Found this on the same page where I have "borrowed" the German Top 20, chartservice.de .
To quote U2´s "Still Haven´t Found What I´m Looking For", I´m still searching for the complete UK Top 40, but this is also quite interesting.

Darn you Wave :mad: I was going to post the top 40 British charts. :lol: I guess I can start on album rock, modern rock, R&B, Country and AC charts in the US then.

Why being that upset, Daffy - you can still post the positions from #2 - #40. :lol:

Would be cool if you will post the UK charts - it´s easier to find the Lithuanian charts in the Net than the UK ones. ;)

What are we talking about? A top 40 from each year or all songs that were in the top 40 at some point during each year? :)

Good Luck In your quest Wavemaster, I've been tring for months to find a site which sows the weekly Top 40 UK charts throughout the eighties. But unfortunately I have had no success.

I found a site which used to do it, but they said that they had been forced to remove it as it broke the Official Secrets Act, but I can't understand why that would be.

The closest thing I could find was a web-site which showed in chronolgoical order the date a band entered the chart, the band, the song title and it's highest position.

The site for this is:

Eighties UK Music (http://www.martinsmusic.freeserve.co.uk)

If you have any success finding the complete charts, I would be very grateful if you could let me know.

Martin's site is quite okay. I discovered it about a year ago or so - I often use it for reference! :)

Hmmm..I have (I think) a link to a site that lists top 40 songs from France, Germany, UK, etc. but I just need to work out where I put it (which computer).....

I guess the UK top 40 will be my next undertaking. I will do it just like the US charts I posted. The UK charts are kinda weird, it was not unusual for a song to chart many times. I'll start soon.

Thanks tcm for that link - it´s very useful.

Yes, I have also stumbled over that other site which had to take the content offline. Guess it´s more a matter of money than anything else... :mad:

Kayenne...the only problem on posting the German Top 40 is that they simply don´t exist. The German Top 20 are based on private surveys, since Media Control is only issuing the weekly Top 100 - for a horrendous price (they have raised the fees about 10x in 2001!). So, for private users, it´s too expensive to subscribe to their service.

Ooops. I didn't see the link, never mind I don't need to post these. Thanks TCM. I have a hard time finding links on this new boad cuz they aren't a different color anymore. Either that or I'm just an idiot :D

They are if you set your style template to '(default) light blue' :D Just go to your options section in the user cp...it's right at the bottom...

My boys only had four number one hits in the UK? I completely forgot that they had a christmas hit in 1987. That was a very cool list. Thank you Wavemaster. :)

Only one number one hit for New Order? And that is the one with the English football team. Does anyone know how well Blue Monday did?

I am glad that I just voted that chart positions means nothing to me.

Sara, here are some singles chart positions for New Order that I know of. Hope it helps :)

Bizarre Love Triangle #56 UK 1986
Blue Monday '88 #3 UK 1988
Ceremony #34 UK 1981
Everything's Gone Green #38 UK 1981
Temptation #29 UK 1982
Touched By the Hand of God #20 UK 1987
True Faith #4 UK/#32 USA 1987/1987


To answer your question from the other thread, as far as I know, "True Faith" was the only single New Order had in the USA Top 40 [edited; see my post in the other thread regarding where I must have stopped my research].
