+5 drop dead And then a massive gap to everything else +4 Homewrecker +3 Daisies +2 Rein Me In +1 Fever Dream -1 Beauty & a Beat -2 White Keys -3 Babydoll -4 Lush Life -5 Dracula

I'm backing 2x wins for none of the above

+5 American Girls +4 Homewrecker +3 iloveit... +2 Rein Me In +1 Fever Dream -1 Man I Need -2 White Keys -3 Babydoll -4 Lush Life -5 Dracula The bottom 7 in this list could all easily be -5s if there was some half-decent music around

+5 American Girls +4 Homewrecker +3 iloveit... +2 RMI +1 Man I Need -1 Fever Dream -2 White Keys -3 Lush Life -4 Babydoll -5 Dracula Dreadful top 10

Even Buzzjack almost unanimously agreeing on something is very rare! (I say almost unanimous. The song makes me want to smash whatever is playing it!)

This is one of the most inexplicable things ever to befall Buzzjack 😅

Big Thief are a first time add? Begs the question why now? They're many albums in!

I must be listening to a different Dracula to everyone else 🤮

Thank you King Rollo, fantastic job! A strong top 5 - Robyn or Enola Gay would have been my preferences to win but all would have been worthy. Interesting to see how much changed (including my faves tanking) between the first round and the final.

Thought In The End had a chance of winning based on glancing at the scores as they came in... but 5th place feels more about right to me. I preferred Greenday's earlier stuff - was (and still am) shocked that they won the #5 poll - but I guess this shows it was no fluke. (The American Idiot fans have stuck around since the #5 poll but the OK Computer fans have disappeared since the #4 poll..?)

Ain't Nobody is a classic of its genre - not a genre I'm hugely into so didn't score it very high personally, but still appreciate its excellence. Agree with others who don't have Yesterday anywhere near their favorite Beatles songs. It's never really done anything for me

I like the surprise of not remembering left! Though the two I think are favourites to win are both still in (Robyn and LP)

Try is my favourite Pink song and pleased to see it so high here. Just Can't Get Enough is also excellent though not quite in the same league as Enjoy The Silence. I didn't really know the Eurythmics song until this rate but really enjoyed it so gave it decent points.

Agree with other commenters about the epicness of Smack My Bitch Up and Fat Of The Land in general. I remember it being just fully skipped and barely referred to on the Radio 1 top 40 show (they just say something like "at number 8 it's a new entry for the Prodigy and now at number 7 it's..." - very rare for the 90s when they had a much looser bar for censorship

My list of least favourite Muse songs correlates closely with their list of highest charting songs 😅. This is fine, but compared to most of the rest of Absolution, pretty mid. If only Stockholm Syndrome or Butterflies and Hurricanes had been the lead single... 😍

Heard that Bebe track for the first time today. #41 is at least 200 places too high. Reminds me of that absolute car crash Ella Henderson made of Children recently, or Ava Max made of Shakira. Please stop 😅!

In contrast to last night, 3 songs I'm very meh about falling here. Cruel Summer the best of them - the other two were among the weakest in the final imo

Three bangers in a row gone there, a lot of my favourites starting to fall before we've reached halfway 😢

For the next several songs I'll be able to think nothing other than "this finished above Yes and Karma Police??!" Some moreso than others. Judas a lot!

RMI very much in the Ordinary and Man I Need vein for me, i.e. inexplicably massive for a song that sits somewhere between mildly pleasant, innocuous, and lift music. This seems to be the muscial formula that generates mega-hits in the streaming era. Doesn't bode well for any new Bohemian Rhapsodies.

Well after barely losing any songs in my top 25 until now, that's my +50 and +49 gone in succession 😭 Everything off OK Computer is obviously incredible, but I'm amazed No Surprises is rated so much more favourably on here than Karma Police. I always had Karma Police as the most accessible / generally iconic of all the singles. As for Yes... not surprised by all the +50s, I know a lot of people who knew it from time of release consider it a bit of a masterpiece. Didn't expect it to get super high here, assuming that voters hearing it for the first time would score it mid, but was surprised how many actually scored it really low.

Never knew Stealers Wheel were Scottish! First song to drop out that I'm quite sad about losing.

Amazed how low BTS have entered, I was kind of assuming multiple songs in the Spotify top 10 on day 1
