April 19, 20241 yr Author #984 My Chemical Romance - The Ghost of You Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2004 UK Chart: {27}-66->2 MCR's fanbase is not to be underestimated, they'll make quite a few showings here as they were one of the defining rock bands of the decade. Not familiar with this one but rather good as you'd expect for them. uCUpvTMis-Y #983 OneRepublic - Stop And Stare Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2007 UK Chart: 11-9-8-{4}-4-4-9-11-15-19-22-28-35-32-40-37-44-51-58-59-66-58-61->23 The second UK hit for OneRepublic and it remains a lot better than any of their hits from the past decade. Think it's been years since I've heard this last so a good revisit here. HtNS1afUOnE #982 Aphex Twin - Avril 14th Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2001 UK Chart: DNC Aphex Twin is mostly known for weird electronica however his biggest streaming hit is a piano ballad that clearly benefitted a fair bit from being friendly to mood playlists. A very pleasant listen anyhow. uxTdTaNIUxo #981 The Dandy Warhols - Bohemian Like You Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2000 UK Chart: {5}-10-16-25-36-41-46-52-55-63->10 One of the classic indie-pop hits of the early 00s, very fun song. CU3mc0yvRNk #980 JAY-Z - 03' Bonnie & Clyde Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2002 UK Chart: {2}-4-9-13-12-19-22-32-45-55-55-65->12 The song that introduced the power couple of Jay and Bey... hl5t3TyP8aY
April 19, 20241 yr Only know 'Follow Me' by Uncle Kracker which is a tune but nothing else. Should give this a spin. 'The Ghost of You' is decent MCR, 'Stop and Stare' is a great track from OneRepublic and then 'Bohemian Like You' is a certified classic.
April 19, 20241 yr 'Bohemian Like You' is my favourite of those revealed today *.* can't say I was expecting an Aphex Twin appearance in this countdown so that's already a fun swerve!
April 21, 20241 yr Author #979 The Kooks - Seaside Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC The opening track of their debut album which wasn't a single but must have got some viral traction at some point I guess. OgOwQvNzD-k #978 Kasabian - Fire Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2009 UK Chart: {3}-8-14-20-24-27-27-30-30-37-43-46-45-52-56-64-72-42R(21)-55-73->20 The biggest hit for Kasabian in the UK chart and also on streaming. agVpq_XXRmU #977 Coldplay - Violet Hill Spotify streams: 171m Year: 2008 UK Chart: {8}-8-10-11-14-12-11-21-32-36-36-42-56-53-64->15 A bit underrated for Coldplay as it got quickly overshadowed by the massive Viva La Vida however it has still done very well for itself here. IakDItZ7f7Q #976 My Chemical Romance - Dead! Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC The Black Parade was such a big album that we'll be getting multiple non-singles from it here. Firstly a song fit for a funeral... H48kOqqaWv0 #975 September - Cry for You Spotify streams: 172m (combined: album version and UK radio edit) Year: 2007 UK Chart: 9-{5}-5-6-7-10-9-9-15-15-19-19-20-24-26-27-29-35-44-50-62-61->22 The biggest hit for the Swedish singer being a big dance anthem. deYCFCAK-RE
April 21, 20241 yr Author #974 Wisin & Yandel - Ahora Es Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2008 UK Chart: DNC Second appearance for them, not too dissimilar to their first. Gk_asGADGaA #973 Wolfmother - Woman Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2006 UK Chart: {31}-48-65->3 Wasn't expecting them to have so many streams, they're an Australian rock band who have 2 appearances here. Seemingly weren't so big in the UK where this was their only top 40 hit. YsfInnEBYHw #972 Miike Snow - Animal Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2009 UK Chart: DNC Swedish indie group one member who would later form Galantis. niKT-kJfUz4 #971 Chris Brown - Say Goodbye Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2005 UK Chart: DNC Why? Thankfully not a UK hit anyway. GJ26gAc7BtU #970 Arctic Monkeys - Old Yellow Bricks Spotify streams: 172m Year: 2007 UK Chart: DNC Looks like there'll be a good few appearances from them here, including some album tracks. NgLWF2XJyKA
April 21, 20241 yr Some fantastic songs here plus a discovery for me - I did not know Miike Snow was related to Galantis! Christian of Miile Snow was 1/2 of Galantis until 2017. Thank you Google Also the deceiving named The Wombats aren’t Aussie :lol: Unless that was an animal pun on your behalf then I have been lampooned Those MCR, OR, Coldplay, Kasabian, and Wolfmother tracks are some of their finest. Hopefully it shows up later but Wolfmother’s Joker And The Thief is one of my all time favourite rock songs
April 22, 20241 yr Author #969 Crystal Castles - Vanished Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2008 UK Chart: DNC Former electronic duo who were big with indie fans for a few years, not too familiar with their stuff but this is sounding quite good. 9XViPhRnOiQ #968 My Chemical Romance - Disenchanted Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC Another MCR album track already! Good though. j_MlBCb9-m8 #967 Damien Rice - 9 Crimes Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: 55-{29}-48-59-67->5 Piano ballad from the 'Cannonball' singer (that song oddly isn't in the list however) cgqOSCgc8xc #966 Daniel Bedingfield - If You're Not The One Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2002 UK Chart: {1}-3-4-6-6-4-4-7-8-11-12-7-14-14-18-26-34-38-45-58-72->21 Daniel Bedingfield's biggest hit. We'll see from his sister later on. j6nevGNYTkA #965 Shakira - Las de la Intuición Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2005 UK Chart: DNC Quite groovy here. Although it's in Spanish so of course wasn't a UK hit. GKlpL4FhzUs
April 22, 20241 yr #968 My Chemical Romance - Disenchanted Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC Another MCR album track already! Good though. j_MlBCb9-m8This one got high daily streams last year in Indonesia. Glad it impacted the song to be here! :cheer:
April 22, 20241 yr 'Violet Hill', 'Dead!', 'Disenchanted' all good songs popping up there. '9 Crimes' is also quite nice and IYNTO only 966 :o for such a big hit for Daniel too. Shakira's is great and sounds like she's about to go into 'Don't Bother' which I guess isn't much a surprise with it coming out the next year! Edit : 'Cry For You' also a tune too of course.
April 22, 20241 yr Just catching up with this now - lots of nostalgia there, especially Animal, Let's Dance to Joy Division and Seaside (a favourite from when young me used to enjoy short songs!)
April 22, 20241 yr 'Violet Hill' is one of my favourite Coldplay songs :wub: and oh my at Crystal Castles showing up!
April 22, 20241 yr Author #964 Christina Aguilera - Hurt Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: 33-{11}-11-16-26-33-44-38-53-60-65-67R(2)-39R(43)-25R(99)-64->15 Christina's 2006 album gave her three big hits however it's this heartbreaking ballad that ends up the biggest. wwCykGDEp7M #963 Ricky Martin - Tu Recuerdo Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC An MTV unplugged session from Ricky Martin managed to give him another big hit in Spanish speaking countries. tn5b4-VbULs #962 Los Enanitos Verdes - Tu Carcel Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2004 UK Chart: DNC Another live recording anyone? tUYMOf93ofc #961 Skillet - Comatose Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC Rock band who never had any UK hits but were seemingly a big deal in America. fRXDr94_SKA #960 The Killers - Smile Like You Mean It Spotify streams: 173m Year: 2004 UK Chart: {11}-25-39-55-68-70R(5)->6 The Killers had some great stuff in their debut era this included; three more from this album to come one of which will end up very high as you'd expect. ZAErD8xzjCM
April 22, 20241 yr Yes Christina! Hurt remains stunning and feels deserving of a far better chart life than it had. Two weeks at #11 was so frustrating at the time.
April 22, 20241 yr 'Hurt' is absolutely gorgeous. If only it and 'Ain't No Other Man' swapped places <_<
April 22, 20241 yr Just catching up. Favourites from the last few batches are 'Let's Dance To Joy Division', 'Stop And Stare', 'Bohemian Like You', '03 Bonnie & Clyde', 'Seaside', 'Fire', 'Violet Hill, 'Old Yellow Bricks' and 'Smile Like You Mean It'. :wub:
April 22, 20241 yr Nice to see The Killers, though it is not one of their best songs overall from their debut era.
April 24, 20241 yr Author #959 Joan Sebastian - Más Allá Del Sol Spotify streams: 174m Year: 2006 UK Chart: DNC Mexican singer who had this hit quite late in his career - he died in 2015. th4rbjb504c #958 Eminem - Business Spotify streams: 174m Year: 2002 UK Chart: {6}-11-14-18-27-35-43-58-65->9 There'll be a lot of Eminem here; this is the first of six from his 2002 album The Eminem Show which was a late UK single impacting in July 2003. Assisted by Dr Dre here. NBWhcPpdomo #957 Miguel Bosé - Morena mía Spotify streams: 174m Year: 2001 UK Chart: DNC Spanish singer with his biggest hit. ljO63sL2CWc #956 Eric Prydz - Pjanoo Spotify streams: 174m [combined radio edit & extended mix] Year: 2008 UK Chart: {2}-2-6-11-20-24-32-44-56-56-57-66-69->13 A huge dance anthem of the late 00s cementing Eric Prydz as a legend of house music. j26esoayz2c #955 mor ve ötesi - Bir Derdim Var Spotify streams: 174m Year: 2004 UK Chart: DNC A bit unexpectedly we get a Turkish rock band make an appearance.
