  2. "Too many broken hearts" - Jason Donovan

    This video might be the best thing ever to come out of Beechwood in Victoria.

    Simple singalong tunes are the best. "Too many broken hearts" was written for Jason Donovan's voice, that's why it has a really small range, and that's why it's one of my karaoke favourites. Jason's limited range is further concealed by the backing vocalists, who basically carry the whole chorus.

  6. "Neighbours" also dominated the Smash Hits Poll of 1989, winning best non-music tv show.

    Jason Donovan (Scott from the show) won Best male soloist and Worst male soloist, Most fanciable male, Best-dressed, and Album of the Year for "Ten Good Reasons".

    From it, Jason's big hit "Too many broken hearts".

  7. "Too many broken hearts" - Jason Donovan

    The best 4.2 seconds of the entire show, the guitar-and-drum introduction. Then we get a video with Jason walking round the outback, standing on a mountain top, chopping wood, and locking eyes with a cute young woman riding a horse.

    After seeing this video, the Musician's Union wrote Jason a stroppy letter, because you're only supposed to mime playing the guitar if you can actually play the guitar. Ditto singing.

  8. For the 1989 Brits cycle, Jason Donovan was treated as a British performer, almost got nominated in "Best British Bloke" and "Best British Single".

    Would he have beaten the winner in either category? Doubt it; Phil Collins was too popular amongst the "great" and the "good" of the "industry".

  9. "Too many broken hearts" from Jason Donovan. Our Jase is in a white cotton suit, guitar slung over his back as though he's going to play that.

    Naaah, all we want is for Jason to find the camera, look through his foppish fringe, and make a million viewers go all a-googlie. The rest of us can enjoy the camera doing a slow pirouette round Jase during the chorus.

  10. Top of the Pops had upgraded its graphics system to Cypher, allowing full-screen animations and that ribbon effect.

    Notorious heterosexual Jason Donovan is "Happy together", and we're very glad for him. Jason's karaoke has improved since "Too many broken hearts".

    Jason was riding high in public popularity, the star of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat on the London stage, and sitting in for Simon Bates on 1fm's midmorning show.

  11. #TOTP In 1989 I was 17, which was waaaay too old to care for #JasonDonovan. Now it's a different story of course....

  12. I took this shot of #JasonDonovan some years back when I was covering a gig and working the pit, one of my favourite shots from over the years. #GigPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography
