It may have taken a bit of time for every song to get a vote ('J'OUVERT' was the last one fyi) but almost all of them managed to get at least 2 in the end! Only 'Body Talks' got just 1. 'Barking' and 'Psycho' prove that 'River' is, surprisingly, not in fact the least popular big hit of 2018. 'Ruin My Life' got 10 votes but made nobody's top half; '1999 WILDFIRE' and 'Blood // Water' are the highest with less than 5 votes. Some songs that have done very well in other games missed out (eg 'Body' on reshuffle, 'We Appreciate Power' in the Indie SOTY results right now, 'High Hopes' with that multichart position), but altogether nothing too surprising I think. I was hoping 'Heart To Break' might make it but I'll take #51, the Kim Petras takeover will be coming.... someday.

23 9 George Ezra - Paradise 190

22 22 Sigrid - Strangers 191

21 Christine & The Queens (feat. Dâm-Funk) - Girlfriend 203

 

'when the party's over' was hanging near the bottom for ages but got a lot of big votes near the end! The opposite for 'Fuego' (the highest song on under 10 votes), which had been top 10 for a while. Kind of surprising to see any Post Malone song that popular on here, and Avril's non-hit doing so well while I would guess she hasn't had an AQ since...... maybe 'What The Hell' used to be one?

 

Semi-finalists

20 18 Dynoro & Gigi D'Agostino - In My Mind 204

19 Drake - Nice For What 208

18 Robyn - Honey 212

17 Mabel & Not3s - Fine Line 214

16 Ariana Grande - thank u, next 221

15 14 Cardi B, Bad Bunny & J Balvin - I Like It 226

14 10 Au/Ra & CamelPhat - Panic Room 230

13 7 George Ezra - Shotgun 239

12 Charli XCX & Troye Sivan - 1999 244

11 5 5 Seconds Of Summer - Youngblood 260

10 23 Rita Ora - Let You Love Me 262

9 Janelle Monáe - Make Me Feel 264

8 13 Calvin Harris & Sam Smith - Promises 272

7 6 Clean Bandit (feat. Demi Lovato) - Solo 278

6 11 Ariana Grande - breathin 302

 

3 of my favourites just hung on to the top 20 (though I love 'Girlfriend' too) so I was quite nervous when adding the last votes :') Love that 'Panic Room' did so well too! Robyn and Janelle win the 'non-hit' crown, the former maybe looking to provide a smaller continuation of 'Dancing On My Own' when it expires from the last 10 years? 'thank u, next' got many votes but was low-priority Ariana for most; only 1 person had no other Ariana songs ahead of it. 'breathin' was #2 for most of the way, but (comparatively) really fell off towards the end.

 

Direct finalists

5 Mark Ronson (feat. Miley Cyrus) - Nothing Breaks Like A Heart 308

4 12 Ariana Grande - God is a woman 327

3 35 Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper - Shallow 330

2 1 Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa - One Kiss 364

1 2 Ariana Grande - no tears left to cry 620

 

A brand new debut in the top 5 :o :o Almost certainly because its late November release date didn't provide enough time to make the multichart EOY top 35, I assume. Not only was 'breathin' #2, but 'God is a woman' was #3 for a while too... but an all-Ariana top 3 was not to be. Not to diminish her massive accomplishments, as 'no tears left to cry' is so far ahead of the pack, with far more points than any other ROTD annual winner this year..... except 'Into You', which scored one point more. Which makes 3 of the last 4 years won by Ariana.

A miracle has happened :o A song nominated by me is finalist. Nothing Breaks Like a Heart of course. :P

Multiple nominations of mine in non-flopping shocker... is this real life?

 

'no tears left to cry' has held up better for me a year later compared to 'One Kiss' (the overplay was real!) so I'm pleased about the swap at the top - with such a huge points gap as well, wow!! Even better is my favourite song of hers 'God is woman' climbing into the top 5 yessss :wub:

Much more supportive of this Ariana landslide than 'Into You'. Would be very happy to see 'no tears left to cry' go all the way to win ROTD this year. Yay for 'Shallow' and 'God is a woman' being top 5 too, a pretty solid first top 5 for 2018. Surprised but pleased that 'Nice For What' has made the semi-finals, I know it is popular by Drake standards on here but still! Think that is my only nomination that's got past the first round, slay. 'Girlfriend', 'Lost Without You', 'This Is America', 'Better Now' and 'when the party's over' are also very pleasing inaugural AQs. And ROSALÍA getting to 100 points! A success!

Shocked Sigrid didn’t at least go to the semi-finals! Thought it would have been a classic Buzzjack fave!

 

Glad that one pre-DCMU Mabel song is a hit on here though, Finders Keepers & One Shot’s performances are an injustice.

 

Also, Janelle :wub:

Happy with how well my nominations of Four Out Of Five, Darkside and Lost Without You did - Freya even becoming an AQ! Also impressed how close Lucid Dreams and Jumpsuit were to the AQ places. Glad In My Mind could hang on to a semi-final place, nice to see Panic Room in there too. And WOW at that score for No Tears Left To Cry!!! Hoping it wins the whole thing this year.

Thought I may as well post this since I have it, here are all the votes :magic:

Janelle in a buzzjack top 10?! Guess I’ll have to listen to that one then

 

very excited to see how no tears left to cry fares in that final, proper contender material

Also I’m going to need the chart forum to familiarise themselves with Broken Love and grandson (Blood//Water & Thoughts & Prayers) generally, two of those three may have the BJSC tag but unironically they’re some of the best music to come out of 2018
What a start for no tears :wub: Incredible to see Make Me Feel in the top 10 (my nomination, though I was surprised to see that it hadn't been in contention for the list in the first place), as well as 1999, Honey & Girlfriend not far below (it's a really solid top 10 & top 20 too!) + I'll echo Bré regarding MALAMENTE amassing 100 points.

Will there be a list of how many nominations qualified for each member? It's presumably a lot of effort but I do enjoy seeing it.

That's not usually a thing, is it? I don't recall ever seeing one for ROTD.

 

I made one though! Didn't take too long, just making a list of nominations that made each year's top 35 and ctrl+f-ing them in the nominations thread. The first number is all that made the top 35, the second is just top 20. The top 20 songs are in red.

1 - 1 - brokenrecords - Make Me Feel

1 - 0 - UltraME! - Head Above Water

 

Many songs were posted as backups once before someone picked them, a couple twice, and one 3 times: 'Nice For What', by Dan, me and Jade before Bré finally sent it through :magic:

 

Dobbo was the first one to nominate, which I expect helped increase this tally compared to later nominators when more popular songs had already been chosen.

Ah, looks like there wasn't one last year but there was the year before, back when there was two rounds for each year. Thanks for compiling that!
