So 18 people rated the singles, a fantastic turnout I think, and the results of them will be coming shortly :D A much lower turnout for the full rate, so here are the album track results:

 

1 9.25 Mary Go Round

2 9.00 Better Than You (feat. Rita Ora)

3 8.88 Take Off

4 8.63 Just In Case

5 7.75 Another One

6 7.00 Glass Girl

7 6.88 Drowning

8 6.63 Headphones

9 6.50 Lift Off (feat. Pharrell) (more 8s)

10 6.50 Pictures

 

The results for the following are coming next:

 

CAN'T SAY NO

VEGAS GIRL

TURN AROUND

ANIMAL

R U CRAZY

TALKING ABOUT

ROYALTY

 

Any predictions?

I want 'Vegas Girl' to win, that's one of my favourite guilty pleasure tracks. :wub:

 

I'd say 'Turn Around' or 'R U Crazy' will be more likely to walk it though.

6 6.11 Talking About

7 5.31 Royalty

 

So Conor's two most recent singles end up last on the singles rate. Talking About premiered earlier this year and received a-list Radio 1 support, but missed the top 40 due to streaming, becoming his lowest charting single by quite a way. Royalty is looking to take that record when released on 10th July though, with no radio support at all :drama:

 

 

I think those two were my highest rated singles so that's awkward! :unsure:

5 6.58 Can't Say No

 

Conor's debut single falls out right after his two most recent tracks. Can't Say No is both Conor's highest charting and highest selling track, peaking at #2 behind Carly Rae Jepsen's Call Me Maybe.

 

I expected 'Better Than You' to be the top album track :o Didn't know 'Mary Go Round' was so loved. 'Just In Case' is my personal favourite so i'm happy that has done well :D

 

Expected results in the singles so far. 'R U Crazy' / 'Vegas Girl' will probably be next and 'Turn Around' for the win please~

Not a good sign that his latest single came last, definitely gonna flop harder than his last "Talking About". Which actually weren't that bad, but it was just left way too long after "R U Crazy", if it was brought out a couple of months after that, then I think it would have done a lot better, coz it's actually quite catchy, but a bit dated now though.

 

Also surprised that "Can't Say No" didn't have a better average on this, it's a very decent debut, I think "Animal" will be the next one out.

Talking About I actually liked! I mean, I can't seeing myself going back to it in a year or so but I was jamming to it upon release.

4 6.97 Vegas Girl

 

Vegas Girl was Conor's second single, and also his second top 5 hit, making it to #4. It had a slightly odd chart run of 4-9-19-57-x, such a huge drop in week 4 after holding up relatively well :lol: The video also features the cringeworthy dialogue at the beginning with "Alora", gahhhh...

 

 

'Royalty' was good for a few listens, but after that it just got tiring. 'Talking About' is still a jam though. :wub: 'Turn Around' for the win please :cheer:

3 7.78 R U Crazy

 

Seemingly the first single from Conor's second album, R U Crazy got released in October 2013 and reached #4 in the charts, having the second most weeks top 40 of any of his singles at 6 weeks (Turn Around had the most with 10 weeks, with Can't Say No also on 6). R U Crazy failed to be followed up until earlier this year with Talking About, the #44 smash :drama:

 

 

ANIMAL vs TURN AROUND

  • Author

2 7.89 Animal

 

So ultimately, Animal can't quite win over Turn Around, but it's done very well to make it to #2 with four 11 scores along the way. Animal was Conor's fourth single and fourth top 10 hit, peaking at #6. It spent 2 weeks top 40 and had a weird chart run like Vegas Girl, going 34-6-7-11-34-x in its top 40 run :drama:

 

 

1 8.42 Turn Around (feat. Ne-Yo)

 

Turn Around is Conor's lowest peaking track out of his top 10 hits, "only" making it to #8, but it spent 10 weeks top 40 making it the Conor single with the best longevity. A worthy winner IMO, a great track!

Thanks very much to everyone who participated! :D

The entire top 3 are all amazing songs, glad "Animal" did better than I thought it would have, "R U Crazy" is also decent and "Turn Around" is a great winner and definitely stands as his most memorable hit to date.
