That was a number picked by Joey for exaggeration. It's 4.

The Buggles v Blondie fight is fascinating. Up and down, up and down and usually ending up back level. Not for now. Anyway, suspect both are doomed, the question is really can Tragedy dislodge the top 4? I can't remember whether 4 or 5 are going through here...

I like Night Fever a lot more than Tragedy.  It has atmosphere.  

Is the popularity of Tragedy down to the Steps revival?

Both are toss.

 

And as for the question of do I mean Night Fever and Tragedy, or the Bee Gees and Steps, the answer is yes.
