Posted December 27, 20222 yr The hall of fame so far: Ultimate Number 1 : Madonna - Like A Prayer Ultimate Number 2 : A-ha - Take On Me Ultimate Number 3 : The Killers - Somebody Told Me Ultimate Number 4 : Radiohead - No Surprises The time has now come to decide what the forum's favourite single that peaked at number 5 is. Once again, in the first round, you vote for your top 30 number 5 singles. Please put them in order from 30 points for your favourite down to 1 point for your least favourite. The 100 singles with the most points will go through to two semi-finals of 50 songs each and the top 25 from each semi will go through to a final of 50 songs. Each voter's favourite number 5 from their first round vote will be given a wild card into the semi-finals even if it didn't receive enough points from other people to qualify so there could be more than 50 songs in each semi-final. Here is a link to the list of number 5 singles. There are 13 days for you to vote so plenty of time to look through this list to make sure you didn't forget any songs that don't immediately spring to mind. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=197172 Remember, your favourite song should be at the top of your list with your least favourite at the bottom. So if anyone starts their list with 1, I will assume that means 1st place, not 1 point. Closing date - Sunday 8th January
December 27, 20222 yr Ooh yay another one of these. As usual I'm not going to promise to vote in the first part but looking forward to seeing what makes it through at least.

December 27, 20222 yr Author I have already compiled my own list. I had to go down to number 178 on my all time top 1000 before I got to the first number 5 single. The next two were at 182 and 188 so it was close between my top 3. Only my top 13 were in that chart which is a lot less than what I had for the previous four polls. I've still come up with 30 great singles though and many good ones had to be left out. 30pts - The Korgis - Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime 29 - Tears For Fears - Sowing The Seeds Of Love 28 - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Joan Of Arc 27 - Pet Shop Boys - It's Alright 26 - Justin Hayward - Forever Autumn 25 - Tears For Fears - Pale Shelter 24 - A-ha - Hunting High And Low 23 - ABC - All Of My Heart 22 - Katy Perry - Chained To The Rhythm 21 - Kon Kan - I Beg Your Pardon 20 - Landscape - Einstein A Go-Go 19 - 10cc - Art For Art's Sake 18 - Snow Patrol - Run 17 - Blondie - Rapture 16 - Japan - Ghosts 15 - Joe Jackson - It's Different For Girls 14 - David Bowie - Fashion 13 - Neneh Cherry - Manchild 12 - Wings - With A Little Luck 11 - Martika - Toy Soldiers 10 - Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out) 9 - Hot Butter - Popcorn 8 - Heaven 17 - Come Live With Me 7 - Depeche Mode - It's No Good 6 - Marillion - Lavender 5 - Sky - Toccata 4 - Tight Fit - Fantasy Island 3 - The Monkees - Daydream Believer 2 - The Crystals - Da Doo Ron Ron 1 - The Tom Robinson Band - 2-4-6-8 Motorway
