Jon Cole, you are right. I got my facts a little skewed. By Christmas 1984 this song had dropped to no.6, by the first week of January 1985 it was at no.7. My basic premise however is correct: 1985 saw 3 different songs with the same title in the same year. Interestingly, only 5 songs with this title have ever been top 30 hits in the UK and one of the remaining two (Celine Dion in 1994) was a cover of Jennifer Rush's song.

We were in the final throws of the Cold War and wondering if they would nuke us or if we would nuke them. Reagan was taking about Star Wars.
