Tracklisting

 * 15 (AT): Siouxsie And The Banshees, 'Israel (LP-Once Upon A Time/The Singles)' (Polydor)
 * JP: 'This confusion caused by having two parallel charts is going to get even more confusing now. I mean, because we've got equal fourteen in the favourite records from 1982: and this comes about, very rare this, only the second time it's happened. The first time was in the All-Time favourites chart with number 49 equal.... Do you see what I'm talking about? What it means is that exactly the same number of people voted it first as voted it second as voted it third, and it ended up, the two couldn't be separated. So, this is the first of the two 14th equals from this year's chart. Are you with me? It's another one which, I don't really attribute it to Kid Jensen, but he certainly played it a great deal more than I did.'
