48 [19] Swedish House Mafia vs Tinie Tempah - Miami 2 Ibiza = 183pts

47 [65] Enrique Iglesias (feat. Nicole Scherzinger) - Heartbeat = 188pts

38 [10] Tinie Tempah - Pass Out = 221pts

37 [21] Saturdays - Higher = 223pts

36 [34] Swedish House Mafia (feat. Pharrell) - One (Your Name) = 223pts

 

So these are all the ones that didn’t make it and some fair drops for a few songs here, most notably Pass Out was top 10 last year and a Semi-Finalists, this year however it drops 28 places and not even in the Qualification zone. Similarly Miama 2 Ibiza, Islands and Watercolour were all semi-finalists last year and this year take massive drops in their final years. Higher by the Saturdays also takes a hefty drop; in the auto-qualification zone last year but drops 16 places this year. Whilst some songs have flopped in their final years there are quite a number of new songs which have made quite an impact; Cold War was top 40 for most of the vote, however finishes in 43rd place. We also see big climbs for Spanish Sahara which makes into the top 50 as does Heartbeat and Gold Dust. Broken Heels, Oh No and Mine all notch up big climbs as well, the latter receiving 2 massive votes to kick off its final year. Whilst these songs all did well, it’s curtains for them as it’s the final time playing Record of the Decade… so what actually did well?

 

[Auto-Qualified]

 

35 [41] Far East Movement (feat. Cataracs & Dev) - Like A G6 = 226pts

34 [42] Katy Perry (feat. Snoop Dogg) - California Gurls = 227pts

33 [23] Mumford & Sons - The Cave = 229pts

32 [33] 3OH!3 (feat. Katy Perry) – Starstrukk = 230pts

31 [39] Florence + The Machine - Cosmic Love = 231pts

30 [NE] Example – Kickstarts = 234pts

29 [17] Ellie Goulding - Guns And Horses = 237pts

28 [30] Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) = 240pts

27 [NE] Take That - The Flood = 242pts

26 [35] Lady Antebellum - Need You Now = 243pts

25 [37] Rhianna - Rude Boy = 245pts

24 [27] Ellie Goulding - 245pts

23 [50] Florence + The Machine - You've Got The Love = 247pts

22 [13] Saturdays - Ego = 251pts

21 [28] David Guetta (feat. Rihanna) - Who's That Chick = 255pts

 

If this wasn’t 2010’s last year on Record of the Decade, then these songs would’ve all been in the auto-qualification for next year. Like A G6, Rude Boy and California Girls all move into this area whilst Take That and Example gained quite a lot of support this year; both not even picking up a nomination last year, however would’ve auto-qualified for next year’s tournament. Florence and the Machine also sees 2 big climb’s in this area too as You’ve got the Love surges 50-22 and Cosmic Love climbs 8 places to 31. However, whilst there are some new faces here, this area also sees Guns and Horses and Ego drop out of the Semi-Final area; the Saturdays seemingly taking a bit of a hit this year. Who’s that Chick claims the frustrating 21st place and is 5pts short of making it through to the semi-final in its last year. Whilst these songs would’ve auto-qualified, it is the end of the road for all of the songs which didn’t make it into the top 20… So what did make it through?

 

Semi-Finalists

 

20 [22] Hurts - Wonderful Life = 260pts

19 [24] Marina & The Diamonds - Hollywood = 261pts

18 [26] Mark Ronson & The Business Intl (feat. Q-Tip & MNDR) - Bang Bang Bang = 266pts

17 [29] Kelly Rowland (feat. David Guetta) - Commander = 282pts

16 [09] Owl City - Fireflies = 285pts

15 [16] Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie = 292pts

14 [25] Kelis - Acapella = 309pts

13 [06] Edward Maya (feat. Vika Jigulina) - Stereo Love = 310pts

12 [11] Tim Berg - Seek Bromance = 311pts

11 [12] Alicia Keys - Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart = 325pts

10 [31] Katy Perry - Firework = 333pts

09 [14] Katy B - Katy On A Mission = 347pts

08 [02] Katy Perry - Teenage Dream = 376pts

07 [05] Rihanna (feat. Drake) - What's My Name = 399pts

06 [07] Kylie Minogue - Get Outta My Way = 409pts

 

So there’s good news and bad news for Katy Perry; the good news is that Firework surges a massive 21 places back into the Sem-Final… the bad news is that Teenage Dream drops out of automatically going into the final by dropping from last years runner-up to 8th place. Both songs however do go through to the semi-final alongside a few new faces this year. Wonderful Life, Hollywood and Bang, Bang, Bang all climb from outside the top 20 to the semi-final in their last years. Joining them is Kelly Rowland’s Commander and Acapella by Kelis. All of these songs received very solid support throughout and are seemingly going to go out on a high.

 

The voting was a bit all over the place; Love the Way You Lie was safely top 5 for the first part of the vote, however struggled the more the vote went on and in the end finishes in 16th place. Similarly What’s My Name was gunning for the runner-up slot mid-vote, however dropped as other songs were claiming higher votes. Owl City drops out of the top 10, however remains a Sem-Finalist whilst Katy B climbs back into the top 10. Get Outta My Way was the highest placed Kylie song last year, however whilst it climbs a place and finishes 10pts short of the final is leap-frogged by another Kylie song…

 

Finalists

 

05 [08] Lady GaGa – Alejandro = 419pts

04 [03] Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) = 477pts

03 [15] Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers = 478pts

02 [04] Lady Gaga & Beyoncé - Telephone = 486pts

01 [01] Robyn - Dancing On My Own = 573pts

 

As I said before voting was a little all over the place and whilst Dancing on My Own finishes a near 100pts ahead of 2nd place, it was actually outside the top 5 for much of the week before it surged into the lead. Lady GaGa won Record of the Decade with Bad Romance last year; a song which is no longer in the running, however it seems she’s not going to give up the title easily as Telephone climbs 2 places to the runner-up slot and Alejandro climbs 3 to 5th place meaning she clocks up 2 songs in the final already.

 

Kylie has a strong year as All the Lovers surges into the top 5, leap-frogging Get Outta My Way to claim an automatic final position; the song lead for the beginning part of the week too. Rhianna rounds off the finalists with Only Girl having more sustained support than What’s My Names to stay in the top 5 for the week.

Glad to see my nominations for 2010 generally performing better! I never would've expected as high as top 30 for 'The Flood'.
ah no so close for Who's That Chick! At least Rihanna still has one auto-finalist even if it's not What's My Name which I prefer. Great to see Seek Bromance stable in its final year too. Shame Pendulum and SHM are free falling from last year's top 20 but it's not as if the 21-35 section is much better for this being 2010's final year. Kelis and Kelly Rowland are decent enough replacements and I don't dislike any of the other top 20 climbers either.
