Ooh very good start to the top 10 so far! I think I charted almost everything there last year *.* 'Doomscroller' was of course my favourite from that Metric album but 'False Dichotomy' was still a highlight nevertheless. 'Magic', 'In A Dream' and 'Time Is Not A Healer It’s A Fuel For Resentment' are all very good BJSC entries <3 have you heard 'Desperado Vespa' by the latter artist? That was how I first discovered LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER via an Aelandor entry several years back Ooh yay for the taste *.* Metric have certainly been a huge find for me as I was only vaguely aware of them before 'Doomscroller'. Love the support for those BJSC entries can't remember if I'd sought it out before, but 'Desperado Vespa' sounds pretty good - several of his songs have come up on my Release Radar, including 'Night Or Day' which I also charted. Thanks Jade now for the conclusion of this countdown! |

#02 -> #01 #02 MRD - Last Dance (804 points) [24-12-09-05-03-02-01-01-01-01-01-02-04-05-07-06-08-10-11-15-15-18-21-21-25-35-40] The MRD song which takes the runner up spot comes from the same EP as 'Midsommar' and similarly infuses his deep vocals with layers of synth riffs and post-punkish guitar, however the expansive danceable production, bassline, and the little elements like a panpipe midway through lift it to another place - once I considered its potential crossover appeal, I sent it to BJSC 155, but never would have guessed it could finish as high as 3rd so a long chart run before and after that highpoint of my BJSC participation to date brings it to one place higher in this particular rundown! #01 Rose Gray - Ecstasy (838 points) [06-02-01-02-01-01-01-01-02-03-03-05-07-06-04-06-08-09-10-13-16-19-22-22-31-31-37] However my song of the year belongs to Rose Gray - I'd already charted her 2022 release 'Promise Me' (#112 in this listing; her later release 'Happiness' is at #110) with a similar 90s-festival-friendly dance vibe, when this took a hold of me with its huge danceable riffs and builds and Rose's hedonistic vocals, and the titular metaphors of the lyrics are pure genius - so by a margin of 34 points (less than a quarter of the gap between 3rd and 2nd), she takes top spot for the year congratulations Rose! |

Sorry I've not got round to checking this chart out yet Jim (and most of the others in the thread, sadly!), but you've got a sale out of it - I hadn't focused on the Rose Gray track till I saw it on your top spot, and it's rather good! Charting it soon-ish
01 | 838 | Rose Gray - Ecstasy 07 | 575 | Loreen - Tattoo 17 | 411 | Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Wuh Oh - Hypnotized 20 | 397 | The Killers - Your Side Of Town 25 | 391 | Peggy Gou - (It Goes Like) Nanana 31 | 355 | Ofenbach feat. Norma Jean Martine - Overdrive 36 | 336 | Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding - Miracle 42 | 325 | Lucia & The Best Boys - Burning Castles 48 | 289 | Depeche Mode - Ghosts Again 60 | 248 | Noah Kahan - Stick Season 66 | 230 | Sheryl Crow - Alarm Clock 68 | 226 | Dua Lipa - Houdini 76 | 208 | Stephen Sanchez - Until I Found You 83 | 196 | cassö, RAYE, D-Block Europe - Prada 97 | 162 | Olivia Rodrigo - vampire 100 | 156 | The Weeknd - Less Than Zero (number 2 biggie in 2022 for me) These are the main ones I charted and bought, but a huge chunk of your chart I haven't heard, or at most have heard once, so that isn't in any way a reflection of whether I like them or not - I just havent heard them! On new releases I tend to focus on familiar names to give a spin on my phone, beyond that it's down to what I come across elsewhere, usually radio two or BJSC |

Delighted to hear you enjoyed 'Ecstasy' enough for a sale! Well she's had two in a day as I'd been thinking I should actually buy some of these, so in fact I bought all my top 6 here. Glad to see you several others of these made your chart. I know there's some obscure ones here too - many of them are just from listening to playlists or songs others have charted and seeing what sticks! Thanks John
