30 Years of Number Ones in Aus, UK and US for the week ending 12 October

I thought it might be fun to make a number one hit list for the past thirty years for each week. If people show interest it will become a regular feature. If you want me to go back further just tel me how far but I can only go back as far as charts were made! Or give me a date and I'll let you know the songs for Australia, UK and the US.

Very cool Rihanna video you've probably never seen.

Is she beautiful? Undoubtedbly. Does this photo make her look both innocent and sexy? Absolutely. Can I share a little secret with you? The more observant of you may have noticed already.
