11 (38) 266 Final Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For?

"What You Waiting For?" is a song written by Gwen Stefani and Linda Perry for Stefani's 2004 debut solo album Love. Angel. Music. Baby. The song is the album's opening track, and was released as its first single. "What You Waiting For?" details Stefani's lack of inspiration, fear of producing the album, as well as her reaction to pressures exhorted by her record label. The song is influenced by electro and new wave music, and introduces Stefani's four back-up dancers, the Harajuku Girls, who had a major input into the album's production.

"What You Waiting For?" was released as the album's lead single; according to Stefani, as an "explanation for doing the record". The single sold well, reached the top twenty in many countries, and topped the charts in both Argentina and Australia. It was certified gold in the United States (despite only making USA#47), and was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 47th Grammy Awards.

 

 

... So Buzzjack does have two male vocal Indie-Rock records in the Top 10!!!!!

Well done Gwen :D

 

The Sweet Escape is better though

... So Buzzjack does have two male vocal Indie-Rock records in the Top 10!!!!!

Shocking. It makes the top 10 look almost credible. :lol: I'm not a fan of them myself, in fact I'm not keen on those, the Madonna song or the Nelly song.

10 (4) 268 Final Christina Aguilera – Beautiful

"Beautiful" is a song written and produced by Linda Perry and recorded by American pop singer Christina Aguilera for her second studio album, Stripped (2002). It is a cello-driven, classically-flavored ballad in which its protagonist deals with hurtful statements made against her that cause her to feel insecure and have low self-esteem. She does not let other people's negativity get the best of her. It was released as the album's second single in late 2002 and reached number one in several countries including the UK, Australia, Canada, Ireland & New Zealand. It also reached USA#2. The song earned her a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

 

I hope the top 9 looks like this:

 

09| Spice Girls - Viva Forever

08| Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

07| Madonna - Frozen

06| Kylie - Can't Get You Out of My Head

05| Nelly Furtado - Say It Right

04| Shakira - Whenever Wherever

03| Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor

9 (18) 276 Final Madonna - Frozen

 

http://www.gregsgrooves.com/imagesm-r/madonna_frozen.jpg

 

"Frozen" is a pop song by American singer Madonna from her 1998 album Ray of Light, written and produced by Madonna, Patrick Leonard and William Orbit. The song was released as a single in February 1998.

"Frozen" topped the charts in several countries worldwide. It was held off the top spot in the United States by K-Ci and JoJo's "All My Life".

In the UK, despite sporadically high sales of singles such as "You'll See" (a #5 hit in 1995) and "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" (a #3 success), "Frozen" was seen as a "big comeback" for Madonna, becoming her first single ever to debut at number-one. It was also her first UK chart-topper since "Vogue" in 1990. "Frozen" spent eleven weeks at #2 in the European Singles Chart.

 

 

'Frozen' is a great track but from that album, I prefer Ray of Light.

8 (41) 280 Final Spice Girls - Viva Forever

 

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/80/Viva_Forever.jpg

 

"Viva Forever" is a song by the Spice Girls on their second album, Spiceworld, released as a single almost two months after the departure of Ginger Spice, Geri Halliwell, in May 1998. It became their seventh number-one in the UK, and their first without Geri. "Viva Forever" is considered by music critics to be the group's best work artistically.

"Viva Forever" was poorly promoted, and its only real driving promotional force was the hype from Geri's departure. The song was released on July 20, 1998 selling 100,000 in the first three days and 277,000 copies in its first week. It stayed at number one for two weeks in the UK, spending nine weeks in the Top 40, thirteen weeks inside the Top 75; and went on to go platinum selling 623,000 copies.

It was very well received in Europe, garnering an extensive amount of airplay, peaking at number two in the Euro Hot 100. It also reached New Zealand #1 & Australia #2.
