specialist subject would have to be "Simon Bates 1980-82". |

I think they classify a chart entry as a song that's climbed from a position outside the top 30 into the 30, whereas a new entry has literally gone straight into the chart as a whole that week.

It seems like we're speeding towards 1983! Culture Club and Musical Youth could be on the show by next Friday, and Tears For Fears must be very close to appearing.

Wow, I didn't realise that maudlin Dire Straits song got that close to the No1 slot.
How can Clare call it the worst No2 of the 80's? ![]() Certainly very different to their other No2 hit Walk Of Life in early '86. |

Surely you'd have to inadvertently give all the wrong answers.
![]() The one i always remember with Simes was when he was introducing The Sugarhill Gangs 'Rappers Delight' and he just said "and now we have The Rapper". No mention of the song title or name of the act at all. Just left for the audience to guess |
