Some incredible songs in here, Lights always feels like it was a top ten but I guess in my mind it always feels a lot bigger than it was because Debenhams used to hammer it all the time (and wasn't it quite big in the US, or did I dream that?).
Annie and The Pipettes <3 So much love reserved for many more too and a handful I don't recognise that I'll look forward to hearing. Of Corrs I was never going to send anybody else though... |

Cameron, I LOVE that song, excellent choice. And MCR finally in a BJSC too
 I guess even if this does involve some well-known names it'll be fun at least (and hopefully not TOO obvious in the way it pans out because there are a few songs that are clearly at an instant advantage).

Always funny how they both charted similarly, yet are both very well known.I know a fair few here but a decent amount that I don't as well. JUSTICE OMG  That's one of my faves but never knew/remembered it was eligible for this, I may have tried to send it myself otherwise! (Great choices from Taahino and Cradannet as well <3)

I'm pleased with the inspiration of some of these entries actually, of course we have the supercheap (Ellie Goulding, MIA, Jessie Ware etc) but also some songs most people probably haven't heard of, and for a chart themed spinoff I'd say the cheapness isn't too high overall.

Lights is going to win. Completely forgot about it and probably would sent it if I did.

I'm thrilled I got D.A.N.C.E., I confirmed late and thought it would've been one of the first ones confirmed. One of my absolute favourites of the last decade.
Very nice entries all around, Ellie Goulding and Jessie Ware are obvious shoe-ins for the Top 5 but I can see Annie dark-horsing this. |

It was absolutely massive in the USA! Top 5 in the end of year chart IIRC (and peaked at #2 on the Hot 100), still by far her biggest hit over there. I think it has sort of become well-known here as well as a result even though it never became a hit itself. Excellent debut entry from Cradannet <3 |

A couple of great songs in there, I can tell from my first look at that list of songs that It's going to be hard to arrange my top three or so, excited to give this a listen through
I so nearly sent Move Along, so I'm happy to see someone else confirmed it!!

Yeah, I hope "Lights" doesn't win. There's a reason it didn't chart top 40...

Oh wow, some great songs here! Including a couple that I was slightly considering sending - Ladytron's Sugar and M.I.A.'s Bad Girls

Great to see Ladytron here - I was toying with entering “Destroy Everything You Touch” (which charted at 42).
Sad that nobody entered the theme tune to Postman Pat or “Driving In My Car” by Maureen Rees.
