1. Can't believe God's Plan beat One Dance

2 Ja-son-De-ru-lo

3. Always preferred Shape Of You to Castle On The Hill and his other songs it held to #2, though it's never been a huge fave of mine and I'm pleased Ed has one left.

4. Derulo again - that one gets played on Heart a lot

5. Another of mine out - awful name, yes Shine was robbed, but an infectious tune

Another few there that were close-ish to getting points from me ('One Dance', 'In My Head' and 'House Every Weekend'). Gotta love how we just lost both a 15 week #1 and a song that was only #1 for a single 5 day week :lol: (although of course it was still technically #1 for 7 days).

I don't mind House Every Weekend but Years & Years deserved #1!

I still find it completely unfathomable that One Dance is one of the longest running No 1s of all time! When you consider the (relatively) universal appeal of the other songs on that list, and I grudgingly include Shape Of You in that

In My Head is such a bop! The rest are horrible

'Want To Want Me' is decent, I especially like the "shits on the floor" lyric.

One Dance and Want To Want Me :wub:

Yeah I can't understand the appeal of 'One Dance' either (or Drake in general for that matter) but what do I know?

 

'In My Head' is head and shoulders ahead of everything else in that bunch, loved that first era of Derulo's :wub:

So far only Riser and AH Gold have lost their 30 pointer but another will leave today.....

Pleased that 'Heart Skips A Beat' is Olly's highest placing song!

 

I presumed that I had voted for 'Once' so it must have just missed out. That and 'One Dance' are my favourites to drop out since I last commented.

NO 114- 55 POINTS

 

 

Scream & Shout Will.i.am Featuring Britney Spears (Voters: JosephStyles- 2 points, Sid- 14 points, xajnipi- 1 point, Garyfeld- 8 points, Nick F1- 30 points)

 

No 1 for 2 weeks in January 2013- Becoming Will.i.am’s third consecutive No 1 in the UK, he also helped Britney get herself on the list of chart topping acts of the 2010’s- Nick F1 loses his 30 pointer though!

 

 

Roar Katy Perry (Voters: King Rollo- 10 points, AH Gold- 6 points, rio309- 5 points, AaronTM- 17 points. Mango- 17 points)

 

No 1 for 2 weeks in September 2013- Katy now has only one left in the rate now.

NO 111- 56 POINTS

 

 

Summer Calvin Harris (Voters: coi- 27 points, marcinjaro- 21 points, Jason- 8 points)

 

No 1 for 1 week in May 2014- Well it had to happen at some point and here’s Calvin Harris’ first loss of the rate- he has 7 left but he’s done very well to reach this point before losing anything!

 

 

Blurred Lines Robin Thicke Featuring T.I & Pharrell (Voters: Sid-17 points, rio309- 11 points, Garyfeld- 28 points)

 

No 1 for 5 weeks in June/ July 2013- Probably a record you couldn’t make now……Pharrell has three left

 

 

Hall Of Fame The Script Ft Will.i.am (Voters: xajnipi- 11 points, Donnahjaneymack- 16 points, Mango- 29 points)

 

No 1 for 2 weeks in September 2012- The Script’s sole UK No 1 bites the bullet and poor Will.i.am is also out of the rate.

 

Scream & Shout + Roar are both bops but both missed my votes! (the latter was quite close to making it, the former less so). Hall of Fame is just there & I hate the other 2 in that post :kink:

It's funny how I keep being surprised that I'm not in the list of voters when songs come out - just shows how hard it was to narrow it down to 30.

 

I really like Scream & Shout and Hall of Fame; the others I'm not fussed about.

'Hall Of Fame' :wub: I know it doesn't get much love on Buzzjack but that song gets me as soon as that piano intro starts playing. Funnily enough I actually played it this morning too!

Considering it was so big I'm not sure I could identify One Dance at all. Some ok songs come out recently that may have been in a top 50 of mine, quite like Roar and always had a soft spot for Blurred Lines, something I thought would get really annoying very quickly but never did.

Hall of Fame really felt like it was piggy-backing on the Olympics with the “do it for your country” lyric

Aww I lost another one. Summer is great but I'm happy to know there are still 7 Calvin singles left. :D

I'm too busy/lazy to check out all the pages of this thread, but I'm thinking I lost only 2 singles so far. :o

Surprised by Roar going out so early, deserved though as that's not one of her best in my opinion. Summer is the first of my top five to exit and I'm glad I gave it as many points as I did because my prediction that it wouldn't get too many from elsewhere was accurate in the end. The others are all sort of OK really, agreed with the idea made a few posts above as I tend to associate Hall of Fame with London 2012 now!

'Hall Of Fame' and 'Summer' are both abominations.
