April 1, 20232 yr Well I didn't jinx the winner at least but wow at how close the top 2 were! Thanks for running this again Rollo. A whole year for me to mull over maybe considering nominating #6 singles next year only for me to inevitably realise it's too much effort and wait until the voting rounds again. :basil:
April 1, 20232 yr I’ve made a huge longlist of 102 songs for the #6 rate to whittle down by next year!
April 1, 20232 yr Haha actually there’s a female solo singer of mine still to come with a #6 hit that I’ll almost certainly use as my wildcard :)
April 1, 20232 yr Author These were the top 20 songs in the first round vote: 1. 262 Fluorescent Adolescent 2. 250 Street Spirit (Fade Out) 3. 241 Around The World 4. 206 Run 5. 205 Blind Faith 5. 205 Levitating 7. 193 The Universal 8. 189 Out Of Space 9. 185 You Get What You Give 10. 182 Heart-Shaped Box 11. 179 Boulevard Of Broken Dreams 12. 177 Girls & Boys 12. 177 Midnight Sky 12. 177 Don't Let Go (Love) 15. 175 Daydream Believer 16. 166 Porcelain 17. 161 Who Knew 18. 156 Lullaby 19. 153 Sowing The Seeds Of Love 20. 150 Regulate So Fluorescent Adolescent, which only finished 15th in the final, won the first round and Street Spirit, which finished in 20th place, was the runner-up here. Our winner, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams, was just outside the top 10. Lullaby, 18th in the first round, didn't make the final, finishing 35th in its semi-final. The highest placed finalist not in the top 20 was Since U Been Gone, 8th in the final but only scoring 124 points in the first round.
April 1, 20232 yr Author This is the top 10 from the first semi-final: 1. 494 Around The World 2. 452 Try Again 3. 441 You Get What You Give 4. 436 Who Knew 5. 422 I'm Like A Bird 6. 402 Fluorescent Adolescent 7. 397 Blind Faith 8. 368 Babooshka 9. 356 Sexy! No No No... 10. 355 Bohemian Like You
April 1, 20232 yr Author And the top 10 from the second semi-final: 1. 478 Boulevard Of Broken Dreams 2. 435 Don't Let Go (Love) 3. 434 Out Of Space 4. 424 Run 5. 405 Midnight Sky 6. 401 Crying For No Reason 7. 382 Levitating 8. 371 Porcelain 9. 349 Little Lies 10. 345 Since U Been Gone
April 1, 20232 yr Confirms that the 2nd semi was more competitive as most seemed to think - provided 8 of the final Top 10
April 2, 20232 yr bit disappointed with the results, think Green Day are a terrible band and although I kinda like a couple of their ballads think they're over-rated and the #1 is certainly an over-rated song. But at least it wasn't Levitating or Miley. think any of the songs 2-9 are better than the Green Day one Babylon, run, who knew all would have been better winners
April 2, 20232 yr Very happy with that top two of Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Run as it matched my own (with the order swapped) :wub: Great that Katy B, Arctic Monkeys, Chase & Status and Radiohead all made it into the top 20 here too. Thanks for running this, can't wait for the number 6s next year!
April 2, 20232 yr I'm happy with the winner, I love 'Boulevard...' (or "I wore cologne" as I affectionately refer to it)
