In the first batch of results, we lose 4 tracks by each artist! For the most part they're not really too surprising, especially the bottom 3. Cannonball is cute, but it was used and served it's purpose as a coronation single & Word Up! is about as fun as you would expect to come from a tongue in cheek charity single. Por Favor really was a huge misfire. So bland. It's disheartening to see that that was their last single as a group </3

 

I'm In Love With A Monster misses out on the bottom 3, just. It's alright, serves it's purpose as a soundtrack single and that's it. The biggest surprise for me is seeing Down so low. I know it wasn't a massive hit and I know there was some sort of lukewarm reaction to it, but I thought it'd get closer to the top 20 tbh. Gutted tbh, coz although it's a watered down Work From Home, it still bops! Little Mix's buzz single ( :D ) Bounce Back fails to ignite the rate, to no ones surprise. A bop, but it's not a fave. Little Me becomes the 4th Little Mix track to fall out. I didn't think/imagine it'd do THIS poorly, but I won't say it's not deserved. It's one I rarely ever go back to. Miss Movin On is RIDICULOUSLY under appreciated. SUCH a good, anthemic, pure pop song. I really wish people gave it more love </3

Miss Movin On is the best to go so far

21-25:

 

 

21. Little Mix - Think About Us 7.13

22. Little Mix - How Ya Doin'? 6.7

23. Fifth Harmony - BO$$ 6.6

24. Little Mix - Change Your Life 6.52

25. Little Mix - Woman Like Me 6.5

Before we reach the top 20 we lose 4 Little Mix singles and just the sole Fifth Harmony one. The huge marmite hit, Woman Like Me kicks this section off at #25. A huge hit for the girls but a very divisive one! Seems to get a lot of flack, but also seems to have quite a fair amount of love. Change Your Life ends up falling out at #24. This song never seems to do that well in these rates and things, it's a shame coz it's actually pretty cute. BO$$ is a feisty, uptempo and fierce pop song by 5H. It was the first of their singles to chart on a WW scale. It was a very short lived hit, but it was very welcomed. I'm kinda bored of it by the time the song's finished nowadays, but I do lose my shit to it sometimes! How Ya Doin'? finishes in 22nd place. A song I've only recently come fully around to. I actually think, ironically, this 90's throwback track, has aged pretty well and bops pretty majorly! Up next is the "was it a hit, wasn't it a hit?" Think About Us. As generic as it is, this really pops off! Every performance of it has been brilliant and seems to be improved each time. I wish it was a bigger hit for them, but it was a cute minor hit for them!

'Think About Us' higher than 'Woman Like Me'? No me gusta!

16-20:

 

 

16. Little Mix - Wings 7.41

17. Fifth Harmony - All In My Head (Flex) 7.37

18. Fifth Harmony - He Like That 7.30

19. Little Mix - Only You 7.19

20. Little Mix - Hair 7.18

Into the top 20 and we start things off with Hair one of the girls earliest "remix" versions with a rapper, following Missy on 'How Ya Doin'?', this time they managed to get the help from legendary reggae rapper, Sean Paul to give us an infectious, cheeky and catchy pop song. The video is SO much fun too! The underrated Only You manages to out do my expectations and finish inside the top 20 at #19! I was not expecting to see that above in the top 20 tbh! I assumed about 22-25. Very pleased though. It's a banger. Up next at #18 is my personal favourite 5H song He Like That. I honestly believe they'd have been in a far stronger position had they launched their last era with this instead of 'Down'! It's exactly what I want from them and the James Corden performance was the first time I believed in them as performers! I'm disappointed and upset that it missed the top 10, let alone top 15! At #17 is the follow up to their biggest hit (Work From Home ofc), All In My Head (Flex). It was a decent sized hit for them and is very catchy. I love the reggaeton vibe. And finally for this section we have Little Mix's very first single (after their coronation single) Wings. One of their biggest hits and a song that seems to be remembered pretty fondly amongst fans, but also seems to get a bit of flack for sounding a little dated nowadays. It has aged pretty poorly imo, but it still bops and it's a song that clearly means a LOT to the girls.

'Woman Like Me' being that low is criminal. I don't think I'll ever understand the relative disdain towards it versus their other leads.

I agree. I also expected that and OY to switch places just about! But I'm not mad about OY in all honesty. I love it!

He Like That outdoing my expectations

It should’ve come dead last tbh.

 

Hands down the worst single they’ve ever ever done just dreadful and I’m a huge fan of the girls.

Yeah wtf?

Hands down the worst single they’ve ever ever done just dreadful and I’m a huge fan of the girls.

 

Omg this

It should’ve come dead last tbh.

 

Hands down the worst single they’ve ever ever done and that's really saying somethin!

 

100% THIS

I swear if that awful work from home comes near the top...

11-15:

 

 

11. Little Mix - No More Sad Songs 8.12

12. Little Mix - DNA 8.08

13. Little Mix - Shout Out To My Ex 7.97

14. Fifth Harmony - Worth It 7.68

15. Little Mix - Secret Love Song 7.52

At #15 we have Secret Love Song which, ngl, I expected to see higher. Such a beautiful song and one of the best ballads of this Decade, let alone a girl group ballad. One that the girls & their LGBTQ+ fanbase hold very close to their hearts. The video ended up disappointing people, due to the nature of the song lending itself so well to an LGBTQ+ story, but ended up with the girls walking around LDN and Jason dancing in his apartment... Such a mis-match (even if the cinematography and girls looked stunning). If you ever experience them live, Jade will 100% give a little speech beforehand and it's always so genuine and sincere from her. A babe. Next at #14 is Worth It by Fifth Harmony. A song which, although I bop to, gets irritating pretty quickly. But it's cute and was their first UK hit! Shout Out To My Ex falls out next at #13, which may surprise casual members, but for some reason, SOTME gets a pretty extreme opinion from most people (one way or the other :lol:). It's a banger though! At #12 we see their 3rd single DNA fall out. It's becoming pretty underrated on here! A song that always deserves better in these types of things and just missing out on a top 10 placing is, for me, their best song. No More Sad Songs was always a huge highlight from their Glory Days album. The MGK remix is surprisingly strong too! I don't know what it is specifically that provokes such a reaction from me, but whenever it comes on, I just can't help but smile and bop my heart away! Such a good song that doesn't deserve to be one of their lowest peaking singles </3

The top 10:

 

Black Magic

Love Me Like You

Move

Power

Reggaeton Lento

Salute

Sledgehammer

That's My Girl

Touch

Work From Home

 

Any predictions?

Any surprises?

Surprised to see 'Sledgehammer' in the top 10 over 'Worth It'! :o

I'm surprised by both That's My Girl and Sledgehammer making it over that tbh. I'm also quite surprised Reggaeton Lento is top 10 too!
