ARIANA GRANDE - NO TEARS LEFT TO CRY
[This Rate Avg. 9.01]
[Rate Winning Avg. 10.05]




Highest Scores: Juliannnial, alohomora & MrAndrewMan [11] + Ultra's Version, NickF1, Chapman, ...ready for it, Dexton, blacksquare, AaronTM, Klumzee, Nina West, Tafty, Jade, JosephStyles, LMLou, HausofArgento, Jay & Eduardo [10]
Lowest Scores: Tombo [-01] + Feel the Fever [05]

Do you wanna know what's truly gutting about ARIANA GRANDE - NO TEARS LEFT TO CRY falling out in 4th place? In order to win, that -1 from Tombo only needed to be a 5 or more! 4.5 would have put it at a tie with the current winner, but would've lost due to "only" having 3 11's. This song turned 3 years old very recently and 3 years later, no matter how many times I hear it, it still sounds as fresh as it did the first time I ever heard it. It's an incredibly special and unique song. Unlucky to have been released the same week that 'One Kiss' had started to take off on airplay and streaming, this unfortunately spent a couple of weeks at #2 and never managed to overtake OK. What an absolutely beautiful and stunning song. MAGICAL.

Shocked at Ariana 4th! Thought that would easily be #1 after All Saints went out! :o
I didn’t even know some of the songs could be so actively hated wow! Routing for a DOMO win just because I hosted that rate so it’s on me :cheer:

P!NK - WHO KNEW
[This Rate Avg. 9.03]
[Rate Winning Avg. 10.086]




Highest Scores: Dexton, AaronTM & Viper* [11] + George.keh, Ultra's Version, NickF1, Dobbo, Nina West, Juliannnial, Tafty, JosephStyles, Jay & Eduardo [10]
Lowest Scores: LMLou & HausofArgento [06] + Tombo [07]

P!NK - WHO KNEW is next at number 3! This song seems largely forgotten about by the general public and that's a massive shame becuase it's an absolute BEAUT. Thankfully though, none of y'all forgot about it and have scored it high enough to place it as high as it is here. This was always a highlight from the 'I'm Not Dead' album and it's absolutely one of the highest points of P!nk's long, colourful and illustrious career. The song was a big chart hit at the time, peaking at number 2, 15 years ago. I *think* it celebrated it's anniversary very recently! A beautiful song that deserves all the recognition it can get!
Oh I didn't realise that 'no tears left to cry' had a -01 :nocheer: well yeah that wasn't going to be winning then, booo! What a stunning song.

BRITNEY vs ROBYN








WHO REIGNS SUPREME?










IS IT A TIE?

















'EVERYTIME' vs 'DANCING ON MY OWN'














002

ROBYN - DANCING ON MY OWN
[This Rate Avg. 9.17]
[Rate Winning Avg. 10.1]




Highest Scores: Chapman, blacksquare, AaronTM, Feel the Fever, X leww X, Klumzee, Nina West & dandy* [11] + SevenSeize, Chez Wombat, Juliannnial, Tafty, Riser, HausofArgento, Jay, Eduardo & Viper* [10]
Lowest Scores: JosephStyles [04] + LMLou [05.5]

There we have it ROBYN - DANCING ON MY OWN is the runner up! Rather surprisingly I would say. I probably would have pegged this down as the winner with All Saints 2nd! But what an incredible song. Heartbreak on a dancefloor ANTHEM. "Wanna dance in the club? Sure. But make sure you get in your feels and cry your eyes out at the same time" is what Robyn probably said when she created this, quite frankly, masterpiece. The tour videos of her singing this a couple of years ago on the 'Honey' tour is absolutely incredible. The crowd just singing every lyric back to her! What a moment you want as an artist. Amazing stuff. We shall not speak of that other incarnation which is disgustingly more popular! V O M I T.

BRITNEY SPEARS - EVERYTIME
[This Rate Avg. 9.19]
[Rate Winning Avg. 9.87]




Highest Scores: NickF1, ...ready for it, SevenSeize, Tafty, Jade, JosephStyles, LMLou, Jay & Eduardo [11] + George.keh, Nina West, Tombo & Calum [10]
Lowest Scores: Dexton & Chez Wombat [06] + dandy* [06.5]

BRITNEY SPEARS - EVERYTIME IS OFFICIALLY THE WINNER OF THE RATE WINNERS OF 2020! My favourite ballad of all time and my favourite Britney song ever. Absolutely gorgeous. So haunting, delicate and raw. An absolute timeless masterpiece. Her vocals are so tender and that piano melody is... *GOOSEBUMPS*. I'm so, SO happy to see it won this rate. I always get nervous about 'Everytime' in these things coz usually it gets overshadowed by one song or another LMAO. But lately I think it's been smashing these things and rightfully so. So beautiful and just incredible. Amazing.

Thank you to the 31 of you who rated and took part! This was so much fun to collate and I thought it was interesting to see these winners actually put against one another in a big rate. :wub:

 

Thank you to everyone who commented in the results too! It's been a blast :heart:

Oh wow, I was under the impression that 'Everytime' was slightly declining in popularity due to people rallying against it in a recent 00s forum poll, but clearly it still particularly smashes in this format. One of my two 11 picks (alongside 'Pure Shores') so I'm happy with that winner and pleasantly surprised <3

I should have rated in this, I would have made P!nk win probably. Oop ~

 

I appreciate 'Everytime' as a well-written song but it's not really a song I ever want to actually hear xx

:kink:

Everytime is my least fave of that top 5 but it's still a good song. Not one I really go back to though.

 

Very good result for Who Knew.

 

Thanks for running this Jonjo, was really interesting to follow with so many Buzzfaves in one same rate.

I wouldn't have given a -1 to 'Pure Shores' xo

 

You’d have given it -2 xo

'Everytime' is a great winner, especially considering the other massively well-loved songs that it beat! I would've predicted a Robyn and Rihanna top 2. 'Who Knew' really exceeded my expectations too!

 

As much as I love 'Midnight Sky' and 'Sweet Melody', I'm glad they didn't overperform due to recency bias, but low top 10 is still respectable for both. 'Pure Shores' deserved better but I'm glad the -1 only pushed it to #7, that's not too bad.

 

Great idea for a rate. Thanks for hosting, Jonjo!

 

The best song winning, omg! :wub: Fast approaching 18 years of existence, but Everytime never gets old for me. Stunning!

 

Dancing on My Own a very worthy runner up, what a beauty. I suppose I'll let Joseph off for that score of 4 because it benefited Everytime... :thinking:

 

Who Knew is a really special song to me. I associate it with quite a difficult time of my life, but thankfully that never spoiled the song for me... whenever I listen to it it just makes me think about how I overcame that moment (sorry for being vague, it's personal). I have so much :heart: for Who Knew... I think it's Pink's best, a close run thing with Just Like a Pill.

 

Ouch at that -1 for no tears left to cry! :o It's incredible, glad it at least wasn't hindered from making the Top 5.

 

Thanks for hosting this Jonjo, very interesting set of results and nice to focus on so many incredible songs!

Everytime is such a beautiful song. I was rooting for Sweet Melody to hit the top spot here and I am a little shocked that Everytime won as I thought something more upbeat would but as I said, it is a beautiful song and I gave it a 10 so yeah well done to Britney.
