Between December, 1984 and October, 1985, three different songs with the same title reached at least #11 on the UK top 30 singles chart. Two of those songs reached number 1 in the UK chart. Both of the #1 UK records failed to crack the Billboard Top 40, but one of them reached #1 in Canada and several other countries, and that one reached #1 on the Billboard charts several years later, in a cover version by another artist. The song that peaked at #11 in the UK reached #1 on the Billboard chart. What's the song title?

Soft drinks in North America was more expensive in 1982 than it is today. Which company is responsible for the huge drop in soft drink prices in the early / mid 80s?

Answer :

In the early 1980, the price of popular brand soft drinks were $2.00 - $2.79 for a 2 liter bottle. Cott cola started to offer private brand colas and soft drinks to the big box chains. Brands like Virgin cola, Presidents Choice, Walmart cola, ect were all bottled by Cott. Cott is probably responsible for billions of dollars in losses in sales for the big soft drink bottlers.
