mate of mine got hold of a collection of tracks titles Top 1000 Pop Hits of the 80s so i'm wandering through them at the moment, i'm hoping that out of 1000 tracks i might be able to find some tracks i like, but i'm up to E so far and i've really not found anything much yet. anyway, point is - it's got Bring Me Edelweiss by Edelweiss in there... which i know was mentioned on this list several years ago cos it was apparently written following (at least some of) the rules from The Manual. but i was under the impression it was from the mid 90s, certainly not the 80s. wouldn't surprise me - there's a load of tracks in this collection that i'm sure were early 90s not late 80s. -- --------------------------------------------------- -- -- illitrate Publicashions --- - jai@illitrate.co.uk - http://www.illitrate.co.uk/ - --- ------------------------------------------------- --- "if everything is all a dream; wake me" --Cloud Strife

oh right - i didn't think it was that old i take it back - maybe the other tracks in this list that i've dismissed as being from the early 90s were actually 88 and 89 cheers -- --- "Life is bigger, bigger than you and you are not me.

hmm, so i've just found 3AM Eternal in there, and i could have sworn that was definately 1990, no? or did it hit the charts at the end of 1989 or something? . -- --- I have seen the Future and this is how it begins: In chaos and riots, the screech of machines.
