Voting is now closed so let's talk a rundown of the honourable top 10 hits of this year.

 

#10 – 38 – Robbie Williams with Pet Shop Boys – She's Madonna

{16}-31-53->3

 

Taken as the third single from Rudebox it saw Robbie team up with Pet Shop Boys although they were well past their peak by 2007 so could only help its chart success so much.

  • Author

#09 – 39 – Fall Out Boy – Thnks Fr Th Mmrs

41-{12}-14-19-23-26-35-36-47-57-56-69->12

 

Taken as the follow-up to #2 hit "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race" this didn't quite manage to follow it in the top 10 although it is far better remembered now.

  • Author

#08 – 45 – My Chemical Romance – I Don't Love You

66-43-{13}-28-30-38-46-66->8

 

One of four singles from their Black Parade album, the other three managed to make the top 10 however this fell short. It's still their lowest streamed of their BP singles now but clearly has a couple of fans here.

#07 – 50 – Jamie T – Sheila

22-36-51-68-75R(12)-46R(27)-34-{15}-21-24-37-47-65->13

 

Jamie T's first chart entry, then also his 4th as it had a re-release which pushed it into the top 20 - it ended up being a lot bigger than his sole top 10 hit Calm Down Dearest in the long run.

Jamie T robbed, best song there with an awesome video.

#06 – 51 – Killers – Read My Mind

62-29-{15}-21-26-27-30-43-49-61-63-63-75-63R(7)->14

 

The 3rd single to be taken from their 2nd record. When You Were Young made their record high peak of #2 then the following two reached #15, though this was bigger and better regarded than Bones.

#05 – 62 – Justin Timberlake – Lovestoned / I Think She Knows

63-21-19-12-{11}-15-17-23-29-36-44-55-61-65-71->15

 

Justin Timberlake was huge around this time, with his comeback single reaching #1 and the following two singles making the top 5. This suffered a bit from the era having been fairly drawn out already and had to settle for a #11 peak.

  • Author

#04 – 70 – Muse – Map Of The Problematique

{18}->1

 

Not one of Muse's most well known songs but surprisingly has quite a few fans here almost enough to contend for a medalist position.

#03 – 79 – Amy Winehouse – You Know I'm No Good  

40-{18}-21-24-31-42-42-44-56-68-69-37R(228)-71->13

 

Two of Amy Winehouse's songs to reach the medal podium, this was the 2nd single taken from Back To Black, it couldn't quite follow Rehab into the top 10. As with pretty much the whole album it remains very much remembered.

  • Author

#02 – 91 – Amy Winehouse – Tears Dry On Their Own  

67-37-24-{16}-17-22-25-32-26-35-36-43-47-56-61-59-68-54R(6)-66-27R(186)-47->21

 

In the end it of course had to be this that came out on top of the two Amy hits, taken as the 4th single off Back To Black it was helped up the chart by being a little more upbeat than the previous 2 singles, initially outperforming both although the title track (3rd single) did eventually reach the top 10 following her untimely death.

#01 – 91 – Peter Bjorn And John feat. Victoria Bergsman – Young Folks

35-53-56R(54)-38-33-{13}-14-13-20-30-42-56-68->13

 

However Amy couldn't quite reach #1 as on tiebreak 'Young Folks' is declared the winner here. Originally released in 2006 and barely scraping the top 40 it did a lot better the following year helped by featuring on the Homebase advert. It was the Swedish band's only hit however it remains very remembered and I'd say is a deserving winner here.

Great qualifiers there (minus Fall Out Boy) and good song coming out on top. 'Sheila' like 'Young Folks' I've come to appreciate more now rather than back then.

Not as big on the top 10 as a whole this time, but that's a great top 4!
