I am happy to see Somebody Told Me by The Killers at number one. It's one of my favourite songs from 2004

Really enjoyed this thread. Superbly strong top 15 in the final rate. Thanks also for posting the earlier round votes under the different voting system - I'd been wondering how different they'd be (less than I expected, it turns out)

I stand by my comment at the time. I've never disliked the song, I've always thought it was just 'alright' but its use in Stranger Things has made me appreciate it a lot more.
