Just four entries got my vote for 1990- Phil Collins, Mariah Carey, George Michael and INXS. There were a few others I liked but not enough to vote. It depends on my mood and for 1990 I was very picky. For some strange reason the links for the older polls are not clickable and I don’t know why, I do what I always do when making these polls. Strange. ---

I picked _Nothing Compares To You_ and _Praying For Time_ but _Opposites Attract_ and _All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You_ are fun songs, too. ---

I picked “Blaze of Glory,” “Something Happened on the Way to Heaven,” and “Praying for Time.” “Step by Step” finishes in dead-ass last place in the world-famous **Ponch8 Music Rating System**.
