Results after I've just had dinner so will accept votes until then, if things don't change then tonight will see a qualifier beat the 5th place of 'Unfaithful' and the most surprising auto qualifier of this year, if not in the five year history of the game!

Really excited now... but I bet the surprise auto qualifier is some indie rubbish that all the fanz voted for :manson:
"Out Of Time" has got to be in with a shot, pleasantly surprised (for a change) that this got so many high votes.

50 - NE Busted 'Year 3000' 64

49 - 42 Richard X vs Liberty X 'Being Nobody' 76

48 - 47 Delta Goodrem 'Born to Try' 76

47 - NE Room 5 ft. Oliver Cheetham 'Make Luv' 97

46 - 28 Stacie Orrico '(There's Gotta Be) More To Life' 100

45 - NE Kylie Minogue 'Slow' 101

44 - 34 Goldfrapp 'Strict Machine' 103

43 - NE XTM & DJ Chuckie pts. Annia 'Fly On The Wings of Love' 104

42 - NE Junior Senior 'Move Your Feet' 104

41 - NE Benny Benassi 'Satisfaction' 105

40 - 24 Holly Valance 'State of Mind' 107

39 - 32 Delta Goodrem 'Innocent Eyes' 108

38 - 33 Girls Aloud 'Jump' 111

37 - 23 Linkin Park 'Numb' 111

36 - 09 Will Young 'Leave Right Now' 112

 

Over half of the qualifying songs fall out straight away in what was by far the tightest contest so far, more songs reached 100 points, whilst the songs finishing in 10th and 3rd had a lower points tally than in all previous rounds, and it's not because of fewer voters. Going with his massive fall in the 2004 game Will Young takes an almighty tumble here too as Leave Right Now drops from the top 10 to failing to qualify by just one point.

 

35 - NE Missy Elliott 'Gossip Folks' 113

34 - 29 Dannii Minogue 'I Begin To Wonder' 117

33 - NE Darkness 'I Believe In A Thing Called Love' 121

32 - 20 Tomcraft 'Loneliness' 125

31 - 22 Emma Bunton 'Maybe' 126

30 - 35 Libertines 'Don't Look Back Into The Sun' 127

29 - NE Tatu 'Not Gonna Get Us' 137

28 - 19 Avril Lavigne 'I'm With You' 138

27 - 25 Britney Spears & Madonna 'Me Against The Music' 140

 

"Out Of Time" has got to be in with a shot, pleasantly surprised (for a change) that this got so many high votes.

Out Of Time had more top 2 placings than any other song in the round (4 1sts + 2 2nds) however it was only in three other votes picking up 22 points from them, so unfortunately it isn't that.

 

26 - NE Blur 'Out Of Time' 140

25 - 17 Black Eyed Peas 'Shut Up' 140

24 - 11 Blu Cantrell ft. Sean Paul 'Breathe' 143

23 - 16 Evanescence 'My Immortal' 145

22 - 27 Delta Goodrem 'Lost Without You' 146

21 - 10 Dido 'White Flag' 154

20 - 18 Justin Timberlake 'Cry Me A River' 157

19 - 41 Electrix Six 'Danger! High Voltage' 158

18 - 40 Christina Aguilera 'The Voice Within' 161

17 - 15 Black Eyed Peas 'Where Is the Love?' 162

16 - 38 Rachel Stevens 'Sweet Dreams My LA Ex' 163

15 - 05 Christina Aguilera 'Beautiful' 169

14 - 13 Jamelia 'Superstar' 177

13 - 14 Kelly Rowland 'Stole' 196

12 - 03 Sugababes 'Hole in the Head' 198

11 - 30 No Doubt 'It's My Life' 198

 

Again, four songs out of last years top 10 and again the top 3 don't all make it as Sugababes continue their run of falling with every song so far (apart from Ugly which was a qualifier), Dido and Christina Aguilera (another that's never missed the final with a lowest position of 34 overall) join them in falling out.

 

10 - 07 Misteeq 'Scandalous' 199

09 - 08 Evanescence 'Bring Me To Life' 200

08 - 06 Coldplay 'Clocks' 212

07 - 21 Michael Andrews ft. Gary Jules 'Mad World' 215

06 - 12 White Stripes 'Seven Nation Army' 220

05 - 04 Christina Aguilera 'Fighter' 225

04 - 31 Girls Aloud 'No Good Advice' 248

 

 

Misteeq, Evanescence (by 2 points, to the displeasure of Bre), Coldplay and Christina Aguilera all hold their top 10 positions and are joined by Michael Andrews and Gary Jules Xmas number one, the White Stripes and a Girls Aloud song which almost fell out of the top 35 last year.

 

Really excited now... but I bet the surprise auto qualifier is some indie rubbish that all the fanz voted for :manson:

 

Well I wouldn't call a #39 hit, cover version of an industrial rock band by a deceased country singer born 79 years ago indie, but all the fans of indie music voting in this did award points to Johnny Cash....

 

03 - 26 Johnny Cash 'Hurt' 252

02 - 02 Tatu 'All The Things She Said' 289

01 - 01 Beyonce ft. Jay-Z 'Crazy In Love' 315

 

Predictably the top 3 remain the same but the big surprise is 'Hurt' qualifying for the final.

 

The qualifiers so far:

 

Amy Winehouse 'Back to Black'

Beyonce ft. Jay-Z 'Crazy In Love'

Beyonce 'Irreplaceable'

Britney Spears 'Toxic'

Coldplay 'Viva La Vida'

Girls Aloud 'Biology'

Girls Aloud 'Something Kinda Oooh'

Gwen Stefani 'What You Waiting For?'

Johnny Cash 'Hurt'

Kelly Clarkson 'Since U Been Gone'

The Killers 'Mr Brightside'

Lady GaGa & Beyonce 'Telephone'

Lady GaGa 'Bad Romance'

Lady GaGa 'Just Dance'

Lady GaGa 'Poker Face'

Lily Allen 'The Fear'

Madonna 'Hung Up'

Nelly Furtado 'Maneater'

Rihanna ft. Jay-Z 'Umbrella'

Rihanna 'Disturbia'

Rihanna 'Only Girl (In The World)'

Robyn 'Dancing On My Own'

Robyn 'With Every Heartbeat'

Tatu 'All The Things She Said'

 

The 2002 and 2001 games will be up tonight and close on Wednesday.

Yay for the top 2, but I have to say Johnny Cash really isn't my thing and I think Hurt is quite overrated. I'd have swapped it for My Immortal (23rd, really?) tbh.

Johnny Cash :heart: :wub: :wub: :wub: I wasn't expecting that at all! fantastic though, one of the best covers ever

 

a really good top 10 as well, all of those are excellent :o shame about Junior Senior and Linkin Park though

Still shocked and surprised that "Out Of Time" got so many high votes and a No.26 placing was better than initially expected. Hopefully it will bring it to the attention of a few more people who may have been unaware of it (but I won't hold my breath)...........it is the most underrated of all Blur songs. Actually a decent set of results for both 2003 & 2004 and not just the total all-female domination. How some can vote for 18/19 and even 20 out of 20 songs by female singers for every single year as they have done - it just isn't realistic.

 

:dance: Brilliant result with Johnny Cash making it also (although I do prefer the original Nine Inch Nails version), agreed one of the best covers ever.

I'm not that surprised at Hurt AQing to be honest, it's the sort of song (well, version of a song) that I'd expect to be liked by most of BuzzJack anyway despite not fitting the mould of generic BJ worship song.

 

Grumble moan grumble at Evanescence being so close to not qualifying but I can't say it was my fault this time because I did vote.
