40. Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams





Kicking off the top 40 we have the 5th single from the 1989 era, Taylor Swift's gorgeous and one of her best songs ever, Wildest Dreams heart.gif The track charted for two weeks at #40 with its removal from streaming harming its UK chart performance. A beautiful classic and the video is amaze too *.*

this is one of the hardest ones in this quiz with Rush being the only person to guess correctly! other guesses are bops like I'm A Mess and queen Eliza Doolittle. I did make this one rly hard kink.gif


Points:
Rush - 2pts

Wrong Guesses:
Chrissmith276 - Lily Allen
Mango - Alicia Keys
Jade - HAIM
SamJudd - Eliza Doolittle - Let It Rain
Bjork - Pink - What About Us
MrAndrewMan - Coldplay
PeteFromLeeds - Lana Del Rey
Riser - Bebe Rexha - I'm A Mess

39. Lady Gaga - Million Reasons





At 39 we have Lady Gaga's gorgeous Million Reasons, which spent a single week in the top 40 officially in the UK, whilst being a top 5 hit like Wildest Dreams in the US. This is such a beautiful moment from Joanne and this feels way more remembered than originally expected as it seemed to probs get the biggest catalogue boost for Gaga from the ASIB exposure <3

this one goes better with just over a third of you getting this correct! wrong guesses are mostly ppl just guessing artists and hoping for luck, whilst also having the ultimate screech song mentioned *.*

Points:
Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, SamJudd, Bjork, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts

Wrong Guesses:
MrAndrewMan - Coldplay
PeteFromLeeds - Kesha
Dan1751 - Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody
Riser - Demi Lovato - Stone Cold

I'm pretty sure I guessed Taylor Swift for at least 2 songs - should've known there would be even more rotf.gif

Glad I got Gaga wub.gif

38. Lizzo - Juice





At 38 we have a major bop from Lizzo, with Juice still being my fave song by her. This was Lizzo's first top 40 hit in the UK and spent a week in the top 40 at 38 and 8 weeks top 75! an utter bop that I always get my life to *.*

this one was nearly a full house with 18 out of 22 getting it correct! the two wrong guesses were a forgotten dance hit and the devil's incarnate x

Points:
Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Vibe, Bjork, West, Coi, MrAndrewMan, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, Riser, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts

Wrong Guesses:
Mack - Breach - Jack
N4yr - Jess Glynne

37. Anne Marie - Heavy





At 37 we have Heavy from Anne-Marie, a bop that I actually forgot even went top 40 until I did this, it actually spent 3 weeks top 40 and peaked at 37! This isn't a major AM fave of mine but its still an underrated bop.

this was another pretty easy one with most of Anne-Marie's first era singles having v. similar single covers but with different colours and 17 of you got this one correct!

Points:
Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, West, Coi, MrAndrewMan, JimWatts, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, Riser, Rush, :') - 2pts

The Lizzo cover was really distinctive for me! I immediately recognised that purple one as Anne-Marie too but had to double check the song.

36. Kelly Clarkson - I Do Not Hook Up





And completing our first set of 5 at 36 we have Kelly Clarkson's absolute bop I Do Not Hook Up, this is so underrated and deserved to be such a bigger smash. Kelly is one of my all time faves and this was the 2nd single from All I Ever Wanted and it underperformed compared to expectations, with only one week top 40 sad.gif 8 year old me bopped to this 24/7 at the time.

this one was a bit harder than the last couple with it being less recent but 10 of you still managed to get it correct, with two more recognising that this was Kelly! the wrong guesses are pretty much other successful female artists I stan.

Points:
Chrissmith276, Scene, Mack, SamJudd, Bjork, Riser, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts

Jade, N4yr - 1pt (got artist, no guess for song)
West - 1pt (got artist, went for my life would suck without you)

Wrong Guesses:
Jordan Lee - Meghan Trainor
Mango - Madonna
MrAndrewMan - Cheryl
PeteFromLeeds - Rachel Platten

I had a strong feeling that was Kelly Clarkson and even searched up single covers to check, I somehow must have skipped over that one! laugh.gif

Pleased to have 1 point at least kink.gif

35. Calvin Harris feat. HAIM - Pray To God





At 35, we have Pray To God which teamed up DJ superstar Calvin Harris and indie faves HAIM for this banger. This was my immediate fave from Motion and I'd acc say this is my fave Calvin song ever, HAIM elevate this much and its so euphoric, a fab team up <3 this peaked at 35 for two weeks and spent three weeks in the top 40, this deserved the success of Calvin's 18 months singles sad.gif

oops this one was def one of the hardest one, with only 4 of you picking up points and most leaving this blank!

Points:
Dan, SamJudd, Riser, Rush - 2pts

Wrong Guesses:
Chrissmith276 - Halsey
Mango - CharliXCX
Jade, West - Beyonce
MrAndrewMan - Eminem
PeteFromLeeds - Katy Perry

I also stupidly thought that there wouldn't be 2 singles by the same artist on here, which will probably screw me blink.gif

At least I wasn't the only person to put Beyoncé kink.gif all I could guess was something related to that live-action version of The Lion King oops

I do love 'Pray To God' though wub.gif

34. M83 - Midnight City





And at 34, we have Midnight City, a song with male vocals ohmy.gif This is a banger of life and this spent four weeks top 40 in 2012, peaking at 34. A classic which I still listen to regularly <3

this one was better for you guys with just under half of you getting this correct, more than I was expecting *.* most the wrong answers are other indie artists/dance acts!

Chrissmith276, Scene, Dan, LewisGT, Coi, MrandrewMan, Dan1751, Riser, Rush, Cremey - 2pts

Wrong Guesses:
Mango - Christine & The Queens
Jade - Bastille

OK I see the theme now laugh.gif I think it would have been almost impossible to get the theme if you didn't get most of them right though!

for artists with more than one songs, I think there's only two artists that have more than one song (and one I just realised now oops who was only meant to have one song in this, so there was only meant to be one) so that won't affect y'all too badly!
