Sucks for some of those, bringing the variety. Deandria woud have got high points from me!

Maybe old men. Will be Fab to find out.

I think someone just had a heart attack.

Would be in my top ten for sure, I wasn't aware of the original so always loved this and remember hearing it a lot when I was young. She suited it really well. Two long running No.1s for Cher in the 90s!

Ok left it with my first confirmation then and haven't tried a second time. Intriguing that there are no battles this time, so maybe we don't have to use THE killer song midway through if we get that far, part of me wonders if that prevented Kelly Clarkson potentially winning last time.

I also already confirmed before. Would a second confirmation override the timestamp?

Confirmed on the form that was there too. Lmao if I end up with my third choice as I haven't even started to think how I would play them.

Interesting that it's confirm one choice from each category as I'm sure 5 or 6 people will be after a few artists I can think of as their first choice. Choose your backups very wisely I guess. Until I read that I was about to put down three options from the same category!

Oh nice, good start to the season! Thanks for running Nine, fantastic quiz to kick off and well done to Chris on a joint victory!

Yeah, such a memorable song, I particularly enjoy the verses, lovely melody and chords. Forgot to comment on George & Elton but am not that passionate about it, a good vocal performance and decent cover.

Voted! It picked up for me a bit towards the end, a couple of very memorable entries in here for sure. Mine definitely just blended in sonically, I think I always play it too straight down the line with Nuggets and send the kind of commercial radio indie sound I like rather than something that jumps out of a pack.

That is a wonderful and passionate version of It's All Coming Back To Me Now. Bit of an insult to see it out before Mad, which gets my vote again.

Staying with P!nk, I like Catch You a lot!

Numb/Encore

Get Up (Rattle) is the one that was last for me too, very annoying track for me. Need You (100%) is quality, 2013 was such an interesting year for songs that sound quite underground house getting to No.1.

Something that isn't from 2025 at No.1 I actually prefer Die On This Hill, The Visitor and Pure but this is a nice song too and Sienna so fully deserves a No.1 single.

Love the three tacked on songs that were not No.1s on an album called Only No.1s. But glad the actually decent Saviour’s Day gets its rightful spot.

Nice set! I wonder if it will be available to stream - what songs currently aren’t on streaming that are among all these tracks? A little pricey but it’s nice item for a Christmas wishlist.

I got Massive because they're credited as that on Now 19, which I finally acquired recently.

K is one I had no idea at all about, I can't remember anything about that album apart from the singles. I had to put a stab in the dark but tbf as random as it may look, it wasn't completely baseless as the story is adapted from traditional Korean Shamanism! You can see the straws I'm clutching at here.

I never really liked We Can't Stop much, but Miley has always been extremely hit and miss for my taste, even with her big hits. Agree the other is stronger and more on the 'hit' side of my taste.

For me, I'm not so surprised about the £££ signs in their eyes, but moreso if AI music takes off even more with major label backing that the genuine artists that they are trying to develop for the future will have even fewer opportunties to chart, in a chart landscape already overrun with old songs and hard to break into. And I would imagine AI 'artists' are also more likely to be one-hit wonders, who also can't make them any money from touring etc... so it's all short-term gain. Also, the artists already on their labels are bound to become disgruntled if priority is given to AI acts, plus the aforementioned environmental concerns of a label building up an AI artist, AI music videos etc will likely reflect badly on these companies, who are constantly pressed by shareholders etc on how they are being sustainable. Also, the lack of musical creativity and originality coming from the major labels who exploit this will hurt in the future as things become even more homogenised... it all feels like a recipe for potential disaster to me. And sad that this is how labels feel they need to thrive, but maybe a sad reality also in this day and age, as 2026 has been so dry, the industry feels stuck so profits must be dropping.

Voted! Love my top three in particular <3 Decent semi with some strong contenders and gems likely to be overlooked alike, however Semi 2 looks like more of a bloodbath to me.
