February 7, 201114 yr Author 17 Muse 'Undisclosed Desires' (280 points) R8OOWcsFj0U Top votes: 152 Chris (2nd), NickF1 (4th) Taken from 2009 album 'The Resistance' this second single was released in some territories last year.
February 7, 201114 yr Author 17 Hot Chip 'I Feel Better' (280 points) 5GOZjlwIwfk Top votes: NickF1 (5th), Tony (5th) Another song released from one of the years earlier albums, this was the second single and became their lowest charting in the UK for 6 years.
February 7, 201114 yr Author 15 Kele 'Tenderoni' (290 points) bdQioZHYpvQ Top votes: 152 Chris (1st), The Viper (5th), Mancunian Giraffe (5th) The debut solo single from Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke, this was a change of direction from normal Bloc Party output. I'm still waiting for Princess Superstar to start singing. LET ME HEAR YOU SCREAM IF YOU WANT SOME MORE
February 7, 201114 yr I Feel Better is certainly one of the best singles by Hot Chip.. Shame it didn't do very well charts-wise.
February 9, 201114 yr 'Tenderoni' shouldn't be that high! Bleh. It only made my list because I didn't like the majority of what was put forward and I had at least enjoyed listening to Tenderoni once.
February 10, 201114 yr Author TENDERONI :wub: And I definitely did not put undisclosed desires second... You are correct, it should've been Mancunian Giraffe.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 15 Crystal Castles 'Baptism' (290 points) vStjmYxetY0 Top votes: Dandy (1st), 152 Chris (2nd) Another act who've been something of a favourite on BuzzJack in the past year with the release of their second self-titled album, this is Crystal Castles first song which appears of the four which were nominated. It's somewhat different to the others.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 14 Hot Chip 'One Life Stand' (299 points) mPXPIx1LlPY Top votes: Pablo Honey (1st), The Viper (4th), Titty (5th) After their first entry finished just outside the top 15 this finishes just inside. The lead single from their 2010 album.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 13 Mumford & Sons 'The Cave' (315 points) fNy8llTLvuA Top votes: The Viper (2nd), Steph (4th), RabbitFurCoat (5th), Suedehead (5th) 2010 was definitely the year of Mumford and Sons as they got bigger and bigger throughout. This single never made the UK top 30 but sold well in excess of 100,000 copies and its parent album spent most of the year in the top 10 going on to sell just shy of a million. They're even a rarity in a British band who's gone to America and had very good success over there.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 12 Vampire Weekend 'Giving Up the Gun' (319 points) bccKotFwzoY Top vote: West (1st) Vampire Weekend certainly had one of the most anticipated album of the year, following up their self-titled 2008 debut widely regarded as one of the decade's finest. They did a stellar job in doing so and this second single from it was probably the standout from it.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 11 Crystal Castles 'Celestica' (324 points) IsxNUl1IHnE Top vote: Alin (2nd) The song which whet everyones appetite for one of 2010s best albums, 'Celestica' was the lead single from 'Crystal Castles' and was something of a departure from their usual sound, it was still fabulous nontheless.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 10 The Drums 'Let's Go Surfing' (326 points) CeZbbx5SPTs Top vote: Harve (2nd) Originally released in the autumn of 2009 their debut album was released last summer and the re-release of this soon followed. They didn't really perform anywhere near as much as the hype suggested in the end, but unfortunately their album didn't compare to the greatness of their early singles such as this and 'I Felt Stupid'.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 09 The Naked and Famous 'Young Blood' (347 points) WdO85Qf4Poc Top vote: Mikey (2nd) New Zealand's finest probably came to most people's attention in the first Unknown Pleasures last summer. They're huge in their home country and deservedly so, this is due for another release in the UK shortly and they'll be getting a fairly big push.
February 11, 201114 yr Author 08 Gorillaz 'On Melancholy Hill' (366 points) 04mfKJWDSzI Top votes: Pablo Honey (2nd), Suedehead (3rd), Richie (4th) One of the few songs from 'Plastic Beach' which didn't feature any guest vocalists, this was the third and final single to be taken from it and shows Damon Albarn still has it.
February 11, 201114 yr This list has gone all weird: two songs by Crystal Castles and The Naked and Famous at #9? But yay On Melancholy Hill! Edited February 11, 201114 yr by SKOB
