Manics Top 50s - 31st May 2015 part 1

So yesterday was deadline day for the top 50s and as with last time we had a massive 12 on the final day.  I've split it into two separate blogs so it isn't too unwieldy.  Will it be significant that four of these charts have the same number one?  Does that represent a late push for the finish line?  Let's see how the other half of the charts on deadline day went a bit later on......

Unfortunately I wasn't able to accept one chart from @Aerodax of "Autumnsong x 25 Australia x 24 and A Design For Life".  But it was a nice try.....and that's two more songs than he normally offers.

The last chart of this section was obviously equal to the others in its own right but was also significant for giving a vote to our last no-vote album track, as with last time a remarkable feat that someone somewhere has love for every single one of them!  More to come......
