De hoogste nieuwe binnenkomer is Vaya con Dios van de Cats op nummer 26. Dawn komt binnen op nummer 50 met een nummer met exact dezelfde titel. Brandy van Looking Glass verwelkomen we op nummer 34 in de Top 50, een prachtig nummer dat in Nederland slechts beperkt succes zal hebben. Terry Dactyl oftewel Jona Lewie is deze week de kanskaart van Ferry Maat met de Seaside Shuffle. Kom uit de bedstee is blijkbaar opnieuw uitgebracht in 1972, Leo van der Goot koos ‘m tot kanskaart.

Deze Top 50 kun je hier beluisteren:

Uur 1 Uur 2 Uur 3
