US #1s of 1989

on the bright side, the us did (barely) manage to be one of the few countries where the jive bunny single was did not go top 10.

my abuela loved it #GlennMiller

My critical faculties break down (even more than usual) when it comes to this era, but it's hard to disagree with many of your Hague-bound picks (notable exceptions: Animotion, Surface). Glad to see Donna in good-to-great because where else could that song have possibly shown up.

Thank you for prodding me towards my 255-song '89 pop hit playlist. My workday just became a shade less painful.

the number of Facebook commenters who've liked that dinky Animotion song astounds me.

That's all they need
That's all they ask for
To see you peeved

I'm not like in love with it but it's dece.

that's the one recorded for the movie where Kim Basinger plays an alien with a talking magic purse

Huh, I guess I never picked up on those aspects of her Batman character.
