The 2014 multicharts have been collated and added up and the end of year multichart is HERE. Rob, Jack and I will be taking it in turns to count down this chart for you all.

How it works: each multichart is added up with the #1 getting 75 points, right down to #75 getting 1 point. The 75 tracks with the most points are then counted down here!

Jack will be posting the first section very soon. Any predictions before we start?

75 662 Little Mix - Salute (52-xx-67-39-33-18-13-10-3-3-7-10-17-32-74-xx) [14 wks]

74 664 The Magician feat. Years & Years - Sunlight (51-40-35-29-25-15-9-8-7-11-24-34-42-70-xx) [14 wks]

73 668 David Guetta feat. Sam Martin - Dangerous (31-29-17-12-11-15-8-8-9-13-15-...) [11+ wks]

72 680 Kiesza - No Enemiesz (59-36-26-22-26-24-19-13-13-16-21-24-31-54-xx) [14 wks]

71 680 George Ezra - Blame It On Me (50-22-19-14-11-16-11-7-5-15-36-41-61-xx) [13 wks]

Little Mix kick us off with "Salute", the third single to be taken from the album of the same name. Their sole entry in this countdown, poor "Word Up!". It was initially an album highlight for me but I grew quite tired of it - maybe others did, to try and explain the drops it had when leaving the top 10? Trifoski BJSC smash "Sunlight" follows, a song by solo act The Magician and featuring newcomers Years & Years, not a cover of the Diana Vickers song of the same name. The #7 multichart peak is a snap of the peak it achieved in the UK. DJ David Guetta is next, still currently charting with "Dangerous" which spent two weeks at #8. UK #1 "Lovers On The Sun" does not feature. Canadian Kiesza is at #72 with "No Enemiesz", a flop by the standards that she set herself as her previous two singles were both multichart #1s! Shame as it's the best single of the three in my opinion. Finishing on the same number of points but achieving a more impressive peak is "Blame It On Me", the bearable single from George Ezra. 5-15-36 looks a bit ouch though, a run that Cheryl would be proud of x

Salute is quite good but they've released better. Thinking about it actually Move was the only one from the current era that I properly liked.

Sunlight and Dangerous are both brilliant heart.gif hope to see more dance representation in here.

No Enemiesz was quite the let down from her previous 2 singles sad.gif

Blame It On Me is very good for a MOR song, glad he's having success right now to show the Sam Smiths of the world how to not bore people to sleep (haven't actually listened to the album though)

'Sunlight' peaking at #7 here as well as in the UK, very appropriate *. If only it had come 7th in BJSC as well ~

Salute never particularly tired on me but IIRC it did start to drop quite quickly on my chart after a couple of months so I may have contributed to that quick drop anyway oop.

70 681 Shakira feat. Rihanna - Can't Remember To Forget You (3-3-3-3-5-5-8-20-26-34-45-xx) [11 wks]
69 685 Neon Jungle - Braveheart (49-58-31-11-9-5-4-6-9-18-22-35-52-63-74-66-68-xx) [17 wks]
68 686 George Ezra - Budapest (32-15-7-7-10-7-8-15-22-27-31-45-xx) [11 wks]
67 690 Nicole Scherzinger - Your Love (42-25-13-11-15-23-15-13-19-25-41-38-40-64-xx-70-72-xx) [16 wks]
66 691 Ella Eyre - Comeback (72-61-35-27-27-16-17-9-7-4-8-22-31-37-xx) [14 wks]

Kicking off the 66-70 section, we see a duet of two of the noughties biggest females and given Buzzjack's adoration of female popstars, this was a certified Multichart smash, yes? Well, sort of, but not quite. After an average placing in the official charts, Shakira made a monster debut at #3 in the Multichart. But despite that, it never quite made it any higher as the behemoth pairing of Clean Bandit and Katy B kept them at bay. The song disappeared in 11 weeks.

Although it's one of my favourite songs of the year, Neon Jungle have to settle for the coveted #69 spot in the Multichart of 2014. Sticking around for an impressive 17 weeks, Neon Jungle proved they weren't quite just another Parade. They peaked at #4, kept behind the aforementioned trio of Clean Bandit, Katy B and Shakira and despite its long run, 7 of these weeks being outside of the top 40 mean that 'Braveheart' merely scrapes inside the end of year top 75.

Being the foursome of Neon Jungle by a single point, it's new kid on the block George Ezra. In comparison to Neon Jungle, a peak of #7 and 11 weeks on the chart seems pretty shoddy but unlike the girls, every single one of his weeks on the Multichart bar one was inside the top 40. Although, part of the reasoning for that is because the song died a very sudden death, with a hefty drop from #45, to missing the next weeks' chart. Oops.

At #67, we have a song that missed the top 10, quite surprising for an artist as popular as Nicole Scherzinger, but she's still managed to do do do do do do do do do do do do do well enough to crack the top 75, due to sticking around for 16 weeks, including a 2 week re-entry. But with a less than shamazing peak of #11, even this is rather impressive.

Finally, the #66 position is occupied by Ella Eyre, who enjoyed much more success in the Buzzjack Mutichart than she did in the UK charts. 'Comeback' spent four weeks in the top 10, peaking at a rather impressive #4. However, five weeks later, it was nowhere to be seen. Quite a boomerang run it enjoyed, that it would probably be more fitting for Scherzy baby... and unlike Ella, Nicole actually DID "comeback" into the charts. Gah, such scraping of the pun barrel.

65 692 Oliver Heldens & Becky Hill - Gecko (Overdrive) (67-46-27-26-19-8-5-8-14-22-27-36-40-37-66-xx) [15 wks]
64 696 Charli XCX - Break the Rules (33-17-18-18-19-16-13-17-25-32-30-36-44-58-xx-68-xx) [15 wks]
63 704 Zhu - Faded (70-60-47-42-42-44-54-61-34-24-13-10-16-15-23-34-39-48-64-xx) [19 wks]
62 706 John Legend - All of Me (41-25-18-16-13-14-19-18-22-23-29-38-52-64-48-xx-70-xx) [16 wks]
61 706 Cher Lloyd - Sirens (61-52-60-64-xx-64-45-40-38-40-31-35-19-16-11-19-31-34-43-50-61-xx) [20 wks]

Gecko by Oliver Heldens was a BJSC entry once upon a time, but it ended up getting a vocal remix with Becky Hill lending her wonderful voice to the track and subsequently improving it. Gecko (Overdrive) became a UK #1 hit, and got to a respectable #5 here. The video is worth mentioning too lol, purely for how utterly odd it is. The video for single #2 Last All Night (Koala) isn't exactly "normal" but it's not quite as weird as this thankfully laugh.gif

mr_aly favourite Break the Rules by Charli XCX never made it into the multichart top 10 but thanks to some good top 20 longevity, it quite comfortably made the top 75 of the year. The track was a bit of a failure in the UK charts, flopping into the low end of the top 40 and flopping back out. I'd have liked to see it do better but ultimately it tired on me quite quickly. sad.gif

Zhu is some anonymous DJ, with his Facebook page saying "Music is Faceless. Let my music tell my story". Right. I wouldn't let a song like Faded tell his story, cause I'm sat here thinking he's very dull thanks to that track. happy.gif

CHART SAVIOUR John Legend is at #62, just missing out on #61 due to having a lower peak. The monster hit seems despised by many on Buzzjack now but once upon a time, it was quite liked by the peoples of the forum as it's almost done enough for the top 60. All of Me sadly wasn't quite the saviour of the multichart in the same way it has been in the UK sadly but it did very well, a #13 peak for a track that actually came last in the Reshuffle of the Year isn't bad laugh.gif

Finally, Cher Lloyd's Sirens was extremely unlucky. It made #41 in the UK and #11 here, where is the justice??? cry.gif It's not a bad track although I can't help but feel it's a bit overrated. Anyway, it was no doubt helped here by its really drawn out release, charting initially when released in the US and returning and peaking during its UK release.

60 707 One Direction - Steal My Girl (54-30-22-18-10-9-12-10-16-15-19-29-37-...) [13+ wks]

59 709 Ellie Goulding - Goodness Gracious (55-13-10-12-12-9-7-9-7-14-24-46-61-xx) [13 wks]

58 709 Ed Sheeran - Thinking Out Loud (58-75-xx-66-29-19-8-3-2-7-10-18-18-20-22-...) [14+ wks]

57 712 Pitbull feat. Ke$ha - Timber (35-44-36-45-38-44-27-26-20-14-14-3-2-2-4-4-6-16-22-28-39-31-53-66-xx) [24 wks]

56 736 Pharrell Williams - Happy (71-21-12-5-5-6-8-8-16-18-21-23-23-24-49-52-70-xx) [17 wks]

Top 60 and we have the first single from "FOUR", the fourth album from One Direction (if you didn't guess that from the title). "Steal My Girl" was the first glance of a slightly more mature style from the group and it appeared to go down well, getting a #9 peak. As with our song at #58, One Direction were still charting at the end of the year and suffer from perhaps not being able to 'complete' their run.

THE DRAMA as Ellie Goulding and Ed Sheeran find themselves in a tie. ohmy.gif And can you believe it, Ed actually wins out due to having the higher peak. Do I find myself on the wrong site? Both songs were third singles to be taken from parent albums ("Halcyon Days" and "x"). "Goodness Gracious" is fabulous though I'd guess not a particular Ellie highlight for many. It had a nice 9-7-9-7 top 10 run but was soon out after that, seems to be a thing for post-album singles if we look back on "Salute" and "Blame It On Me". Though monster hit "Thinking Out Loud" tries to dispute that, I never realised that this managed to be a top 2 hit after all the hate Ed seems to get on here (and that ladies and gentlemen is why I no longer mod this forum).

Then we come to two of the first big hits of the year, the amazing "Timber" and the awful "Happy". "Timber" is at a disadvantage as the chart run is split roughly in half between years, with the 2014 run included in the points starting at the week it climbs to #3. The impressive overall run is helped by how long it took for the UK release to come about after the premiere.

And the biggest song of 2014 in the UK is only #56 here. Who knew this managed to spend two weeks top 5 once upon a time, doesn't everyone rightly hate this now?

hi.gif guys

'Do It Again' lands at #55, a song which saw the Scandinavian trio of Röyksopp and Robyn joining forces once again. Their previous collaboration 'The Girl & The Robot' reached a multichart summit of #17, though 'Do It Again' managed to peak two places higher.

Sandra Neilsen's 'Undo', Sweden's Eurovision 2014 entry is #52. A song I don't think much of really, and only serves to make me wonder why the much superior 'Calm After The Storm' isn't present here.

A total of THREE UK #1 hits in this section; the first being Route 94 & Jess Glynne's 'My Love' #54, months after finishing in the top 30 in BJSC, it proved to be one of the most successful dance tracks of 2014, and reached a peak of #6 on the multichart. MAGIC! are at #53 with their mildly catchy, but mostly irritating smash hit 'Rude'. The final of the three is the bright and highly likeable (at least to me) 'Am I Wrong' by Nico & Vinz, a song that picked up steam in Europe and then eventually in the USA, leading to it becoming a two-week chart topper in the UK, and a Multichart #6 to boot!
