They could well be... :o

 

Oh I deserve more than a 4 word reply :arrr: :P

12: Dannii Minogue - Touch Me Like That

Contrary to how this performed in the official chart, I thought this was a seriously great track from the Danster. At least miles better than the crap 'Perfection' which did much better. Baffling.

Oh I deserve more than a 4 word reply :arrr: :P

 

Here is a five word reply. :P

Dannii did better overall than Kylie? :o :o Blow me down with a feather and call me Brigitte :o

11: Kelly Clarkson - Never Again

Just before we get into the top 10, this was Kelly's comeback single after the mammoth Breakway era. This made #2 on my chart and briefly dipped into the lower part of the top 10 on the official one. Whilst it doesn't compare to any of Breakway's singles, I grew to love this and I was seriously addicted to it at one point. I also love the video where she's taunting the man, you can definitely relate to this if you've ever been screwed over by a lover. I was going to buy My December until I actually heard the album and disliked the majority of the tracks on it. Shame.

It's the weekend. Is Brigitte your weekend alias? :kink:

 

LOL omg you bum

 

Notice how I tested your intelligence there with the SIX word reply? You failed the intelligence test Simon. :(

 

Anyway, that's all for today folks. The top 10 will begin in July. ;)

Oh mann I was testing you to see if you'd notice my reply wasn't 6 words :ph34r:

So let's get into the top 10...

 

10: Britney Spears - Gimme More

I don't like this girl at all, but this was such a brilliant comeback single. What on earth is that music video all about though? 5p budget much. :lol:

9: Rihanna - Umbrella

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/1735491.JPG

 

 

As far as I can recall, this was the only single of the year to manage #1 on both my personal chart and the official chart. Love it or hate it, this is a classic that will stand up for years to come, and surprisingly despite being everywhere since it's release, I'm still not bored of it. The video is vile and cheap however.

I'm impressed with the Top 10 so far Waggy :o Infact, both of those were in my Top 10 of 2007 ^_^

8: Sophie Ellis-Bextor - If You Go

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/ELLISTRIPPRE.JPG

 

 

I charted this song shortly after the release of Trip The Light Fantastic as I was certain it would be the third single. Foolishly, it wasn't. I still maintain that this Xenomania produced pop masterpiece could have been the song to turn things around for her, it's a shame it went to waste.

7: Nelly Furtado - Say It Right

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/9853919.JPG

 

 

When I first heard this song on Loose back in the summer of 2006, it was an immediate standout and from that moment on became far and away my favourite song of hers. I was delighted to see it go on to become a hugely successful single for her. A mesmerising and groundbreaking track with an incredible hook, this never gets old.

6: All Saints - Chick Fit

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/3784412.JPG

 

 

I totally adored this, and the underrated Studio 1 album. Although sadly after the album flopped as hard as it did, the release of this single was never going to do much, especially after it was relegated to being a download only single. 'Chick Fit' was an edgy, golden pop nugget and deserved to do well.

5: Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Me And My Imagination

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/ELLISTRIPPRE.JPG

 

 

In hindsight, this appears a bit higher here than it should be. But this chart is compiled on a points system from how they performed in my personal chart so fair is fair. I think she could have chosen a better single from the album to release it off the back of, but regardless this is a nice catchy song about foreplay. I have started to get back into it again recently.

Big boooo at the ghastly MAMI appearing so high! -_- But otherwise very good. Yay for Dan! But wtf - Umbrella's vid was not cheap. :P

4: Natasha Bedingfield - Soulmate

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/88697111992.JPG

 

 

This is the highest song in the countdown not to reach #1 in my personal chart, it did reach #2 and had a very long run. This is a beautifully written ballad, very emotive and full of longing and desperation, and is stern proof of Natasha's brilliant talent. I was really glad this did so well for her, despite all the odds being stacked against her.

3: Gwen Stefani - The Sweet Escape

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/GWENPRECD.JPG

 

 

This anthemic retro-inspired gem had me hooked in from the moment I heard it on the album, and it went on to become easily her biggest single yet. This has suffered from horrendous overplay and the magic has worn off for me, so I'm avoiding hearing it for a couple of years. :P

2: Rihanna - Shut Up And Drive

 

http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/1746121.JPG

 

 

Unlike most, I much prefered this single to 'Umbrella'. This electro clash monster laden with innuendo and double meaning was pretty much the soundtrack to my holiday in the summer. Totally amazing.

1: Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Catch You

 

http://991.com/newGallery/Sophie-Ellis-Bextor-Catch-You-387034.jpg

 

 

This will probably come as no surprise to some, but Sophie's comeback single is my #1 single of 2007. I was eagerly anticipating her return for months and she didn't disappoint me. In fact, when I first got this song, I played it 156 times within the first day. :o 'Catch You' is extremely addictive with a classic, punchy chorus and essentially is 3 and a half minutes of making you feel as though your mind is a washing machine is on fast spin, not to mention it's a great song to blast out at full volume. 'Catch You' spent 10 weeks at #1 in my personal chart, and catapulted her back into the top 10 of the official chart after 3 years away. I also have to mention I had the pleasure of meeting this lady recently and she was honestly one of the loveliest people I have ever met, a totally down to earth woman, very bubbly, funny and charming and not to mention a total stunner in the flesh. Quite simply, the woman is perfect in every single way.
