Now we're at the half-way mark with a requested round! But first, here's what happened in round 4:

Best UK chart near-miss:
01. Ariana Grande - no tears left to cry [19 votes]
02. Miley Cyrus - Party In The U.S.A. [3 votes]
03. Lana Del Rey - West Coast [1 vote]

A walk-over for the very well-loved 'no tears left to cry'! Ariana now equalises Lana with 2 wins each.

Next up is dance anthems! I've decided that 'Summertime Sadness (Remix)' can have a second chance as it did not win a previous round. Just wanting to keep this as inclusive as possible, as it definitely feels like her definitive dance anthem. Anything else wouldn't be particularly well-known. Vote for your favourite!


Ariana Grande - Break Free (feat. Zedd)


Lana Del Rey - Summertime Sadness (Cedric Gervais Remix)


Mark Ronson - Nothing Breaks Like A Heart (feat. Miley Cyrus)

Past round winners
ROUND 1: Lana Del Rey (best debut - 'Video Games')
ROUND 2: Ariana Grande (best biggest hit in the UK - 'One Last Time')
ROUND 3: Lana Del Rey (best title track - 'Born To Die')
ROUND 4: Ariana Grande (best UK chart near-miss - 'no tears left to cry')

01. Mark Ronson - Nothing Breaks Like A Heart (feat. Miley Cyrus)
02. Lana Del Rey - Summertime Sadness (Cedric Gervais Remix)
03. Ariana Grande - Break Free (feat. Zedd)

My first vote for Miley so far! I think 'Nothing Breaks Like A Heart' is now my favourite song she's ever been involved with! So good. I even own it on vinyl thanks to Record Store Day. I've been a fan of 'Summertime Sadness (Remix)' since day 1 but I'm not quite as fond of it nowadays as I was in 2013, so it settles for second. 'Break Free' has actually got better for me over the years and is definitely a great euphoric moment in Ariana's discography, but the other two were a high bar!

1. Lana Del Rey - Summertime Sadness (Cedric Gervais Remix)
2. Ariana Grande - Break Free (feat. Zedd)
3. Mark Ronson - Nothing Breaks Like A Heart (feat. Miley Cyrus)

Found it tough to choose between the top two but I absolutely loved Summertime Sadness at the time and still think it's the best of the lot here! Break Free is also brilliant, Nothing Breaks Like A Heart is good but not quite the same level as the other two.

Maybe next round could be most streamed on Spotify or something?

I was gonna go for 'Nothing Breaks...', but then remembered all the moments on the dancefloor I've had to 'Break Free' over the years and plumped for that!

This is looking close between the top 2

Break Free by a gazillion miles.

NBLAH has failed to grow on me and Summertime Sadness is just Lana.

1. Break Free
2. Summertime Sadness

So close between Break Free & Summertime Sadness for me.

That’s good!!

Or battle of like a fan favourite album track what wasn’t a single by each of them.

Miley easily wins this round for me.

I hated the remix of Summertime Sadness and Break Free is one of Arianas weakest singles for me despite loving it at the time it’s dated and left little impact and she’s topped it many many times.

Highest turnout for one of these rounds so far but... we're still going to need more as there's a tie between the top 2 again even after new votes this morning!
