RELEASED: 2000

PEAK POSITION: 2

 

I had to get this one didn't I? Some of you young kids may like this song. This is just NOSTALGIA talking. It's drivel. Move along now.

 

the big issue with this countdown is how single sales died in the mid 00's and as a result we are going to see a lot of songs from the last 4 or so years dominating.

 

I like 'Earthquake' but there is no way it is a bigger hit than James Blunt's 'Your Beautiful' which was no1 for weeks and massive all over the world.

 

I agree. I don't think Earthquake is even bigger than Airplanes and Fireflies tbh...

 

I'm particularly annoyed, since 2002-2007 were my favourite years!!

My dad has just told me that he and his friends always sung Who Let the Dogs Out whenever a munter went into the pub! :lol:

"Who Let The Dogs Out" :lol:

 

This had a weird chart run as well, any ideas why it went from 14-2?

13-14-{2}-4-2-3-3-4-6-6-5-5-5-7-18-23-30-40-45-46-55-59-68 (23 weeks)

 

 

I believe Radio 1 started playing it and it shot up to 2.

Has Toca's Miracle been omitted yet again?

Who Let the Dogs out always brings a smile to my face. :lol:

 

Bad Boys is very average imo. Imagine how much it would've sold if she released All Night Long instead at that time!!

My dad has just told me that he and his friends always sung Who Let the Dogs Out whenever a munter went into the pub! :lol:

 

Victoria Beckham once allegedly sang it at Jordan at Old Trafford, back at the height of the trashy WAG-wars.

Crazy Frog has sold about 550,000 I think.

 

Oh standards are to high for Britney :lol:

OMG, talk about a song you never hear anymore!!

 

This was massive in late 2009, everyone was singing it and now it's just been completely forgotten :( Alexandra has done some great songs over the years but they just don't seem to last!

Baha Men were the highest non-#1 (using that term in the literal sense on this occasion) in the 2009 list right? But there's at least three more of those to come in this one - Eminem, Maroon 5, Snow Patrol, any others? Two of those three are even worse than Baha Men (although I actually quite like WLTDO? for the nostalgia :kink:)

RELEASED: 2009

PEAK POSITION: 1

 

I rather like this despite Flo Rida, Alexandra if you can read this, MORE OF THIS PLEASE.

 

 

I believe Radio 1 started playing it and it shot up to 2.

Yes and it was on TOTP as well :angry:

I'll Host 3-4 if you want Gezza!

That's taken I have slot 5-6 left?

Haha it's weird that they're playing the soundtrack of the video, so Scott Mills has to audio-describe what's going on...

75. YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL- James Blunt

78. MAD WORLD- Michael Andrews Ft Gary Jules

79. EMPIRE STATE OF MIND PART II- Alicia Keys

 

Delighted my lunch skipped these three.

 

Loving Scott Mills' interpretation of the videos. :lol:

Haven't had Bad Boys FOREVER, but it sounds surprisingly fresh considering it was average at the time.

OMG, talk about a song you never hear anymore!!

 

This was massive in late 2009, everyone was singing it and now it's just been completely forgotten :( Alexandra has done some great songs over the years but they just don't seem to last!

 

I still hear it on Heart FM sometimes. I hear it more than Fight For This Love these days.

 

Does Scott Mills not like Alexandra Burke? :lol:

This really should be "Climax" here. Or at least "Yeah!".

Have I missed Take That - Rule the World, La Roux - In for the Kill, Kings of Leon - Use Somebody?

To quote Thom (CHCMedia), this sounds great in a club. :lol:
