State of that list.
Went with The Human League as that was the least offensive option.

I hear the goats listen to that whilst tucking into a turkey dinner.

Just had a look at the 90s list on Wikipedia, definitely doesn't look right. Wonderwall sold well over 1 million but isn't in that list.
Novelty songs and charity/Christmas tunes are always going to dominate these things sadly.

According to Wikipedia it sold 1.34 million copies which would put it at 11th anyway.
The reason its not on the list is that it was never a number 1 single in the UK.

Being number 1 has nothing to do with it. Last Christmas was never a number 1 but makes the 80s list.
Wonderwall might have sold 1.34m copies, but I assume it didn't sell all of those copies in the 90s.

Interesting, it seems like there's some dispute over the figures from the 90s on that list anyway due to changes in the companies providing chart figures.
Anyway this is mentioned, but I guess isn't relevant...
