Britney Spears - Toxic

Girls Aloud - Biology

Girls Aloud – Call The Shots

Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone

Kylie Minogue Can’t Get You Out Of My Head

These include Last Year's ROTD Top 5.

Does anyone want to predict the Top 5 for this year from those twelve songs remaining?

I think Lady GaGa might win, Nelly in 2nd. :o

 

Glad to see Beverley finished higher than 50th since she scraped through the play-offs. ^_^

My top 5 guess :o

 

05) Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head

04) Girls Aloud - Call The Shots

03) Nelly Furtado - Say It Right

02) Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love

01) Lady GaGa - Just Dance :o

Looks like GA will win the artist chart then

OK, now I'll post one at a time:

 

And first up a bit of a shock IMHO. The first time this Cathy Dennis penned track has failed to finish in the Top 3.

Hitting a new peak on this countdown "Biology" is a song by British all-female pop group Girls Aloud, written and produced by Brian Higgins and his production team Xenomania.

 

Released on 14 November 2005, the single was the second to be taken from Girls Aloud's third studio album Chemistry. "Biology" was commercially successful, returning Girls Aloud to the top five on the UK Singles Chart.

Hitting the ROTD top 10 for the first time is the song (& video) that started off the career of the most successful female artist & icon of the 21st Century so far. As it is from 1999 it will be too old to be included in next year's game.

 

The song was written and co-produced by Max Martin. "...Baby One More Time" was ranked at #25 on Rolling Stone & MTV's 100 Greatest Pop Songs of all time, and Blender reported it as #9 on their list of 'The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born' (1980 onwards). It was originally written for multi-platinum selling R&B group TLC; however, the song was submitted after completion of their third record, FanMail so could not be included; however it was then offered to a certain UK boyband 5ive, but was rejected by their then UK head of their record label BMG ...... Simon Cowell!

 

This song topped the charts of every chart in the world, going on to sell in excess of 13 million copies worldwide becoming the 12th Best selling single in the World of All-Time.
