#66 is a much better position for "Hurt", I'm glad it's finally getting some recognition in this countdown. I'd always thought low top 200 was far too low for it, it's one of her best.

Now I'm into the songs that made the 2010 Record Of The Decade Final.

 

Any points ties were split by their respective averages in their Record Of The Year Games.

 

50 50 50 117 70 Sugababes - Overload 86

 

49 167 57 44 X Linkin Park - In The End 98

 

48 27 14 8 X Nelly Furtado - Maneater 98

 

The Sugababes (1.0) debut single finishes at #50 for the third year running; the epic rock track from Hybrid Theory climbs a massive 118 places; and Nelly's comeback single from her last English speaking album (Loose) falls for the 3rd year running.

 

Wow :mellow: ^ As if that Sugababes song managed to get so high, it's fukking awful! :puke: - <3 'In The End'; 'Maneater' should have been at least Top 30!

47 53 121 67 149 Riva ft Dannii Minogue - Who Do You Love Now? 103

 

46 41 28 23 14 Sugababes - Push The Button 109

 

45 X X X X Little Boots – Remedy 110

 

(Obviously) Simon Cowell least favourite judge on X-Factor climbs 6 places in reaching the Top 50 for the first time; the second of five appearances in the Final 50 for the first three versions of the Sugababes sees a 5 place fall; and a debut for Blackpool's Victoria Hesketh whom I really wish the very best of luck in the future, as the backlash she suffered due to her Record Company/PR completely mucking up her debut album release(s) is amongst the worst I've witnessed in nearly 30 years of following music.

44 14 39 129 X Girls Aloud - Something Kinda Oooh 110

 

43 177 114 137 45 Aaliyah - Try Again 121

 

42 88 X X X Katy Perry - Hot N Cold 124

 

A 30 place falls sees the first of four Girls Aloud songs in the Top 50; a 144 place climb to a new peak for the late great Aaliyah on an early Timbaland classic; and Katy Perry's much better follow up (IMHO) to I Kissed A Girl climbs an impressive 46 places.

41 7 X X X Lady GaGa - Just Dance 129

 

40 X X X X Lady GaGa – Paparazzi 134

 

39 8 2 X X Nelly Furtado – Say It Right 150

 

Now could this be significant with regards to the top end of the countdown?????? Two songs by the biggest artist in pop right now ..... her breakthrough single falls a monster 34 places from last year's debut; and the wonderful Paparazzi debuts at #40; whilst Woah (at) Nelly's fall in two years for this Timbaland produced track.

 

I'm glad "Say It Right" has fallen so far, never got why Buzzjack considered it one of the 10 best records of the decade. It'd probably only just make my top 10 songs she features on.

 

I think we overrated GaGa a bit last year as well. "Just Dance" was still fresh in everyone's minds, a current chart hit, but she's done better tracks since then.

38 18 100 X X Kelly Clarkson - Behind These Hazel Eyes 153

 

37 33 31 59 39 Sugababes – Hole In The Head 153

 

36 59 42 48 42 All Saints - Pure Shores 153

 

Kelly Clarkson epic Breakaway track falls 20 places from last year; the Sugababes drift just 4 places downwards from last year; and All Saints classic #1 from 2000 climbs 23 places to bow out with a peak position.

 

<3 Say It Right & Behind These Hazel Eyes. SHOCKER at GaGa being so low on BuzzJack :heehee:
Pleasanly surprised we haven't had "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" yet, and shocked "American Idiot" has never been in the top 200 before :o it's clealry aged well :D
  • Author

35 6 46 130 62 Girls Aloud - Biology 160

 

34 21 37 21 31 Green Day - Boulevard Of Broken Dreams 161

 

33 153 11 38 29 Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For? 163

 

Three songs spending their 5th straight year on the countdown ....... A biggish drop from the Top 10 for Girls Aloud Chemistry hit single; a fall of 13 places for the seminal American Idiot single; and a massive climb of 120 places (perhaps as it was "ripping off" the early 1980s before it as the vogue thing to do, and the video's a bit proto GaGa-ish) for the No Doubt singer.

32 151 47 91 33 Sugababes – Freak Like Me 166

 

31 55 176 105 X Beyoncé - Irreplaceable 167

 

30 48 35 35 81 Girls Aloud – Sound Of The Underground 170

 

Another three songs spending their maximum number of years on the countdown (all with their highest finish to date). The Sugababes 2.0 first single rebounds 119 places from last year's blip (a great Glastonbury Festival live clip IMHO); Beyonce continues to climb for the 3rd straight year to hit a chart peak; as does Girls Aloud's excellent debut single (hopefully the most talented member of One True Voice can finally enjoy a UK#1 hit single on the next Dizzee Rascal single).

29 X X X X Lily Allen – The Fear 170

 

28 X X X X Kelly Clarkson – My Life Would Suck Without You 173

 

27 11 4 12 3 Shakira – Whenever Wherever 176

 

Next up comes two 2009 UK chart topping singles by artists who have benefited from having songs covered on Glee - from last year's Best Female at the BRITs & the original American Idol winner respectively; and Columbia's second most famous export falls out of the Top 20 for the very first time.

26 82 17 27 21 Madonna - Hung Up 180

 

25 25 84 74 71 Spiller ft. Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) 180

 

24 22 111 22 X Pink - Who Knew 182

 

Up next are three more Buzzjack favourites: Her Madgesty, the Queen of Pop graces the Top 50 with the Abba ((Gimme Gimme Gimme) A Man After Midnight) sampling dance floor anthem produced by Stuart Price (see Kylie's next single); the track that (hilariously - or was it a curse sent by Sir Alex Ferguson (re: Star Stories :lol:)) stopped Victoria Beckham having a solo #1 hit single is a non mover at #25; and Pink's second most popular single on this countdown falls just 2 places.

23 60 54 93 89 t.A.T.u – All The Things She Said 185

 

22 19 26 14 30 Killers - Somebody Told Me 186

 

21 20 15 49 X Amy Winehouse - Rehab 190

 

Up to a new peak is the second highest song that was not in last year's Top 50, nor is a new (2009) song - that is produced by the legend that is Trevor Horn; up next to minor fallers from the Killers; and the Award winning record that started a retro-soul bandwagon by an artist before she turned into the female Pete Doherty.

I'm actually fiarly suprised at how decent most of these results are. The top 20 is pretty much all made up of great songs and even the entire top 100 doesnt have anything all that $h!t in it.
Nice enough list! Surprised at 'Like A Pill' is in there, where did Who Knew chart? :unsure:

Since my favourite song failed to make the top 20 and neither the Arctics or The Killers have any chance of winning, I'll just be happy to see Snow Patrol beat Leona's abomination.
