Follow up to my last post, compare:
Top US Singles of 1988
Top UK Singles of 1988
The former contains lots of pop fluff, standard rock and hair metal. The UK list, while not devoid of Whitney Houston and Phil Collins, has Theme from S'express [YouTube], Pet Shop Boys and the Timelords [YouTube], fer KLF's sake!
And these were just the number ones.
Is it any wonder I was a teenage anglophile?
