70. TINCHY STRYDER FT. PIXIE LOTT - BRIGHT LIGHTS (-4 POINTS)

Bringing to an end the short run of songs I like, is this at number #70. I song which I couldn't remember and having relistened to it today can see why, it's instantly forgettable with no substance.

69. NAUGHTY BOY FT. EMELI SANDÉ - WONDER (-3 POINTS)

Appropriately, Naughty Boy is at #69 in this countdown, this is the lowest ranked song in the list NOT to have recieved a "-5" meaning nobody who voted truly hated it. I quite like it in fact and prefer it to "Beneath Your Beautiful" which finishes much higher up.

At #68, Plan B's sole T10 this year, and as with Ed Sheeran I don't dislike Plan B, but I don't exactly get the hype either. This is one of my least favourite from him. IM finishes higher than Wonder as it received three "+5"s compared to Wonder's two.

At #67, The lowest for Nicki Minaj's three entries and the second lowest of Guetta's four. Despite being eligible for four weeks the song is the only song this year have not recieved any "+5"s or any "-5"s, and stayed remarkable consistent maintaining the #5 spot for four weeks. I quite like the song, but it only comes to life for me on a night out.

The highest song by a boyband on this list is won by The Wanted which means no boyband single managed positive points for a second year on the trot, although this did come close. I thought the song was a nice change of pace for The Wanted. IFY finished higher than TMO as it recieved one "+5" compared to TMO's none.

We're coming to an end of the songs which received negative points with a quintet of songs getting -1. John Legend prior to 2012 had never had a top ten hit before, then came The Voice where two contestants performed the song in the blind audition phase, the song then rocketed to the top of iTunes managing a top 4 placing, eclipsing its original #27 peak from 2005. I do really like the song and Legend so I am glad it finally got the placing it deserved.

Usually X Factor females would have fared better than this on Buzzjack, I don't particularly rate this song, but I thought that Buzzjack would have ate it up, but apparently not. YBMJ finished higher than OP as it received seven "+4"s compared to OP's two.

Pixie's highest entry on this year's list at #63, just a few places lower than her highest on last year's (What Do You Take Me For? At #59). I forgot how this song went before today, but I do recognise it from listening to it, seemed OK to me, nowhere near as catchy as some of her early songs though. I do know that it has it's fans on Buzzjack. KTS finishes higher than YBMJ as it received one "+5" compared to YBMJ's none.

Another 2011 left over, this one managing a further three weeks in 2012. The placing however is down on last years (14th in 2011). As I said at the time and it still holds true. I don't get this song and don't understand its success, but that's just me. Earthquake finishes higher than KTS as it received three "+4"s compared to KTS' none.

At #61, Jessie J's Domino is the highest placed song with a negative score on the countdown, meaning the top 60 all received positive points, slightly better than the 57 of last year. The song by itself was not special but a tolerable pop hit, which would have done much better on this list WITHOUT it's Top 10 longevity meaning people get bored of it. Domino finishes higher than Earthquake as it received four "+5"s compared to Earthquake's one.

Kicking off the positive scoring songs is what I feel a return to form for The Saturdays, myself personally not liking a single since "Higher", this is a pleasant easy-to-listen-to dance song.

Another 2011 leftover and one of my favourite songs on the list, I think it's as catchy as hell and glad it managed positive points again. It came 21st in 2011. DTME (MT) finishes higher than LH as it received three "+3"s compared to LH's one.

The first of two for Olly Murs on this countdown which I'm all for as he's one of my favourite contemporary artists delivering consistently good songs, this being one of them, finishing next to Lloyd on two consecutive years, this year he managed to better him (in 2011 it finished 22nd to Lloyd's 21st). DWMT finishes higher than DTME (MT) as it received three "+5"s compared to DTME (MT)'s two.

Despite obviously being one of the strongest vocalists of the 2011 X Factor, Misha B seemingly lacked the "likeability factor" and finished fourth to Little Mix, Marcus Collins & Amelia Lily. Little Mix are still to come, but Misha has finished higher than both Collins & Lily on this rundown. I do like the song as well, a nice little pop song.

2012 has been one of my favourite years for dance music as a fairweather fan of the genre. This has included singles by both Calvin and Example, this collaboration being one of them. Calvin has three more entries to come, Example has none failing to emulate his T10 placing last year (Change The Way You Kissed Me finishes 9th). WBCB finishes higher than DYTOM as it recieved six "+5"s compared to DYTOM's four.

Conor Maynard's most popular song on the song and the only one to get positive points is his collaboration with Ne-Yo, in which he showed he could a club song like the best of them. I do like the song, but "Can't Say No" is still my favourite from Maynard.

Alexandra Burke manages not to embarrass herself with a respectable 54th placing for "Elephant", not managing to beat Leona's sole placing of the year, the song is a simple dance number, not amazing but passable.

Swedish House Mafia's first of two entries this week, a great dance track and the collaboration with Knife Party works well. SHM have another hit left, how well will "Don't You Worry Child" fare?

Just missing out on the top 50 is another return to form, in this case Leona Lewis'. My favourite single from her in an age. She's yet to have a Reshuffle #1 since it's inception in mid-2009.
