OK, I've made a few comments about the bias towards pop divas on Buzzjack, but I can't deny the facts: These are the records that have done best in my charts over the last 12 or 13 years. Considering how old I am I think they fit in on buzzjack quite nicely...

From your list:

 

These songs were # 1 in my charts:

- Gwen Stefani - Cool

- Dido - White Flag

- Lady Gaga - Alejandro

- Sophie Ellis Bextor - Murder On The Dancefloor

- Britney Spears - Toxic

- Girls Aloud - Call The Shots

- Lady Gaga - Poker Face

 

My all-time # 2 song Sinead Quinn - "I Can't Break Down" (10 weeks # 1 in my personal charts, only Anmary broke her record in 2012)

was only second in UK singles chart behind Tatu with ""All The Things She Said"

 

"Inner Smile" is my favourite song from your top 10, but it's not so wonderful in compare with "Summer Son", "When We Are Together" and "In Our Lifetime"

 

I don't like most modern songs from Madonna and Kylie, but a huge fan of their early songs.

 

In summary: not bad list, if don't count some dance songs, which I dislike very much.

Thanks Alex, I dont remember that Sinead song must look it up (my memory is going, it got to no. 5 in my charts!). Those earlier Texas songs all feature highly in my Top 100 of the 90's:) Madonna I liked from her first single (Holiday) and Kylie's first Top 10 was I Should Be So Lucky, but didnt really win me over fully till Better The Devil You Know:)

 

Now I need to refresh my memory with that Sinead song...

Now I need to refresh my memory with that Sinead song...

Her second single "What You Need Is.." spent 7 weeks on the top in my chart, but after flop for her album "Ready To Run" third single "Safe Hands" / "Don't Give It Up Girl" was canceled and now she is forgotten.
