Surprised at Royals being that high :o Glad though. Yay for Wrecking Ball too, still as stunning as in first listen!
Two fab songs there, glad they're both top 10! Kinda expected Burn to be lower as it's not her best received track on here. Imagine if ACH got #1 :o

 

 

ACH is her best song, and had it got to no.1, well, anything could have happened with the votin!

WAKE ME UP IS INCREDIBLE YOU STUPID PEOPLE

 

 

Incredibly average. :lol:

I think it's very clear that Get Lucky will be number 1, althought I find very boring now it's been milked to the core.

'I Love It' still to come? :D (I had a skim read through so can't be certain)

 

'Animals' should have been higher! Oh, and I Could Be The One >>>> Wake Me Up (though I do like 'Wake Me Up')

Three of the biggest hits of 2013 starting with the fastest selling single, "Wake Me Up". Featuring uncredited vocals from Aloe Blacc, Swede Avicii had a huge Worldwide hit on his hands which became overplayed very quickly (maybe why it attracts a fair share of hate along with all the love it gets). "La La La" is our first entry in the top 5, with vocals from the latest 'Sound Of...' winner, Sam Smith. The video is ICONIC and I still love the song (tad hypocritical given how airplay killed Wake Me Up for me :kink:), it's a catchy tune without being too in-your-face, quite the opposite of Katy Perry's fantastic comeback single "Roar". Everyone probably expected this to be top 3 but nope. We're left with a top three of JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, ICONA POP & DAFT PUNK.

 

Top 3 revealed in a single post soon enough...

Well, my two least favourites of the top 6 out first but "Roar" deserved top 3. Hope "I Love It" doesn't win, it's decent enough but not a patch on the other two.
'Roar' going out pretty much confirms Icona Pop have won :( Daft Punk COULD still do it but I doubt it.

Ugh I Love It got boring after a few weeks. x_x

 

ROAR should have won.

I Love It is overrated (great, but overrated), but not even half as much as Get Lucky. Definitely my least favourite song of the year, let alone out of just #1s!

great top 3 <3 Get Lucky ftw though please (not sure it will though)

 

and La La La :wub: so glad that became huge

There we have it! The huge summer smash "I Love It" from Swedish duo Icona Pop wasn't even close to the all-male top two (first time we've had one of them). Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" stormed the charts when released back in April and is better than our previous winner (Somebody That I Used To Know) but is still extremely overrated (in my opinion of course). Justin Timberlake is our runner-up with easily his biggest hit of the era, "Mirrors", which became a multi-week #1 last March. It didn't get as much major love but it doesn't seem to divide opinion quite as much.

 

Thanks to everyone who has been reading and who voted. Sorry the results got stretched out over a week as that wasn't the original intention. :P

Icona Pop in 3rd place :o I got tired of the track pretty quickly in the end.

 

Great #1 track though

 

Thanks Jack for hosting the annual thread

Great top two, would have preferred "Mirrors" to win but both are great and "Get Lucky" will be more remembered as the sound of 2013.
Get Lucky is so overrated, it's unreal
Well that's a great top 3, aside from the worst song of the year winning.
