Bucks Fizz. The U.K.Singles 1981-1983. Pick Your Favourites.

[Tommy Johnson]

Sad to say I can't include every single as the poll only allows 10 options.

Still, we've got the majority of the hits here.

Pick as many as you like.

Feel free to practice Jay's 'sexy' scowl as you're voting!

 

[Eric Generic]

Voted. Turns out I picked every alternate choice from the list (1, 3, 5, 7, 9)...strange!

 

[Pop Gaz]

Of course I should check all, however, as per these other votes I've restricted myself to 3.

Camera, well is just perfect isn't it, I was so happy when it crawled it's way to #1 after the first two #1s which could be considered "novalty" in many ways, this was them just doing a bloody great pop song.

If You Can't Stand The Heat, love the intro, and that musical line that continues throughout, great harmonies (as usual) but it's the lyrics of the chorus that have always got me, clever, but also a bit silly.

Young, well it's been getting a lot of love round here, and quite rightly so, it was a real step up in sound, visuals, and was actually cool for a band that really was fundamentally uncool. Of this era I preferred Rules Of the Game, but this is still totally top tier Fizz.

Thanks for the thread again @Tommy Johnson!

I need acts who've had 10 or less hits to do polls on here!

THE Camera Never Lies??

What no New Beginning (Mamba Seyra)? Shame on you Mr Johnson!

As a relative newcomer to the Fizz I went for The Land of Make Believe (always loved this), If You Can't Stand The Heat (just an amazing pop song), Run For Your Life (fast becoming a favourite after seeing the TOTP performance) and When We Were Young (just epic and such a musical progression for them).

Rules of the Game remains my favourite single overall.

The way things are going Hand Cut will soon be a favourite album of mine.

Remind me again why we're not married?

I'd have loved to include all the singles. Flops and everything! But the polls on here only offer 10 options. It's quite annoying!

Run For Your Life...hands down (as opposed to cut).

You can vote for more than one...?

There was a Bucks Fizz singles rate on PopJustice a few years ago: http://forum.popjustice.com/threads/bucks-fizz-singles-rate-1981-1991-winner-revealed.35238/ (although the video links in it no longer work).

'If You Can't Stand the Heat' will always be my personal favourite. I've got the 12" sleeve in a frame at home (it hangs in the kitchen, of course)!

Thanks for the reminder and the link, I've book marked that and will enjoy reading through again.

I've just realised that there are exactly ten further singles from the Fizz (excluding You Love Love and that awful remix single - none official cannon for me)... anyway, just saying....

If you can frame the sleeve, put it up in the kitchen..........
