It doesn't go anywhere for me, it feels like it finishes a minute earlier than it should too!

That's a REALLY strong top 16! Shame that Damn is so low though.

I will reveal more tomorrow, been at work all day today! I don't start till 4 tomorrow so time to fit a few in ;)

Up next, we have a 3-way tie!

 

14. Turn To Stone - 157 points (Average: 8.15)

 

 

Up first of the 3-way tie is Turn to Stone, coming 5th from the OOC era. I've got to say this isn't my favourite from this album or of theirs so I'm quite surprised it got this high, especially as they've never performed it live anywhere, it is actually the last song in the countdown to not be performed Live. "You're moving in circles, looking for the love that I thought we made, while I stand alone.."

 

14. Revolution In The Head - 157 points (Average: 8.15)

 

 

Next of the 3-way is Revolution In The Head, another from OOC, leaving just 3 left. Glad this song did well, I love the intro in the above version of the song, very quirky and fun and just makes you wanna dance! "A navigator, Oh won't you tell me which way to go, I can't shake off the feeling, I got to hold tight.."

 

14. Fling - 157 points (Average: 8.2)

 

 

Up next of the 3-way tie is the song coming in 5th place from the Tangled Up era. Personally I LOVE this song, The Live version (above) is so fantastic, they really perform the hell out of it, the struts when they walk in :wub: "Whose that hottie in the dark? Body like a work of art, Feel your eyes undressing me, Strip me of my modesty.."

13. Miss You Bow Wow - 158.5 points (Average: 8.37)

 

 

Up at #13 is another from the OOC era, ranking 3rd from said album, Miss You Bow Wow. I could have imagined this song being a single so I'm not surprised its did so well. Very energetic and another song that makes you want to get up and dance! "At night, when my demons hit, I dial 9-9-9 say I need a doctor, So damn tired of your shadow making my heart and soul go crazy.."

12. Love Is The Key - 160 points (Average: 8.3)

 

 

At #12 is 'Love Is The Key' ranking 2nd from 'Out Of Control', Another song I could have imagined being a single, Typical fun, quirky, energetic and danceable Girls Aloud material, I also love the Thiller Jill remix of this song! "A mocha-choco-late, You're more an Espresso shot, Life and soul of the party, It's safe to say you're not.."

Very surprised Miss You Bow Wow isn't Top 5 and even more surprised that Love Is The Key is higher than it! I was expecting the Out Of Control battle to be purely (and rightfully) between Bow Wow and Love Is Pain. :o

11.Some Kind Of Miracle - 160.5 points (Average: 8.44)

 

 

Just missing out on the Top 10 is the final and highest rated track from their first album SOTU, Some Kind of Miracle, the song that according to The Singles Boxset was due to be released as the 4th single before Jump came along. Personally I think this would have been a fantastic 4th single, although I think Jump gained them some new fans. Very surprised to see that this song hasn't been performed Live before, I thought it had. Brilliant song, and well deserving of its position!

 

"Well honey, honey, better things I could do, Than hang around with all your slacker friends pretending that I'm cool.."

Down to the Top 10 -

 

Graffiti My Soul (What Will The Neighbours Say)

Models (Chemistry)

Wild Horses (Chemistry)

Watch Me Go (Chemistry)

Waiting (Chemistry)

Close To Love (Tangled Up)

Girl Overboad (Tangled Up)

Black Jacks (Tangled Up)

Control Of The Knife (Tangled Up)

Love Is Pain (Out Of Control)

 

1 song from What Will The Neighbours Say, 4 from Chemistry, 4 from Tangled Up and 1 from Out Of Control, what will be victorious?

Black Jacks or Watch Me Go, please!

I fail to see how this will be anything other than a Girl Overboard win now. Black Jacks may run it close though!

Disappointed Revolution In The Head didn't make the top 10.

'Miss You Bow Wow' and 'Love Is The Key' are both big highlights from Out Of Control for me. :wub:

10. Waiting - 162.5 points (Average: 8.55)

 

 

So the first song of the Top 10 is from Chemistry, Waiting is probably the most performed album track ever right? Chemistry and Out Of Control tours, they must really like it.. And so do you. I really like this song, but I don't know if it is quite Top 10 worthy imo, still it is incredibly catchy!

 

"The stuff I'm sellin' it's hot hot hot, Mr magic is not so toy, He's gonna seperate the men from the boys, If every guy's a dog then baby throw me to the wolves, I'll never get to heaven with my glass half full.."

9. Models - 164.5 points (Average: 8.65)

 

 

Another from Chemistry in 9th place is Models, this song always reminds me of Girls Aloud Off The Record, catchy and fun song, glad it did so well. Really could have imagined this being a single!

 

"Credit cards and lobster and crystal in rounds (first class) Back doors and bouncers only A list allowed (smart bars) All those faces in the places to be seen, Darling we're in fashion, don't you know?.."

I really wanted 'Models' to be the single over 'Whole Lotta History', 'Waiting' is good fun I suppose but nothing to write home about.

'Rolling Back the Rivers In Time' is so, so dull! I don't get why it's so loved! In fact 'Love Is Pain', 'Turn to Stone' and to a lesser extent 'Love Is the Key' are all overrated! :( 'Revolution In the Head' I always thought wasn't liked so much on here! So it's placing is much higher than I thought it would be (deservedly so too :wub:), 'Miss You Bow Wow' is my favourite GA album track I've heard. Such a flawless pop song! :wub:

 

'Graffiti My Soul' is another very, very overrated track! Some seriously good tracks left from 'Tangled Up' though! At least Buzzjack got one album correct, in terms of album tracks. 'Girl Overboard' and (in particular) 'Black Jacks' are up their with their very best! I'd probably rank them both inside my top 10 GA tracks, ever (along with MYBW obviously :P).

8.Wild Horses - 165.5 (Average: 8.71)

 

 

Up at #8 is another Chemistry track, leaving only one more from that album (Watch Me Go) in the running, Wild Horses again is another of GA's very catchy and quirky songs, obviously a lot of people like it as it comes in 8th and gets an average of 8.7, this is also one of the 5 album tracks to feature on disc 2 of 'Ten' personally I think its a tad overrated, but its still great.

 

"I was trying to sedate him, trying not to blow, Trying not to hate him but time was as blatant as gold, Wouldn't you know?.."

7.Love Is Pain - 171.5 points (Average: 8.82)

 

 

At 7 is the highest rated track from the Out of Control era 'Love is Pain' I'm very glad this won out of the OOC tracks, personally its one of my all time favourite Girls Aloud song, I would have loved to see this released over TLK, I think Nicola and Kimberley shine in this song, and I loved it on tour.

 

"What you are, What you see, It don't matter to me, It don't matter to me, What you know, What you need, It don't matter to me, Just be faithful to me.."

Glad Black Jacks is still to come, flawless song :wub: Disappointed that Miss You Bow Wow didn't make the top ten though, easily my third favourite song on Out Of Control after the first two singles.
