NOTE: With the exception of the Predictions, the survey does not list
artists. The artists shown above are a best-guess by Australian survey
collector, Ray Sinclair, based on his knowledge and research of the
Australian radio charts of the artists who released these singles at
the time of this survey. Several of the songs listed may have been
recorded by multiple artists which was a common practice at the time
of this survey.
