  1. Good Lord, what a great TOTP studio performance by Geri Haliwell. I mean this was not just signing, but pure entertainment, which is difficult to find this combination on the show, as the vast majority of performers on the show are singers but not entertainers!

    Two new entries at peak position further down the chart this week:

    No.22 Boney M vs Horny United with Ma Baker/Somebody Screamed. Good Lord, what was this combo all about? First single in 6 years since the re-mix of Brown Girl In The Ring got to a measly No.38 in 1993.

    No.33 Moby - Run
    Love Moby music, and now already 8 years since his debut single Go got to No.10 in 1991. Go Moby Go!
