Just realised you meant what was number one directly after PSB, not what was their next hit.
Could be anything!

I’ll have a stab.

11 - wimmera1 - Touch Me (I Want Your Body) - Samantha Fox

Edit: crap that’s a year early. At This Moment? The Final Countdown?

Any context in the quiz I’m missing?

I still maintain that 14 - The Human Menagerie is correct. I have the album and it was Cockney Rebel’s first.

What was big around then?
Hair metal. Whitesnake, Posion, Guns n Roses…
Maybe INXS, Bros?
Is it too early for NKOTB?

Trying to remember what song annoyed me most around that time…

Don’t Worry Be Happy?
