Deserved win for Coldplay.

Good to see Duffy finish above the horrendous Basshunter. Shame Pink didn’t.

I was hoping for better for Madonna, Mint Royale and Kings Of Leon although 'Sex On Fire' is still pretty overplayed so I understand it missing the top 5. Then again, so is 'Viva La Vida' but I can't begrudge it winning :P

 

'Closer' sneaking into the top 10, yess *.*

Classic number one, one of my fave concert moments was Pet Shop Boys covering it in a gig in a historic courtyard in barcelona not long after it was a hit.

 

I could grumble about Madonna, Katy, Ting Tings not making the top 10. So I will. Moan, grumble, moan. :P I like all the top 10 though even if I'd shift the order of the top 13 around.

Even without my biases, Viva la Vida was leaps and bounds ahead of everything this year, so nice to see that reflected here!
