QUOTE It remains as Kate Nash's only top 20 single. Not quite - Do-Wah-Doo reached #15 in 2010. |

'A Design For Life' deserves much better but considering some of the other songs that went out already #85 doesn't seem toooo bad - I didn't expect it to beat 'Your Love Alone Is Not Enough' for example.

Some great songs gone already... but to be fair there were a lot of pretty great tracks in the final this time.
Hopefully we'll get a mix of styles and eras in the top half and the results aren't too skewed by a specific voting demographic. |

Omg all these good songs coming out...but then I am reminding myself that this was a good quality overall anyway.
Unfaithful is Riri's best ballad. Kim Wilde is pure pop perfection  Adele had better songs so I think it've exactly where it should be. |

Unfaithful out too soon as well.
This was the track that made me a complete Rihanna fan. It was such an unexpected change of sound for her after two massive club hits.

Kate Nash should be much higher. I am fine with the most of the results for now.

Got rid of some of the worse songs so at least balancing it out a bit. In retrospect it's all well and good for me to say x and y deserve higher but I honestly can't even remember most of the songs left to be announced.
