January 30, 20232 yr Well I'm glad Julian was wrong about Guetta being top 5! More power to those who are able to get any 'fun' out of that song but I just can't. It was a bad idea (taking one of the most unique and quirky dance classics of the 90s and replacing the lyrics with the most half-arsed generic party song lyrics imaginable), but I could almost forgive that if it didn't commit the much bigger sin of just sounding like garbage, the production is a total earsore to me. I pray I wake up soon and back in the world where this song was rightfully recorded, acknowledged as a bad idea (taste of the general public notwithstanding) and left to rot unreleased on a hard drive somewhere. x Happy for Bebe for the personal achievement ofc as much as her music is not for me in the slightest.
January 30, 20232 yr If you'd have described that song on paper I'd have thought it'd be a total car crash akin to his massacre of Better Off Alone but I really like it.
January 30, 20232 yr Same. I mean, notwithstanding the admittedly terrible lyrics and generic production, I find it a total earworm.
January 30, 20232 yr Author #06: Buzzjack’s rank of the 2022 #1s Adele Easy On Me 1st single from 30 Released: 15th October 2021 Label: Melted Stone Chart Statistics NE (28/10/2021) | [1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-28-38]-1-2-3-5-23-23-25-30-33-39-44-44-46-49-54-62-52-69-79-86-76-86-94-96-x RE (14/07/2022) | 84-x POINTS: 400 Highest: +14 [detonate] Lowest: 0 [dobbo, !!!] U3ASj1L6_sY
January 30, 20232 yr Author NGL im surprised this one got so high up the list, esp over i'm good & unholy because although both got criticisms on here they both seemed like quite popular singles on here, where as it feels like everyone complained about this going back to #1 in jan!
January 30, 20232 yr Author Anyways we have 5 songs left to countdown, song of the summer, song of the year, major taytay comeback and 2x huge and unexpeced dance bops! lets see which order they have been voted in! The Top 5 most popular #1s of 2022 as according to Buzzjack (in alphabetical order) Eliza Rose & Interplanetary Criminal - BOTA Harry Styles - As It Was Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill LF SYSTEM - Afraid To Feel Taylor Swift - Anti-Hero
January 30, 20232 yr Easy On Me was 4th last year so was always going to be in the mid to upper tier. That’s the last one I’m not keen on out anyway - find it pretty pedestrian and don’t like the lyrics much. Great Top 5 - the one I didn’t expect to get this far is BOTA but pleased it’s beaten Adele and Guetta.
January 30, 20232 yr Definitely the correct top 5! Unholy was a bit undercooked, but an interesting moment for Sam and a great moment of representation. I'm Good on the other hand...Each to their own and all, but I'm kinda shocked so many people like this non-ironically, everything about it is pure trashy laziness.
January 30, 20232 yr Not a fan of 'I'm Good (Blue)' at all. I only appreciate its existence for the amusing moment when the uncensored version was played on the chart :P 'Unholy' has potential and I'm here for darker sounding music in the chart but the execution is a bit messy overall. 'Easy On Me' became tiring quite quickly due to overplay unfortunately. That is a very good top 5 *.*
January 30, 20232 yr It was questionable that 'Easy On Me' returned to #1 in 2022 yes but the song is still great, I think it's held up better to overplay than her other 2 #1s.
January 30, 20232 yr I love I'm Good (Blue), it's just a fun pop song imo! And we haven't had that kind of unashamedly fun bop in the chart for a while - it's not to be taken seriously really. Hoping Anti Hero or Running Up That Hill wins here.
January 30, 20232 yr Hoping Anti Hero or Running Up That Hill wins here. Same! 'Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)' transcends the list really as such a classic and 'Anti-Hero' is my favourite of the #1s actually released in 2022 :wub:
January 31, 20232 yr RUTH to win of course! LF System is easily my favourite of those first released in 2022 and I adore that too but RUTH really stands above everything here without a shadow of a doubt.
January 31, 20232 yr Shame to see 'abcdefu' so low, though I did notice I seemed to be the only +14. It, 'Roses' and 'Escapism.' are my 3 favourite #1s of the last 4 years. No surprises in the top 5, but I feel like I could see any of the non-Kate ones being #5. I'll guess #1 Kate, #2 LF SYSTEM, #3 Taylor, #4 Eliza, #5 Harry.
January 31, 20232 yr the correct top 5, I actually don't think I like any song in the 6-15 section rooting for Anti-Hero, as that's the best of the "new" songs. Of course RUTH is a classic but rather a "new" song wins
January 31, 20232 yr Not sure anyone could argue with that Top 5 I certainly could. Only As It Was was in my personal top 5.
January 31, 20232 yr Author #05: Buzzjack’s rank of 2022 #1s Eliza Rose and Interplanetary Criminal B.O.T.A. (Baddest Of Them All) Non-album single Released: 15th June 2022 Label: Rosebud Recordings Chart Statistics NE (04/08/2022) | 93-45-10-2-2-1-1-3-3-4-4-11-15-19-21-27-27-33-47-65-78-88-x POINTS: 481 Highest: +14 [perrobueno, RabbitFurCoat, LiamSime, Rough_Edges] Lowest: +1 [JosephStyles] KtGFByAJRQQ
January 31, 20232 yr Author B.O.T.A. (Baddest Of Them All) by icon Eliza Rose & Interplanetary Criminal, what a bop! From a unknown BJSC entry to a #1 almost instantly, it had an astronomical rise to the top of the charts! And it was very popular on here in the rate, finishing respectably and comfortably in the top 5!
