Human League have an instant top ten hit, their fourth in total so far. They are surely looking at grabbing a third chart topper soon?

Duran Duran are back in the top ten and could be headed for a battle with Human League for the top after the success of their last two singles.

Yet again Tears For Fears move the wrong way on the chart despite still gaining. They are only just nudged out of the top two!

Which means Hall & Oates score their second retrochart #1 with a surprisingly tight margin given they are top three in four retrocharts! Next week's chart topper is anyone's guess!

Chartfile w/e 20th November 1982
The top ten is very exciting at the moment. Abba only lasted one week at the top as Hall and Oates have taken pole position with "Maneater". Climbing inside the top ten this week are Duran Duran, Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney, A Flock of Seagulls and Marvin Gaye. The highest new entry is at Number 6 for The Human League and "Mirror Man" Dionne Warwick is stuck at Number 4 with "Heartbreaker" - heading down are all former Number Ones: Abba, Tears For Fears and Culture Club. Who will be the next Number One? Stay tuned!
