Posted June 20, 201213 yr As many of you already know, we are coming close to the twelve hundredth number one single in the UK as well as the UK chart celebrating 60 years. So what better way to celebrate than to find out Buzzjack's favourite number ones of all time? But this Ultimate rate comes with a twist. Unlike previous ultimate rates the voting will not be done by year, as this will take forever Instead there will be 12 groups of 100 songs chosen at random by random.org of which the top 16 will go through to the next round (making 192 songs) and the rest of the top 20 will enter the semi-finals in which the top 8 will go through. This way we have a final 200. I will open one group at a time and voting will be the same as last time. Then once we get to the top 200 we will cut it down to 100 or 50 if need be, before the grand final. Now before you tell me that the 1199th and 1200th number ones haven't been announced yet, this doesn't matter as these 'unknown songs' are appearing in the middle or later groups, hopefully those number ones would've been announced by then as nothing looks like spending more than 2 weeks at the top at the moment.

June 21, 201213 yr I know we've had a hell of alot of bad No.1's over the years, this list seems to be heavily weighted in bad ones. Hoping that other lists are not heavily weighted in great No.1's (only my top 2 I would class as great) as despite this horrific list it was still blooming difficult to choose the 20. The artists with multiple No.1's seem to have the worst ones in this list (Madonna, Elvis, Oasis, Spice Girls....). Disappointed but not surprised to see 'Wannabe' scoring well, ghastly song IMO, but still far from being the worst in this 100. +30 The Beatles "Yellow Submarine/Eleanor Rigby" - Just for the sublime "Eleanor Rigby" +25 Eminem feat.
