It's not much of a surprise to see we've lost the majority of Fazer tracks before we've even reached the top 30. I'd say he's the least recognisable or liked member of the trio, and his solo career has made a much smaller impact in the charts than the other two (he's still great though!) how far can the surviving tracks Killer and Fireflies go? thinking.gif I really liked Foot on first listen, giving it an 8.5 so it's a shame the majority of raters didn't join with me on that one nocheer.gif

Teardrop's success here reflects on the dislike ratio seen on its Youtube page, so again I hope no one is shocked that it's last here, with an average of a "not-too-shabby" 3.6. Its highest averaged paired both myself and Harry with only 7 no it's no big loss for anyone really biggrin.gif It is also the only loss Tulisa has outside of the top 30, but it's barely even that, as she is part of a group who called themselves The Collective in a charity campaign, which covered Massive Attack's song of the same name. The vocals can be a bit whiny and the song is rather pointless other than being a charity single. The original track peaked at #10 but with only 6 weeks in the top 75 and this version peaked at a quite shabby #24 and spent only 2 weeks top 75 laugh.gif

We lose 4 tracks from the trio in this section, but it's really only I Got Soul at #36 that's the significant loss here. Poor brave UV loses a 10 and me a 9. I just find it easy to sing along too. C'mon guys dry.gif
Harry also loses a 10 with Lose My Life at #40.

Finally we have Dappy who loses 6 out of 14 solo singles here. My favourite one in this section being I.O.U. I can certainly see the disagreement with this (and why it only peaked at #163 in the charts). It's kind of like Dappy is trying an Ed Sheeran kind of song, and I think it actually worked quite well! Very powerful lyrics, but obviously you guys are more for the exciting songs rather than singer/songwriter teas songs kink.gif

Still left:

Poor Fazer...

Those two covers are truly awful though, even if they themselves only played a small part in both.

Was going to post these tonight but doing them now as my headphones broke today so I've had to do my personal chart this evening and these results now tongue.gif

#21-30



  • 21. Killer 7.2 burbe (11), Dobbo (10), Spadz, Mack (9), Lee, Kuki Sanban (8) | Ultraviolence (2), SamJudd (3)
  • 22. Wouldn't You 7.055555556 Kuki Sanban (9), Dobbo, burbe (8) | Spadz (5.5)
  • 23. Fireflies (feat. Tom Parker) 6.833333333 Spadz (10), Dobbo (8) | Harry (4)
  • 24. Yin Yang 6.75 Dobbo (10), Spadz, Haus (9), Kuki Sanban (8) | SamJudd (3)
  • 25. Live Your Life 6.666666667 Haus (10), Kuki Sanban (9), Dobbo (8) | Ultraviolence, Lee (4)
  • 26. Sight of You 6.65 Lee, Kuki Sanban (9) | SamJudd, Dobbo, burbe (5)
  • 27. I'm Coming (Tarzan Part 2) 6.611111111 Mack (10), Dobbo, burbe (9) | Lee, SamJudd (4), Spadz (4.5)
  • 28. Who's the Daddy (Benny Banks featuring Dappy) 6.5 Spadz (8.5) | SamJudd, Kuki Sanban (5)
  • 29. Rockstar (feat. Bryan May) 6 more 9s Spadz (11), Dobbo, Kuki Sanban (9) | Ultraviolence (-1), Lee (3), Mack (4)
  • 30. So Alive (Skepta vs. N-Dubz) 6 more 11s, less 9s burbe (11), Harry (9), Dobbo (8) | Ultraviolence (0), SamJudd (3), Haus (4)




The last two Fazer tracks are out, with Killer just missing the top 20. It peaked at #17 and was the only member of N-Dubz to not get a debut #1 as a solo artist. It spent 2 weeks in the top 40 and 75. It's far from the high standards of No Regrets and Young, but it's quite a good bop. The more recent release credited as Richard Rawson features The Wanted member Tom Parker in Fireflies which sadly didn't chart sob.gif just love the piano work and the rap works well alongside, in a similar fashion to Written In The Stars music.gif Yin Yang by Dappy made a peak of only #73 but it's one of those weaker singles artists release, but it did alright here imo happy.gif

Also we lose two more Tulisa tracks, but they aren't as good as the ones left so no big losses there biggrin.gif

As for I'm Coming (Tarzan Part 2), I just think it's a bit of a mess tbh. Not really the kind of thing I enjoy from him really. It peaked #35 officially. Another significant loss here is Rockstar by Dappy. It was released as the second single after the #1 hit No Regrets, but was denied a second #1 due to the massive 2012 hit Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye.

#11 to #20 coming soon. Could really do with having my headphones handy but they've mysteriously dissapeared all day sad.gif

#20: Beautiful Me

7.22

It's like you've been waiting on a different me,
You say it could get better but you never see...




You say you wanna love me: Dobbo, Kuki Sanban (10), Spadz (8)

You say I'm just a fake: Lee (4)

Dappy's most recent hit now. Lots of chart loons expected this to flop but it actually did pretty well, peaking at #19 and spending 3 weeks in the top 75 ohmy.gif it's a decent track, wasn't expecting it to be as he's not really that relevant these days but it was a good surprise biggrin.gif




#19: Ouch

7.4

Ha, ha, ha, ha, it use to be the other way around but,
Ha, ha, ha, ha, the story changed my heart is breaking...




Now she the type of lady: Harry (10), Haus (9), Ultraviolence, Kuki Sanban, Mack (8)

Nah, get the hell off of my ba-baby: Lee (5)

Ouch peaked at #22 and spend a decent 9 weeks in the top 75. It's clearly got some fans here, me not being one of the bigger fans of this but I didn't mind it.



#18: Morning Star

7.5 (Less 9s)

Morning star, you're my morning star, star, star, star,
You're my morning star your the one that I love shine so far




The one that I'm waiting for: Kuki Sanban (11), Lee (10), Spadz (8.5), burbe (8)

I couldn't be able to if I tried to: Dobbo, Mack (5)

N-Dubz very last top 75 hit here cry.gif It just missed out the top 50 at #52 but put up a bit of a fight, staying 4 weeks in the #52-#75 region of the chart.



#17: Good Intentions

7.55 (More 9s)

'Cause there's a man over board, and the tides gonna drag him down,
If there's a man in the clouds, then tell me where the hell is he now...?




Ny heart strings getting played like a symphony: Dobbo (11), Spadz (10), burbe, Mack, Haus (9), Harry (8)

We just ain't the same: SamJudd (2)

This followed No Regrets and Rockstar for Dappy's third solo single Good Intentions. Once again he slayed my ears with this jam music.gif I loved the whole jungle theme and the changing of the conditions in the video, went really well with the lyrics! It peaked at #12 but it went out rather quickly as it only spent 6 weeks in the top 75 no.gif great use of piano here as well, and if you haven't heard the skit included on the album you should tbh, it's hilarious laugh.gif





#16: You Better Not Waste My Time

7.55

I need to leave jerks like you behind,
'Cause all they ever do is just bring me down...




I'm a chap with good manners: Lee (10), Spadz, Harry, Kuki Sanban, SamJudd, Kuki Sanban (8)

The worst of the worst: none w00t.gif

N-Dubz' second single and first to reach the top 40. This peaked at #26 and spent an average 3 weeks top 75.



#15: Live It Up (featuring Tyga)

7.75 (Less 10s)

Put your glasses up, toast to the good life that we're livin' up,
There's no one here but us, there's never too much love...




Toast to the good life that we're livin: Dobbo (10), Harry, Kuki Sanban, Mack (9), Spadz (8.5), Lee, Haus (8)

That's your loss: Ultraviolence (3)

Tulisa's second single following Young. It did not do as well as Dappy's second single as it peaked at only #11. It's far from the high standards of Young anyway so it's no loss for me, I do like the video though tongue.gif it didn't last very long at all: only 4 weeks in the top 75! ohmy.gif



#14: Say It's Over

7.75 (More 10s)

All my people round the world, if you like somebody else,
How do you find the words to say that it's over...?




You were number 1 forever: Spadz, burbe, Kuki Sanban (10), Lee (8.5), SamJudd, Haus (8)

Cant take no more: Mack (5)

Now we're getting to the big classic N-Dubz tunes wub.gif at the time, not enough people bought the song so it had to make do with a #20 peak. Too low mad.gif I guess 9 weeks in the top 75 and 6 of those being in the top 40 isn't too shabby tongue.gif



#13: Best Behaviour

7.85

Love is all I need, I've waited all my life,
Love is all I need, I've waited all my life...




All the cheering, all the applause: Spadz (9.5), Harry, burbe, Haus (9), Lee, Kuki Sanban, Mack (8)

A little too much fun on tour: Ultraviolence (4)

We reach N-Dubz last ever top 10 as a trio, but only just as it peaked at exactly #10. I especially love the chorus, brill vocals heart.gif as usual it didn't last very long in the chart, 9 weeks in the top 75.



#12: Papa Can You Hear Me?

7.95

My daddy this and my daddy that,
Well, I found mine dead on a couch in ma flat...




Put me on stage in front of a crowd: burbe (10), Harry, Kuki Sanban, Mack, Haus (9), Ultraviolence (8)

Just hear my pain: Dobbo (5)

The 4th single and first to reach the top 20 from N-Dubz. It peaked at #19 and spent 11 weeks in the top 75 region. Another one I don't love as much as the others that has some big fans who have participated in this rate blush.gif



#11: Living Without You

8.055555556 (No 9s)

I don't know my place, living without you is a curse that I can't take,
I know I've made mistakes, living without you is a curse that I can't take...




Hoping that I feel alive: Ultraviolence (11), Dobbo, Kuki Sanban (10), Lee, Spadz, Haus (8)

Falling to the depths without no safety: SamJudd (4)

Another recent Tulisa track, and the leave of this song means that she only has one solo track in the top 10. It may be because it is so recent that it did so well here. I didn't really get into it. The verses at the beginning did drag on a bit and put me off the song but the chorus was a bit catchy for a while. If I recall correctly, it made the lower end of the top 40 midweek but missed out officially at #44. Once again Dappy's solo career is beating Tulisa's ohmy.gif


Top 10

6/19

3/14

1/6

#10: Girls

8.055555556

Girlssssss, I'm loving them,
But I won't let them get the best of me...




I just can't live without them: Haus (11), Harry, Mack (10), Kuki Sanban (9), Dobbo, burbe (8)

I switch off the rolls: Lee (4)

Girls peaked at #18 and spent a total of 8 weeks in the top 75. A very good song from them, but I'd swap a fair few of their other singles for this in the top 10 if I could.





Still in:

5/19

3/14
