I think I remember seeing that video on a top 100 worst number 1s thing on a music channel.

I pretty much thought 'How can something so incredibly epic be on the top 100 worst list?'.

And there were so many epic (and not so epic but memorable) songs in 86 as well!

If my mum had held me in for 2 more days I would have been able to choose "spirit in the sky"! Or even better "take my breath away" or "the final countdown"

This thread is terrifying, and not just because of Rod Stewart's September 1975 'masterpiece' that's begging to be played under here. I remember so many of the tunes you lot were born too. I liked a lot of them as well.

Ahh, the summer that never seemed to end... At least Bryan Adams kept Right Said Fred off the top slot.

The first record that I was ever given as a gift. That track still haunts me to this day.

Apologies for the sprawling post.

The ONLY way that Spitting Image is beaten, is by this track:

"We come in peace, shoot to kill, shoot to kill!"

Epic.
