Yay for '47' being top 20 but which 3 joyless people gave that -2? mad.gif

No one did, that was me being a flop and not removing it from my last post. tongue.gif

#15. Tyler, the Creator - Earfquake

UK chart run: 17-24-37-43-49-64-x [6 weeks]
Points: +71 | Positive votes: 07 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Bré [18 points]


Well it looks like Bré's going to lose his faith in this forum then. Still Tyler does well here with his first top 20 hit 'Earfquake' taken from Grammy award winning album 'Igor'. It was somewhat of a surprise hit as he hadn't even gone top 75 before though his profile had been building for a while clearly.

#14. Harry Styles - Watermelon Sugar

UK chart run: 35-28-55-47-18-50-17-29-33-39-... [10 weeks]
Points: +86 | Positive votes: 12 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Riser [15 points]


Harry Styles didn't get a #1 this time around but ended up with more hits than he got from his debut as soon as this promo single entered the chart, eventually reaching the top 20 following the album release.

#13. Blackbear - Hot Girl Bummer

UK chart run: 58-41-30-25-18-19-14-14-18-19-21-x-35-55-58-x [14 weeks]
Points: +90 | Positive votes: 10 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Jason [18 points]


The top hip hop top 20 hit of the year is this track which got Blackbear his first hit in the UK, with it easily out-doing the similarly titled 'Hot Girl Summer'. Apparently those two songs coming out at about the same time was unintentional and the song's title was inspired by the #hotgirlsummer hashtag trend rather than Megan's song.

#12. Sia - Santa's Coming For Us

UK chart run: 65-65-39-x-66-47-24-x-56-43-36-17-x [10 weeks]
Points: +98 | Positive votes: 11 | Negative votes: 01
Top points from: M4NGO [18 points]
Negative points from: coi [-2 points]


Sia's Christmas song continued to out-do its peak year-on-year, with it eventually reaching the top 20 at the crucial point of its chart life just a year before it will descend to ACR. Although if Amazon continue to give it prominent playlist placement it could still continue to go top 40 in the years to come.

#11. Jess Glynne & Jax Jones - One Touch

UK chart run: 31-30-23-19-23-23-24-28-35-36-71-x [11 weeks]
Points: +104 | Positive votes: 13 | Negative votes: 01
Top points from: Riser [18 points]
Negative points from: LewisGT [-2 points]


A release done to help along Jess Glynne's album from 2018 as well as continue the Jax Jones 'Snacks' campaign, this ended up only being a middling hit for them however.

#10. Sigrid - Don't Feel Like Crying

UK chart run: 65-34-20-15-13-18-20-21-19-25-29-30-71-x [13 weeks]
Points: +128 | Positive votes: 11 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Sergej, WhoOdyssey [18 points]


A year after breaking through with 'Strangers' and though some had written her off as a one hit wonder she managed another with this just before getting a top five album.

#09. Taylor Swift - Lover

UK chart run: 23-14-22-31-42-42-51-54-61-x-38-49-70-x [12 weeks]
Points: +131 | Positive votes: 12 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: ...ready for it, Bjork, Beautiful Ghosts, jimwatts [18 points]


Taylor Swift got off to a good start with two top five hits. Her third single and title track of the #1 album to come didn't quite manage to reach the top 10 however, though it still performed better than the equivalent third single off 'Reputation'.

#08. Avicii - Heaven

UK chart run: 20-28-38-39-47-49-55-59-64-x [9 weeks]
Points: +134 | Positive votes: 11 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: danuary, coi, Dexton [18 points]


The 2nd official single from Avicii's posthumous album 'Tim' with vocals by Chris Martin. It impacted the top 20 on the week of the album's release though sadly it only managed one week in the top 20. Great to see this top 10 in this rundown anyhow.

#07. Clean Bandit (feat. Marina & Luis Fonsi) - Baby

UK chart run: 33-38-32-26-25-24-25-49-15-17-23-28-29-x [13 weeks]
Points: +137 | Positive votes: 15 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Dobbo [15 points]


Briefly bringing Marina and Luis Fonsi back into the charts were Clean Bandit, whose 'Baby' broke their streak of consecutive top 10 singles dating back to 'Real Love' in 2014 though it was still a modest hit unlike their follow-up with Ellie Goulding.

#06. Riton & Oliver Heldens (feat. Vula) - Turn Me On

UK chart run: 58-37-29-16-12-13-12-12-15-17-25-x-58-39-39-47-x [15 weeks]
Points: +138 | Positive votes: 15 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: photografdemon [18 points]


An unlikely comeback to the chart for all the artists involved, with the help of a prominent sample of 'Don't Go', giving Riton his 2nd chart hit and Oliver his 4th. It was also Vula's first credited hit although she also sang on Basement Jaxx's 'Oh My Gosh' and 'Hush Boy'.

The top five then are:
Ava Max - So Am I #13
Freya Ridings - Castles #16
Katy Perry - Never Really Over #12
Meduza, Becky Hill & Goodboys - Lose Control #11
Tiësto & Mabel - God Is A Dancer #15

These results have gone pretty much the opposite to how I would have wanted. Only 1 song I voted for in the top 10 and only 3 in the top 20. sad.gif

Come on God Is A Dancer!

It's now time for the top five, all revealed in this post! dance.gif

#05. Freya Ridings - Castles



UK chart run: 52-34-26-18-18-21-18-16-17-20-26-29-60-70-x [14 weeks]
Points: +142 | Positive votes: 17 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Sergej, Beautiful Ghosts, Dexton [15 points]


Following her breakthrough megasmash 'Lost Without You', she could only manage #57 with her next single. Worries that she'd be a one hit wonder were soon unrealised by 'Castles' however which didn't quite manage top 10 but ended up spending 6 weeks in the top 20 and nearly clinching a place in the year-end Top 100. Her album also reached the top five on the back of its success.

#04. Tiësto & Mabel - God Is A Dancer



UK chart run: 37-33-32-15-16-18-20-26-26-30-46-x [11 weeks]
Points: +143 | Positive votes: 16 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Dobbo [18 points]


Veteran DJ Tiësto couldn't quite reach the top 20 with 'Ritual' earlier on in the year but luck was on his side for the follow-up with help from Mabel who once again finishes top five in this poll following the success of 'Fine Line' last year. It is his 5th top 20 hit in all including three top 10s. Mabel also now has three top 10s although one more top 20 hit than Tiesto.

#03. Ava Max - So Am I



UK chart run: 50-30-18-20-16-14-13-17-19-18-19-25-35-74-x [14 weeks]
Points: +147 | Positive votes: 17 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Rush, Sergej, Beautiful Ghosts, jimwatts, M4NGO [13 points]


Following Ava Max's massive debut hit 'Sweet But Psycho' she managed to at least get one more moderate smash with 'So Am I', with it having one of the year's longest top 20 runs for a song that missed the top 10 so she was quite unlucky in that respect. Subsequent follow-ups have failed to reach even the top 75 however.

#02. Katy Perry - Never Really Over



UK chart run: 13-14-12-12-13-14-22-21-24-28-28-29-32-x [13 weeks]
Points: +167 | Positive votes: 14 | Negative votes: 01
Top points from: Jack [18 points]
Negative points from: Nick F1 [-2 points]


One of the unluckiest top 10 misses of the year with 6 weeks spent between 12 and 14, it became an unlikely big hit for Katy Perry at this stage in her career after some had written her off following two underperforming collab singles earlier in the year. However it is still her most recent top 40 hit as her follow-ups peaked at #43 and #45.

Which means your winner, the song that deserved to go Top 10 the most in 2019 is...

#01. Meduza, Becky Hill & Goodboys - Lose Control



UK chart run: 33-15-15-14-11-12-13-16-18-54-x-31-15-16-20-... [14 weeks]
Points: +171 | Positive votes: 17 | Negative votes: 00
Top points from: Nick F1, broken records [18 points]


Italian production group Meduza broke through in a big way with #2 hit 'Piece of Your Heart' and for their follow-up they got Becky Hill to provide lead vocals. However it wasn't quite enough to get them a second top 10 and instead they had to settle for 11 weeks in the top 20 with a #11 peak... and they most likely would've gone top 10 in the week after Christmas had the song not been prematurely put on ACR, before getting reset after the New Year boost, how unlucky! Anyhow, I am very pleased with this winner, you chose well, though I'd have also been happy with Katy and it was so close between them I'm just glad Ava hasn't won tbh.

Thanks danG, pleasantly surprised to see Lose Control top this! I was sure this was going to be Katy once Taylor's votes started to drop off. How strange that So Am I finished 3rd despite being in no one's top 2 (the next song down that's true for is... Boasty in 16th...) That's a good top 10 overall I think.

I really thought Never Really Over was going to win this! Glad Lose Control won it though, really did deserve to be a top ten hit! Thanks for running this.

Well that's a very underwhelming winner. I'd have assumed 'Never Really Over' would take this pretty easily (and would have been deserved, although it fell just short of my votes iirc). Instead we just have 'Piece Of Your Heart' lite. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think 'Castles' and 'Lover' are the only ones in the top 10 I voted for (and the latter is much lower than I expected as well). Bad results, try again next year. xox
