It really is well put together and I need to go back to it more.

Video 7Pc6uv8N2RY Commentary Another of the surprisingly small number of BJSC entries in my countdown this year, how I only gave this song 2 points in the actual final is beyond me (sorry Jacob) but it is such a powerful song, not the sort I would usually enjoy that much but it really did grow on me, his voice is just so good and there's something about it that just got me singing it in my head. Top 100 Chart History 2019 07 Carissa
January 1, 20205 yr I totally missed Feeder releasing new material! Will need to check that out & the Clairo track too. (& finally get back to my own too after being essentially offline for a week :'))
January 1, 20205 yr Cerrone was a real highlight of BJSC this year, would've charted rather highly in my own 2019 list <3 (must be rather rare that me and you share a big BJSC favourite!)
January 1, 20205 yr I think I said before but 'Anything I Do' was my least fave of Cliq's 4 singles although still rather great (EOY #221). I also liked 'The Impact' from BJSC and very much enjoyed 'Carissa' (EOY #180)
January 1, 20205 yr Ay here's a comment for u x I'm bad at checking these EOY threads but I'll try and leave a few comments on other people's considering I'm doing one myself ~ I don't know the majority of these songs (unsurprisingly as I don't know most songs in your weekly charts despite you posting a whole top 100 every week, our music radars are clearly in totally separate worlds :lol:) but from what I've heard I do like these ones: 69 Metronomy - Salted Caramel Ice Cream liked the video more than the song iirc but it was cool, though I preferred 'Lately' 70 Queen Zee - Loner 71 Cassper Nyovest & Los Unidades - Timbuktu (ft. Stormzy & Jess Kent) I originally charted this because of you recommending it to me so yay for that xx 74 Drab Majesty - Ellipsis :wub: 80 Blossoms - Your Girlfriend 82 Alec Benjamin - Must Have Been the Wind Alec is an incredibly talented songwriter, one of the best of the artists that Joseph stans x 84 Vulfpeck - Darwin Derby :funky: 87 Marshmello - Here With Me (ft. CHVRCHES) I should probably hate this but I can't help but love it 94 M-22 & Kiara Nelson - After Hours 100 Hot Chip - Hungry Child easily my favourite song so far and quite likely it'll end up being my fave in your top 100, so of course it's at #100 :kink: glad it's made it in though! And from those announced since I was also a fan of Cerrone and DESERT STAR from BJSC. x
January 1, 20205 yr I'm just listening to Any Other Way by jens, I've not heard this one before! I know Lottery, Awkward and Wish I Was Right for You, all were top 10 hits in my chart :D Any Other Way is another tune, he's a really interesting new popstar, hoping we can get an album in 2020 from him.
January 2, 20205 yr I've only heard of 3 of your top 100 so far :kink: Blossoms would be my favourite of those 3. I will try and give some of the others a listen soon. Maybe the Lost Frequencies track because Are You With Me was a massive tune.
January 2, 20205 yr Author Lots of comments, I am now happy :D I totally missed Feeder releasing new material! Will need to check that out & the Clairo track too. (& finally get back to my own too after being essentially offline for a week :')) Hope you enjoy giving them a listen! Thanks Jupiter :D Cerrone was a real highlight of BJSC this year, would've charted rather highly in my own 2019 list <3 (must be rather rare that me and you share a big BJSC favourite!) I think there was one of your entries I pointed highly this year but when I went to look it caused my laptop to crash so I've had to re-write all my comments :P Glad you were a fan of Cerrone anyway, even if it didn't get to represent my country. Thanks Chez! I think I said before but 'Anything I Do' was my least fave of Cliq's 4 singles although still rather great (EOY #221). I also liked 'The Impact' from BJSC and very much enjoyed 'Carissa' (EOY #180) Glad you were still a fan of Anything I Do even if it wasn't one of your favourites - thanks Dan!

And from those announced since I was also a fan of Cerrone and DESERT STAR from BJSC. x Hungry Child has appeared in a ton of EOYs I've looked at today so it must be a crowd pleaser! Glad you ended up liking Timbuktu as well, Lately was actually quite close to my EOY top 100 as well as it spend quite a while in the lower realms of my chart but I do prefer Salted Caramel - thanks Bré :D I'm just listening to Any Other Way by jens, I've not heard this one before! I know Lottery, Awkward and Wish I Was Right for You, all were top 10 hits in my chart :D Any Other Way is another tune, he's a really interesting new popstar, hoping we can get an album in 2020 from him. I gave a few of jens' newer material a listen and I think Any Other Wat is still my favourite but looking forward to new material nonetheless! I've only heard of 3 of your top 100 so far :kink: Blossoms would be my favourite of those 3. I will try and give some of the others a listen soon. Maybe the Lost Frequencies track because Are You With Me was a massive tune. Beat of My Heart is quite similar to Are You With Me actually so you might be a fan if you liked that! Thanks Lewis :D

January 2, 20205 yr Hey Pete, here is another comment for you :D These are my favourites so far: 56 Desert Star - Carissa 74 Drab Majesty - Ellipsis 84 Vulfpeck - Darwin Derby 87 Marshmello - Here With Me (feat. CHVRCHES) 100 Hot Chip - Hungry Child A fantastic trio of BJSC picks there, 'Carissa' and 'Ellipsis' are class, while 'Darwin Derby' was weird but wonderful :lol: Marshmello is a bit hit and miss with me but I did appreciate 'Here With Me', it's pretty cute! Hot Chip have been on top form lately also, I should really check out their latest album at some point as I've enjoyed every song I've heard from it. Speaking of discoveries, I also must check out the AURORA song that appeared so far considering that I liked 'The Seed' enough to send it to a BJSC spin-off :kink: I suspect that is still to come *.*
January 3, 20205 yr Hey Pete! Here are my favourites from your top 100 so far: 94. M-22 & Kiara Nelson - After Hours 93. Mans Zelmerlöw & Dotter - Walk With Me 92. James Blunt - Cold 91. Bilal Hassani - Roi 87. Marshmello - Here With Me (feat. CHVRCHES) 80. Blossoms - Your Girlfriend 79. Ofenbach - Rock It 75. Victor Crone - Storm 61. Alle Farben - Walk Away (ft. James Blunt) 60. Keane - The Way I Feel 55. Dynoro & Ina Wroldsen - Obsessed 54. Avicii - SOS (feat. Aloe Blacc) Great chart!
January 3, 20205 yr thought 'Obsessed' would be a fair bit higher here actually but fair enough, it was a rather good follow-up for Dynoro plus Ina has a wonderful voice (although it only just made my EOY top 250). pleased to see 'SOS' firmly in the top 100 too, it will be charting a fair bit higher on my list however. I suspect your other Avicii entry is 'Peace of Mind' and it'll be interesting to see if it ends up higher on your list or mine...

Yeah I couldn't really justify putting Obsessed any higher after it's fairly short chart run but still a great song! As for Peace of Mind *checks EOY* yeah it will be interesting to see how high it is for you! Thanks Dan :D

I don't know what it is about it but I just love it, the lyrics, the melody, the instrumentation are all just wonderful, and the song doesn't grow old either (as you can see by its mammoth Top 40 chart run). I said this earlier but if you need an album to listen to then turn to this one!

Video yf2_uAtzWn8 Commentary And just missing out on the Top 50 is another long burner which failed to make the Top 10 from Dutch singer Blanks (who looks scarily like one of my flatmates from last year). This is an incredibly funky indie-pop track, it took a while to grow on me but it is incredibly infectious! Top 100 Chart History 2019 13 Let's Get Lost 2019 24 Higher
January 3, 20205 yr I also stan Alec Benjamin. So, it's great to see him here Pete. :dance: Avicii was my dance hero and I like SOS of course. :wub: Listening to Let's Get Lost for the first time now and I like it. I'd like to see this kind of Indie Pop in the official chart. Excellent chart so far :cheer:
