Cruise1323 is counting down its All Time Top 10s!
We’ll spend all of October – and a little longer – putting our neck on the line with two Top Ten Countdowns every day across a huge range of categories.
Every day at 10am and 2pm we’ll count down a Cruise1323 All-Time Top Ten.
Every countdown is in a different category. There’ll be specific artists, eras, and nationalities. There’ll be quirky categories and serious countdowns that are sure to divide opinions!
If you miss one, come back here to check the count downs after they’ve been revealed on-air.
And whether you think we’ve nailed it or you can’t believe we made that song No.1 we’d love to hear from you! Just comment on the relevant Facebook post (embedded below or at the Cruise1323 Facebook page).
