46 NE 19 Swedish House Mafia (feat. Pharrell) - One (Your Name) 171
45 30 - Example - Kickstarts 174
44 53 9 Kanye West - POWER 174
43 48 4 Florence & The Machine - You've Got The Love 175
42 33 - Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill 177
41 NE 23 Pendulum - Watercolour 184
40 28 - Florence & The Machine - Cosmic Love 185
39 14 - B.o.B (feat. Hayley Williams) - Airplanes 187
38 22 - Mark Ronson & The Business Intl (feat. Q-Tip & MNDR) - Bang Bang Bang 188
37 39 11 Biffy Clyro - Many Of Horror 190
36 RE 18 3OH!3 (feat. Katy Perry) - Starstrukk 191

Not a good day for Marina... or Gorillaz. I didn't expect On Melancholy Hill to retain its (somewhat flukey) AQ for years and years (nor did I ever expect to see two Gorillaz songs in a final again, thanks for your service Stylo) but it's still a shame because it remains glorious. Airplanes has a huge decrease, I wonder why it did so well last year.

35 32 - Kelly Rowland (feat. David Guetta) - Commander 193
34 43 6 Alexis Jordan - Happiness 194
33 50 17 David Guetta (feat. Rihanna) - Who's That Chick 197
32 42 2 Saturdays - Higher 197
31 60 13 Timbaland (feat. Katy Perry) - If We Ever Meet Again 198
30 7 - Ellie Goulding - Guns And Horses 200
29 23 - Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed 201
28 13 - Ellie Goulding - The Writer 206
27 5 - Owl City - Fireflies 209
26 54 1 Katy Perry - California Gurls 212
25 19 - Plan B - She Said 216
24 21 - Tinie Tempah - Pass Out 216
23 12 - Rihanna - Rude Boy 218
22 NE 22 Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) 219
21 17 - Mumford & Sons - The Cave 220
20 29 - xx - Islands 220
19 26 - Marina & The Diamonds - Hollywood 221
18 40 8 Cee Lo Green - f*** You 222
17 25 - Katy Perry - Firework 232
16 15 - Alicia Keys - Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart 238

Of course the best thing here can be seen immediately, Happiness has regained its rightful AQ, although it was very touch and go. Also note the three Ellie Goulding songs in a row (thankfully with her John Lewis cover relegated to second last after somehow being top 35 last year) after we decide that Guns And Horses wasn't worthy of a top 10 spot after all. Neither was Fireflies. I was very taken aback in a good way when it went straight to the final last year and I guess good things can never last in ROTD, the only way to go is down. However, I'm very pleased to see that the MODERN CLASSIC (feat excellent existential lyrics and a beautiful voice from Reginé, in what is probably an unusually Buzzjack-friendly Arcade Fire song) Sprawl II comes within touching distance of the next round. That's a great left-field AQ, let's hope it keeps up. Pop fans may be pleased to see the return of California Gurls, Higher and Who's That Chick.

15 58 5 Diana Vickers - Once 238 (more votes)
14 16 - Kelis - Acapella 243
13 8 - Edward Maya (feat. Vika Jigulina) - Stereo Love 244
12 44 7 Saturdays - Ego 251
11 11 - Hurts - Wonderful Life 260
10 18 - Kylie Minogue - Get Outta My Way 274
9 24 - Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie 288
8 9 - Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers 313
7 20 - Katy B - Katy On A Mission 313
6 6 - Lady Gaga - Alejandro 346

As long as I can remember, Once has only ever done well in round 1 and then failed completely in Round 2. To see it not only grab an AQ spot but move onto the next round is very strange indeed. Round 1 qualifier numbers up to 7 guys, how high can we go?! A rare improvement for the Saturdays as well. Big improvements for Get Outta My Way, almost finally beating the far inferior Kylie song (while Alejandro doesn't beat the inferior Gaga song), Katy On A Mission, Love The Way You Lie and Firework all moving onwards. I am pleased for Firework, I get the feeling it's often been seen as underperforming, now it gets a chance to go further. And of course this was the only major change that Leo made, Acapella gets in instead. Firework remains most unlucky big pop hitter in ROTD. Once now has to move through on a tiebreak but it has more votes than Try Sleeping so that's okay. I guess this round must have had the pop fans out in force

5 4 - Katy Perry - Teenage Dream 377
4 2 - Rihanna (feat. Drake) - What's My Name 385
3 3 - Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) 386
2 10 - Lady Gaga & Beyoncé - Telephone 420
1 1 - Robyn - Dancing On My Own 478

Evidently, as most of last year's top 5 remains the same and the usual winner Telephone is back where it (apparently, it's aged awfully, I can get why Bad Romance remains so loved but this sounds so tacky these days) belongs after falling to 10th. But last year's winner remains on top meaning that we're 4/4 for defending yearly champions, will 2011 or 2012's winners surrender next week?
