RESULTS:

60 NE 23 Flo Rida (feat. Sia) - Wild Ones 110
59 RE 18 Katy Perry - Part Of Me 112
58 NE 25 Emeli Sande - Next To Me 125
57 NE 20 Plan B - iLL Manors 125
56 RE 16 P!nk - Blow Me (One Last Kiss) 127

53 NE 14 Alex Clare - Too Close 146
52 NE 15 Karmin - Brokenhearted 155
51 40 10 David Guetta - She Wolf (Falling To Pieces) 155
50 38 13 Swedish House Mafia - Greyhound 156
49 44 5 David Guetta (feat. Nicki Minaj) - Turn Me On 157
48 26 - Jessie Ware - 110% 161
47 30 - Misha B - Do You Think Of Me 166
46 NE 8 Paloma Faith - Picking Up The Pieces 168
45 NE 11 Rita Ora - How We Do (Party) 168
44 49 6 Stooshe - Black Heart 172
43 34 - Lana Del Rey - Ride 179
42 RE 22 PSY - Gangnam Style 180
41 48 19 Owl City (feat. Carly Rae Jepsen) - Good Time 187
40 42 2 Little Mix - Wings 188
39 32 - Katy Perry - Wide Awake 193
38 33 - Beyoncé - Love On Top 195
37 31 - Frank Ocean - Pyramids 196
36 NE 24 Porter Robinson - Language 200 (12 votes)

Not a great changeover here either, again the highest profile AQ loss is 110% (aka If You're Never Gonna Move, I should change the name for that actually as much as it pains me to do so), it is by far the better of the two Jessie Ware songs in this final as far as I'm concerned. sad.gif AQs of Misha B, Ride and Pyramids were a bit random too, I love Ride but they did stand out a bit so they also go down. Most of the qualifiers don't do much, but Wings as the second placer is also lost here, and Language as the 24th placer loses out its AQ status on a tiebreak. That's really quite unfortunate, poor Porter Robinson, it was nice to see it in the final and I thought it was doing quite well before I looked at these results.

35 35 - Usher - Climax 200 (16 votes)
34 47 7 Demi Lovato - Give Your Heart A Break 201
33 39 3 Coldplay (feat. Rihanna) - Princess Of China 201
32 NE 9 Jay-Z & Kanye West (feat. Frank Ocean) - No Church In The Wild 204
31 NE 12 M.I.A - Bad Girls 206
30 22 - P!nk - Try 209
29 15 - Calvin Harris (feat. Florence Welch) - Sweet Nothing 211
28 RE 4 Amelia Lily - You Bring Me Joy 242
27 36 1 Fun. (feat. Janelle Monae) - We Are Young 245
26 24 - Nicki Minaj - Pound The Alarm 245
25 29 - Rihanna - Where Have You Been 264
24 16 - Lana Del Rey - Born To Die 273
23 23 - Jay-Z & Kanye West - Niggas In Paris 277
22 28 - Kelly Clarkson - What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger) 280
21 14 - Marina & The Diamonds - Primadonna 286
20 19 - Ellie Goulding - Anything Could Happen 288
19 27 - Cheryl - Call My Name 309
18 10 - Florence & The Machine - Spectrum 316
17 20 - Ellie Goulding - Figure 8 316
16 18 - Jessie Ware - Wildest Moments 317

That bloody Demi Lovato track you all keep going on about is THROUGH and won't be troubling the playoff rounds for the next year at least. Rejoice Demi fans, this one has been vindicated. Some pretty excellent new AQs though otherwise, especially M.I.A, Coldplay & Rihanna and Jay-Z/Kanye/Frank Ocean. At least Frank does still have an AQ by the narrowest of margins.

15 25 - Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together 327
14 12 - Of Monsters And Men - Little Talks 327
13 21 - Rihanna - Diamonds 331
12 17 - Little Mix - DNA 335
11 6 - Rudimental - Feel The Love 339
10 13 - Girls Aloud - Something New 349
9 11 - Nicki Minaj - Starships 356
8 5 - Swedish House Mafia - Don't You Worry Child 356
7 8 - Disclosure (feat. Sam Smith) - Latch 375
6 9 - Gotye (feat. Kimbra) - Somebody That I Used To Know 388

That Taylor Swift song with a title that's far too long to type was top 5 at one point during this so I'm slightly surprised it only just qualified for next round but it's definitely showing a good improvement due to Taylor's ascent into pop royalty.
Something New wasn't even qualifying before a rush of Girls Aloud loons in the final hours sensing their faves were in danger. At least that's how I choose to see it, you may disagree Jay kink.gif
The top end of 2012 is normally fantastic and this is no exception as otherwise this is a list mostly unchanged from the previous year, and other new top 15s Diamonds and DNA are pretty great songs.

5 3 - Azealia Banks - 212 414
4 4 - Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe 420
3 2 - David Guetta (feat. Sia) - Titanium 421
2 7 - Solange - Losing You 438
1 1 - Loreen - Euphoria 471

This was definitely a far closer contest than 2011. Euphoria still holds on top but it's not a hugely secure lead, maybe another song will win 2012 at some point in the future. But my favourite thing about these results, aside from all 5 of these being really incredible songs, is that what's coming in 2nd behind Euphoria is Losing You, which has developed an intense cult following here obviously, and certainly a deserved one. Take them all down Solange <3

Thrilled for Solange! Never would have predicted Losing You to be as high as 2nd. Really disappointed for 'Wild Ones' though, no way does that deserve to come last. 2012 was a rather stellar year for music, looking back.

FUCK'S SAKE at 'Language'. dry.gif At least it was kept out of the AQ zone by another great song but still.

Yay for Solange, M.I.A. and Jay-Z/Kanye/Frank though.
