Yeah, that was the one, Ruth *clutching Guiness book of British Hit Singles*. It got to number 18 in March 1983. A number 32 and a number 43 later that year, a number 58 in 1984, and finally a number 47 in 1986.
LOL! The New York Doll's Grandparents - they really do look like that!

I'm suprised that that single only got to number 18. I thought it had got higher than that. Of couse, in those days, getting to number 18 was actually something of an achievement, and classed as a hit. Nowadays, no-one's interested unless you hit the top spot.
