Posted August 10, 201212 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. Group 7 Results Winning Group 7 is Gotye with recent chart hit STIUTK. It is still in the top 40 today. Gnarls Barkley and ATB finish the top 3 with their only chart toppers* and Madonna, Sugababes and Blondie have more songs going into the final. Recent chart topper fun. and charity single Band Aid join Liberty X and Christina Aguleria in the semi finals. Chris Brown loses with TUTM getting 3 votes of -02. *Cee Lo did have a #1 outside of GB 1. +306 Gotye feat.
