Ac
h well, I tried... but in the end, as the tape drew near, I decided I was a bigger man than that, why should I deny them their little stab at glory, that entry in the Guinness Book Of Records?

So, the most popular track, Pushy, comes (unsurprisingly) from the Lost Horizons period.

The most voted for .ky track slips in at Number 3, but the most popular tracks from '64 - '95 don't make their joint appearance until Number 7, alongside a couple of equally popular .ky tunes.

Overall, .ky tracks seem to be twice as popular as those from '64 - '95, and Lost Horizons about 3 times more popular.
