Hoobastank - The Reason

 

Peak: 12

Chart Run: 12-17-20-35-42-53-66 (7 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Crawling In The Dark (#47)

 

 

Commentary: This is very beige and unremarkable. It's not something I'd rush to turn off but I wouldn't actively listen to it.

Rating: 6/10

 

 

 

4-4-2 - Come On England

 

Peak: 02

Chart Run: 2-3-8-37-58 (5 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: Was a re-working of Come On Eileen really necessary for a football song. I love listening to 3 Lions, Vindaloo & World In Motion when the Euro's or World Cup is on but when they get it wrong (like this) it just sounds terrible.

Rating: 3/10

 

 

 

O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tei

 

Peak: 03

Chart Run: 3-4-5-10-9-9-8-8-10-13-16-18-30-36-49-51-64 (17 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: Haiducii >>>>> this version. This song used to get on my nerves so much when I was little. On reflection, it's nowhere near as bad as I made out but it's certainly not the best foreign language hit.

Rating: 6.5/10

 

 

 

Twisted X - Born In England

 

Peak: 09

Chart Run: 9-33-60 (3 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Summer Of Rock 'N' Roll (#92)

 

 

Commentary: What a bad year 2004 was for football songs. Shame as it was the best we've done for ages. Still a bit bitter over that Sol Campbell goal. :angry: Shout might be the only good England song of recent times.

Rating: 5/10

 

 

 

Candee Jay - If I Were You

 

Peak: 14

Chart Run: 14-19-29-36-41-64 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Back For Me (#23)

 

 

Commentary: This isn't that bad. It's quite catchy and easy to dance to. I was expecting a lot worse.

Rating: 6/10

 

 

 

Slipknot - Duality

 

Peak: 15

Chart Run: 15-34-45-54-65-(x)-73 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Left Behind (#24)

 

 

Commentary: I was expecting this to be a bit more hardcore. Anyway I'm not a fan of this in the slightest, not my genre of music at all.

Rating: 5/10

 

 

 

The Girls Of FHM - Da Ya Think I'm Sexy

 

Peak: 10

Chart Run: 10-22-36-47-74-(x)-88 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: Well it wasn't as horrific as I was expecting. Still a bit of a train wreck though. This really shouldn't of ever happened.

Rating: 5/10

 

 

 

Nina Sky - Move Ya Body

 

Peak: 06

Chart Run: 6-8-9-11-13-20-27-31-49-52-70-(x)-99-99 (13 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: This is much better than the horrors that have been previously. The subtly of this is what makes it such a great dance song.

Rating: 8/10

2nd Highest Hit: You (#56)

 

 

Commentary: I'm really enjoying this. Much better than the previous ex All Saints members one hit. A very pleasant surprise.

The Hives - Walk Idiot Walk

 

Peak: 13

2nd Highest Hit: Hate To Say I Told You So (#23)

 

 

Commentary: This is really underrated. It has a great riff and is really catchy. One of the best of 2004 for me.

Rating: 8.5/10

 

 

 

Damien Rice - Cannonball

 

Peak: 09

Chart Run: 32-57-(x)-19-24-27-27-(x)-40-42-59-(x)-79-78-(x)-79-(x)-39-9-34-69-(x)-19-70-92-(x)-98 (20 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Unplayed Piano (#24)

 

 

Commentary: I love the Little Mix version of this but I'm not huge on this one. He sounds a bit disinterested and the video is rubbish.

Rating: 6.5/10

 

 

 

J-Kwon - Tipsy

 

Peak: 04

Chart Run: 84-85-87-92-4-4-6-9-12-14-19-32-41-54-64-(x)-87-86-92-(x)-99-(x)-91-81-67-82-89 (24 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: This is one of Kanye's favourite songs of all time. I don't mind it but it's certainly not a masterpiece. Certainly memorable but not exactly a classic.

Rating: 7.5/10

 

 

 

Ana Johnsson - We Are

 

Peak: 08

Chart Run: 8-17-20-28-48-56 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: Spider-Man 2 is one of my all time favourite films but I don't remember this song at all. It's quite Avril Lavigne-esque. Pretty average.

Rating: 6.5/10

 

 

 

Stellar Project ft Brandi Emma - Get Up Stand Up

 

Peak: 14

Chart Run: 14-29-38-51 (4 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: I'm not really feeling this one. Doesn't really seem to go anywhere.

Rating: 6/10

 

 

 

3 Of A Kind - Babycakes

 

Peak: 01

Chart Run: 1-2-2-5-5-7-7-11-20-22-29-32-51-58-(x)-95 (15 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: Sorry N-Dubz, 3 Of A Kind were the original UK R'N'B 3 piece. I used to be obsessed with this when I was little and although it's technically terrible I still love it all the same. Shame they never got round to a follow-up.

Rating: 10/10

Lloyd Banks - On Fire

 

Peak: 19

Chart Run: 19-29-35-46-54-74 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Hands Up (#43)

 

 

Commentary: Decent song but it's missing a good hook that would make it more memorable. This is likely to be the only time I hear this song.

Rating: 7/10

 

 

 

The Pirates ft Shola Ama, Naila Boss, Ishani & Enya - You Should Really Know

 

Peak: 08

Chart Run: 8-9-13-20-24-36-50-72 (8 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Commentary: An answer song to the earlier Mario Winans hit. I think I slightly prefer this one but they aren't that different.

Rating: 7.5/10

 

 

 

Houston ft Chingy, Nate Dogg & I-20 - I Like That

 

Peak: 11

Chart Run: 11-17-23-28-40-56 (6 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Ain't Nothing Wrong (#33)

 

 

Commentary: This is great, has a catchy hook and is easy to dance to. Shame he went a bit mental and gauged his eye out.

Rating: 7.5/10

 

 

 

Jentina - French Kisses

 

Peak: 20

Chart Run: 20-42-60 (3 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Bad Ass Strippa (#22)

 

 

Commentary: The rap ruins this a bit. It feels totally out of place in what was otherwise a fairly decent track. Certainly not a classic but ok to listen to.

Rating: 6/10
