09. Sabrina Carpenter- On Purpose | Ramrynia

(SEPT) // Personal Chart Peak: 07

And into 9th we have the first of two Ramrynia entries, and the first of two Ramrynia entries that I knew before Ryan sent them and had both as potentials! Sabrina was my 2nd potential behind Liv Dawson for what was her best single at the time (Thumbs slays everything now) in the form of On Purpose. The song had peaked at #7 on my chart before being sent here and is a pop anthem and I'm glad it did pretty well in the competition *.*

08. NEIKED ft. Dyo- Sexual | Ramrynia

(AUG) // Personal Chart Peak: 04

And into 8th we have the second of two Ramrynia entries, and I also had this one as a potential, though wasn't considering sending it that much! Sexual remains an utterly fabulous tune which has been great to see become a big chart hit over the last month or so. I really liked this at the time of the competition but have come to properly utterly adore it over the last month or so <3

yes sasha! :cheer: i knew you would love that one :kink:

Some fab picks Sammy!

I remember almost screaming when I saw Sabrina on the confirmation list! Such a good pick.

 

(Also found "Sexual" in the same forum I found "Higher" but didn't really consider it :P)

07. WILLA- Hey | Altyr Muunilinst

(JUL) // Personal Chart Peak: N/A

And into 7th we have the absolute anthem 'Hey' by WILLA which was sent by Altyr Muunilinst (this time spelt right!) and is the first of two entries from July's top 3 to appear in my EOY top 10! This has completely stayed in my head since it has been sent to BJSC and I still listen to it regularly, really glad this went top 3 in BJSC and definitely up there with my fave entries of all time sent to the contest<3

06. TP4Y- Blush | Yehesi

(JUL) // Personal Chart Peak: N/A

And into 6th we have the song which either just beat or just finished behind Hey in BJSC in July (I don't remember if it came 2nd or 3rd!) in the form of Yehesi's highest entry this year in their best year so far, the girlband anthem 'Blush' by TP4Y. While the song is definitely more known now for all the controversy surrounding the track in BJSC due to their fanbase in the likes of American Samoa etc and saw Blush vetoe'd before being reinstated. Anyhoo onto the actual song, it is such an amazing pop girlgroup track and is so lush and I was so glad when Tim finally sent this! <3

This was also top 5 till a couple of days ago but another entry has overtaken it at the last second!

05. Emji- Lost | Hushkanukia

(SEPT) // Personal Chart Peak: 09

And into 5th, and vaulting from 8th where it was when I started this countdown, is the first of the Pupok(x3)/Hushkanukia(x2) top 5 and the only entry in my top 5 from the second half of 2016 in the form of the absolutely stunning ballad Lost! There was something so magical about this the first time I heard it, Emji's vocals are fabulous and especially the last minute of the song is absolutely epic and completely makes the track! I've always loved it but over the last week I've been playing it so much and have completely re-fallen in love with it and this saw it debut at #9 in my personal chart this week! Tbh if this countdown was done a couple of weeks later, it could have continue to sneak up my EOY list! Absolutely stunning and a Hushkanukian jem <3

04. Rich White Ladies- Wimbledon | Pupok

(MAY) // Personal Chart Peak: NA

And into 4th we have the first of three Pupok entries in the top 5 from their golden run from April- June, the first one popping up is #TennisAnthem Wimbledon which comes in the middle of that spell! Another song I immediately fell in love with, this received a +15 from us in the semi (Taahino's +18 ranks 20th here!), making it one of four songs to receive a +15 score from us (This and Sexual which have overtaken my +18's and Hey and On Purpose which despite coming top 10, the +18's in those months came higher!). This is still a gigantic anthem and I've come back to it so many times throughout the year and is definitely a highlight of Pupok's amazing year <3

03. Haschak Sisters- Daddy Says No | Pupok

(JUN) // Personal Chart Peak: NA

DADDY *.* And kicking off the top 3 is everyone's favourite sisters with the 2nd biggest anthem of 2016, the highly quotable 'Daddy Says No' which has everything from incredible live performances to Thomas The Tank Engine remixes and this is the ultimate guilty pleasure *.* Still listen to this all the time and it remains the absolutely high amount of fun it has always been. I was so happy when this went top 10 as it really deserved to smash everything else and is just a load of fun for 3 and a bit minutes! <3

Hushkanukia v Pupok! Who's won?

02. Girli- So You Think You Can f*** With Me Do Ya | Pupok

(APR) // Personal Chart Peak: 05

And my 2016 winner is Hushkanukia so at number #2 we see the last of three Pupok entries in a row, my 2nd place belonging to the absolutely crazily anthemic great 'So You Think You Can f*** With Me Do Ya' by Girli! I still go back to this absolutely all the time and has definitely become one of my faves of 2016 and is always an anthem whenever I listen to it! Still my favourite Girli track and the only song to go top 5 (bar my entries!) in my personal chart based off just BJSC as Girli smashed straight into #5 with this utter gem of a track *.* <3

01. Jillea- Shattered | Hushkanukia

(JAN) // Personal Chart Peak: 10

And my 2016 winner is Hushkanukia as we travel back to start of the year in January to find the song which has still managed to hold every single song from the months to follow to get my EOY BJSC #1, Jillea's utterly beautiful power ballad Shattered which still slays me so much to this day. It was instant love since I first heard this and I would still check out the track regularly but only on YouTube due to no UK release, but a couple of months ago it was finally uploaded to Spotify and that gave it a 2nd burst of massive love from me and sneaking a personal chart top 10! Shattered is such a beautiful track and is exactly the type of power-ballad I adore, I'm still so happy this came top 20 in the main contest, even if it should've come higher, and this is so deserving of my #01 <3

Ranking My Top 10 Of The Year!!

01. Lauren Aquilina- How Would You Like It Contender for my fave of the entire year

02. Lucy Hale- Lie A Little Better Still incredible <3 #UpWithCountry

03. Ana Mena- No Soy Como Tu Crees Spanish always slays, especially when its as good as this *.*

04. Nimmo- Dilute This Still utterly slays me

05. Paulina Rubio ft. Morat- Mi Nuevo Vicio Still gutted this DNQ'ed, pop anthem *.* Paulina/ARIA/SKIES/Casi are literally all joint 5th tbh!

06. ARIA- Maze Adore this so much also!

07. SKIES- Drone Really love this and how different this was for us!

08. Casi- Lion Absolutely stunning but prefer the others!

09. Liv Dawson- Still Really like this but haven't been back to it much at all since that contest

10. Fletcher- Over My Head 8/10 but definitely my least favourite
