Rich	Bumped up for the benefit of MCR, or anyone else interested in some alternate retro entertainment this Christmas and New Year holiday.

There would be a lot of repetition with most songs remaining in the chart for several weeks and only a few additions each week. I feel for him when he gets to 1991 and he has to endure Bryan Adam's "Everything I do a do it for you" 17 weeks at number one, let alone all the other weeks in the chart. 1984 was a shit year from memory in both pop and metal. 1984 is widely regarded as one of the best years ever in popular music, and I agree, up there with the best. This guy playing all the charts is remarkable isn't he. Just discovered the archive on Mixcloud and he's up to 1994 now.

Andy	What a great idea. I'll be checking some of that out. Thanks for the heads up. When he finishes he could consider doing the American Billboard Hot 100, which I believe started in 1940. That will give him more than enough to get stuck into for the rest of his life I should think.
