May 4, 20205 yr Author 7. Bridgit Mendler - Ready Or Not dPKG1-3LXBs At #7 we head to 2013 for this piece of pure-pop perfection from Bridgit Mendler. This defined my spring & summer in 2013 and is just a fun and great pop track! Ready Or Not did pretty well in the UK with 4 weeks top 10 and 10 weeks top 40! <3 It's a shame she was a one hit wonder cos Hurricane deserved to smash and Blonde is also a slept on bop. this was one of the harder ones but some of u got this! All the wrong guesses are other blonde female artists but y'all went for artists with more than one smash for this!

May 4, 20205 yr Same here haha I was sure I knew it but having seen it I don't!! I was getting Katy Perry vibes but already had her so didn't put down again and would have been wrong anyway! Yeah, Katy Perry was my first thought for that one too! Damn, should really have got Lily Allen :o
May 4, 20205 yr Don't even remember that Bridget Mendler song so would never have got that in a million years.
May 4, 20205 yr Author 6. Paloma Faith - Only Love Can Hurt Like This PaKr9gWqwl4 And at #6 we have a career best from Paloma Faith with the stunningly gorgeous Only Love Can Hurt Like This. I was such a massive Paloma stan back in 2014 (I still like her but most of her recent material hasn't done much for me) and this was my fave from APC so watching this take off to become her biggest hit was fab <3 The song is absolutely gorgeous. This spent 5 weeks top 10 and managed a fantastic 20 weeks top 40! this has also held up rly well, it still feels well remembered today and is by FAR her most streamed solo song on Spotify Again quite a lot of y'all manage to pick up points on this whilst a few of you got it was Paloma but didn't know the song/guessed the wrong one. MrAndrewMan's tactic of guessing random artists for ones he didn't know was unlucky here as if he answered Paloma for two more answers he didn't know, he would've got a point here! Points: Mango, Scene, Jade, Dan, SamJudd, Bjork, West, Coi, PeteFromLeeds, Riser, Rush, :') - 2pts Chrissmith276 - Paloma Faith - Never Tear Us Apart - 1pt Jordan Lee, Cremey - Paloma Faith (no song) - 1pt Wrong Guesses: MrAndrewMan - Madonna No Answer: everyone else
May 4, 20205 yr Author 5. Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down Dkk9gvTmCXY At #5 we have Taylor's most recent top 10 hit in the UK with Lover's 2nd album You Need To Calm Down. It spent 2 weeks top 10 and 11 weeks top 40! The song is ofc fab but not a major Taylor fave of mine. The main reason I chose this is cos I STAN this artwork SO MUCH <3 <3 I remember when the artwork was revealed I saw so many negative reactions before I saw the artwork myself so I was prepared for the worst (cos we'd already had enough me!sses this era) but I actually think it might be my fave Taylor artwork ever?!?! I love it so much. And damn we're SO CLOSE to a full house again here, are we gonna get one from the top 4?? was def expecting this to be one of the most successful point getters for u guys with me choosing the iconic butterfly/snake back 'tattoo'!

May 4, 20205 yr Author 4. Delta Goodrem - Lost Without You YMYUYtsUGgg At #4 we head all the way back to 2003 for Australian star Delta Goodrem's stunning pop ballad Lost Without You. I've been playing this so much the last few weeks, this is such a great lyrically and vocally song and there's something so beautiful and timeless about this <3 a classic <3 this spent 3 weeks top 10 and 9 weeks top 40 in the UK, whilst finish in the EOY top 10 in Australia where it smashed gigantically obvs *.* And just 6 of you manage to score some points on this one, with nearly as many guesses for Rachel & the group she was in!

May 4, 20205 yr Author 3. Taylor Swift feat. Brendon Urie of Panic! at the Disco - Me! FuXNumBwDOM At #3 we have Taylor again with the lead single from lover, Me! My fave iconic messy bop, imma not talk too much about this cos I basically wrote an essay on it in the Taylor artist forum last week so go check that out if u want rly fascinating in-depth thoughts on this song xxx :lol: Anyway this spent 3 weeks top 10 and 9 weeks top 40, quite solid but yeah it did slightly underperform. And yep I did include 3 Taylor songs in this :kink: Though I do have to apologise for the awful outstretched part of the exclamation mark I included in the game, I was meant to change it to some other part of the cover but I forgot and remembered after I uploaded :kink: This slots halfway between the other two Taylor songs in how many of u got this one correct. Points: Jordan Lee, Jade, Dan, SamJudd, Coi, MrAndrewMan, Riser, Rush, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Charli XCX Mango - Demi Lovato Bjork - Paramore PeteFromLeeds - Something really familiar No Answer: everyone else
May 4, 20205 yr Author 2. Dua Lipa - Don't Start Now oygrmJFKYZY At #2 we have the instant classic Don't Start Now from Dua Lipa. Y'all know about its chart records, how its basically spent forever in the top 10 (with three weeks at #2) etc so I won't go on x but what a smash, it deserved 1 ahh! This was instantly my fave Dua song (for two and a half months and then Physical decimated it) and this is my fave song from 2019 (though Christmas Tree Farm will probs overtake after a few more Xmas' of spamming that song), just a perfectly euphoric disco BOP <3 And yeah I included this one in case I made the rest of the quiz too hard so as I love this song, I decided to put it in here and make it really easy for y'all to get. Which tf none of u let me down :heart: and here is the first and only full house of the game! Points: FULL HOUSE - 2pts :cheer: :cheer: Wrong Guesses: No Answer: everyone else
May 4, 20205 yr 3 x Taylor lol It looked like a lipstick mark on a glass to me so would never have got from what I was looking for!
May 4, 20205 yr not so familiar with Delta, she definitely looks a bit like Rachael Stevens in there :D didn't get #3 either
May 4, 20205 yr But actually, now I realise who the person organizing this game is, all the time there was a different name If I had realised, maybe I would have checked Taylor's discography :D
May 4, 20205 yr Author 1. Ellie Goulding - River (and now y'all can appreciate the full board of single covers below *.*) _8IoUoH3-EE And at #1 we have the forever ICONIC River hitting the 1 spot again. This looked to finally be the year Mariah would finally grab the #1 with the best xmas track ever but Alexa Goulding said NO and swooped in at the last min to snatch it away *.* as much as I wanted Mariah to be #1 this is one of my fave charts ever and the reaction on here was iconic, I stan the absolute randomness of this being the last #1 of the decade. It spent two weeks top 10 and 5 top 40 and it'll be interesting to see how Alexa promotes this over the next few years x The song itself, it's nice but not one of her best (from her 2019 material, Flux & Do You Remember are by far the best and sixteen issa fab bop) I wasn't expecting as many people to get this as y'all did but then it being a number one and quite recognisably Ellie probs did help! My absolute fave tho is the people that got this right and then guessed the theme of the game to be that there was no number 1 singles :kink: Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, West, Coi, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, Riser, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Mango - Zara Larsson MrAndrewMan - Madonna No Answer: everyone else
