Posting on Saturday for a change, because the date is Monday and it's a
Bank Holiday weekend. I almost posted it on Good Friday because one of
the tracks is called Passion...
Anyway, this isn't a really topical chart, I just picked a year in the
90s I hadn't done for a while. But if you're ever a contestant on
Pointless, you'll find some potentially useful answers here, in the form
of obscure hits by very well-known acts.
You might also note two versions of the same song in the Top 10, two
versions of the same song that had previously been Top 10 together, a
track that was going to be a Top 10 hit later in 1996 and a Top 5 hit
that was left off a best-of album in 2020.
I promise that song title at 67 isn't a typo
Playlists are here, and I've had plenty of time on my hands to look for
the appropriate single versions.
