Captain Sensible - "Happy Talk" --- Wow! You can really tell this a UK chart. "Happy Talk" was a blip in the north american video world but I don't think it made much of an impression on the music charts.
Might as well try to put Cliff Richard on the American charts.

Ward ------------------------------------------------------------- I knew there was a reason I'm one of the few people who can enjoy listening to Men At Work  But, when I click to see the top album through all my birthdays, it gives me a different one as being #1 on my BIRTHday which I think is more deserving of the honor of being associated with me anyway  : Eurythmics - "Touch"My 5th birthday saw one of my favorite 80s pop songs at the top of the charts: Tiffany - "I Think We're Alone Now" Of course, this is all in the UK, so it doesn't really apply to me
