January 7, 20232 yr Hold Me Closer was so cute, I would have preferred more Britney vocals but I was buzzing to see her back in the charts :wub: Easy Lover is a great track, honestly Ellie's efforts this era have been fantastic. abcdefu is still dreadful :lol:
January 7, 20232 yr Author 25 Tiësto & Ava Max - The Motto | 297 points 2022 Chart Run • 28-28-27-11-12-10-05-06-11-11-16-31-40 | 13 wks 1_4ELAxKrDc I Remember it clear as day. When I heard this, it took a while to grow on me and reach it's peak. 8 weeks to be precise, since two weeks weren't included in my EOY for 2022. This was the first song where I got properly on board with Ava Max and to be honest it's continued with her latest era. It's amazing.
January 7, 20232 yr Author 24 Camila Cabello & Ed Sheeran - Bam Bam | 299 points 2022 Chart Run • 32-23-13-10-05-06-13-10-13-24-20-31-36-39 | 14 wks -8VfKZCOo_I Surprisingly, well for me anyway, this is Camilla's best song to date. Nothing came close before it or since then and I think it'll stay like that for a while. I haven't really enjoyed anything else she's released which is surprising because she was my favourite in Fifth Harmony. I do hope she can build on this though in the future. EDIT- Actually, shameless was quite good.
January 7, 20232 yr Author 23 P!nk - Irrelevant | 300 points 2022 Chart Run • 19-05-02-01-02-05-15-15-23-28-38-40 | 12 wks 54TqACn_9V8 When Irrelevant first released, I was so unbelievably beyond hyped. Unfortunately the flattery doesn't extend beyond there. Everything since, for me at least has been quite dire and it's unfortunate. I miss the days of U + UR hand amongst her oldies. Hopefully she continues releasing music though because it's not changed and I'm sure there will be more stuff that I enjoy Down the line.
January 7, 20232 yr Author 22 Black Eyed Peas, Shakira & David Guetta - Don't You Worry | 307 points 2022 Chart Run • 20-06-01-03-11-08-10-16-19-25-31-36 | 12 wks me19SUmWu2s Don't you worry unfortunately got a pretty bad rep when it released and all because it sounded like I Gotta Feeling. Absolutely rediculous if you ask me. It's such a feel good track and on its own it stands tall. I wish it had been a hit for The Black Eyed Peas although in saying that, I feel that using Shakira as Fergies stand in was a bit shady.
January 7, 20232 yr Author 21 Lauren Spencer-Smith - Fingers Crossed | 309 points 2022 Chart Run • 05-02-02-02-05-07-14-25-24-30-32-36-40 | 13 wks mzwg5Ldkt5Q This was a great debit track, was it even her debut? I'm actually not so sure. Unfortunately nothing since then has really stuck the same and she's never had the same success with any singles since this one.
January 12, 20232 yr Author 20 Nathan Dawe & Ella Henderson - 21 Reasons | 312 points 2022 Chart Run • 33-14-08-04-04-03-06-14-12-20-28-35-40 | 13 wks EU--U-1Gsl8 One of the ebst sample uses of the year imo. I really didn't like it at first because I'm not a fan of the original song that this samples but here we are, it's top 20 in the end.
January 12, 20232 yr Author 19 Years & Years and Galantis - Sweet Talker | 318 points 2022 Chart Run • 04-04-03-03-04-04-08-16-22-25-40 | 11 wks 0trBZ5rDlRU Sweet Talker is probably my second favourite years and years song after King (Obviously) although can we really say it's by years and years when this whole album was a solo project? Or am I wrong about that? I actually can't remember why I let this leave my chart so quickly after such a good run in the top 5. Looking back, it is impressive though.
January 12, 20232 yr Author 18 Grimes - Player Of Games | 322 points 2022 Chart Run • 01-02-05-05-05-11-18-24-24-33-36 | 11 wks ADHFwabVJec Player of games is one of those inexplicably amazing songs that doesn't have any particular amazing quality about it. I mean the production is nice but for this song, everything comes together as a whole to make it one of the best songs in Grimes discography and indeed, one of the what songs of last year for me.
January 12, 20232 yr Author 17 Foxes - Sky Love | 346 points 2022 Chart Run • 19-09-06-07-09-07-13-15-16-20-19-17-32-39 | 14 wks 4HJDKg5DjD4 I Honestly couldn't give a reason as to why this ended up being the highest Foxes song on my EOY but any foxes song deserves it from their latest album. I absolutely adore the direction they've gone in. Hopefully next album will be just as good but really I don't have any doubts.
January 12, 20232 yr Author 16 Ed Sheeran - Be Right Now | 358 points 2022 Chart Run • 04-03-06-19-11-15-14-14-14-13-12-10-12-14-25-37-39 | 17 wks mqjoCX4OU0w And there we have it, my favourite Ed Sheeran song from 'Equals' and probably in my top 2 ed Sheeran songs with castle on the hill. This one is the highlight on the album for me. I can understand why it's not a favourite for everyone but it easily could have been a single. Unfortunately that never happened.
January 12, 20232 yr Foxes! A blast from the past there. Not one I've heard music from in absolute ages. Haven't been reading since I last commented but a fan of 'The Motto', 'Bam Bam' & 'Sweet Talker' from what's on this page alone and I like 'Irrelevant' but not one I particularly go back to really!
January 13, 20232 yr Hurricanes, Head on Fire, Kiss Me, The Motto, Bam Bam and Be Right Now are my favourites since I last commented - they’re all great :wub: Look forward to seeing your top 15!
January 15, 20232 yr Be Right Now was one of the best songs on = if I remember correctly so good choice for top Ed song!
February 5, 20232 yr Oh James I hope you'll finish this! Just catching up again, I like 'Easy Lover', 'Drive', 'abcdefu', 'The Motto' and 'Fingers Crossed'!

It's just taken me a while to get back to it.
May 9, 20232 yr Author 11 • David Guetta, Becky Hill & Ella Henderson - Crazy What Love Can Do | 427 points 2022 Chart Run • 40-29-21-15-09-06-07-09-05-05-11-07-07-13-18-27 | 16 wks 8bzesUu_a4I Not my favourite from any of the three artists involved but it's not a terrible single either. The video is good though. It's definitely quite charming with a decent story too. - 12 • Shawn Mendes - When You're Gone | 415 points 2022 Chart Run • 27-18-09-01-01-01-01-06-07-13-10-17-24-26-38 | 15 wks tp4fUH2E8uc This is hands down Shawn's best ever song. The peak of his career and the flop that this became officially is downright bizarre. It's a catchy pop song that sounds like a #1 hit and yet it's become a song largely forgotten by the masses. It's a real shame. - 13 • Sigrid - It Gets Dark | 406 points 2022 Chart Run • 39-37-32-18-17-12-11-17-18-17-13-09-06-06-05-12-29-36-39 | 19 wks 4j7LGMc9ZGU I actually can't really remember this now because my EOY has taken so long to resume but it did very decent on my EOY at 13th and then to go on and have a 19 weeks run as well is superb. With only a four week stint in the top 10, this could be the most impressive run in my top 15. - 14 • Beyoncé - Break My Soul | 394 points 2022 Chart Run • 28-15-10-05-01-01-02-01-03-04-11-26-34-39 | 14 wks yjki-9Pthh0 This was hopefully to be Beyonce's massive return but aside from this song, her singles have underperformed and infant she's just released the third single from Renaissance to radio. It's mad when you think about how long this era has been and that's only just the third single to come now. What else is crazy is just how many covers and samples there have been overall on the chart. Insane!! - 15 • Rina Sawayama - This Hell | 391 points 2022 Chart Run • 40-30-10-05-05-03-08-09-06-08-07-11-18-23-30-36 | 15 wks ekauErew4Bs What can I say about this? It's a smashing song albeit one that I didn't really like at all until half way through the year. It just didn't click with me at all and then after this came all the books she released. Not even all bops either, there were a couple slower songs and her album which itself was a masterpiece. This era has forever cemented Rina in my conciousness and if there was one thing I could hope for now, it would be for Rina to represent us at Eurovision.
