Comment: There was a time where I really thought this was going to become a hit for Bebe. It seemed to constantly be high in the YouTube charts and it felt like it just needed a slight push and it would be huge. Sadly it wasn't to be although I do think it the best thing she's been involved in since Take Me Home in 2014.

Comment: Just missing out on the top half is a song that won me over on the very first listen. I find the chorus where Cadet is giving Deno's said advice to be one of the catchiest of the year. I'm hoping it can continue to grow and become a big hit this year. The dynamic between Cadet/Deno is really fun and cheeky and works so well for the concept of the song. I'm surprised London never reached the top 40 for (AJ x) Deno seeming that it's one of the biggest underground hits of the year and seemed to spend ages in the top 100.

Comment: The biggest song of the year just scraped a top half placement here. This song has really benefited with me never properly loving it in any week but also not being bored of it giving it this extended run in my chart. Dua's vocals are brilliant and Calvin tries to make it sound a bit old-school and it really works. Still a little bitter that it stopped No Tears... for reaching the official number one though. :(

Comment: I love the sample of Jamie Foxx that makes up the backing track and the chorus to this track. It certainly made me laugh the first few times I heard it. The lyric are great and really show a rapper right at the top of the game. After his solid verse on I'm The one and this, I'm really going to need to give Chance more of a chance. I just love the way he ends this song with his first use of the phrase that makes up the sample: f**k you. You can really feel the anger coming out in that line. And the recreation of the Arthur meme for the single artwork is class.

Comment: One of the best chart moments of the year was this defying all odds to début at #1. Not Dave's absolute best but still a cracking tune. You know Fredo's taking it seriously when he mentions Harrods in a verse. :lol: Dave's done for the year but Fredo still has one more to come. Shame the HMV line might be out of date so soon. :(

Comment: This done really well to reach #1 in my chart seeming that it's from a 2 year old album that I had spammed. It charted after he released a 'film' with videos for every song from the album (like Lemonade) and this was one of the 4 which did not have official videos before its release. To show just how good the album is: all 19 tracks from it reached my charts and I would only rank this somewhere in the middle from the album and it still reached #1.

Comment: I really loved Fifth Harmony, they managed 8 #1's in my chart, but Camila was always my favourite member and it was not the same after she left. Lauren was the member I was expecting to step up and be the next leader of the group but Normani seemed to be the one that was getting popular. And when they both released their first solo singles I was expecting Normani's to be much better (especially as they were with Calvin Harris) but this song was such a great surprise. It's sounds so different to anything Fifth Harmony had done and it's almost Amy Winehouse-like. I really hope she continues to go down this path musically.

Comment: 2018 is the year that Tyga finally gets a hit in my chart without Chris Brown. The beat is absolutely undeniable here and is what really makes the song. The fact that Joyner Lucas is in the video makes 'Lucky You' even funnier where he's criticising rappers for sucking. Like seriously, Joyner you have heard the rest of Tyga's music right :lol: Tyga's actually not that bad on this one although the 'name random places' thing that he does at the end got old years ago.

Comment: It was so nice to hear Michael Jackson again. His vocals are absolutely outstanding on this and make you wish it was just a solo release from him. Drake's parts are fine but every time it's him I'm just counting down until MJ comes on again. It's a shame this already feels so forgotten because I really can't overstate how much I love MJ's parts on this.

Some songs here I'm not a fan of oops but I do like One Kiss, although it wore off on me pretty quickly. Advice I am quite liking even though it shouldn't be my sort of thing, it really is the earworm.

Comment: This took nearly a year to grow in my affections enough to chart it :lol: I had heard this when it was originally released and overlooked it because I hadn't been much of a fan of Haim's over music but it must have stuck with me because I found myself singing it on many occasions last year. Eventually, I gave in and listened to it again and loved it. There is a really good music video for this one too.

Comment: This has been a massive grower for me. I really wasn't feeling it on the first few listens but I always thought the production was brilliant. It just took the time for the my opinion on the rest of the song to catch up. Travis Scott feels like someone I should be a fan of but his new album just really hasn't done it for me but somehow even though he's doing mostly the same stuff here, I quite like him on this song.

Comment: Another Black Panther track and this is the first of 2 #1's from the album and just misses out on the top 40. Khalid has a tendency to make a songs a little too boring for my liking but he strikes just the right balance between relaxing and smooth here. He's never sounded better and Swae Lee's parts are just as good. One of the more relaxed songs from the soundtrack but certainly also one of the best.

Comment: The title track from my #2 album of the year just about makes the top 40. This gave Cole his first ever UK top 20 single (even if was just due to album streams) and was an instant stand-out from the first few listens. However as time has progressed I've found I haven't went back to this as much as a lot of the others from the album. If the next album comes this year as expected I think Cole is a lock-in to receive his first #1 in my charts.

Comment: A lead single from a Watsky album is always going to be a #1 here but this still hasn't done as well as you would expect it to. The 2-17 drop was on Sweetener release week and although it did stabilise after that it never quite reached the top area of my chart again. He attempts to focus more on the singing than rapping on this song which did gives me slight worries about the album but a killer single (Mean Ass Drunk) has got me hyped again. Roll on Friday and the full album.

Comment: Ant Clemons's uncredited vocals are the star of the show here. Kanye's throwing out some pretty humorous lines about infidelity but the chorus is so good it makes you forget about the rest of the track. Ty Dolla $ign's parts are alright but are so unimportant I didn't even know it was him for the longest time. This is by far the best Kanye track of the year but that doesn't mean there isn't still another one to come. ^_^

Comment: This song is now always going to take me back to my holiday in Spain. This is the perfect summer song; I have no idea why it took until the Autumn until it finally started to peak in the UK. Fredo's verses are pretty memorable and fun to sing-along to and the chorus is pretty understated but works well for the song.

Comment: I'm surprised I ended up ranking this as high as I did. Even with the long chart run I didn't feel like I connected with this one anywhere near as much as I did with Havana. Listening to it again now for the first time in a while, it's sounding brilliant and really highlights how much of a different and interesting voice Camila has. I'm so excited for her to come back.

Comment: I fully support critics panning Eminem albums if it means he returns on form with tracks like this. Joyner starts with the first half on the song and certainly does not disappoint. I've always stayed away from him beforehand because I'd heard bad things about the 'I'm Not Racist song' and thought he wasn't worth the time but he proved me wrong with this track. Even if the lyrics aren't anything outstanding, the flow is brilliant and makes the song really fun to listen to.

Comment: At first I wrote this off as being a crap soundtrack cash grab with a rubbish chorus because it sounded so tacked on at the end of the album. But as I actually started to listen to it properly, I noticed he was actually putting some effort in with some really clever, well-thought out lyrics. The bit in the 2nd verse where he's talking about cars then Gandhi for about 10 lines and your wondering where he's going with it and then he drops the backin' into ya/back in India line is undeniable smart and almost poetic. I don't think I've been able to talk about the film with saying 'Venommmmmmmm' either because of this so there's that.

Comment: A very rare occurrence here, a dance hit doing well in my chart in 2018. This has got to be the best Ella has ever sounded, she absolutely oozes charisma here. Yxng Bane's part is actually really nice but is far too short; he could do with double the bars. This certainly sneaked in the charts at the right time; this was my final #1 before the 7-week reign of No Tears Left To Cry.

This song just feels so effortless and is perfect music for when you're trying to relax. Ty Dolla $ign's verse is almost sounds romantic too, as long as you ignore what he's actually saying :lol:

Comment: I think this would have been a EOY top 10 contender had it been released earlier in the year: it's still in my weekly top 10 this week and will likely remain for a while longer with the album being released in 2 days. After the first 2 songs released from the album had me a little bit worried, that has came and completely vanquished any doubts with a massive return to form. It's quite experimental (like most of his work) but it's a risk that's paid off.

Comment: I really thought this was going to end up much higher but looking at what's still to come I just couldn't justify it. This was so nearly the biggest song of the year in the UK and I don't think it would have been undeserved. The video was certainly one of the most talked about of the year and is really emotional and uplifting. In a year where a lot of negative things have happened, the video was a needed distraction. As the Rap Critic pointed out, the 'I only love my bed and my mama' line has not aged well since the world found out he has a secret child.

Comment: This is probably the song that gets me hyped the most form 2018. The car-chase scene in Korea where this is used really got the adrenaline flowing. Vince has put in a solid verse every time I've heard him and Yugen Blakrok might be the surprise of the year. I'd never heard of her before but she absolutely murders this verse. I hope I hear more of her in the future. I also love how the song bleeps out a reference to the Riddler, the Marvel/DC war continues!

Nice to see Answerphone here, I always thought those three artists together was a bit of a weird collaboration, but hey, it works!

 

Answerphone really is a weird mix of artists but I have to agree it comes together so well. :D

Comment: While this is the only Eurovision song in my countdown it has broke some records. Not only does it finish higher than the first ever Eurovision song to reach #1 in my charts, last years Hey Mamma by the SunStroke Project (#48 in 2017), it has landed higher than Emmelie de Forest's Only Teardrops (#33 in 2013) to become the most sucessful Eurovision track of all time in my charts! I thought last years Eurovision was generally quite poor but this blew everything else away both times it was performed. I remember this was on last in the first semi-final and I had been incredibly underwhelmed throughout the show then Eleni performed and instantly changed that the second she started. It's a disgrace that the awful entry from Israel won over this. Always remember: yeah, yeah, fire!

Comment: This one was so unlucky to not reach #1 in my charts. I probably listened to it more during it's two weeks at #2 than I did most songs which made #1. It's impossible not to sing along to this, the song just flows so perfectly. Unfortunately from what else I've heard from him I think it's a one-off and he will remain a one hit wonder. Also Mr Wrld, if you can't move when you're sleeping, I think that's probably sleep paralysis and not lucid dreaming :lol:

Comment: This is probably the surprise hit of the year in my charts. I've never really enjoyed Bruno's music so I wasn't very excited to hear a collab between him and Cardi but it won me over on first listen. It does sound pretty old-skool but it works so well. Cardi opens the song with perhaps the best verse of her career (although I do enjoy her verse on Girls Like You even if I don't like the rest of the song) which perfectly introduces the fun vibe of the song. More songs like this please Bruno!

Comment: It's clear that this isn't an album highlight and would not have reached #1 in my charts if it wasn't released before the album but that doesn't mean it's not still a tune. While I didn't think Lemon worked particularly well, I think Pharrell tried a very similar thing here with the repeated sample of one sentence as a background and it works much better. I do also quite like the video even though, as Ariana said, I have no idea what's meant to be going on. Nicki's verse is pretty nice too!

Comment: I thought this was a decent album track when it first came out but when the video was released it really hit me. The video is just a tour video but it's so cute and just made me even more disappointed that I never managed to go to the Glory Days tour. The song was my last #1 of 2017 which stopped it from being slightly higher in this countdown due to its best week not being in this year. I do wish this was chosen as a single now. :(

Watt's EOY History:

2018 23 Let Me Go (Hailee Steinfeld & Alesso ft Florida Georgia Line & Watt)

 

Comment: After getting a #2 single for consecutive years, Haille finally reached #1 in 2018 with this absolute banger. The verses are great but the chorus's are perfect and are what makes the song such an earworm. I love how Alesso quite subtly changes the beat as soon as the chorus starts to make it just that hype. I've never hated Florida Georgia Line like most seem to and think they work well on this song.

Comment: Baring a weird tangent he goes on towards the end (the bit about colours, seriously what's that all about) this is 6 minutes of pure unfiltered brilliance with some crazy creative wordplay fuelled by anger towards critics and Trump. At first I preferred Lucky You but sometimes I just love listening to bars without any hook and this became one of my most listened to songs of the year

Comment: While Gambino doesn't quite make it back-to-back years in my EOY top 10 he did get his first #1 in America and his first UK hit with this piece of brilliance. This is a very important song with a strong video which deserves its place as one of the most discussed of the year. While the video certainly helps in bringing out the message of the song, I still think it can be enjoyed on its own. Gambino became one of the many artists denied their first #1 in my charts due to No Tears... but spoiler alert: he's already made that irrelevant in 2019.

Comment: Kicking off the top 20 is the first #1 of 2018. I listened to Run The Jewels 3 for the first time at the end of 2017 and this song was such a stand-out. The sample from the 'Ticketron advert' is infectious and El-P & Killer Mike are dropping punchlines all over the place. While this is a brag-track it's so fun and imaginative you won't care. You know it's a good year when sounds that are this good can only reach 20 EOY.

Comment: While it's obvious that this was never going to be for everyone, I think the concept really works here. Dicky's not the best rapper in the world but he does provide some fun lines and Chris Brown's chorus is one of the biggest of the year. I think the Ed Sheeran, DJ Khaled & Kendall Jenner cameos and the end are where the song is at its peak, especially if you don't know where it's going beforehand. Still can't believe it managed to reach #1 in the official chart :D.

Comment: The lead single from the (2nd) biggest film of the year took its time to grow on my originally but by the time I had seen the film and spammed the soundtrack, it was quickly becoming one of my favourites of the year. Sza sounds so much better here than she did on that Maroon 5 song here and completely steals all the shine away from the always awesome Kendrick. The album version with the slightly extended verse of hers is heavenly. This was just pipped at the post for the highest ranked Black Panther single.

Comment: J. Cole's highest ever EOY finish comes from a (kinda) diss track. Very unfortunate to be released the same day as No Tears Left To Cry and in so getting denied Cole's first ever #1. This song is perfect. The and arrogant slightly condescending tone works so well seeming that he doesn't resort to disses and jokes; he just calmly explains why Pump's fame is temporary and gives him the advice to make as much money and spend it wisely while he still can. Then for the final few bars he switches it up and provides what is possibly the best burn of all time accentuated with a smirky, aghast at the fact he even has to respond, 'n***a' where he almost sounds like he's cracking up while he's saying it.

Comment: 2018 seems to be the year where foreign-languages began to have an influence on my chart; this isn't even the highest places non-English song :o I've aways kinda followed Becky's career and my previous favourite of hers was another Spanish song 'Sola'. I decided to check this one out properly as I saw the video was starting to really blow up and it was #1 in Spain during my holiday and I heard it on the radio a few times. The video has a really fun concept (and Natti Natasha looks stunning :o) which really brings the song to life. I really wish this would have been one of the big Spanish songs to take off in the UK as I really didn't like any of the one's that actually did so.

Comment: I really don't understand the near universal dislike of this song on this website. When I first heard Eminem was collaborating with Ed Sheeran I was really worried and expecting one of those really forgettable and boring ones he sometimes does (Guts Over Fear anyone). However, this song is actually really adventurous. I can't say I've heard a hit single tackle abortion in such an honest and serious way like on here. Some of the lines are genuinely quite chilling. And to give it up to Ed, this chorus is easily one of the best things he's ever done.

Comment: The undeniable soundtrack of the summer! And let's be honest, this would probably be my EOY #1 had we beaten Croatia. After spamming this just before Euro 16 so much it reached my #1 I swore I wouldn't get excited about our chances this year at all but Kane and co made it possibly the best summer of my life. In the current times we live in it was really quite beautiful to see this unite the whole of England for a couple of weeks in June/July. I managed to go to England v Croatia v2 at Wembley a few months ago where England guaranteed their place in the Nation's League finals and singing this at the end is my moment of the year.

Comment: Any collaboration between The Weeknd & Kendrick Lamar is going to be an easy #1 here, nevermind one that's from an MCU film. Just to highlight how good both artists are, this is nowhere near their very best and (as long as you count features) they both still have songs to come in this countdown.

Comment: The latest to fall at the unlucky 11 position and just miss the EOY top 10 are A$AP Rocky & Skepta. This originally sounded like a very random collaboration but it works so well. The instrumental is really the star here and while I've seen people suggest it samples a song from Total War it actually samples 'Andean Stroll Panpipe 02 from a default Apple GarageBand pack. If that doesn't prove anyone can make a killer instrumental I don't know what does. :lol: This was in a very tight battle to reach the top 10 with a song that it always seemed to be next to in both the official chart and in my very own chart. Also, look how close Rocky was to having all his entries landing in the top 10 of my EOY charts. Almost makes me want to change the order now.
