Johann: As for "which year?", I file my stuff using the Joel Whitburn/Billboard books. He lists "So Emotional", "Seasons Change", "Hazy Shade Of Winter", "There's The Girl" and "Could've Been" as ALL reaching their chart peak during 1988, although they probably first came out in the final weeks of 1987. Some interesting additions nonetheless, my friend.

I thought chart debut was the criteria, not peak, sorry! : )

I understand your point, so is this in your opinion a remix then?
