IT'S HERE.

NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A POP BANGER!

23 OF THE BIGGEST POP HITS OF ALL TIME!

INCLUDING: BRITNEY SPEARS! LADY GAGA! JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE! ONE DIRECTION! KELLY CLARKSON! and MANY MORE.

So come inside. And join us in our contest as we (TRY) to rate and point some of the biggest and best pop numbers of ALL time! The only rule is, the artist has to have a forum here on Buzzjack.

Although, due to making it a BIG event, we ran a poll to choose one "Wildcard" artist to enter and KELLY CLARKSON was the winner! She beat out other Buzzjack faves Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande to earn the right to enter the contest as the equivalent to Australia entering the Eurovision Song Contest! She won with more than 38% of the vote and is no stranger to being a Buzzjack fave as she has a very strong fanbase here on BJ. So much so, she had her own AF at one point (then Joao left and seemingly took the AF with him :') )

CONGRATULATIONS TO HER!

So what to do?

Rate each track in a Eurovision style points system, send them to either http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=5042 or http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=19931 and we shall reveal the results at a later date. It's that simple.

The only rules are:

- Rate each song using the following points system:

18 Points: FAVE
15 Points:
13 Points:
12 Points:
11 Points:
10 Points:
09 Points:
08 Points:
07 Points:
06 Points:
05 Points:
04 Points:
03 Points:
02 Points:
01 Point: LOWER FAVE

- You MUST vote in FULL. No giving just 18-07 points. I'm sure you can make up an order of the songs you don't like, you must surely like one more than another etc... If you don't follow this, your vote will NOT be counted.

---

Now to the songs that you will be scoring!

01. The Saturdays - Higher
02. P!nk - Just Like a Pill
03. Miley Cyrus - Party In The USA
04. Sugababes - About You Now
05. Destiny's Child - Lose My Breath
06. Take That - Rule The World
07. Elvis vs. Junkie XL - A Little Less Conversation
08. Madonna - Like A Prayer
09. One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful
10. Rihanna - We Found Love
11. Britney Spears - Toxic
12. Justin Timberlake - Rock Your Body
13. Will Young - Jealousy
14. Katy Perry - E.T.
15. Glee - Don't Stop Believing
16. Girls Aloud - Biology
17. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
18. Leona Lewis - Run
19. Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers
20. Robbie Williams - Let Me Entertain You
21. Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone
22. U2 - With Or Without You
23. Little Mix - Touch

We're in a world where music is accessible and easy to find. So if there's one or two you don't know, I have created both a SPOTIFY playlist and a YOUTUBE playlist.

https://open.spotify.com/user/johnjo07/playlist/21quQJPqYxI0BORqhsJiX0 | https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR8D-qkeTvM_NMOZIsrBdrwIYdmJmbP8S

You're Welcome!

DEADLINE Friday 31st March 2017. 11:59pm GMT. With results to come that weekend!

We hope you can make at least one of them!

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 16 2017, 07:58 PM

And we are OPEN!!!

I've been listening to the playlist and it's near FLAWLESS. OMG.

Posted by: AdamAloud Mar 16 2017, 08:00 PM

Bloody hell, what a STELLAR line-up *.* Gonna be near impossible to vote!

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 16 2017, 08:09 PM

I'm SO excited about this.

Posted by: Tyler Mar 16 2017, 08:46 PM

Holy shit. This is going to be impossible.

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 16 2017, 08:57 PM

Already voted!

Posted by: UltraGreenLight Mar 16 2017, 09:08 PM

Will vote later! Miley/Kylie/Kelly/Gaga/Girls Aloud to all slay hopefully!

Posted by: liamk97 Mar 16 2017, 09:21 PM

That is an incredible line-up of songs. *.* Quite excited to listen to the playlist!

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 16 2017, 09:24 PM

I genuinely thought I wouldn't be giving points to a couple of songs, but after listening to the playlist, I think I've changed my mind! Robbie, I'm mainly looking at you!!!!!!!!

Now, I have to find an order! Eek.

Posted by: JosephSharman Mar 16 2017, 11:24 PM

Voted!! Actually not as difficult as I expected but there are some incredible songs here

Posted by: Jay 🙋🏻 Mar 16 2017, 11:31 PM

Also voted! Loved so many of them and I feel bad about 3 of the songs I had to give nothing to.

Posted by: Scene Mar 17 2017, 02:35 AM

Difficult vote but done!

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 17 2017, 10:37 AM

Every artist has points now! Nobody is going home with nil pwa.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 17 2017, 10:48 AM

Although, I'm side eyeing a few people who got me to go with Justin's choice, but not scoring it any...

I could've gone with 'Mirrors' and given it close to top marks myself RYB is nowhere near my fave JT song </3

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 17 2017, 10:53 AM

cc: Jay

Posted by: Jay 🙋🏻 Mar 17 2017, 11:09 AM

And none for Justin Timberlake, bye 🙋🏻

(It was one of his songs I was most likely to score, but there's sooooo much strong stuff here that it ended up 17th in my rank )

Posted by: Cameron Mar 17 2017, 11:18 AM

Justin not sending Mirrors. DISGRACE

Posted by: lotita Mar 17 2017, 11:34 AM

VOTED

Posted by: Scene Mar 17 2017, 12:11 PM

Mirrors can do one. Rock Your Body

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 17 2017, 12:17 PM

Same

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 17 2017, 01:54 PM

I am really pleasantly surprised at how well 'Touch' manages to seem like a classic amongst all these long standing classics! Really impressed tbh!

Posted by: Mart!n Mar 17 2017, 03:43 PM

Voted

Posted by: Tyler Mar 17 2017, 05:47 PM

JUSTIN NOT SENDING SEXYBACK IS DISGRACEFUL. Mirrors would be my second choice. CMAR, third.

Posted by: Tyler Mar 17 2017, 05:47 PM

(I hope he flops, soz Jon.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 17 2017, 09:08 PM

Tyler is no longer busy!

So you http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?act=Msg&CODE=4&MID=67, if you wanted to!

Posted by: Jade Mar 18 2017, 01:19 AM

Voted! there were three songs here that are in my all-time top 10

Posted by: Tyler Mar 18 2017, 04:56 AM

I know I shouldn't have kept you waiting... but, I'm here now.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 18 2017, 09:20 AM

Tbh, I hope he does too, Tyler (but I hope he doesn't as well just coz it means my forum has done well). I like RYB, but I've never got the mass adoration for it! Neither does BJ from the votes so far! #Oops (But I am NOT taking the blame for this one!)

12 votes in and I can EXCLUSIVELY reveal that ONE song has at least 1 point from every voter so far! Are they all low or high scoring points though? And will it continue!?

Exciting.

Posted by: troublepink Mar 18 2017, 10:38 AM

Voted Some great tracks in that list

Posted by: Qween Mar 18 2017, 03:44 PM

So many artists here with amazing discographies, represented with songs far from their best.

Posted by: Tyler Mar 18 2017, 04:11 PM

Who do you find guilty?

Besides Justin... obviously haha.

Posted by: Cody Slayberry Mar 18 2017, 04:27 PM

literally every forum except for gaga and the glee cast, maybe 1D, mks and riri too

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 18 2017, 04:35 PM

Just so people are aware: 'Cry Me A River', 'Wrecking Ball' and 'Bleeding Love' weren't eligible (due to being sent to past contests!)

I think the forums have got it on the mark for the most part tbh. Especially Madonna! 'Like A Prayer' is one of the most iconic pop songs of all time, no? Also, Leona's only other option is 'Run' (after BL, so bang on choice there too). I'd argue a case for Kylie (but I far prefer ATL over the options so I'm extremely happy with that looool).

Also, it was between BOMT and 'Toxic' for Britney, either of them cannot be questioned for this contest, imo. Take That's option was definitely 'Rule The World' too. No way would 'Patience' or 'Shine' have done much for them and with Little Mix, I can definitely see cases being made for 'Black Magic' and 'Shout Out To My Ex', but I think 'Touch' is definitely making it's way up there as their classic! It's got broader appeal and it surprisingly fits in with the classics that have been chosen in this contest!

Posted by: Qween Mar 18 2017, 04:48 PM

Madonna, Kylie, P!nk, Katy, Little Mix, Kelly, Take That, Miley, Robbie and Rihanna (though I realise on this one I'm very much in the minority hating it). Leona, The Saturdays, 1D, U2, DC all got it spot on though and Sugababes, Gaga, Will and Girls Aloud are very good choices.

Most forums have made the best strategic choice, though, so I will give them that. That's especially true of Madonna, even if she has about 20 better songs.

Posted by: Addy K!ng Mar 18 2017, 05:07 PM

Lose My Breath...really?

I don't know in what world you heathens live but Crazy In Love, Irreplaceable, Single Ladies, Love On Top and Drunk In Love are Beyonce classics...

Posted by: Addy K!ng Mar 18 2017, 05:14 PM

I had so much trouble separating my top 4...I think I love them all equally

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 18 2017, 06:27 PM

Did y'all complaining actually vote in each forum's votes for what song to send?

Some of them are stragitic choices I agree, some are more risky. Toxic is far from my favourite Britney song but it's the only sensible choice (or BOMT).

Posted by: Conderella Mar 19 2017, 08:25 AM

Voted. What a great bunch. Great call using the 18 OBF voting system instead of the Eurovision one as it would be impossible to leave some of the songs out.

Posted by: Andrew. Mar 19 2017, 03:42 PM

Voted. Still fuming the Rih forum chose 'We Found Love' when Diamonds (and others) is sitting there!

Posted by: Jay 🙋🏻 Mar 19 2017, 04:13 PM

Would you still be fuming if she actually won with it though ;o

Posted by: Andrew. Mar 19 2017, 04:24 PM

She won't if BuzzJack show's any taste ;o

Posted by: UltraGreenLight Mar 19 2017, 04:27 PM

I'll be voting later and providing commentaries on every single song!

Some choices are utterly perfect. Some choices are actually laughable.


----------------------------------------------------


Also is the Plug session tonight?!

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 19 2017, 04:27 PM

Yes, I just came to post about that. It's at 9:30pm now, if people can make that?

Posted by: UltraGreenLight Mar 19 2017, 04:28 PM

that's probably perfect timing! very likely I'll be able to make at least most of it! <3

Posted by: AdamAloud Mar 19 2017, 06:48 PM

Voted, was such an amazing group of songs!

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 19 2017, 08:33 PM

One hour warning until the listening session kicks off!

Toxic 13 mehs?

Posted by: WallIsSoGood Mar 20 2017, 08:05 AM

It will be ridiculous if 'Touch' gets anywhere near the top 10.

Posted by: Tyler Mar 20 2017, 08:23 AM

Haters be jealous because we won twice in a row.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 20 2017, 10:02 AM

Nah. I think it was meant to read 13 Woots 0 Mehs!

Posted by: Nick F1 Mar 20 2017, 04:33 PM

oh, it better be like that!

voted, some really awful choices

Posted by: OutstandingMixer Mar 20 2017, 05:15 PM

'About You Now' and that Glee shit to flop please!

Posted by: liamk97 Mar 20 2017, 07:21 PM

Voted! My Top 3 was set in stone but there were a few surprises, like my 5th favourite was one I didn't expect to appear so high when I was ranking.

Posted by: Conderella Mar 20 2017, 09:38 PM

AYN is absolute garbage indeed.

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 21 2017, 10:11 AM

Up to 31 votes, keep em coming! The winner has changed numerous times.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 21 2017, 07:31 PM

FFS.

Posted by: Jay 🙋🏻 Mar 24 2017, 03:58 AM

Posted by: Tinasha Mar 24 2017, 03:49 PM

48 votes! can we get it past 50 by Friday?!

Posted by: Scene Mar 28 2017, 01:08 PM

Wow so many *.*

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 28 2017, 01:50 PM

We haven't totalled the scores yet and I honestly have no idea who is winning! So many 18's pretty much all across the board! Exciting!

Posted by: Dmdr Mar 28 2017, 09:32 PM

Well that proved tough.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 29 2017, 01:17 PM

With less than two days left (I shall be doing a 24 hours left promo blitz later tonight!) we have hit the 50 mark!

Also, we haven't totalled the scores as of yet, but just as I was thinking we have a clear winner, these last 4 or 5 votes have pulled out some surprises in their votes! Certain songs getting much bigger scores over some of the early big scorers!

I'm so excited for this!

Posted by: Laura130262 Mar 29 2017, 10:59 PM

Voted

Posted by: Cremey Mar 29 2017, 11:20 PM

Voted. So many good songs, although I wouldn't often choose to listen to many of them!
Disappointed in the Miley and JT choices, but I didn't vote in them so I can't really complain haha. JT is one of my favourite artists out of the selection but Rock Your Body...nah. I loved it at the time but really not keen on these days for some reason!

Posted by: Emperor Silas Mar 29 2017, 11:26 PM

I'm coming after whoever meh'd About You Now.


I shall be sending votes soon-ish. First time voting in AFSC. OOOPS.
