I actually like that Diana Ross song too.

ETA: I call shenanigans (yours is in September 80, mine is August 80). No way the same songs could be number one for like 3 weeks across the three countries... could they?

[Viq]

US - MacArthur Park - Donna Summer
UK - Rat Trap - The Boomtown Rats
AUS - Three Times A Lady – The Commodores

Never heard of any of this shit. 11-19-78 must have been a bad time for music.

MacArthur Park is actually one of the songs that frequently places high, or wins (loses?), when magazines like Rolling Stone make lists of the worst 50 songs of all time. It's truly horrible.

For me:
US - Islands in the Stream - Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton
UK - Uptown Girl - Billy Joel
AUS - Karma Chameleon - Culture Club

[gairaiden]

all night long- lionel richie US
uptown girl- billy joel UK
