Don't You Remember is my fave song from album now. I wish that I gave to DYR a 11 instead to Set Fire To The Rain.

 

You have great taste! haha

Sorry guys, what a disaster, I'll Be Waiting had a score of 304, and thus should be 8th:

 

I'll Be Waiting

 

 

But we had time against us, And miles between us,

The heavens cried, I know I left you speechless,

 

Highest score - 10 (Liam, JakeWild, Sparky2904,Crowan,nicco,Frank!)

Lowest score - 3 (Andrew*)

 

So next it's the rather brilliant mid tempo I'll Be Waiting. In my opinion, this should be higher as it's a highlight of the album for me, but you guys place it 8th.

 

So after my mishap, the results should now read:

 

10 - Lovesong

9= - One & Only

9= - He Won't Go

8 - I'll Be Waiting

7 - Take It All

6 - Don't You Remember

 

Apologies again guys!

 

And onto the top 5...

 

5th - 325 points

 

Rolling In The Deep

 

 

Think of me, in the depths of your despair,

Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared

 

Highest score - 11 (Liam, Thriller101, Dandy*, WILLRO713, Hitstastic, HiVickers)

Lowest score - 1.5 (Jonjo)

 

Now, in a CRIMINAL turn of events, the best song on the album, and the massive lead single, Rolling In The Deep finishes 5th. As my 2nd favourite single of 2011 (behind, surprise surprise, Judas by Lady Gaga), this deserves to top this rate but while it received 6 11s, it also also received a 1.5 from Jonjo (who I know has said RITD is one of the worst songs of the year :(). I BLAME YOU JONJO :snif:

 

4th - 325.5 points

 

Rumour Has It

 

 

Bless your soul, you got your head in clouds

You made a fool out of you and boy she's bringing you down

 

Highest score - 11 (Paulouk83)

Lowest score - 4.5 (Jonjo)

 

And in 4th we have another mid-tempo, and a strong contender for 4th UK single. Personally, it's actually my 4th favourite on the album, behind RITD, SLY and SFTTR, so I agree with how you placed it! Despite it only garnering 1 11, it got a 4.5 as a lowest score (3 more than RITD, also given by Jonjo!) and earns it place in 4th!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The top 3 will come tomorrow - what will win?

As if 'Rolling in the Deep' only came fifth! :cry: And 'Rumour Has It' deserves to be above 'Turning Tables' at least! :( This is how I think the top three will be now:

 

01. 'Someone Like You'

02. 'Set Fire to the Rain'

03. 'Turning Tables'

 

I'd prefer 'Rolling In The Deep' third with 'Rumour Has It' fourth, though.

Did I take part in this? (I appear to be going round the board complaining that I haven't taken part in rates. WHAT IS MY LIFE?)

 

How DARE Take It All and Don't You Remember be so low?! It's a very strong album but in the bottom few they should not be. The other songs are roughly in the right places - a VERY strong, if not predictable, Top 3.

You did take part in this, yes :P

Ah thank you, I thought I did! ^_^

Turning Tables

 

 

I'll brave a hundred storms to leave you,

As hard as you try no I will never be, knocked down

 

Highest score - 11 (Klumzee, Rain, Sparky9204)

Lowest score - 5 (Andrew*)

 

In 3rd place is the beautiful Turning Tables. As fabulous as the song is, I'd have placed it a bit lower as it's not better than Rolling In The Deep or Rumour Has It. Nevertheless, this is a triumph for Adele and has sold consistently as an album track, helped by Gwenyth Paltrow's (also beautiful) Glee cover in the A Night Of Neglect episode.

 

 

 

So that leaves the (rather predictable) top 2 of Someone Like You and Set Fire To The Rain - which of the two will win? Find out later tonight when I reveal the top 2...

Well this is a bit RUBBISH, I didn't vote because I hadn't listened to it in full back then but Take It All should be MUCH higher. Also RITD at 5 and SFTTR set to win? WHAT

I can't remember what I said I preferred. Perhaps Someone Like You. Is that the winner? Is it? IS IT?!
Rumour Has It, Set Fire, Someone, Rolling and Turning Tables would be my top 5 too :wub:
  • Author
Are you actually going to post the top two, or are we just left to assume the winner? :P

Oh god :drama: I swear I actually did the post the results, I remember typing them out and everything :( I'll get onto it now though!

Set Fire To The Rain

 

 

I let it fall, my heart, and as it fell

You rose to claim it

 

Highest score - 11 (Nick F1, Karma,Pavel, nicco, THEO., Andrew*, Davidson, Sinful, Aidan, Slick, Jester)

Lowest score - 8 (Dandy*, Thriller101, BeautifulAngel)

 

So in 2nd we have the mid-tempo third single Set Fire To The Rain. Personally, I'd put it a tiny bit lower but of course the wider opinion is otherwise, as the song managed 11 11s :o The lowest score given was a respectable 8, which shows this song truly is a fan favourite. Sadly Adele STILL has made a video for this, and she seems to be leaving it too late - hopefully she makes one for the US release eh?

 

 

 

So we all know what that means...

Someone Like You

 

 

 

Nothing compares, no worries or cares,

Regrets and mistakes they're memories made,

Who would've know how bittersweet this would taste...

 

Highest score - 11 (JakeWild, Viper*, Jonjo, Aled., Davidson, LϴVETT, CHЯIS., AaronTM, Crowan, Leonardo, Gaga for Glee!, starryeyed, Frank!, BeautifulAngel, Aphrodite)

Lowest score - 9 (Nick F1, Andrew*, Thriller101)

 

And by a kitten's whisker, the winner is the beautiful ballad Someone Like You. Performed at the 2011 BRITS, Someone Like You was propelled to number on iTunes, prompting it to be made 2nd single, and managed 4 weeks at the top of the chart before being knocked off by Nicole Scherzinger's Don't Hold Your Breath. But the week after, it returned to the top for another week, thus becoming the longest running (non-consecutive) number 1 - consecutively it is tied with LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem. Like the single following it, it also lacked a video - but the haunting BRITS performance was used instead. Obviously it did it no harm - as the single has already sold 1 million in less than a year, a feat not accomplished since Tony Christie/Peter Kay in 2005. Personally it is my 2nd favourite on the album and I think it's a throughly great winner ^_^
