February 24, 20214 yr Glad I wasn't the only voter for R.I.P (my first loss), Rita and Tinie work well together here. Other than that no losses, I thought 'Part Of Me' was one of Katy's weakest and 'Little Things' a bland nothing, if it wasn't for the Blondie cover I would say it was their worst.
February 24, 20214 yr I didn’t vote in this poll but absolutely love ‘Dance with me Tonight’ and ‘Part of Me’ and probably would have given both points. Monster’ was expecting higher up as well. No tears at the others being so low.
February 25, 20214 yr Author NO 181- 15 POINTS See You Again Wiz Khalifa Featuring Charlie Puth (Voter: Mack) No 1 for 2 weeks in April/May 2015- Goodbye to both acts then who we won’t be seeing again…. Me And My Broken Heart Rixton (Voter: Dot Branning) No 1 for 1 week in July 2014- Shane Richie’s son- that’s the most memorable thing about this lot…
February 25, 20214 yr Author NO 179- 17 POINTS This Ain't A Love Song Scouting For Girls (Voter: Dot Branning) No 1 for 2 weeks in April 2010- This is indeed goodbye… When We Collide Matt Cardle (Voter: Stonedragon) No 1 for 3 weeks in December 2010/ January 2011- Well at least it got some points!
February 25, 20214 yr A bunch of fairly bland songs overall. Never understood why See You Again was so huge. When We Collide is an inoffensive cover and This Ain't A Love Song is pleasant enough, but no great losses.
February 25, 20214 yr Dance With Me Tonight is the only song that's been revealed recently that I'm even close to liking, though a couple I have no recollection (Rixton) or don't recognise (Chris Brown), which TBF was quite common for 2016 onwards... Looking at my votes to see what might be the first of them to appear, there are a couple that might appear relatively soon but I'm hopeful the rest will have been picked by a few people.
February 25, 20214 yr That Rixton song was great at the time but hasn't really stood up over the years. Same with Scouting For Girls, although I do remember being really shocked when that went to number one!
February 25, 20214 yr Some better songs there, I don't dislike any of them but don't go back to them that much either.
February 25, 20214 yr It’s amazing that Rixton had a #1 but The Vamps never did. They just got lucky with that song.
February 25, 20214 yr I remember being shocked by both Rixton and SFG reaching #1. The less said about X Factor's use / interpretation of one of my favourite songs, the better!
February 25, 20214 yr Matt Cardle's is one of the better XF winning singles, he has a good voice and it was a relatively inspired song choice. Doesn't beat the Biffy version of course but it's fine in its own right. Scouting For Girls had some good songs from their first album but they went rapidly downhill after that, 'This Ain't A Love Song' was pretty naff and does not deserve to be their one #1 hit. Was very underwhelming to see it debuting higher than Plan B's 'She Said' at the time (although of course that wouldn't have been #1 regardless since it ended up peaking at #3). Lol at Rixton. To this day they are inseparable from Lawson in my memory.
February 25, 20214 yr I'd honestly forgotten I ranked Rixton so highly but yeah I did love that song back in 2014 so i'll stand by it. I'm a bit more surprised that 'This Ain't A Love Song' doesn't get any other love though, admittedly not the most remembered #1 hit but I seem to remember it been very popular at the time. I've also realised I haven't got my votes saved anywhere and neither has the PM I sent, so i'm sort of looking forward to been reminded what I actually voted for as well as what everyone else did. :lol:
February 25, 20214 yr Rixton this sampled Rob Thomas's 'Lonely No More' didn't it? 'See You Again' well people on here know my taste in music.
February 25, 20214 yr ‘See you Again’ is so mediocre and generic it’s untrue. At least we only put it at no.1 for 2 weeks but in the USA it was no.1 for 12 weeks. Both Wiz and Puth have done far better solo hits.

February 26, 20214 yr I've also realised I haven't got my votes saved anywhere and neither has the PM I sent, so i'm sort of looking forward to been reminded what I actually voted for as well as what everyone else did. :lol: Me too - all adds to the excitement. :lol:
February 26, 20214 yr I'm really surprised that only one of my votes has dropped out so far, there are definitely one or two others I wasn't expecting anyone else to give that many points to!
