A couple of awful songs there (especially Down For Whatever and All About Tonight).

 

Why on Earth was Louder by Parade so hated? :lol: Were people threatened by the prospect of a new girl group competing with The Saturdays? :lol:

 

The last of the quadirology of songs to get -50 points is Black And Yellow, a catchy urban song which whiilst never finishing too highly still had a hardcore fanbase on Buzzjack with 12 "5"s putting it ahead of INAD with 2. I would like the song myself if it wasn't for the awful lyric "She ain't a lesbian, but she a freak though". WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

 

A "freak" is urban talk for bisexual girls, or girls that are, I guess, open to a lot of things sexually. So he's saying that although she's not a lesbian, she'll still "do things" with other girls. It's a good thing. :lol:

100. MILITARY WIVES FT. GARETH MALONE & LONDON METROPOLITAN ORCHESTRA - WHEREVER YOU ARE (-37 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1 (in 2011)
OCC PEAK: 1
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 10
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 1
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 5
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -37
RUN: [10]


Starting the top 100 is the last number one of the year, the big Xmas number one, which despite garnering massive sales turned out not to be a very popular song on the Reshuffle Chart.

NB: I almost posted MILITARY WIVES FT. GARETH MALONE & LONDON METROPOLITAN ORCHESTRA - SWEAT, would have been a very different Xmas no. 1!

99. LOU MONTE - DOMINICK THE DONKEY (THE ITALIAN CHRISTMAS DONKEY) (-36 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 3
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 9
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 0
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 6
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -36
RUN: [9]


Next up is the song which nearly came bottom last week, the Chris Moyles' Xmas favourite, the novelty track has never charted before, and dropped out of the top 40 since, and this would probably have been my guiltiest pleasure this year as because I find it quite catchy.

98. JESSIE J - WHO YOU ARE (-35 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2
OCC PEAK: 8
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 9
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 2
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 5
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -18
RUN: [8-9]


At 98, is the first of Jessie J's four top tens to appear and Bray will be happy to see it's the least popular, indeed it seemed to be the most disliked of her four top ten hits on Buzzjack, with opinion on her singing style in this song divided to say the least.

97. JESSIE J - DO IT LIKE A DUDE (-35 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 6
OCC PEAK: 2
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 2
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 13
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -6
RUN: [7-5-10-8-6-X-6]


At 97, another Jessie J song, just edging out WYA by having nineteen "4"s compared to WYA's one. This is my favourite Jessie J song, so it's a bit disappointing to see it so far down, but I can understand why other people wouldn't like it.

96. THE WANTED - GLAD YOU CAME (-33 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 6
OCC PEAK: 1
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 4
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 3
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -6
RUN: [7-6-8-4-7-7]


The Wanted's #1 lands next at 96, leaving "Lightning" to battle it out with "What Makes You Beautiful" as the top boy band single on the chart, not really deserving to be this low, though I was probably one of the voters giving it negative points as it took a while for it to grow on me, as have The Wanted. It's taken me a while to forgive Heart Vacancy.

95. SEAN KINGSTON - PARTY ALL NIGHT (SLEEP ALL DAY) (-32 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2
OCC PEAK: 9
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 0
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 6
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -16
RUN: [8-8]


Next up is a party track that was rescued from obscurity by "The Inbetweeners Movie", a nice albeit simple dance song about clubbing, fit the film's theme perfectly and despite the apparent appeal of Twilight, this song charted higher than either "It Will Rain" or "A Thousand Years".

94. T-PAIN FT. WIZ KHALIFA & LILY ALLEN -5 O'CLOCK (-31 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2
OCC PEAK: 6
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 3
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -16
RUN: [7-9]


Next is the T-Pain single "5 O'Clock" featuring the Lily Allen sample from "Who'd Have Known", this was once an iTunes #1, and seems to be the less successful iTunes #1 on the OCC chart for a long time.

93. VATO GONZALEZ FT. FOREIGN BEGGARS -BADMAN RIDDIM (JUMP) (-29 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 7
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 10
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 1
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 4
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -29
RUN: [10]


At 93# , it's a song that i've forgotten all about, and there's not much more info I can find online apart from the artists being Dutch and British.

92. TINCHY STRYDER & DAPPY - SPACESHIP (-28 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 5
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 10
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 0
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 4
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -28
RUN: [10]


Next is a duet with two of Buzzjack's favourites, Dappy & Tinchy Stryder. Considered a potential number one before release it instead stalled at #5, before freefalling out of the chart. Dappy has one more entry in the chart, his number one, but will it be one of the 57 songs to recieve a positive score?

Up next is the marmite singer Cher Lloyd with the first of her top ten hits, this being the least popular. Follow up fairs better on the chart. This song finishes higher than Spaceship as it received one "5" compared to Spaceship's none.

90. CALVIN HARRIS - FEEL SO CLOSE (-27 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 4

RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 4
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 9
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -7
RUN: [4-7-9-10]


Next is the first of Calvin Harris' three top tens, a year with one massive #1 and two #2 singles, although for some reason he's not regularly referred to in 'Sound Of 2011' discussions. FSC is his only song not to feature a big female name, and hence does least well on Buzzjack.

89. ALEX DAY - FOREVER YOURS (-25 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 4
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 1
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 0
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -25
RUN: [8]


Another of the contenders for Xmas #1 2011, Youtube sensation Alex Day didn't achieve the yultide crown, yet he manages to record one of the highest placing chart entries for an unsigned artist. FY also is the lowest song on the list not to recieve a "-5" most probably either going to the military wives or the italian christmas donkey.

88. ENRIQUE IGLESIAS FT. LUDACRIS & DJ FRANK E - TONIGHT (I'M F***IN' YOU) (-25 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2
OCC PEAK: 5
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 4
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 2
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -13
RUN: [5-8]


Next up Enrique gets another top ten hit from a suprisingly successful "Euphoria" era in the UK, Iglesias teams up with Ludacris and DJ Frank E to sing a little song about finding a pretty girl, and making it crystal clear that you're smashing that. It struck a chord with music goers, and had moderate success. TIFY finishes higher than FY as it recieved four "5"s compared to FY's one.

Another act who made a decent debut (with a little help from Olly Murs) last year, this is my least favourite of their three top ten hits from last year, so i'm glad it didn't do as well.

X Factor runner up Rebecca Ferguson is next with her debut single, a Macy Gray-esque promoting the virtues of LURVE. Rebecca's debut has already beaten Cher's (#91) and Matt Cardle's (#126), but she fails to beat the new boyband on the block meaning she has the second most popular debut from last year's X Factor alumni on Buzzjack's consensus. NRBL finishes higher than WIWAY as it recieved one "5" compared to WIWAY's none.

The middle of Guetta's five tracks to chart, this is my second favourite (after "Sweat) and indeed one of only two I like, not that i'd got to mad though, tis' a bit boring.

84. DEV & THE CATARACS - BASS DOWN LOW (-23 POINTS)

Never really liked this song and am pleased it hasn't done that well, though I suppose I will never really like anything by Dev as it all sounds similar and not particular good (IMHO) in the first place. BDL finishes higher than WY as it received two "5"s compared to WY's one.

83. DAVID GUETTA FT. FLO RIDA & NICKI MINAJ - WHERE DEM GIRLS AT (-23 POINTS)

AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE: -8
RUN: [6-9-8]


This would be one of my contenders for worst song of the year, literally generic to the extreme, there has to be a point where Guetta comes to the conclusion that writing similar songs about hot women in clubs (WTGA, Who's That Chick, Little Bad Girl, Sexy Bitch) is getting a little old and songs where he branches away from this (When Love Takes Over, Gettin' Over You, Love Is Gone, Titanium) are his career highlights. Anywhoo there's one more appearance left from both Guetta & Minaj, but none for Flo :(. WTGA finishes higher than BDL as it recieved four "4"s compared to BDL's none.
