August 25, 201014 yr Results so far; 92 Mark Owen 93 Frank Sinatra 94 Daniel Powter 95 Adam Young/Owl City 96 James Blunt 97 John Legend 98 Jonsi Birgisson 99 Mick Jagger 100 Kid Cudi Will post more tomorrow! Mick Jagger below one hit wonders like Owl City and Daniel Powter is quite embarassing- although, I did think Buzzjack wouldnt really vote for him Frank Sinatra is far too low
August 25, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/JoelBilly.jpg 91 Billy Joel (47pts) Stats Votes: 2 Highest Position: 2 Top Ten Finishes: 2 Years Active: 1971-Present Country Of Origin: USA Finish In Nominations Top 100: =80 Ah, Billy Joel one of my favourites. Joel is an accomplished and much celebrated singer/songwriter/pianist. Joel's songs have remained popular throughout the world, Tell Her About It, Just The Way You Are and the perennial party favourite Uptown Girl. Joel's tunes are still popular today as covers. Joel entered the chart again this year, after Fyfe Dangerfield's cover of his previously non-charting She's Always A Woman boosted the original into popular conciousness. Favourite Song: Honesty (from 52nd Street) That's the bottom ten including two of my favourites and a right Blunt! http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/ScriptDanny.jpg 90 Danny O'Donoghue (47pts) Stats Votes: 3 Highest Position: 3 Top Ten Finishes: 1 Years Active: 1996-Present Country Of Origin: Republic Of Ireland Finish In Nominations Top 100: =82 Danny O'Donoghue is the lead singer of Irish band The Script and has been since their early beginnings as Mytown from 1996, The Script have gained in popularity recently, with single Breakeven even going top twenty in America, O'Donoghue has a pleasant enough voice and doesn't struggle with higher notes, fairly appropriate position in chart! O'Donoghue recieved a higher placing than Joel due to vote amount. Favourite Song: Breakeven (from The Script) as part of the Script http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/ChaplinTom.jpg 89 Tom Chaplin (50pts) Stats Votes: 4 Highest Position: 7 Top Ten Finishes: 1 Years Active: 1996-Present Country Of Origin: UK Finish In Nominations Top 100: =99 After just scraping a place through nominations along with another artist yet to chart, Tom Chaplin has managed to jump 11 places. Chaplin is the lead singer of "piano-rock band" Keane, Keane are undoubtably an album band with all of their studio albums topping the UK charts, their debut album, Hopes And Fears was the second biggest-selling album of the year, losing out to James Blunt's Back To Bedlam. However, on Buzzjack he beats him! Favourite Song: Somewhere Only We Know (from Hopes And Fears) as part of Keane
August 25, 201014 yr Danny and Daniel Powter deserve to be higher! The albums they've made have been brilliant and Daniel's are underrated!
August 25, 201014 yr Billy Joel - not a fan Danny - I really like The Script, should been a bit higher! Tom - not a fan of Keane, they really annoy me
August 25, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/RidaFlo.jpg 88 Flo Rida (52pts) Stats Votes: 7 Highest Position: 12 Top Ten Finishes: 0 Years Active: 2006-Present Country Of Origin: USA Finish In Nominations Top 100: =78 Despite having the lowest highest rank of all the artists, Flo Rida recieved more votes so ranks higher. Tramar Dillard or Flo Rida as his friends and me call him is an American rapper who took the Ne-Yo root of naming and rapping, his singles are usually club fodder and thus is dominant in the UK charts, recently noching up his third number one with Club Can't Handle Me. His single Low is another chart mainplayer having spent 75 weeks in the top 100. Favourite Song: Bad Boys (from Alexandra Burke's Overcome) as Alexandra Burke Ft. Flo Rida Sorry for only posting the one there, the next one will be four :-) Edited August 25, 201014 yr by Leonardo2505
August 26, 201014 yr 88 Flo Rida - Definitely the best one from thios selection. Love almost all singles. 93 Frank Sinatra -- Never be a fan. 94 Daniel Powter - nAH- 95 Adam Young/Owl City - Why is he that high? 96 James Blunt - Anohter one annoying, but he have 2 tracks which are prefect. 1973 & Wiseman. 97 John Legend - He is annoying sometimes, always sound the same. 99 Mick Jagger - Always loved his band, definitely one of the greatest bands ever. 100 Kid Cudi - Sometimes I like him, sometimes not, I don't like his personallyti, his music is good.
August 26, 201014 yr Flo Rida is qutie decent considering the genre he's from. Not a fan of Powter though. Annoying voice. I like The Script guy's voice though.
August 26, 201014 yr It doesn't matter that Owl City has only had one hit! I still really enjoy his music. I wasn't sure whether to put him or Morrissey first. I think I would do it differently every time lol
August 26, 201014 yr Flo Rida is OK, really like Club Cant Handle Me Billy Joel of course should be higher- but I was expecting him to be around this position, Tom Chaplin is great- Keane are amazing, Im honestly surprised the lead singer of The Script made it through :o
August 26, 201014 yr Flo Rida is by far my favourite on the list so far. I've pretty much liked every single he's released too. :) Edited August 26, 201014 yr by Chriss_S
August 26, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/Drake.jpg 87 Drake (56pts) Stats Votes: 4 Highest Position: 1 (Sabrina) Top Ten Finishes: 2 Years Active: 2001-Present Country Of Origin: Canada Finish In Nominations Top 100: =40 Drake is a Canadian singer who originally as known as an actor, appearing in Degrassi: The Next Generation, another well established collaborator working with other (higher ranking) top 100 artists such as Eminem, Jay-Z and Kanye West. Drake has had more success than I first realised including a UK & US number one album with Thank Me Later, however I'm still shocked that he made the top 100, as I don't find him that distincive. However, he clearly has his fans and recent single Find Your Love has achieved his best solo charting single. Favourite Song: Forever (from More Than A Game Soundtrack) as Drake Ft. Kanye West, Lil' Wayne & Eminem I'm gonna start doing them more one at a time that way there's less chance of my computer ballsing it up :rolleyes: Edited August 26, 201014 yr by Leonardo2505
August 26, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/LightbodyGary.jpg 86 Gary Lightbody (60pts) Stats Votes: 5 Highest Position: 12 Top Ten Finishes: 0 Years Active: 1994-Present Country Of Origin: UK Finish In Nominations Top 100: =44 Light up! Yes, it's Gary Lightbody from popular Northern Irish band Snow Patrol, Lightbody is the singer/guitarist and songrwriter from the band, who's voice and lyrics are very emotive best expressed in his two most popular songs, Chasing Cars, the longest charting single in the history of the chart and probably in British TV soundtracks & the Leona Lewis-covered Run. Plus, he's one of the few artists from Northern Ireland to achieve major critical acclaim, although the day will come, Nadine! Favourite Song: Run (from Final Straw) as part of Snow Patrol
August 26, 201014 yr Their music may be a bit on the lifeless side but I can't help being entranced by Snow Patrol. Good band.
August 26, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/WardShayne.jpg 85 Shayne Ward (60pts) Stats Votes: 8 Highest Position: 4 Top Ten Finishes: 1 Years Active: 2002, 2005-Present Country Of Origin: UK Finish In Nominations Top 100: =44 Oddly enough Shayne Ward got the same amount of points in the Nomination round as Gary Lightbody and also in the final 100, Ward finishing higher due to more votes, Shayne Ward won the second series of X Factor and the only male X Factor contestant in the 100, sorry to both John and Edward, Ward's managed to release a few decent songs and (apparently according to Wikipedia) achieving great success in Asia! One of the best male voices to come out of the talent circuit and needs better material. Favourite Song: Breathless (from Breathless)
August 27, 201014 yr Author http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/KingBenE.jpg 84 Ben E. King (61pts) Stats Votes: 4 Highest Position: 2 Top Ten Finishes: 1 Years Active: 1958-Present Country Of Origin: USA Finish In Nominations Top 100: =64 IMHO on of the best voices in the business, Ben E. King found fame as one of the Drifters one of the most successful bands of the era, King only sang on 10 Drifters hits, including the great Save The Last Dance For Me. Despite releasing dozens of studio albums, King is best remembered for the beautiful Stand By Me, which was honoured in a movie title based on a Stephen King short story starring the late River Phoenix, which helped the song get to the UK No.1! Favourite Song: Has to be..... Stand By Me (from Don't Play That Song)

King 85 Shayne Ward 86 Gary Lightbody 87 Drake 88 Flo Rida 89 Tom Chaplin 90 Danny O'Donoghue 91 Billy Joel 92 Mark Owen 93 Frank Sinatra 94 Daniel Powter 95 Adam Young/Owl City 96 James Blunt 97 John Legend 98 Jonsi Birgisson 99 Mick Jagger 100 Kid Cudi
August 27, 201014 yr 84 Ben E. King - ??? 85 Shayne Ward - Should have been higher, like I gave him his top rate of #4! 86 Gary Lightbody - couple of ok songs, but glad he isnt higher 87 Drake - suprised he is this high tbh, but I like his last album!
