85. TAYLOR SWIFT FT. ED SHEERAN - EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED (-31 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2
OCC PEAK: 7 (1wk)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 4
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 3
POSITIVE VOTES: 21
NEGATIVE VOTES: 32
RUN: 7-7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -15.5


The first of Taylor Swift's three 2013 T10 hits, to appear is the one I heard the least of. On hearing it today, it's okay. More country than most of the 'Red' singles. I would have preferred her duet with Gary Lightbody to have had the success of this.

84. PSY - GANGNAM STYLE (-29 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2 (in 2013)
OCC PEAK: 3 (1wk)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 2
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 1
POSITIVE VOTES: 12
NEGATIVE VOTES: 26
RUN: 9-7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -14.5


Another 2012 leftover, with PSY's mega-hit Gangnam Style, the first k-pop #1, finishing off its massive 17 week run. The song started to lose its appeal to Reshuffle voters towards the end of its run, but it was actually Reshuffle #1 for two weeks of its run.

83. BREACH FT. ANDREYA TRIANA - EVERYTHING YOU NEVER HAD (-29 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 9 (1wk)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 8
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 3
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 7
POSITIVE VOTES: 11
NEGATIVE VOTES: 18
RUN: 8
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -29


Breach are another act with two T10s from 2013, both making the top ten, their apparently more serious effort being this collaboration with the difficult-to-remember-to-spell Andreya Triana, the record like many this year have been reminiscent of 90s dance, this one being ok, but a bit forgettable and not the best effort of the year. EYNH finishes higher than GS as it recieved three "+5s" compared to PSY's two.

82. DEVLIN FT. DIANE BIRCH - REWIND (-28 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 10 (1wk)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 9
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 0

Another one I had completely forgotten until its re-listen just now, can see why - completely dull.

81. AVICII - YOU MAKE ME (-24 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 3
OCC PEAK: 5 (2wks)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 7
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 1
POSITIVE VOTES: 29
NEGATIVE VOTES: 46
RUN: 8-8-6
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -8


Avicii just misses out on having his four hits in the top 80 of the countdown, although I would say this is my least favourite of the four, that being said I can see its appeal and it sounds great in a club.

80. CALVIN HARRIS FT. TINIE TEMPAH - DRINKING FROM THE BOTTLE (-21 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 6
OCC PEAK: 5 (2wks)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 6
AMOUNT OF 5's RECIEVED: 3
AMOUNT OF -5's RECIEVED: 7
POSITIVE VOTES: 62
NEGATIVE VOTES: 69
RUN: 5-6-4-6-9-7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -3.5


While Avicii missed, Calvin scores as all his four top 10s are in the top 80, and Tinie has one more to come. This song again is brilliant for a club, but not something I would have on my iPod.

79. SHOWTEK FT. WE ARE LOUD! & SONNY WILSON - BOOYAH (-19 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 1
OCC PEAK: 5 (1wk)
RESHUFFLE AVERAGE POSITION: 7

I really like the opening to this song, it's a shame about the rest, it just gets repetetive and messy for me, again (seems to be a recurring theme) I would strictly enjoy this on a night out only, but the best dance songs always make their way onto my iPod.

The Arctic Monkeys made a big comeback this year with album AM, this being the highest charting though I would guess that "Do I Wanna Know?" would have sold more. I like this song and album and so far it has been my favourite era from Arctic Monkeys.

77. DEMI LOVATO - HEART ATTACK (-18 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2

POSITIVE VOTES: 22

RUN: 8-X-7
AVERAGE WEEKLY SCORE -9


Demi Lovato's first of two singles to appear is the first in the countdown to have more "+5"s than "-5s", but overall it had more negative votes than positive, giving it a minus score. Even though I didn't rate it particularly, I thought it may have done better on this chart, knowing Buzzjack, but sometimes they can surprise you. HA finishes higher than WYOCMWYH as it recieved eleven "+5s" compared to Arctic Monkeys' three.

Leaving "Berzerk" to represent him Eminem, "Rap God" just stopped short in being in the top half of the results. I think the quality of rapping's extremely good, but I can't like a song with so many homophobic slurs in it, and I don't care what weak excuses Eminem gives, he's still perpetuating the problem.

Leading us into the most popular half of the year is X Factor judge and former Pussycat Doll, Nicole Scherzinger. Scherzinger looked to be getting a second official #1 according to the official midweek charts, however all she could managed was a mere #6 in the end. Probably for the best, it hardly would be regarded as one of the year's better #1s would it?

74. SELENA GOMEZ - COME & GET IT (-16 POINTS)

Another Disney star next as Selena Gomez drops the Scene to get another T10 hit. I've heard better from her, especially the fabuous "Love You Like A Song" which unfortunately missed T40, let alone T10. CAGI finished higher than Boomerang as it recieved six "+5"s compared to Nicole's none.

73. EMINEM - BERZERK (-15 POINTS)

Eminem's highest track on the countdown, the first single to be released from The Marshall Mathers LP 2. I'm somewhat surprised this is the highest as I seem to remember it recieving the most hate upon release, although this is my preferred release from the album.

I wish Come & Get It was higher! :(

72. TAYLOR SWIFT - 22 (-14 POINTS)

Only "I Knew You Were Trouble." left now for Taylor Swift to come, this song has a more positive look on this particular age than Lily Allen's song of the same name did. The song is a bit nothing-y, but nothing spectacularly bad.

71. TINIE TEMPAH FT. 2 CHAINZ - TRAMPOLINE (-14 POINTS)

WEEKS IN TOP TEN: 2

Tinie & 2 Chainz highest track to appear, and the first on the countdown to have an equal number of positive voters and negative voters, meaning this song split opinion more than most, personally I'm not that fond of the song. Trampoline finishes higher than 22 as it recieved six "+5"s compared to Swift's one.

Tinie :wub:

70. BEN HOWARD - ONLY LOVE (-12 POINTS)

This song remains Ben Howard's only top ten single to date and peaked after exposure at the Brits, personally I find this song dull and the repetition of "only love" in the chorus grates on me.
