I chose Roxy Music  :)

This looks like a good varied selection of hits.

Not a vintage year for #1's - there was some much better stuff that didn't reach the top...

From this...Lennon ('Woman'), Specials, Soft Cell, Stewart & Gaskin (very odd, but it worked...) and Human League...

I chose The Police and Human League...here in the US they both spilled over into 1982 :)

The Joe Dolce Music Theatre - Shaddap You Face, does not deserve any votes for what it did to Ultravox!

It's not Joe's fault.  It's those who bought more copies of the single than Vienna.  THEY MUST DIE  >:(

;D
