On week ending 12/07/2014, audio streaming from Spotify, Deezer, Napster and some other streaming services I can't remember was added to the chart. Since then, it has made its presence known in the chart, holding up many long-runners (in particular Waves, which gained 8 weeks in the top 40 in 2014 due to streaming, a ninth this year, and might score a tenth this week). However, those long-runners being pushed back in the top 40 meant that 31 songs lost out on a top 40 hit status. And while in the case of some , it was a very good thing, for others it was a total injustice. So I thought I'd do a rank (because we all love ranks) of the 31 2014 top 40 streaming casualties.

 

Here are the 31 songs, copied from ibré!'s Changes in the top 40 due to streaming (2014) thread:

  • The 1975 - Medicine (08/11)
  • Alex Clare - War Rages On (01/11)
  • Andy C and Fiora - Heartbeat Loud (29/11)
  • Cher Lloyd - Sirens (02/08)
  • Chris Malinchak feat. Mikky Ekko - Stranger (30/08)
  • CHVRCHES - Get Away (20/12)
  • Clean Bandit feat. Stylo G - Come Over (23/08)
  • DJ Fresh feat. Ellie Goulding - Flashlight (11/10)
  • Ed Sheeran - All Of The Stars (12/07)
  • Ferreck Dawn and Redondo - Love Too Deep (13/09)
  • George Ezra - Listen To The Man (13/12, 20/12, 27/12, 03/01)
  • Henry Krinkle - Stay (15/11)
  • Hudson Taylor - Chasing Rubies (01/11)
  • The Independents - UKIP Calypso (01/11)
  • Joss Stone feat. Jeff Beck - No Man's Land (Green Fields Of France) (15/11)
  • Kid Ink feat. Usher and Tinashe - Body Language (20/09, 27/09)
  • M.O - Dance On My Own (06/09)
  • The Mega Giants - Prayer In C (30/08)
  • Naughty Boy feat. SAM ROMANS - Home (09/08)
  • Nicole Scherzinger - Run (29/11)
  • One Direction - 18 (22/11)
  • One Direction - Ready To Run (15/11)
  • One Direction - Where Do Broken Hearts Go (22/11)
  • Paolo Nutini - Iron Sky (13/09, 20/09, 27/09)
  • Pitbull feat. John Ryan - Fireball (29/11)
  • Redlight - 9TS (90s Baby) (04/10)
  • Royal Blood - Figure It Out (30/08)
  • Sander Van Doorn, Martin Garrix and DVBBS feat. Aleesia - Gold Skies (08/11)
  • The Script - It's Not Right For You (09/08)
  • T.I. feat. Iggy Azalea - No Mediocre (30/08)
  • Twin Atlantic - Brothers And Sisters (23/08)
The vote for the first round will close next Friday at 10:30pm.

 

Round 1:

 

You will be voting to eliminate 6 songs, like this:

  • -1: 6th least favourite
  • -2: 5th least favourite
  • -3: 4th least favourite
  • -4: 3rd least favourite
  • -5: 2nd least favourite
  • -6: Least favourite
You also get 2 saves, which you can use. The song with the most saves will be immune. You can use one each on two different songs, or both on the same song.

 

The vote closes on Friday 23th January 2014 at 10:30pm. The six songs who will have received the most points will be eliminated (if the saved song is one of them, the song with the 7th most points will be eliminated instead). The twenty-five others will advance to Round 2.

 

Round 2:

 

This time you are ranking your favourites. You can rank a top 10, top 12, top 15 or top 20, like this:

  • #1: +10 (top 10), +12 (top 12), +15 (top 15), +20 (top 20)
  • #2: +9 (top 10), +11 (top 12), +14 (top 15), +19 (top 20)
  • #3: +8 (top 10), +10 (top 12), +13 (top 15), +18 (top 20)
  • #4: +7 (top 10), +9 (top 12), +12 (top 15), +17 (top 20)
  • #5: +6 (top 10), +8 (top 12), +11 (top 15), +16 (top 20)
  • #6: +5 (top 10), +7 (top 12), +10 (top 15), +15 (top 20)
  • #7: +4 (top 10), +6 (top 12), +9 (top 15), +14 (top 20)
  • #8: +3 (top 10), +5 (top 12), +8 (top 15), +13 (top 20)
  • #9: +2 (top 10), +4 (top 12), +7 (top 15), +12 (top 20)
  • #10: +1 (top 10), +3 (top 12), +6 (top 15), +11 (top 20)
  • #11: +2 (top 12), +5 (top 15), +10 (top 20)
  • #12: +1 (top 12), +4 (top 15), +9 (top 20)
  • #13: +3 (top 15), +8 (top 20)
  • #14: +2 (top 15), +7 (top 20)
  • #15: +1 (top 15), +6 (top 20)
  • #16: +5 (top 20)
  • #17: +4 (top 20)
  • #18: +3 (top 20)
  • #19: +2 (top 20)
  • #20: +1 (top 20)

    And:

  • #23: -1
  • #24: -2
  • #25: -3
My recommendations:
  • If you don't like the songs you voted for that much, or you don't really care that much about the result, go for a top 10 or top 12.
  • If you really like the songs, but forgotten a few, go for a top 15.
  • If you really love a lot of the songs, or if you want to order everything and give almost every song a different number of points, go for a top 20.
The top 10 songs with the most votes will proceed to round 3.

 

Round 3:

 

You will vote like this:

  • #1: +10
  • #2: +9
  • #3: +8
  • #4: +7
  • #5: +6
  • #6: +5
  • #7: +4
  • #8: +3
  • #9: +2
  • #10: +1
The song with the most points will win.

 

 

Anyway, that will be for later. First, get voting for round one!
