Posted January 25, 201510 yr http://i759.photobucket.com/albums/xx240/MarthaJonesFan/RateBanner-3.png Finally here! Kicking things off immediately with your bottom 12: 31 6.90 Streets of Glory 32 6.75 The Bigger You Love (The Harder You Fall) 33 6.73 Beauty Remains 34 6.54 Impossible Heart 35 6.40 Let Your Love Walk In 36 6.25 Ready for the Good Life (more 10s) 37 6.25 My Legs Are Weak 38 6.23 Technicolour 39 6.09 I Just Wait (more 9s) 40 6.09 Press Lightly 41 5.93 Broken Doll 42 5.59 Luv Ya B-side Luv Ya finishes in last place, with album track Broken Doll being just above - it got two -1s so it got lucky to avoid last place I guess! Further up, Ready for the Good Life becomes the lowest single by a mile, seems abut right for it really, I never properly got into it. Impossible Heart appears WAY too low, a big highlight on A Perfect Contradiction for me!
January 25, 201510 yr Broken Doll isn't that bad :( Really hope the glorious 30 Minute Love Affair can end up top 5 <3
January 25, 201510 yr Ready for the good life that low :cry: :cry: New York or only love can hurt like this to win
January 25, 201510 yr Author 21 7.67 Changing (Sigma feat. Paloma Faith) 22 7.63 When You're Gone 23 7.60 Freedom 24 7.46 Love Only Leaves You Lonely 25 7.36 Play On 26 7.27 Taste My Own Tears 27 7.18 Other Woman 28 7.11 It's the Not Knowing 29 7.07 Beauty of the End 30 7.04 Take Me Mainly a bunch of album tracks here, including a lot from A Perfect Contradiction, no *huge* losses IMO. Changing is a little bit too high, I find it quite overrated sadly as it's just the same as many other drum and bass tracks. However, it did give Paloma her first EVER #1 hit :jameela: so it's good for something I guess!
January 29, 201510 yr Author 11 8.40 Agony 12 8.30 Mouth to Mouth 13 8.27 Smoke & Mirrors 14 8.23 Just Be 15 7.97 Black & Blue 16 7.87 Blood, Sweat & Tears 17 7.86 Stargazer 18 7.83 Let Me Down Easy 19 7.82 Trouble with My Baby 20 7.70 Can't Rely on You Some more singles start to drop now, with A Perfect Contradiction losing its lead single Can't Rely On You (way too low :() and third single Trouble With My Baby. Only Love Can Hurt Like This and Leave While I'm Not Looking are both still to come. Fifth singles from their respective albums, both Smoke & Mirrors and Black & Blue didn't do anything at all chartwise, and miss the top 10 here, along with JUST BE. WHICH IS RIDICULOUSLY LOW. ASHAMED OF YOU ALL.
January 29, 201510 yr 12 8.30 Mouth to Mouth 13 8.27 Smoke & Mirrors 14 8.23 Just Be 15 7.97 Black & Blue 16 7.87 Blood, Sweat & Tears 17 7.86 Stargazer 18 7.83 Let Me Down Easy ^ These ones are absolute gems! :wub:
January 29, 201510 yr Just Be should be top 3 imo :cry: 'Just Be' is an amazing song, but I guess it's a testament to how strong her discography is that we've got so much to look forward to in the top 10!
January 29, 201510 yr Author 'Just Be' is an amazing song, but I guess it's a testament to how strong her discography is that we've got so much to look forward to in the top 10! True! Speaking of the top 10, this is it in alphabetical order: 30 Minute Love Affair Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? Leave While I'm Not Looking Never Tear Us Apart New York Only Love Can Hurt Like This Picking Up the Pieces Romance Is Dead Stone Cold Sober Upside Down A surprise or two there IMO - mainly Romance Is Dead :o
January 29, 201510 yr What a great top 10! I'm not sure I'd consider 'Leave When I'm Not Looking' top 10 worthy over some that have left already but it's still good. '30 Minute Love Affair' to win! (It won't though)
January 29, 201510 yr Author MESS - I put one of the scores for Romance Is Dead in wrong :drama: It's actually 16th, pushing Agony up to #10. The list so far now: 10 8.40 Agony 11 8.30 Mouth to Mouth 12 8.27 Smoke & Mirrors 13 8.23 Just Be 14 7.97 Black & Blue 15 7.87 Blood, Sweat & Tears 16 7.86 Romance Is Dead 17 7.86 Stargazer 18 7.83 Let Me Down Easy 19 7.82 Trouble with My Baby 20 7.70 Can't Rely on You 21 7.67 Changing (Sigma feat.

February 3, 201510 yr Author 6 8.87 Never Tear Us Apart 7 8.83 Stone Cold Sober 8 8.71 Leave While I'm Not Looking 9 8.67 30 Minute Love Affair Racing through this now to try and finish it :heehee: 30 Minute Love Affair comes 9th here, a sublime track which is very underrated I think, just missed out on my 11! Leave While I'm Not Looking is just above it at #8, I've not completely warmed to this yet and it feels like a massively inferior version of Only Love Can Hurt Like This :( Debut hit Stone Cold Sober is at #7. Fun fact: I didn't know this was Paloma until I bought the album a couple of years ago, it's been everywhere on adverts. And finally, John Lewis advert cover Never Tear Us Apart is at #6, this was actually the first Paloma track I heard and liked, had only heard a couple before this and wasn't initially fussed!
February 3, 201510 yr YASS at Leave While I'm Not Looking making the top 10 as I knew it would :w00t: Only Love Can Hurt Like This or Picking Up The Pieces for #1 please ^_^
February 3, 201510 yr Author 3 9.43 New York (less 11s) 4 9.17 Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? 5 9.10 Upside Down The remaining three singles from Paloma's debut album drop out just before the top two now. Upside Down was the only single she didn't perform when I saw her live in June 2013 :( It seems like one of her most well-known songs despite never making the top 40! The first album's title track end up at #4, nice to see it so high as it seems very underappreciated to me! New York is comfortably top 3, another favourite of mine so great to see it high. It actually tied with #2 based on average but has less 11s than that track so places lower. This leaves a top two of ONLY LOVE CAN HURT LIKE THIS and PICKING UP THE PIECES. Which will win? :o
