love that Sia song :wub: interesting to hear that about Christina - sounds promising if that's the sort of sound she's going for next time around

 

I'm shocked to see My Life Would Suck Without You here, it's the most generic song of the year - of course that means that I like it (although nowhere near enough to put it anywhere near my chart of the decade) but I didn't know you liked it so much!

75 Lady GaGa - Paparazzi 2009 UK#1

74 Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams 2005 UK#5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdG0vDZJcJ0

 

73 Elbow - Powder Blue 2001 UK#41

I don't care what others think, this is by a mile their best song, and it does not need to rip off Hey Jude either. Stunning lyrically imaginery that has heroin written all over it. Two addicts lost in their mutual love of each other and their drug of choice... "Stumble through the crowds together, they're trying to ignore us, that's OK. I'm proud to be the one you hold when the shakes begin..."

Whilst the slightly disturbing sax followed by the smashing glass at the end surely symbolises the girl OD-ing and the shattering of the illusion of happiness.

 

72 Divine Comedy - Come Home Billy Bird 2004 UK#25

Another melancholic song that tells a story of a father and businessman in a rush to get home to watch his son play rugby. The female vocals on the chorus are by former Kenickie vocalist Lauren Laverne (now a BBC 6 Music DJ).

 

71 Bluetones - After Hours 2002 UK#26

The third song on the bounce that tells a story ... this time the joys of partaking in private alcohol consumption behind closed doors in your local, all over an old school melodic Kinks/Madness type track. Great Bugsy Malone pastiche video too.

70 Marina & The Diamonds - I Am Not A Robot 2009 UK Flop

The second single by an artist who releases her debut album in 2010. Hopefully this Welsh singer/songwriter heavily influenced by the likes of Kate Bush & Lene Lovich will be huge next year. This is her best offering that I have heard to date.

 

69 REM - The Great Beyond 2000 UK#3

68 Sara Bareilles - Love Song 2008 UK#4

67 Coldplay - Viva La Vida 2008 UK#1

 

66 Belle & Sebastian – Step Into My Office Baby 2003 UK#32

The legendary Scottish folk rockers scored a Top 40 hit with this Trevor Horn produced effort of "how's your father" at work. I love the 1970s era Carry On meets the Robin Askwith Confessions Of A .... series of adult movies feel to this video as well.

Love Song :D excellent to see that here, I recall like me that you charted it way before it was released here...

65 TV Eyes - She's A Study 2008 UK Flop

Back in the early 1990s at the heighth of grunge and raprock a band called Jellyfish who made unfashionable euphoric power pop songs inspired by The Beatles, Beach Boys, The Who, Queen, Badfinger, ELO, Supertramp, etc were loved by the critics but the public did not get them even though they were miles better than The Feeling, The Hoosiers, etc. They sadly split after 3 years and two albums and went on to work with artists like Aimee Mann, Beck & Fiona Apple. In 2006 they reformed minus their former lead singer/drummer and with a new name but this time time moved their sound on circa 13 years to be inspired by early 1980s synth electro pop to be inspired by Gary Numan, Duran Duran, Human League, New Order, etc. Of course they failed again to be a success. Although in 2008 Moby licensed this record for release in the UK where it received non playlist airplay on Radio 1 & Radio 2 but again without success. One thing is certain this is infinitely better and cleverer than anything off La Roux's debut album.

60 Prodigy - Girls 2004 UK#19

In 2004 Liam Howlett took a big risk he recorded an album without the vocals of Keith Flint and Maxim Reality. This the lead track featured instead The Magnificent Ping Pong Bitches which at the time the music media assumed it was his wife Natalie Appleton & sister (and parter of Oasis' Liam Gallagher) Nicole Appleton on distorted vocals under a pseudonym. A backlash took place and the single limped into the UK Top 20. Despite that I still think this is the best track the Prodigy have recorded this decade.

 

59 Modest Mouse - Dashboard 2007 UK Flop

The Seattle based American alternative rock band led by Isaac Brock featured new guitarist (& British musical legend) Johhny Marr on composition & a very distinctive guitar riff on a song vastly superior to what his former Smiths partner managed this decade. A far greater success in the USA this sea shanty themed video features Seasick Steve as the bartender.

54 Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For? 2004 UK#4

 

53 Pipettes - Pull Shapes 2006 UK#26

Heaven. Featuring the now only remaining member of this lineup Gwenno on lead vocals on this delightful Motown, meets Northern Soul, meets 1960s Girlgroups track (that blatantly inspired Xenomania to come up with the inferior The Promise for Girls Aloud). The track peaked about 25 places too low in the summer of 2006 chart.

 

52 Queens Of The Stone Age - The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret 2000 UK#31

Josh Homme Stoner neo-psychedelic hard rock outfit released this quite stunning piece of music at the beginning of the decade that has rarely been equalled or surpassed.

49 David Bowie - Everyone Say "Hi!" 2002 UK#20

His 61st & last UK Top 40 hit (to date); sees Britain's greatest ever male artist in rather thoughtful yet humourous mood saying hello to people who have died with a song that musically recalls both his Absolute Beginners single & Hunky Dory album.

 

48 Lily Allen - F$%* @#u 2009 UK Flop (Euro Monster Hit)

Internationally G.W.B. (Guess Who Badman = George W Bush) as the demo was known as, this is Lily's biggest hit. Top 10 all over Europe including #1 in Belgium; A top 40 hit in Australia & Canada & a Billboard Top 100 hit, it has recently topped the Billboard Dance Charts. Strangely never released as a single in the UK.

 

47 Spiller ft Sophie Ellis Bextor - Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) 2000 UK#1

 

46 Black Box Recorder - The Facts Of Life 2000 UK#20

The only UK Top 40 hit for former Autuers frontman Luke Haines; former Jesus & Mary Chain member John Moore & female vocallist Sarah Nixey on this incredibly well remembered pop classic.

45 Killers - Human 2008 UK#3

44 Liberty X - Just A Little 2002 UK#1

 

43 Suzie McNeil - Lonely 2008 UK Flop

The former 4th placed & highest placed female in Rockstars:INXS whom later went on to tour as support to P!nk scored a native Canadian #2 hit behind Madonna's 4 Minutes with this classic sounding adult orientated rock track me of fellow Canadian's Heart.

 

42 Riva ft Dannii Minogue - Who Do You Love Now? 2001 UK#3

 

41 Sheryl Crow - Soak Up The Sun 2002 UK#16

This track that was one of the top 40 selling tracks in the USA in 2002 just oozes summer in California and reminds me of classic mid 1970s Fleetwood Mac. Backing vocals from Liz Phair. Great video. What more can you ask for.

40 Lady GaGa - Bad Romance 2009 UK#1 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbemqh_la...d-romance_music

The most recent song in my decade Top 40 countdown, one of 8 UK#1's in my Decade end Top 40 by the artist of 2009.

 

39 Dandy Warhols - You Were The Last High 2003 UK#34 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1ywrn_da...-last-hig_music

 

Fronted by Courtney Taylor-Taylor this Portland US based indie/alternative art rock band were always too clever for their own good. This track is a truly brilliant pastiche of synth-pop music in 1981, and the video is a wonderful homage to the debut Duran Duran single "Planet Earth" perhaps because the track was co-produced by Duran Duran's Nick Rhodes and features Simon Le Bon guesting on backing vocals.

38 Melanie C ft Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes - Never Be The Same Again 2000 UK#1 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2219r_me...-the-same_music

In retrospect how could a collaboration between the two most talented members of the best UK girlgroup of the 1990s & best USA girlgroup of the 1990s not be brilliant.

 

37 Susanna & The Magical Orchestra - Love Will Tear Us Apart 2006 UK Flop

 

This Norwegian act championed by Radio 2 DJ Mark Radcliffe produced this atmospheric Portishead-like cover version of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart". It featured in two 3rd season episodes of the American medical drama Grey's Anatomy and on 3rd season of Skins. But it also because the Xmas #1 in New Zealand in 2006.

34 Libertines - Don't Look Back Into The Sun 2003 UK#11 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1yj6s_do...o-the-sun_music

The fourth single released by The Libertines. It was released as a single only, therefore not appearing on any albums.

In May 2007, NME magazine placed "Don't Look Back into the Sun" at number 5 in its list of the 50 Greatest Indie Anthems Ever.

 

33 Metric - Gimme Sympathy 2009 UK Flop http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8rqk1_me...-sympathy_music

 

The Canadian indie rock band fronted by Emily Haines failed to chart in the UK with this stunning single despite support from Radio 6 Music & Radio 2.
