The greatest songs to get to No. 2

[capt_birdseye]

What about Strawberry Lane/Penny Fields? Didn't that get held off the top spot? Also the Sex Pistols' God Save the Queen was kept off by Rod Stewart's Baby Jane.

Is anyone still there?

That's it now. The above songs are the only ones of note to 'only' reach the number two slot.

[HonaloochieB]

Hey Butthead, I said "number two slot".

Gnnnnr gnrrrrrr yuk yuk fnaaaaar.

[ratty]

Something was kept off number one by that song that goes "Some people call me the space cowboy"

Might have been Groove is in the Heart!

But it might not!

[HonaloochieB]

That was the The Joker by Steve Miller, ratty and it was earlier than Dee Lite's song, which got a mention in this weeks NME as one of the top 25 dance tunes.

But didn't it have a second release due to its use in a jeans advert/ film/ something? Very early 1990s at a guess.

[HonaloochieB]

I think you may be right TM.

Sometimes I'm such a pompatus. And there's not always love involved.

[Ted Max]

Chill, Maurice. I love your peaches. And have no plans to shake your tree.

TM, please only some people are aware of my pseudonym. What with the midnight toking and all that that entails.

Please treat it as 'need to know' only.

I live a respectable life these days, but the Gangster Of Love is still close to the surface.

The womenfolk of SE22 don't need all that.
