Just an idea that came to mind. It may have been done before but a new updated edition never hurts. Vote for as many as you want.

 

*NB: I'm taking the first announced new #1 single per each year hence why for example 2014 is Timber rather than Happy as Happy was announced as #1 on the December 29th 2013 chart show. Same with 2019/2020 with Ariana Grande instead of Ava Max and Stormzy instead of Ellie Goulding. Think 2010 was the only other example of this.

The last 2 are probably my faves

Voted for my top 5 (RAYE, Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, Rihanna and MIKA) + Michelle McManus because obligatory x

 

Neat that we've had 3 years in a row where the first #1 of the year is also the artist's first #1!

Some great ones, especially Arctics and Noah

and this underrated classic by Rui da Silva

Voted for..

 

Aaliyah

Mika

Lady GaGa

Rihanna/Drake

Coldplay

Pitbull

Ellie Goulding

Shawn Mendes

Ariana Grande

Little Mix

and RAYE/070 Shake

 

I do like 'When The Sun Goes Down' and I guess 'Now You're Gone' to some degree too but they aren't quite in the same regard as the other ones for me personally. A few others here I also enjoy but not quite point worthy in this group as well.

Aaliyah, Arctics, Mika & Coldplay, all some way ahead of the rest here (Escapism I also recall being pretty good, but I've only heard it once or twice).

I enjoy the majority of them (to some extent) but I picked my top 5

 

Michelle McManus

Basshunter

Lady Gaga

Will.I.Am / Britney Spears

Ellie Goulding

 

Voted for my five favourites as well:

 

Rui Da Silva - Touch Me (feat. Cassandra) (2001)

Aaliyah - More Than A Woman (2002)

Arctic Monkeys - When The Sun Goes Down (2006)

Mika - Grace Kelly (2007)

RAYE - Escapism. (feat. 070 Shake) (2023)

Oh this is a good batch!! I voted for:

 

Michelle McManus - All This Time (2004)

Lady Gaga feat. Colby O'Donis - Just Dance (2009)

will.i.am feat. Britney Spears - Scream And Shout (2013)

Pitbull feat. Ke$ha - Timber (2014)

Lol that's quite impressive 0 out of 58.

I don't suppose even Steve himself would vote for his song though.
