Manics Top 50s - 2nd Dec 2021

Four more charts from 2nd December and first up is one of my Edinburgh queue and barrier buddies (and mystery Halifax gut puncher), who gives Door To The River its first number 1 placing, although apparently Golden Platitudes lost out on alphabetical order!

The Holy Bible takes the honours in the By Era chart, reaching double figures with ten selections.

Next it's Tolerate that takes the honours at number 1, with a top 10 chock full of songs which will be hoping to make it over the line and into the final 50.  Everything Must Go is the era that hits double figures this time, four picks ahead of This Is My Truth.

Finally we both have a chart and don't, at George's request I haven't yet published his chart as he is going to announce it in his own way in due course.  I do however have his top 50 for points purposes, which have fed into the overall totals to be used for calculating the final 50.

The chart did eventually arrive in the form of a unique medley of covers, see the link below!
