Did the list update?
I notice below you said "More Than Words Can Say" would be 156 but I see it onthe list as no. 86
The list updates regularly. That is what the version numbers are for.

what about us?? olá..+
hi great website you've here...most complete from web, congratulations.
nevertheless, in the future,if possible, can you sirs include the Portugal/Portuguese chart?
thanks.
If we had any source for Portuguese charts from before 1990 we'd use it
Do you have any suggestions?

Czechoslovak/Czech chart
In 1990, Czechoslovakia began in the first year of freedom after the fall of communism. So I wonder if you're somewhere on the Internet have come upon something like the Czechoslovak official chart? I wonder what songs is then played in our country, unfortunately find nothing on internet like this... only can find Czech chart from 2006.
We've looked and also can't find any Czech chart from before 2000. If we could we would add them to these lists.

Spelling Correction
The title of Enigma's song at #5 is Sadeness
We've seen it called "Sadness", "Sadeness" and "Sadness (Part 1)". However your spelling does seem to be the most widely used one. The name has been fixed
Thank you for the correction
