Making their second studio appearance and getting the show underway tonight but the tune was now at its peak.

(ALBUM TRACK) KENNY THOMAS – Something Special 

From his top 3 album, Voices.

(6) VIC REEVES & THE WONDERSTUFF – Dizzy 

A zany live performance, with Bob Mortimer too, and on their way to number one.

(19) QUEEN – The Show Must Go On  (video) 

Went up three more places.

(4) KIRI TE KANAWA – World In Union 

Performing the official song of the 1991 rugby union world cup, and it was now at its peak.

(1) BRYAN ADAMS – (Everything I Do) I Do It For You  (video) 

So, after fifteen weeks at number one, it seems there were still enough people out there who must have thought to themselves, 'you know what, I think I'll buy that Bryan Adams song I've been hearing for the past four months,' to keep it at number one for this sixteenth and final week!
