Chart Controversy[edit]

The 'controversy' is garbage - nonsense. 'Angeleyes'/Voulez-Vous' reached No.3 in the BMRB Chart - used by the BBC etc. However, it is garbage to say that it failed to rise above No.9 in other Sales Charts. It reached No.5 in both the 'New Musical Express' & 'Melody Maker' Charts. I ought to know - I still have those Charts from that time! So, to imply that the Single caused 'controversy', by making the Top 5 in the BMRB/BBC Chart, just did not happen - it also reached the Top 5 in the other Charts.....82.22.122.117 (talk) 21:20, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the 'controversy' has been overstated, but there definitely was 'confusion' and Capital Radio did indeed comment on it, more than once on air. It seems it was a 'beef' they had that they found either interesting or annoying or both. As far as I recall now, I think the issue was more that the track had peaked at around #5 on most singles charts published at the time and had started to fall, whereas on the 'official' BBC chart, it continued to rise, going up to #3 the week after it had fallen to around #9 elsewhere. Being #9 and falling on a couple of charts, but being #3 and rising on another is worthy of note as controversial I would think, or at the very least, confusing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.128.162.70 (talk) 19:52, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
