My feelings exactly about Rina

The original is a noughties classic for me, and this doesn't add much to it.

So I've given this a listen and I'm not sold on it as a whole but there some definite moments - of the new songs, my highlights are 'Digital Fantasy' and 'I <3 You', both absolute bops Also, why is this in the Indie forum? She couldn't be more pop if she tried!

As a side note, I've just discovered her 4-track AR EP from 2023 - well worth checking out, especially for her take on 'Nothing On (But The Radio)', that unreleased Gaga song from 2010, and also charli xcx collab '2 Die 4'!

Hey Sergej! I'm afraid I don't know much from your top 10 this week. The HAIM song is OK but not their best. Tate's new song hasn't hit me yet but maybe I need to hear it a bit more. I'm shocked it entered the UK chart at #6 today though I'm enjoy Miley's new entry, 'Easy Lover' is probably the best song on the album so I'm happy it was chosen as a single just a shame she's underperforming with the era. Ava's new one is good too, a definite improvement on her last couple! But my biggest positive is seeing 'Undressed' by Sombr enter your chart - better late than never I guess! Easily one of my songs of the year

Hey Seltin! That Rosé song is great, should be a decent sized hit here. Benson's song is growing on me steadily, there is definitely still a chance for top 10 but I'm not making any promises! Thanks 🙂

This is now over a year old

What's with all the Backstreet Boys songs appearing? Did I miss something?

Yeah this is a bit nothingy really. Rita Bore-a.

*should have But yeah I agree it's the most instant of the three!

Nothing groundbreaking but this is a solid song, can't see past it smashing. It's hard to say for certain whether it would have been bigger than 'Azizam' if he'd gone with it as the lead single, but it's definitely what I'd have done in his shoes. I really like all three songs though, it's probably the most I've ever looked forward to an Ed Sheeran album

'Sapphire' sounds just as big a smash as 'Manchild', I don't understand why he didn't lead the era with that!

This and 'Sapphire' both sound huge. I'm gonna predict it will open at #2 but climb to #1.

Then you know what to do 😉

Oh there's no doubt it'll be a big hit, it's just what level of big that remains to be seen!

1 Enrique Iglesias feat. Ludacris & DJ Frank E - Tonight (I’m f***in’ You) (fave) 2 Charlie Puth feat. Kehlani - Done For Me 3 Elton John & Dua Lipa - Cold Heart (PNAU Remix) 4 Damiano David - The First Time 5 Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street 6 James Blake - The Wilhelm Scream

1 Pet Shop Boys - Domino Dancing (fave by a country mile, probably my favourite song that's likely to be entered in the whole competition ❤️) 2 The Saturdays - Work (Phil Tan Radio Mix) 3 A-ha - Hunting High and Low 4 WALK THE MOON - Tightrope 5 CHVRCHES - Final Girl 6 Fifth Harmony - The Life Ooft, just noticed quite a few of us have ranked Fifth Harmony at the bottom, not looking good for them!

1 Ellie Goulding - Love Me Like You Do (fave, can't beat a Max Martin) 2 Avril Lavigne - When You’re Gone 3 Addison Rae - Fame is a Gun 4 Christina Aguilera feat. Lil’ Kim - Can’t Hold Us Down 5 SASAMI feat. Clairo - In Love With a Memory 6 Mary J. Blige - I’m Goin’ Down

Nooooo Rina can't leave this early! I might have to start bribing people for votes In all honesty, I sent that song because I wanted to showcase her softer and more tender side. This is why I was hoping there'd be some sort of loose theme for each week, otherwise it's hard to know how to strategise. But if she makes it through to next week, I promise to send a banger!

Only just seen this, haven't visited the P!nk forum for a while. Am I too late to send my top 40?

Auto-eliminated, surely

No, apparently they cannot.

Oh if I knew that was the case I'd have sent a different song for judges' houses

I don't want to be in @Spiceboy's house, he'll bore us all with his Elton John snoozefest!
