January 16, 20214 yr Author Sailing was a no.1 single, Mark. It returned to the chart and got to no.3 after being used as the theme tune to a BBC documentary series about the Ark Royal. I'll add one point to your scores for your bottom 11 songs.

January 18, 20214 yr Author Voting is now closed 37 people voted which is a great response. Last year, 29 people voted in the first round of the no.2 poll and the year before, 25 voted in the first round of the no.1 poll. This evening, I will start a countdown of the singles that didn't make it through to the semi-finals.
January 18, 20214 yr Author +14 Berlin - Take My Breath Away +13 Riva Featuring Dannii Minogue - Who Do You Love Now (Stringer) +12 O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tei +11 Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance +10 Anastacia - Left Outside Alone +09 Youssou N'Dour featuring Neneh Cherry - 7 Seconds +08 Jurgen Vries featuring CMC - The Opera Song (Brave New World) +07 Everything but the Girl - Missing +06 Macklemore & Ryan Lewis feat. Ray Dalton - Can't Hold Us +05 Bon Jovi - It's My Life +04 Ian Van Dahl - Castles In The Sky +03 Robert Miles featuring Maria Nayler - One & One +02 Rihanna - S&M +01 Rihanna - Disturbia Take My Breath Away was a no.1 single, Jack. It returned at no.3 a few years later. I'll add one point to your bottom 13 songs.
January 18, 20214 yr Author 1 point Barry Biggs - Sideshow Eiffel 65 - Move Your Body Milli Vanilli - Girl You Know It's True Paul McCartney and Wings - Band On The Run Oasis - Songbird The Rolling Stones - Miss You/Faraway Eyes WyPc_5FPfX4 I think Band On The Run is my favourite Wings song. It was on my shortlist but didn't make my top 30. Also here, from 1978, we have Miss You, the final top 5 single for the Rolling Stones. Oasis have two songs this time and the first one bows out early on. Sideshow was Barry Biggs' only top 20 hit. I don't think I've heard it since the 1970s but I still remember how the chorus goes. That's the test of a good song.
January 18, 20214 yr Sorry I didn't submit in time, I tried cutting the list down the other day and it proved tougher than I was anticipating so I was going to come back to it, just didn't quite squeeze the right moment in to do so. But will vote in the next round and follow along with the results - 'Songbird' my favourite of that lot!
January 18, 20214 yr Author 2 points Lene Lovich - Lucky Number Megan Thee Stallion - Savage Siouxsie and the Banshees - Dear Prudence KnIJOO__jVo This classic from the new wave era was Lene Lovich's only top 10 single. Dear Prudence is often cited as one of the best cover versions of a Beatles song. Savage is one of the songs from 2020 that made their way in.
January 18, 20214 yr Author 3 points Boyzone - Key To My Life Dean Friedman - Lucky Stars Sly Fox - Let's Go All The Way Carly Rae Jepsen - I Really Like You PyMnIip-9fY Lucky Stars from 1978 is a duet but Denise Marsa didn't get a credit. It was often the case at that time that a singer on a record would not be credited on the cover. We also have Boyzone's second single and a one hit wonder for Sly Fox.
January 18, 20214 yr Author 4 points Victoria Beckham - This Groove/Let Your Head Go Destiny's Child - Emotion The Grid - Swamp Thing Delta Goodrem - Born To Try Enrique Iglesias - Do You Know (The Ping Pong Song) Alison Moyet - Is This Love? The Script - Superheroes FFvvLuomw0Y I was trying to remember who was involved with The Grid. I knew it was someone from the 80s. On checking, I see it's David Ball from Soft Cell. This was one of six top 40 hits for the duo. Elsewhere, we also have Delta Goodrem's debut single and Alison Moyet's fourth solo top 10 hit.
January 19, 20214 yr A few great songs out already - Carly Rae Jepsen - I Really Like You, Lene Lovich - Lucky Number and Siouxsie and the Banshees - Dear Prudence are (very different) classics but they just missed my votes. Very surprised I'm the only person to vote for Born to try - I thought Delta was pretty loved on Buzzjack
January 19, 20214 yr How was I the only person to vote for 'I Really Like You'?? I thought Buzzjack had a few Carly fans :huh: Edited January 19, 20214 yr by Mangø
