PJOPS Retrochart w/e 07/06/80

But what can you do if pop lovers aren't passionate enough to vote for their favourites week after week?

(I'm just joshing of course, to goad more pop fans to join in the fun...)

Yes - we just need more PJers overall to contribute to make it even more interesting!
The Dead Kennedys will feature in my Retrochart later in the year!

Numan holds on for a 2nd week, but OMD and Lipps Inc are closing the gap; in fact, all the singles from #2 to #7 are on the rise. Six new entries, but the highest is at a lowly #30.

First up we have the follow-up UK top 20 single from the Lambrettas who made retrochart #25 in April during a 10 week chart run. I think this single packs a bit more of a punch and am hoping it can at least match its success? It's had a huge boost in its third week charted vaunting into the top 100 at #57 this week.

Breaking the US top 10 this week aswell as rebounding into the Retrochart is the latest offering from Elton John. This is the lead single from recent album 21 at 33 and looks set to be his biggest US hit in 4 years.

Although they formed 4 years ago this is only Iron Maiden's second single but is not included in their recent top 5 self-titled UK debut album. However, it is due for inclusion on the US release next month. The band are set to be opening act for band KISS on their european tour next month. The single artwork has already caused controversy as it depicts mascot Eddie, knife drawn, standing over Prime Minister Thatcher.
