I'm just going to do a top 20 as I felt stretching it to a full top 25 was starting to include a few songs that I really don't care much about at all.
(I've also decided to vote based on the original of 'Blue Monday' because all of its sales are combined anyway, I don't think I specifically know the 88 version but it'd feel wrong to exclude it from my votes especially with how much I was scraping for the last few positions) +25 Move Your Feet +24 Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) +23 Hey Boy Hey Girl +22 Blue Monday +21 The Hills +20 Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough +19 Doctor Pressure +18 Take Me Out +17 American Idiot +16 Castles In The Sky +15 Physical +14 No Scrubs +13 Return To Innocence +12 Budapest +11 Voulez-Vous +10 Whatever +9 Mad World +8 Kickstarts +7 Who Do You Love Now?

Blue Monday is an interesting one. It's one of my favourite songs but I didn't vote for it in the first round as I don't like the 88 remix. It did really well in the first round so I'm assuming people are voting for the 1983 original. As you say, the sales in 1988 would have included the original if that was also available in the shops so I suppose it's alright for this poll to be based on that version. On that basis, I gave it 25 points in my own semi-final vote.
I will still accept any overnight votes. This post has been edited by King Rollo: 8th February 2021, 12:21 AM |

Interesting... I didn't realise it was a later remix that had reached #3. So I did indeed cast my vote on the assumption we were voting for the original

If we're basing it on the original then I'll definitely be voting for it in the final, I also just don't care anywhere near as much for the 88 version. After receiving so many votes here i checked out the new order track, was quite underwhelmed by it. Obviously I can't say what it's like to hear it for the first time in 2021 but it's an incredibly important track in the history of electronic music. |

I counted 31 different songs getting at least one voter's +25 points, so at least six of those will miss out!

Results
54. Angry Anderson - Suddenly 82 pts Writers - Angry Anderson, Andy Chicon, Kevin Beamish Top points - Mango 25, DarrenJ77 24, Campbell 19 A one hit wonder that took off after being used for the wedding of Scott and Charlene on Neighbours which was watched by 20 million viewers in the UK. The song was chosen by Kylie Minogue after she was offered some choices. Angry Anderson is still the lead singer of Rose Tattoo, a rock band formed in 1976. Scott and Charlene have not been seen for many years but they are still together and have two grown up children, both of whom have been regular characters on the soap in recent years with neither of them lasting long. Suddenly was actually played again when Daniel first appeared in his camper van. This post has been edited by King Rollo: 8th February 2021, 06:36 PM |

52. Madonna - Rescue Me 103 pts
Writers - Madonna, Shep Pettibone Top points - vibe 23, dandy* 22, marcinjaro 15 No video was made for this one as it was never intended to be a single.

Rescue Me is far too low, it’s always overlooked in her discography

I don't think I have ever heard any of the songs that are out so far (or at least I don't recognise them by name).
