Having just discovered Bronski Beat's 'Smalltown Boy' from Channel 4's It's A Sin and finding out it peaked at number 3, I wish I knew of it before I voted. :lol: Has it appeared yet?

It's still to come!

'Smalltown Boy' is a bit of a gay anthem so I can imagine it doing well on Buzzjack!
Lost my first song , didnt expect it to be Superstar !!

Abba - Money Money Money

Peter Cetera - Glory Of Love

Nik Kershaw - The Riddle

Madness - My Girl

The Saturdays - All Fired Up

Timbaland with Katy Perry - If We Ever Meet Again

Vengaboys - Kiss (When The Sun Don't Shine)

 

 

Another song I couldn't include in my vote so I'm glad someone has given it 21 points. It was one of five top 10 hits for Nik from 1984/85. We also have some great songs by Abba and Madness and Peter Cetera's first solo single after leaving Chicago.

America - A Horse With No Name

Drake featuring Rihanna - Too Good

Five Star - System Addict

Howard Jones - New Song

Michael Jackson - The Way You Make Me Feel

Jennifer Lopez - I'm Gonna Be Alright (Track Masters Remix featuring Nas)

NSYNC - Bye Bye Bye

Shakira - Underneath Your Clothes

The Vapors - Turning Japanese

Richard X vs Liberty X - Being Nobody

 

 

It's only right that I should follow Nik Kershaw with Howard Jones. His debut single was one of his six top 10 hits from 1983 to 1985. We've already had Michael Jackson with his sister and he still has a further six songs left with the first appearing here. A Horse With No Name was America's signature song while Turning Japanese was an excellent one hit wonder.

The Cars - My Best Friend's Girl

Dina Carroll - Don't Be A Stranger

David Guetta featuring Flo Rida and Nicki Minaj - Where Them Girls At

Michael Jackson - Bad

Brian McFadden and Delta Goodrem - Almost Here

Stevie Wonder - Part-Time Lover

 

 

From 1978, My Best Friend's Girl was The Cars' first top 40 hit. Michael Jackson quickly loses another song while Stevie Wonder loses the second of his two.

So, what's the cut-off? 24 points? :P

Backstreet Boys - Everybody (Backstreet's Back)

Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot

Ciara featuring Missy Elliott - 1,2 Step

Culture Club - Time (Clock Of The Heart)

Ellie Goulding - How Long Will I Love You

Keane - Is It Any Wonder?

Billie - Honey To The Bee

Pussycat Dolls featuring Snoop Dog - Buttons

Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman

Timbaland presents One Republic - Apologize

Malcolm Vaughan - My Special Angel

Wheatus - A Little Respect

Jackie Wilson - I Get The Sweetest Feeling

 

 

This was taken from Keane's second album and gave them their third top 5 hit. I was wrong when I said the Bobby Vee song was the oldest. I didn't spot My Special Angel by Malcolm Vaughan which is from November 1957. It was one of four top 5 singles for the Welsh singer.

That's 5 of mine gone already, Honey To The Bee being the first that someone else voted for too!
I didn't vote for Wheatus but I prefer their version to Erasure's version of A Little Respect. :P
I thought that said Erasure’s ‘A Little Respect’ then and was gonna get upset at missing it off my list. Also Everybody & Bye Bye Bye are probably my two favourite boyband songs of all time, but didn’t expect them to do well.

I voted for it - still to come!

I don't even know that Wheatus song but I am instinctively cheering at Wheatus being eliminated for their other crime.

 

Aw at Keane missing out. And Big Shaq ofc.

Is It Any Wonder? is an underrated gem. :(

 

I'm shocked Wheatus had another hit. I always thought they were a one-hit-wonder.

I had only lost a few of my votes until that last post but then lose three in one! Apologize, Man's Not Hot and Is It Any Wonder all falling there :(

Michael Jackson - Remember The Time/Come Together

Michael Jackson - She's Out Of My Life

KSI featuring Craig David and Digital Farm Animals - Really Love

Mabel - Don't Call Me Up

Portugal. The Man - Feel It Still

Python Lee Jackson - In A Broken Dream

REM - The Great Beyond

Thompson Twins - Doctor! Doctor!

 

 

This was one of five top 10 hits from 1983/84 for the group named after characters in The Adventures Of Tintin. In A Broken Dream was recorded in 1968 and featured vocals from a then unknown Rod Stewart. It was a hit after being re-released in 1972. Michael Jackson loses two more of his singles.

Yeah I do remember 'Remember The Time' but I don't remember 'She's Out Of My Life'.
