Posted December 29, 20186 yr BUZZJACK'S ULTIMATE UK NUMBER ONE SINGLE http://ajournalofmusicalthings.com/wp-content/uploads/UK-number-1.png The quest to find Buzzjack's favourite UK number 1 single starts here. This hasn't been done since 2012 when the winner was 'Wuthering Heights' by Kate Bush. The rest of the top five was made up by 'Toxic','Somebody That I Used To Know'.'Titanium' and 'Bad Romance'. As many of us were not around six years ago,the results this time could be completely different. I am firstly asking you to choose your favourite 30 number 1 singles and put them in order with 30 points for your favourite down to 1 point for your least favourite. The 200 singles with the most points will advance to the semi-finals. There will be four semis of 50 songs each. The top 25 from each semi-final will go through to the final rate where you will give a score to each of the 100 singles and the one with the highest average will be the winner. So for now,please list your top 30. You can edit your lists at any time if you see a song on someone else's list that you forgot about. I won't start counting up the points until the closing date has passed. You have 16 days to vote. You can see a list of number 1 singles here: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=197169 Closing date Sunday 13th January 11.59pm Edited January 15, 20196 yr by Sausage Rollo
