I remember cutting out the posters and singing along to the song lyrics in the 80's! It's such a shame that Emap have decided to give it the lethal injection! When British pop ruled the charts, Smash Hits was its voice, its conscience and its sense of humour. It's weird that everyone seems be gutted it's closing, except for the people it's aimed at! The power of nostalgia!

Sadly missed all the same...
