You could make a 1984 #TOTP 2 hours long and you still wouldn't have time to play all the good stuff

One of the most influential things about 1984 for me was it was the year I really began to explore all of pop music history, because I started searching out the original versions of some of the insipid cover version hits (is that a backhanded compliment to Paul Young?) #TOTP

This Steps song was the one that *every* X Factor audition hopeful seemed to attempt, just to prove they could manage the vocal range #TOTP

After more than 30 years of following #Formula1 I have decided that buried somewhere deep in the rule book there is a requirement that every so often a completely farcical race is required to take place #BahrainGP

I love the Hollies, and this 1988 hit meant I could see them on tour. I was still in my teens and they were an 'old' band yet watching it now they're a decade younger than I am now. How did that happen? #TOTP

Has anyone knocked up a pie chart with % of songs in this 1988 #TOTP by SAW?
