Though Careless Whisper was WHAM! That is like my favorite song ever.
I thought "Automatic" was by a man for years.

"Careless Whisper" was George Michael's first solo single, even though featured on a Wham! album. In the US it was credited to Wham! feat. George Michael, but in the UK (and the rest of Europe) it was credited to George Michael alone.

Grandmaster Flash of course has to do with all the hip-hop fans at ILM, but "99 Red Balloons" as the runnerup is madness!

But, Geir, the runner-up is a six-way tie!

I mean, it's a list full of great songs, and then a cheesy Europop number at number 2.

I wish the top 50 today was even remotely this good. What an amazing time for pop music that was.
