11 Amy MacDonald - This Is The Life (7.19)

 

 

Where did this chart?

 

EDIT: Just checked, #28. Wow!

 

Odd to hear that only charted at #28 in the UK!! It was a massive hit in the Netherlands spending 18 weeks in the top10 of the Dutch top40. It was also the best selling song of 2008 here.

10 Timbaland & OneRepublic - Apologize (7.23)

 

 

This is probably the most remembered song off that album right? Shame it wasn't The Way I Are *.*

I despise this, it was overplayed so badly :(

Re Amy.... It's far more popular than it's chart run suggests, it's one of those songs you get every now and again that convinced people to buy the album instead of the single.

09 Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music (7.54)

 

 

Good god this is BLAND

I would have thought that. I was wondering how it was so low here.

Surprised to see Duffy scrape the top 20 despite being quite hated. I honestly see no better song on this album though.

08 Alicia Keys - No One (7.66)

 

 

I have never got on with this particularly well. In fact I find Alicia Keys overrated in general.

07 Britney Spears - Piece Of Me (7.69)

 

 

This isn't that bad actually, but #7?! Come on.

 

several songs WAYYYY too low; David Jordan, Hoosiers, Samim, and ESPECIALLY Hot Chip are just some of them

 

glad that 'Piece of Me' garbage missed the top 5 tho

 

06 Kylie Minogue - Wow (7.74)

 

 

This song was one of the songs I had to answer questions on for one of my Music Tech past papers. What kind of filtration is used in the opening verse - no thank you.

05 Alphabeat - Fascination (7.81)

 

 

My god this is INCREDIBLE

 

The words on your lips

SAY THE WORD *.*

It was very big in the UK too, well at least it felt like it. Further research suggests that it spent 8 weeks top 40 despite the low peak, and 21 weeks top 75, so it's not as if it flopped.

04 Adele - Chasing Pavements (7.84)

 

 

Where it all began, of course.

03 Girls Aloud - Call The Shots (7.84)

 

 

Same average as Chasing Pavements, but more 10s and 11s. BORING.

 

So the final two are between BE MINE! and WORK.

I like to top 2 but besides Alicia, the rest of that top 10 is actually pretty horrific.

Shocked to see Work this here, love both songs but none of them seem like a great winner. I expect Robyn to win this thiugh

02 Kelly Rowland - Work (Freemasons Radio Edit) (7.91)

 

 

The Freemasons really were on a roll at this point weren't they?

 

 

01 Robyn - Be Mine! (8.51)

 

 

Robyn is probably one of my favourite artists here in general, so well done for winning, but this isn't up there as her best for me. Dancing On My Own however *.*

Yeah, Be Mine! is pretty damn good I suppose.

 

Do you have a full winners list Griff? :)
