2005 has been near-perfect so far.. so many of my fave songs in there :w00t:

 

Where was Razorlight - Somewhere Else though?! :cry:

 

And good to see Arctic Monkeys in there as well :dance:

Razorlight was close, but 2005 was a tough year :( I wish I could have had The Golden Touch as a number 1 too.. :(

 

And as for near perfect - thanks!! :w00t:

Second single from the Arctics and a superb choice! I wish they had released Mardy Bum next :(

As this my last backdated number 1, and I had never given The Feeling a number 1, I thought it was time that my first ever chart's #2 was made #1 the week before! I love the Feeling.

 

"You've got my heart in a headlock"

You and everyone else Matt :(

 

Tbf to them though, if The View From The Afternoon had been chart eligible, it would have knocked 'Crazy' off no.1! :o

You know, you could well be right! Red Lights could have done it too I reckon, or A Certain Romance. So many good Arctics songs!

I reckon it should have been:

I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor

Sun Goes Down

Mardy Bum

A Certain Romance

 

^_^

I agree, that would have given them 4 Number 1s!

We're going into the beginning of my chart now :w00t: Will Young was my second ever #1 ^_^

 

I loved 'Sorry', CBR and The Feeling too :wub: Infact, that's ALL of 2006 so far :lol:

 

EDIT: Except t'Arctics who made like #14 in my chart, and Editors who made it into the Top 2500, nearly.
