THIS YEAR OMG so incredibly strong, definitely one of the best ever years (was the year I got back into the charts/music properly after dipping out for a year or so). Cascada or The Feeling would have EASILY topped this had 'Who Knew' not been in the same year but it is what it is. If there was ever 5 +20's though then even RHCP and Madonna would be worthy too. Everything else here is at least a top 10 ranking worthy and dozens outside too. 95% of the music I loved and the 5% other I either didn't care for or disliked it!

I've never had much interest in the UK 'indie' of this time so this is in fact the first time I've listened to 'Is It Any Wonder?', 'You're All I Have', anything from The Feeling bar 1 prior play, anything from Kasabian before 'Fire', and probably 2 or 3 others. I'm glad I liked some of them (particularly 'Is It Any Wonder?' which made my top 30, and also 'Monster' which I'd only heard twice before, with no thanks to it having disappeared from Spotify here, and really enjoyed). I also feel like, without counting (so I could be wrong), this list had the most dance songs since maybe 2002, interestingly (and definitely the least reality TV content and Westlife & co. in a while). (For the record I'm considering 'You Got The Love' as the 2006 version which hasn't really impressed me when I've heard it; I love what I think is the 1991 version)

 

Wow that 'I Like The Way' and 'Candy Shop' made the top 200 with peaks of #57 and #65 within 2006! A new era begins. I'm annoyed that Eminem had to release 'When I'm Gone' in mid-December as it would be #70 of 2006 with its sales combined. 'Because Of You' (Kelly Clarkson) is also unlucky... and 'All Good Things (Come To An End)' being #120 and #115 of separate years, ouch.
