Take Care misses out on the top 10 in the cruelest manner :cry: posting fewer 11's to the #10 track. This is a brilliant section of songs with 4 of my favourite tracks appearing here. Avicii manages a position a lot higher than I imagine he would these days.

 

So the top 10 will be revealed a little later comprising of: Born To Die, Dance With Me Tonight, Domino, Marry The Night, Paradise, Shake It Out, Somebody That I Used To Know, Stronger, The One That Got Away & Titanium. Who's your favourite for the win?

Lowest Rating: -1 (Fgiboy2511)

 

 

So kicking off the top 10 courtesy of more 11 votes it's Katy Perry's The One That Got Away. This was an early frontrunner but nearly slipped out of the top 10 entirely. Finishing just ahead it's Coldplay's #1 Paradise.

7. Gotye feat. Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know

Lowest Rating: 0 (darkstar79 & Mackenzie)

 

 

So the first track on the edition comes home in 7th with surprisingly two -1 votes for such a high finisher. Olly Murs is in 8th with his #1 Dance With Me Tonight. These were the two highest tracks containing male vocals.

Happy to see Coldplay Top 10 :)

We had to wait until the top six to find a song that didn't received at least one 0 or -1. That track is Lady Gaga's Marry The Night. Into the top 5 and we have Florence + The Machine with Shake It Out, another leading contender that just fell away a bit throughout the fortnight.

The one that got away is utterly amazing :heart:

Lowest Rating: 2 (ThePensmith)

 

 

At #4 we have Jessie J with her other track on this edition, Domino. This fares a lot better than ballad Who You Are and does very well considering it didn't receive a single 11. Onto the podium we go & Lana Del Rey lands in third with Born To Die, one of only 3 songs to score an average of above 8.

 

Which leaves us with Stronger Vs. Titanium.

Jessie J top 5 :cheer:

Congratulations to our winner... :cheer:

After a valiant battle Titanium takes the runners up spot with almost certainly Guetta's most popular track on here. It was close but Kelly Clarkson wins the Now 81 rate with Stronger, coincidentally the 2nd Now Rate in a row with a winning song entitled 'Stronger' :magic: Remarkably it didn't receive any scores lower than 6 so is definitely the worthy winner. Personally I'm not big on either track but prefer Stronger of the two.

 

Thanks to the 26 others of you who voted in this & look out for the Now 72 Rate, commencing imminently...

Amazing winner, stronger is so good and in my top 3 from now 81 :heart:

Looking forward to now 72, one of my favourite nows :wub:
