I like to compile a different personal music rankings from small to something massive, as my retrospective # 1s list based on UK Singles Chart, but I never have top songs chart for any year. It's a good time to do it now.
Why 2009 year was selected ? Mostly because it was the last year, when I was the active follower of UK singles chart. Also it's the last year of 00s decade, so I can continue with 2008, 2007 e.t.c and will get "Top songs of decade" list in the end. My sources : 1. 14 national singles charts (United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, United States) 2. Eurovision and available national pre-selections 3. Youtube This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 10th October 2017, 05:15 PM |

# 96 - # 100:
# 96. Cookies 'N' Beans - What If (NF - Sweden) # 97. Kaja Halldorsdottir - Lygin Ein (NF - Iceland) # 98. Eisblume - Leben Ist Schon # 99. Eisblume - Eisblumen # 100. Cascada - Fever Lucky Natalie Horler, based on my chart rules Viktorija Perminaite's song "O As Mergina" was illegal and Cascada will have two singles in my top 100. Double portion of German pop rock Eisblume ("Frost Flower") with their dark cartoon videos. The one from these singles was peaked at # 3 in band's home country. Predictable or not, but "Lygin Ein" is my favourite from Icelandic Eurovision pre-selection in this year. Well-known Swedish pop country ladies Cookies 'N' Beans got a bronze medal in my version of Melodifestivalen - 2009. I prefer "Burning Flags" from 2013 year.

QUOTE(jafetsigfinns @ Sep 12 2017, 10:52 AM)  Fever is one of my favourite Cascada songs I have no idea what song "Lygin Ein" is or who Kaja Halldórsdóttir is and I'm from Iceland From UK singles my favourite is "What Hurts The Most", but many her songs weren't in UK chart and I didn't know about them. It's a common thing in Eurovision pre-selections, usually I heard about 25-30 % acts from NF of my country before.

# 91 - # 95 :
# 91. Aloha From Hell - Can You Hear Me Boys # 92. Francesca Battistelli - Free To Be Me # 93. Indica - Valokeilojen Vampyyri # 94. Silbermond - Krieger Des Lichts # 95. Fraulein Wunder - Sternradio German girls pop rock band Fraulein Wunder ("Miss Miracle") with their 6th place entry from Bundesvision Song Contest. Much more popular Silbermond, but also the local stars only in German speaking countries. In 2017 year some Finnish groups finally got their deserved place in my retro charts (Ultra Bra, Pets, PMMP, Nylon Beat, Tiktak), but Indica is personal main favourite. American Christian pop singer Francesca Battistelli with her first and last entry in Billboard Hot 100. German pop rock group again, but with a song on English. Check it, if you like early Avril Lavigne in her glory "Let Go" days. This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 13th September 2017, 07:42 AM |

# 86 - # 90 :
# 86. Cama - Fade Away # 87. Silbermond - Irgendwas Bleibt # 88. Lejla Hot - Cekajuci Princa (Waiting For A Prince) (NF - Serbia) # 89. Lady Antebellum - I Run To You # 90. Shakira - Did It Again My 2nd favourite Shakira's song, after wonderful "Underneath Your Clothes". 3rd single from a debut album. Only one Lady Antebellum's song in top 100, because "Need You Now" became a big worldwide hit in 2010. Lovely song from very boring Beovizija - 2009 (Serbian Eurovision pre-selection). The one from two most successful Silbermond's singles (# 1 in Germany and Switzerland, # 2 in Austria). Austrian songwriter and pop duo Cama with their second top 40 single. The band's name is composed of the initials of the members Carmen and Matthi. |

# 81 - # 85 :
# 81. Britney Spears - 3 # 82. Ting Tings - We Walk # 83. Monique Smit - Doe Wat Ik Wil # 84. Dreieck - Gefahrlich # 85. Aqua - Back To The 80´s Aqua’s comeback, their first single in eight years and five years after last Lene’s solo “Pretty Young Thing”. Debut single from Austrian girlband Dreieck. Monique is a younger sister to popular Dutch singer Jan Smit. She has released four music albums in last 10 years. Fifth and my least favourite single from Ting Tings’ debut album. Very far from the best Britney’s songs and big personal disappointment after wonderful singles from “Circus” era. |

# 76 - # 80 :
# 76. Marlijn & Storybox - It's Christmas Time # 77. Miss Li - I Heard Of A Girl # 78. Martina McBride - I Just Call You Mine # 79. Honey Ryder - Fly Away # 80. Within Temptation & Chris Jones - Utopia I didn't know that Within Temptation is not only symphonic metal group. Surprisingly good track. Top 40 hit in UK chart, but I prefer their two other singles from this year. Very good true country song, must listen any albums from her discography. First single from the 4th studio album by Swedish singer-songwriter Miss Li. The lowest from three singles with a word "Christmas" in a title. |

# 71 - # 75 :
# 71. Paramore - Brick By Boring Brick # 72. Honey Ryder - Choices # 73. Colbie Caillat - Falling For You # 74. Martina McBride - Ride # 75. Brooke White - Radio Radio My favourite American Idol participant Brooke White with her 2nd single. The second song in this very American part belongs to Martina McBride. She is the one from many acts with some entries in this Top 100. The first single from new Colbie’s album “Breakthrough”, which wasn’t a big hit as her debut “Bubbly”. After “Fly Away” in the previous five we meet Honey Ryder again, but it’s not their highest song. Only one entry from Paramore, because I don’t like “Ignorance". |

# 66 - # 70 :
# 66. Luttenberger*Klug - Fliegen # 67. YVA - Vaziuojam Prie Juros # 68. Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer) # 69. BeFour - Ding-A-Dong # 70. Pixie Lott - Cry Me Out Underrated ballad from British starlet Pixie Lott, which better than her both UK # 1s. German pop group BeFour with a cover version of Eurovision winner - 1975. From that contest I prefer Luxembourgish entry "Toi", performed by Irish singer Geraldine. British pop hitmaker Sophie Ellis-Bextor with her "Heartbreak", after many her # 1s in my chart I can describe this result as flop. Summer hit and rare YVA song, which wasn't # 1 in my chart. Seventh top 40 single for Austrian girl group Luttenberger*Klug. This post has been edited by Beautiful Song: 7th May 2019, 08:29 AM |

# 61 - # 65 :
# 61. Sinead Mulvey & Black Daisy - Et Cetera (ESC - Ireland) # 62. Malena Ernman - La Voix (ESC - Sweden) # 63. Taylor Swift - White Horse # 64. Miss Montreal - Being Alone At Christmas # 65. Laura Lynn - In Vuur En Vlam Belgian "Queen of Schlager" Laura Lynn with four # 1 albums and four # 1 singles in charts. This single was peaked only at # 25. Dutch singer-songwriter and guitar player Miss Montreal, the one from two biggest personal discoveries in period of work over this top 100. First Taylor Swift's entry is her country song with traditional topic about the end of relationships. Beautiful pop opera crossover, honestly besides some songs (Undo, Waterloo, This Is My Life) I'm not a fan of Swedish ESC entries. 24 years after charming "Wait Until the Weekend Comes" Ireland returns in my top 3 Eurovision songs of year list. In early 70s this country had 3 wins in four years with "All Kinds Of Everything", "Ceol An Ghra" and "Do I Dream". This post has been edited by Beautiful Song: 24th April 2019, 07:58 AM |

# 56 - # 60 :
# 56. LaFee - Scheiss Liebe # 57. Cascada - Dangerous # 58. Saint Etienne - Method Of Modern Love # 59. Lee Ann Womack - Last Call # 60. LaFee - Der Regen Fallt Two singles from my favourite German singer LaFee. At 15 years old she took a crown of my weekly chart with superhit “Prinzesschen” and became the youngest girl with # 1 single. The oldest # 1 singer is Cheryl Baker with Bucks Fizz’s comeback song “Dancing In The Rain”. Ten years after her biggest hits (“I'll Think Of A Reason Later” and “Now You See Me, Now You Don't”) American country pop singer Lee Ann Womack got her deserved position in Year-End chart with “Last Call”. Criminally underrated English band Saint Etienne is very rare sample of “hit or flop” act in my chart. "Method of Modern Love" is the only new composition on their greatest hits compilation. 1993 year was the most successful for group, three their singles became # 1s (You're In A Bad Way, Who Do You Think You Are, I Was Born On Christmas Day) The highest single from German beauty Natalie Christine Horler, because her UK # 1 is not represented here.

# 51 - # 55 :
# 51. Girls Aloud - Untouchable # 52. Chisu - Baden-Baden # 53. Doro - Herzblut # 54. Astrid Schuurmans - Kom Dan Bij Me # 55. Ellie Goulding - Under The Sheets Debut single from Ellie Goulding, peaked only at # 53 in UK Singles Chart. Schlager is the one from my favourite music styles together with pop and country, especially from Netherlands and Germany. Ex-front-woman of 80s German heavy metal band Warlock and sex symbol of rock music scene (at least in Germany and Russia) Doro Pesch with her solo single. Finnish pop singer Chisu with her most popular song “Baden-Baden”. “Untouchable” broke their consecutive top 10 singles streak in UK chart. In my opinion the weakest Girls Aloud singles were "Something New", “Love Machine” and “Long Hot Summer”. This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 24th October 2018, 01:02 PM |

# 46 - # 50 :
# 46. Princessa Avenue - Never Never (NF - Russia) # 47. Luttenberger*Klug - Sag Doch Einfach # 48. K3 - De Politie # 49. Little Boots - New In Town # 50. Metric - Sick Muse "Main hidden music treasure of this year" title belongs to Canadian band Metric. Their most unsucessful single from 4th album "Fantasies" "Sick Muse" wasn't represented in any national charts. In 2008-2010 years British pop scene got some young new singers with a big potential. Marina & Diamonds, Diana Vickers, Ellie Goulding and my personal favourite Victoria Hesketh (Little Boots). I didn't post yearly LPs chart, but want to complete "Top 100 albums of decade" list in near future. "Hands" was the one from my favourite albums in 2009. "New In Town" is the first swallow, maybe even my least favourite album track, both other singles still to come. The most hardworking girl group in a history of pop music. In 15 years period K3 fans got 13 studio albums, some greatest hits compilations and a lot of music videos. The name of pop duo Luttenberger*Klug is a girls' surnames combination. This song became their third top 20 single with a peak position at # 14. Girl pop rock group Princessa Avenue is very rare sample of something good on awful Russian music scene. "Never Never" was the first single from debut album "Princessa # 1" and also their unsuccessful attempt in Eurovision pre-selection. Sometimes the bad things happens and Russians got the worst ESC entry instead our best. This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 1st October 2017, 08:19 AM |

# 41 - # 45 :
# 41. Sounds - No One Sleeps When I'm Awake # 42. Ithaka Maria - One Last Dance (NF - Estonia) # 43. Brooke White - Hold Up My Heart # 44. Mandy Huydts & Jan Leliveld - Mijn Nummer Een # 45. Honey Ryder - Love In Time Third and last entry for Lindsay O'Mahony and her group. Unfortunatelly for band all their three albums didn't get any chart positions in UK. Dutch music is not only damned DJs and godawful electronic, but it's home country for many wonderful schlagers. Two great vocals from ex-Frizzle Sizzle member Mandy Huydts and Jan Leliveld, who dead one month ago at 61 years old, were involved in the second most successful song from a duet in this top 100. A debut single from ex-American Idol Brooke Elizabeth White, who finished only at fifth place in the seventh season. Some years ago she was a half of indie duo Jack and White. Her good voice wasn't demand and she is not a pop country superstar now. Estonia is the least successful "Baltic sister" in this year. Ithaka Maria got only 6th place in Eesti Laul with her "One Last Dance". In 2011 year she will try again with fans favourite "Hopa'pa-rei!", but her Eurovision dream can't come true. Swedish "wannabe Blondie" band The Sounds and their first single from third album ""No One Sleeps When I'm Awake". This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 1st October 2017, 08:20 AM |

# 36 - # 40 :
# 36. Kate Miller-Heidke - The Last Day On Earth # 37. Vanessa Amorosi - This Is Who I Am # 38. Miss Montreal - This Is My Life # 39. Infernal - Electric Light # 40. Katy Perry & 3OH!3 - Starstrukk Successful collaboration project between American pop superstar Katy Perry and male duo 3OH!3. The first, but not last her Top 40 entry. Possibly the most biggest personal shock from all this chart. Yes, it's that Infernal, which got some my hate for hit single "From Paris To Berlin" in 2005. We meet Miss Montreal (Roos-Anne Hans) again with her special vocals and the best single "This Is My Life". More unpredictably good comebacks. I'm not a fan of "Absolutely Everybody", but this is gorgeous and catchy pop track. This single even was # 1 in Australia. Besides mighty pop trio (Kylie, Delta, Olivia Newton-John) Australia always was underperformed in my charts. From other big hits I can remember only fantastic "Beauty Queen" by Lash, which spent some weeks at # 1 in 2001. Based on these facts I'm glad to see Vanessa and Kate so high.

# 31 - # 35 :
# 31. Twins - It's My Time (NF - United Kingdom) # 32. Domenika - This Is My Day (NF - Belarus) # 33. Ella Endlich - Kuss Mich - Halt Mich - Lieb Mich # 34. Aqua - Spin Me A Christmas # 35. Kate Miller-Heidke - Caught In The Crowd The third consecutive and the highest Australian song in my chart. Festive Aqua and my favourite their single from post-Aquarium period. Schlager, peaked at # 12 in Germany. Probably you heard her debut pop album (1999 year), when teenager Ella Endlich was known under name "Junia". Eurovision fans can remember a song "Adrenalin" from pre-selection "Unser Lied Fur Stockholm", she got only 7th place from ten participants. It's already 13th and not final song from German acts in top 100. Belarus is the one from my favourite countries, but their music is a mystery for me. A song from Eurovision pre-selection again. Good performance and better than anything they sent for main contest. Please, don't mix up them with Slovak twin pop duo Twiins. Our twins Francine and Nicola Gleadall are two beautiful English ladies. Their version of "It's My Time" sounds like Christmas' hit. In my opinion it was very possible to surpass # 27 in UK chart, but it wasn't released as single. This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 1st October 2017, 01:11 PM |

# 26 - # 30 :
# 26. Taylor Swift - Love Story # 27. Katy Perry - Waking Up In Vegas # 28. Taylor Swift - Fifteen # 29. Sokoledas - As Salia # 30. Metric - Gimme Sympathy 2nd single from Metric' album "Fantasies", it's the band's best selling album with 500.000 copies. Most popular song from Lithuanian girl group Sokoledas. The lyrics here : http://dainutekstai.lt/r1519/sniege-as-sal...ury-zemyno.html The highest non-YVA song from my favourite country. This selection looks like the most mainstream part of my chart. Firstly we have two singles from young and sweet Taylor Swift, including her worldwide breakthrough hit "Love Story". So only one her song reached top 20 in my year-end chart. Only classic albums can produce four number ones in my chart. "One Of The Boys" era started with maiden Katy's # 1 "Ur So Gay", the chain of consecutive # 1s was continued by huge hits "I Kissed A Girl" and "Hot And Cold". After "Thinking Of You" flop she is back at # 1 with this track. This post has been edited by Good Old Days: 2nd October 2017, 10:54 AM |
