Most Popular Song in the UK Each Month of the '80s

In Australia we got music from the UK, Europe, US, Canada & more - plus our own amazing artists. It was a terrific time to be a teenager ❤

Molto bello il video io sono un tuo grande fan

74%

Michael Jackson was by far the number one most popular artists through the late 70s and early 80s it's impossible that he was not in any of your videos. What happened to the Whole Decade of the Disco era

Some of these songs were downright horrible and no way were they most popular

George Micheal ❤

Late 1982/Early 1983 is when the 80s really began

How is it that brits have so much better taste than Americans

Could umake this whole play list and put on cds 4 me love it thank u blast from the past xxx

The most successful song on the US Billboard charts in each month please

No Michael Jackson number 1 song in the UK in the 80's hard to believe

As much as I wished it, Vienna never got to number 1. It was held off by Shaddap your face.

No New Order?? Morrisey? Depeche Mode?

55 of these songs deserved it. Not bad.

A lot of big 80s number ones missing from this

The music of these videos may not be to everyone's taste. If we all liked the same thing, the world be a boring place. SRG puts a lot of hard work into these videos we see.

December 88 is utter shit

Whose selection was this, obviously not all the number 1's of the 80's.

828

Where was ABBA Super Trouper?

To be honest, US list was much better :/

The best decade in music♡♡♡. Whenever I feel down about getting old I remember that I was a teen in the 80s lucky enough to have grown up with this music and all is well again.

This is when music really started to go downhill and has remained the same ever since. But you are entitled to your opinion.

Duran Duran Reflex what an absolute banger 👊

Four from Madonna, but no
MJ or Prince.

That's a lot of effort to go to for a RickRoll.

👌😎

Queen Ultravox and Adam and the ants the first three vinyls I ever owned and I still have them 42 years later

Thanks for uploading this. Out of curiosity how come you didn't play the A side to Working My Way Back To You? Also does anyone know what grandma the choir is talking about in the December 1980 song? I'm surprised there was a tie for June 1988.

Danke! Du bist ein Schatz! 🥰🥰

It all started to go downhill after April 1986... Stock Aitken and Waterman!

Super Trouper ?

Gotta love the Pet Shop Boys

Many memorable songs, so many huge hits between '83 and '86!!
Turning point in music and fashion in '88/'89 😉

You could take this list, with a few localisation differences, and it would be identical to Australia's at the same time. So it sure brings back some memories of some wild times.
Thank you for your hard work SRG!

I remember hearing many of these songs here in the US when I was growing up. This music makes me proud to be an '80s baby and an '80s kid!

Okay then! Reminiscing through this list again having lived through the decade for me it peaked in 1984 and got progressively worse by the end of the decade where I was glad to see the changes in the early 90s! Haha!

Jive bunny and the mood ? NOOOOOOOO it was in 1982...... i was 10. I do remember it cause of a party with my family

Music was just better then...Thank you Random, you make the best music vids:)

TOTALLY rad list!!!!😊😊

Yet another excellent compilation SRG 👌 what a decade of music 🎶 👌

My favourite decade for music, great video
