16 hours ago16 hr I don't think I've lost anything so far. 'Turn Me On' is quite the bop though and was close to getting points from me. Back in the days when Guetta used to make actually good songs!

Another song from the same album is still to come. Dannii Minogue's 1991 cover of the Stacy Lattisaw song Jump To the Beat is the odd one out here as the other six songs are all from 1999-2003. Craig David loses the second of his two songs.
16 hours ago16 hr 'Bad Day' is the second loss from my votes (my bottom two out). I first heard it when I saw R.E.M. at Glastonbury in 2003, and couldn't believe how similar it sounded to 'It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)', but was pleased when it gave them another Top 10 hit.

15 hours ago15 hr Author 15 pointsAzzido Da Bass - Dooms Night (Remix)Eminem - FallPebbles - GirlfriendThe Pretenders - Talk Of The TownWe've now lost both of the Pretenders number 8s with 1980's Talk Of The Town dropping out. From 1988, Girlfriend was the only top 40 hit for Pebbles who has been married five times and is now known as Sister Perri. Dooms Night only got to number 46 on its first release but a remix by Timo Maas pushed it up to number 8. Eminem falls at this hurdle but has a second song to come.

15 hours ago15 hr I know Guetta's been using ghost producers for years, hadn't realised he was quite that far back though.Another two losses from my votes on 15 with 'Talk Of The Town' and 'Dooms Night', glad they both had other voters.
15 hours ago15 hr Author 16 pointsBryan Adams - Thought I'd Died And Gone To HeavenRick Astley - Take Me To Your HeartMichael Jackson and Paul McCartney - The Girl Is MineLuude and Mattafix - Big City LifeThought I'd Died And Gone To Heaven came out about four months after Bryan Adams' sixteen week stay at number 1 with (Everything I Do) I Do It For You. Michael Jackson makes his daily appearance this time with the first single to be taken from his huge selling album Thriller. So far he has scored 4, 8, 12 and 16 points so very neatly ordered. Take Me To Your Heart was the sixth of eight consecutive top 10 hits for Rick Astley.
14 hours ago14 hr Some of my ‘older’ favourites going out so far-Talk of the Town, I Need Love, ABC and also Hippychick, with its excellent Smiths ‘How Soon Is Now’ sample!

I've always had a soft spot for a rock ballad and Bryan Adams definitely knows how to write one!
