57. Dorothy Moore - Misty Blue 42pts

 

Writer - Bob Montgomery

Top points - Leonardo 25, !!! 12, jez1982 4

 

Misty Blue was intended for Brenda Lee but she didn't like it so the first recording of the song was by Wilma Burgess in 1966. Dorothy Moore recorded her cover version in 1973 but it wasn't released until 1975 and was a chart hit the following year. She had two more top 40 singles after this one.

 

Just to say thanks for doing this. It’s much appreciated and very enjoyable to see and take part in.

56. Hot Chocolate - It Started With A Kiss 80pts

 

Writer - Errol Brown

Top points - DarrenJames 23, Mack 21, jez1982 16

 

This was Skaky1981's wild card but he didn't vote this time so it fails to get to 100 points. The tale of playground love that didn't endure into adulthood was the eleventh top 10 single for Hot Chocolate. It was a top 40 hit twice more, in 1993 and 1998.

I hadn't heard this before but I was close to giving it some points. I did find it quite infectious. Like Dorothy Moore, the Dutch duo Showtek followed it up with two more minor top 40 hits.

54. Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Joan Of Arc 112pts

 

Writer - Andy McCluskey

Top points - King Rollo 24, Liamski689 22, rio309 22

 

There's no official video on youtube, maybe they didn't film one, so here we have an interpretation of the song by Legs & Co that I don't remember seeing before. They're not in the TOTP studio, it seems to have been filmed in a separate studio, a lot of effort has been put in here. This was the first of two hit singles for OMD about Joan Of Arc. The second one reached number 4.

Worth noting however, that 'Bad' was anything but a minor hit, despite a #22 peak it was a bigger hit than 'Booyah', in terms of streaming and longevity! Of course it helped a lot that David Guetta got the lead billing for that.

From 2018, this is one of two songs from Bruno Mars' 24K Magic album in this semi-final. Has the other one qualified? This version is not the album track as Cardi B was added on for the single release. It wins a tie-break over Joan Of Arc by 12 votes to 10.

Thanks for the info. Like the Orchestral Manoeuvres, I'm a bit 'in the dark' with these recent dance acts.

 

Aww Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark are the first of my votes to drop out. Little Mix's album track also titled 'Joan of Arc' was my favourite from LM5 so there's something about that name :P

From the soundtrack to the 2016 DC Comics film 'Suicide Squad' this was the only top 10 single for the duo from Columbus, Ohio.
