My favourite Prince song is 'When Doves Cry' and the accompanying Purple Rain project is an all-time favourite, a great decade for him in general 💜 I really like the first two Tears for Fears albums also, not heard any others past that but do enjoy 'Sowing the Seeds of Love' so should probably give #3 a go

Haha quite possibly! Addison, Ela Minus and Gaga all killing it with multiple #1s here this year so far 💓 thank you for commenting 💖 *.* her new EP is shaping up to be special based on these pre-release songs! thank you for commenting 💖

Great to see 'hƐ>rtburn. x' debuting

Great to see Addison advancing to your top 20 💖 'Headphones On' is such a mood.

Ooh PinkPantheress’ ‘Illegal’ has re-entered the Spotify chart today *.*

Also starting with 'Joanne'!

Round 1: 24 (didn't get: 1987, The Drifters, The Rubettes, Seal) Round 2: 30 (didn't get: Glenn Tilbrook/Chris Difford, The Eagles) 3-in-10: 3 (Need You Tonight, Never Tear Us Apart, Suicide Blonde)

01. Addison Rae - Addison 02. Erika de Casier - Lifetime 03. PinkPantheress - Fancy That 04. Miley Cyrus - Something Beautiful 05. Ela Minus - DÍA 06. Vioflesh - Nostalgia 07. Model/Actriz - Pirouette 08. Oklou - choke enough 09. Lady Gaga - Mayhem 10. Snapped Ankles - Hard Times Furious Dancing

Nonna has passed away 💔 what an innings but how sad - hope Ari is doing okay!

Yeah I knew Addison would be in trouble when the more established acts sent in the big guns! Happy I got to showcase 4 of her songs at least 💖

Yes well done John for top marks yesterday! today's game: Round 1: 30 (didn't get: The Three Degrees, Barry Manilow) Round 2: 36 (didn't get: Thompson Twins) 3-in-10: 3 (Everybody (Backstreet's Back), I Want It That Way, Larger Than Life)

Voting for 'Gravel Pit' to win! That would be a surprising but welcome champion on BuzzJack.

My ABBA top three all come from the 80s - 'Lay All Your Love On Me', 'The Winner Takes It All' and 'One of Us', so still going strong!

oh my, loopable no fade coming for loopable

Soccer Aid performance!

Round 1: 30 (didn't get: 1975, Heaven 17, Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes) Round 2: 27 (didn't get: Eurythmics, Bobby Goldsboro, Sandie Shaw) 3-in-10: 3 (Strangers in the Night, Three Coins in the Fountain, Somethin' Stupid)

Yay congratulations Dan for a first time win in this contest *.* Alphaville got my silver medal so I'm delighted with that winner. Pleased with all the podium in fact. I did hope Helen Reddy could be a dark horse but that wasn't meant to be, glad she was at least top 10. 12th is way better than I was expecting for The Vapors after the SyncTube reaction so will take that! Thank you for a wonderful co-hosting job, Bré and Blobby! I loved the theme and flair throughout.

I checked out the accompanying Alphaville album Forever Young just last year as I wanted to discover more 80s synth-pop albums and it was recommended in a Digital Spy thread all about the topic. I did end up enjoying it and 'Sounds Like A Melody' was one of the songs I saved to my shuffle playlist, so nice pick Dan. Thanks for 5 points also!

Ooh okay my guess of 'Bré or Julian' coming through, I remembered you liking 'In The Year 2525 (Exordium & Terminus)' a lot so thought this would make sense as a Bré entry. Thank you for the points, sorry for not returning any, but this entry was 12th for me so not too far off - the eerie sound of their hit certainly extends to this one too.

Thank you for the points, Bjork! Oh my at The Blobbors. Is this a Blobby tidal wave of songs that can no longer win?

Ten points for 'News At Ten' feels correct *.* thanks AH Gold for the love 🩶

Thanks for introducing me to a Young MC song that hasn't been tainted by Mr Schue rapping

Thanks Dobbo for my second highest points so far! Back in the top 10 yay.

Thanks for the points Dandy! I've heard that Alphaville song before but totally forgot about Cappella sampling it until it was mentioned in the thread. It was so obvious upon relistening! Then the silver medal in those votes was the opposite situation - Young MC borrowing from 'Theme from Shaft'

Ha I clocked Chez right away on SyncTube! That cheeky denial xo Great song anyway. My suspicions for this one are either Bré or Julian also!
