While researching ’80s music for The ’86 Fix, I was surprised to see how many one-hit-wonders appeared in the UK charts during 1986. Now, I love ’80s music so perhaps I’m biased but it seems like 1986 was a vintage year for one-hit-wonders in the UK. However, with such a broad, and eclectic choice, which one was the best? I asked a few friends and every one of them gave me a different answer and none of them chose my personal favourite.
In an attempt to settle the argument I decided to ask my followers on Facebook – cue an a lively and interesting debate (you can view it here). The playlist is below, together with the original Facebook post if you’d like to weigh-in with your opinion…
NOTE: Amazingly, Just Say No by the Grange Hill Cast doesn’t appear on Spotify so I’ve substituted it for the original theme tune.
