September 4, 2024Sep 4 It's an obvious one that I've to give max points to Coldplay because they're THE music group. Though I haven't checked their early album tracks, I can confirm that we can sing along to lots of Coldplay songs. The Scientist, Yellow, Viva La Vida, Fix You, A Sky Full of Stars, Adventure of a Lifetime, Hymn For The Weekend, Up&Up, and Orphans are my favorite singles. Coloratura is an underrated gem! Such a shame that I haven't heard any of their album tracks being used on TikTok, unlike pop singers & bands. I guess 'true fans' still have that "Please don't let this become viral on TikTok" mindset. :lol: ‘Sparks’ from their first album is really popular on TikTok - it’s one of their most streamed songs overall now!
September 4, 2024Sep 4 Destinys Child i dont mind but was never into much of their material i do like coldplay, nice if they had made the top 10 and while number 11 is annoyingly close they still did very well.
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Destiny's Child are my favourite American group, so it's pleasing to see them this high up!
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Well, there goes the last of my big pointers just outside the top 10. I don’t think I will approve of the pop girl/boy band heavy top 10 but there you go. I voted for 3 of them apparently, I’ve no idea what they are :lol:

I voted for 3 of them apparently, I’ve no idea what they are :lol: Lol I don’t think there’ll be any boybands for your disapproval. There are 5 groups left who wrote and played their own music and of the other 5 it’s all girlies! (Well 1 of them has a couple of boys who didn’t seem do a whole lot.)
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Destiny’s Child and Coldplay both great, small declines for them. Trying to remember which 7 I’ve got left and who the other 3 are that I haven’t voted for 😂
September 5, 2024Sep 5 In my head I always think of Coldplay as being exceedingly bland, but then when I see a list of their songs I like more of them than I realise! I think 'Trouble' may be my favourite one :wub:
September 5, 2024Sep 5 The Writings On The Wall - All Killer - No Filler !! Ditto: one of the best girl group albums ever made. It was a game changer in so many ways. One thing Beyoncé has always done well is building an album around a concept - rather than just a collection of unrelated songs, and I feel this started on TWOTW. This was an album that changed my taste in music.
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Coldplay have certainly dropped off in the last 10 years or so as evident by the rate I ran for them a year ago now but they do still have the one or two decent tracks that crop up. Nice that I have 6 of my votes make top 10!
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Lol I don’t think there’ll be any boybands for your disapproval. There are 5 groups left who wrote and played their own music and of the other 5 it’s all girlies! (Well 1 of them has a couple of boys who didn’t seem do a whole lot.) Aha! That must be one of the ones I voted for :P
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Thinki I’ve guessed the top 10 now, interested to see who’s first to drop out Can you post who you think the top 10 are? (in spoiler tags)
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Here’s last time’s Top 20 with this time’s 11-20 crossed through: No 1- The Spice Girls= 352 points No 2- Queen – 329 points No 3- Girls Aloud – 319 points No 4- Abba- 316 points No 5- Sugababes- 313 points No 6- Little Mix – 311 points No 7- Destiny's Child- 233 points No 8- All Saints- 225 points No 9- Coldplay- 221 points No 10- Killers- 220 points No 11- Pet Shop Boys – 209 points No 12- Saturdays- 205 points No 13- Radiohead- 190 points No 14- Blondie- 187 points No 15- Beatles – 171 points No 16- Oasis- 170 points No 17- Arcade Fire- 162 points No 18- Pussycat Dolls- 152 points No 19- Take That- 150 points No 20- Steps- 143 points
September 5, 2024Sep 5 I'm delighted that last time's 11 and 15 have climbed into the top 10! I expect the top 2 will be the same as last time.

September 5, 2024Sep 5 I do like the Killers they have some great songs but for some reason I can't listen to a full album from them so they never quite rank as a favourite band for me.
September 5, 2024Sep 5 Congratulations spiceboy on voting for the whole Top 9! The Killers didn’t quite keep the standard up after their first couple of albums but they do have some more recent huge anthems like “Caution”. Really enjoyed seeing them a couple of months ago after a colleague sold her tickets because she wanted to watch the football. Favourites are probably “When You Were Young”, “All These Things That I’ve Done” and “Somebody Told Me”, with “Human”, “Mr Brightside” and “Read My Mind” not far off.
