We lose quite a few AQs here, A&E and (one of Kylie's best :( ) Wow, Better In Time, Love Song, This Is The Life, A-Punk (which honestly has surprised me up to now by continually keeping the status every year so it had to happen eventually) and most notably a 14th placer last year, No Air, which ends up 40 places lower. At least it means there's at least one new face in this year's top 15. 35 NE 24 Wiley - Wearing My Rolex 197 34 35 - Pendulum - Propane Nightmares 202 33 28 - MGMT - Time To Pretend 208 32 43 5 Alesha Dixon - The Boy Does Nothing 217 31 NE 14 Kanye West - Love Lockdown 220 30 21 - P!nk - So What 222 29 30 - Hot Chip - Ready For The Floor 225 28 31 - Guru Josh Project - Infinity 2008 229 27 16 - Killers - Human 233 26 NE 15 Rihanna - Rehab 235 25 15 - Adele - Hometown Glory 242 24 24 - Dizzee Rascal (feat.

By about halfway through it was struggling to budge off the bottom lot, but it got a huge push in the last half of the results so much so that it secures qualification for another year. I'm incredibly pleased at that, it strikes me as the sort of song that'd struggle to get through the playoff round if it lost the AQ status. And Wearing My Rolex must be another of those as after BARELY qualifying at the last minute in round 1 it BARELY makes it to an AQ this time, big claps to that. Basshunter's Now You're Gone is another big overperformer given its position in the playoff. And Rehab just a few places below it was in the top 15 for a lot of this, I'm surprised it ended up as low as 26th, but there we go, still searching for that playoff qualifer. By ONE point though, Work misses out on the opportunity to go further which is a bit gutting. I mean I don't particularly think the song is anything special but anything to upset a bit of the status quo is a good thing in my book. One Day Like This, Hometown Glory and Kids also miss out on their predicted places, but considering One Day Like This took a while to get going it's great that it ended where it did. 15 5 - Robyn - Be Mine! 271 14 6 - Leona Lewis - Run 287 13 19 - Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody 288 12 17 - Britney Spears - Piece Of Me 290 11 33 - Madonna (feat.

And I Kissed A Girl does nearly as much. Hot N Cold, a former regular winner of this round, doesn't go straight to the final which is mildly surprising. 5 13 - Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music 357 4 7 - Alphabeat - Fascination 362 3 4 - M.I.A - Paper Planes 408 2 2 - Saturdays - Up 416 1 1 - Rihanna - Disturbia 468 It makes room for Don't Stop The Music to get in though, which I'm pleased enough with, along with the beautifully happy Fascination, making up a good top 5 for 2008. Good job everyone, I have no complaints with this lot.
July 19, 20159 yr like 2007 another set of great songs gaining AQ status! :DÂ Work definitely deserves top 15 over Be Mine though as good as that is :(
July 19, 20159 yr Woop for the big climb to the top 5 for 'Don't Stop The Music', one of her best songs. New AQs for Kanye and Wiley is also good. Elbow and Adele losing their top 15 status in favour of 'Piece Of Me' and 'I Kissed A Girl' though :/ That's rather a blow to this website's music taste.
July 19, 20159 yr Ach, too late this week remembering. 2007 voting would've made no difference but I definitely would've done here! :(
July 19, 20159 yr Author Ach, too late this week remembering. 2007 voting would've made no difference but I definitely would've done here! :(Â That crossed my mind but you hadn't been online for the past 8 hours so I decided to go ahead :( Making One Day Like This get into the top 15 I assume? Which would have been wonderful, shame.
July 19, 20159 yr *Predictable comment from me* I can't at the placings for Girls Aloud. :( Nevertheless that is a pretty good Top 15 overall! Lol at Chasing Pavements.

Which would have been wonderful, shame. Yeah, I'd like to think I could've knocked Run out but doubt I'd have given Be Mine quite enough points. A-Punk easy through too :( And Hot N Cold into the top 5Â
