Would one be the one announced for that week (ie what was played on Top of The Pops)
And the other be the actual sales in that week?
Given the two options. I have either "Sugar Baby Love" by the Rubettes, or "The Streak" by Ray Stevens. Both godawful songs....

I can't help but think
both might be better off now if they'd stuck to it.
