Round 1: Select 10 songs that you dislike the most, from all the years

 

I just picked out the songs I actually liked and still had about half of the US no. 1s still listed. :lol: Even if I removed the songs I don't know, that's still a poor list of chart toppers.

 

The best years are 2001, 2005, 2008 and 2009 going off those chart toppers. 2003, 2004 and 2006 are atrocious!!! :lol:

I agree with 9 of those but I LOVE Inside Your Heaven - reached the top 3 of my personal chart at the time :wub: not as good as Carrie's post American Idol singles, granted - but I see she's not alone and Taylor Hicks, Fantasia and Clay Aiken also feature :lol:

  • Author
I'm sorry, but I didnt even bother listening to those as the idol singles are all pretty much crap. Kelly Clarkson escaped by a whisker :P
I voted 2009 as the best year for US no. 1 hits - the only one I don't particularly rate is 'Crack A Bottle' but even that sounds like a masterpiece compared to those 10 "songs" I chose.

Oh and the first #1 of 2010 is Kesha - Tik Tok. Good to see the new decade start with pop, 10 years after a pop song topped the 2000 chart. But then we all know what happened after 2001...let's hope it wont happen again.

Let's hope not. >_<

 

Downloads has clearly been the best thing to happen to the US charts. Who'd have thought Britney Spears would be no. 1 with '3' when 'Toxic' couldn't ever get there. Obviously radio airplay dominated the charts in the first half of the decade, but 2003-2004 really was a shocking period. 2000 surprises me because whilst some of those no. 1 hits are ok, they don't stand out as defining pop moments. Ie; 'Be With You', 'It's Gonna Be Me', 'I Knew I Loved You', etc.

Heh, for me those are 3 of the best chart toppers, well N*Sync and Enrique. Both were huge hits here, but I realise they werent in the UK.

Physical sales were actually still pretty decent in 2000 (nearly all the best physical sellers of the decade are from 2000), hence the variety, but by 2003 they were dead and so the chart was basically airplay. For Britney to go top10 with Toxic was a huge feat since she was ignored on radio and had no sales to back her up. I still think airlay ruins the chart, for example I think the digital #1 of 2009 are better than the Hot 100 #1s.

Was 'Bye Bye Bye' no. 1 in the US in 1999? I thought that got to no. 1 in the US but in 2000. Lady GaGa was no. 1 on US iTunes for a couple of weeks with 'Bad Romance' but lost out to 'Empire State Of Mind' having mass airplay.

 

It's also like Madonna 'Hung Up' which was completely ignored in the US as if the song didn't exsist yet somehow the track got to no. 9, and when '4 Minutes' was no. 1 on US iTunes, the track dropped 03-07 the same week. If only the US had downloads in 2002, there might've been a better list of no. 1 hits between 2003-2006.

 

Yes, I remember pointless facts like these. :(

I Knew I Loved You was great :D such a nice song - in fact I can't think of a Savage Garden single which I didn't like

 

shame they couldn't get a UK #1 with either Truly Madly Deeply or To The Moon & Back

I wasn't really a Savage Garden fan to be honest. I did like 'Truly Madly Deeply' but I wouldn't say it was one of the best songs in the chart at the time.
