Oh yeah I'd have easily guessed Bon Jovi for that, they've had loads!

Apols, don't know why I forgot to include Bob Marley. I've added him now (at the bottom), if anyone wants to edit their votes to include him, just click on Show Vote Options and it will let you vote again.

I feel like I'm getting deja vu from yesterday lol

Related to the recent thread about the biggest acts never to have had a UK number one single, who would you consider this to be? I've taken all the (arguably) most relevant suggestions mentioned in the thread. Vote for who you think are the most popular and culturally relevant acts from the list and who the general public would be surprised to find out that they haven't had a number one. I'd say vote for up to three artists.

The charts are a measure of what's currently popular, people need to deal with the fact that at some points that might be a lot of older songs. And anyway why 3 years? How would they arbitrarily decide on a threshold?

Well this thread quickly degenerated I guess you can blame it on me!

Agreed, Selena isn't even in the same league as Avril, at least not in the UK. Lana possibly though.

I might do a poll of the artists mentioned to see who people definitively put at the top of this list.

Anne will fade slowly though so she'll still be there for a few weeks. The new Tove Lo is good but not amazing IMO. Thanks DaTilt! Thanks Sergej!

You're such a melt!

Oh no... things will never be the same again

And it's also a crime that 'Can't Catch Me Now' in turn charted higher than Taylor's own 'Carolina' but there we go

Nothing massively grabbed me this week but I suppose I'll go for Taylor. I was a bit underwhelmed by the new Alex Warren though it is starting to grow. B*Witched was also better than I expected tbh.

Yeah I completely agree, I personally love Bananarama but they have definitely not had the same cultural impact as many other bands mentioned in this thread. That said, it's a shame something like 'Cruel Summer' or 'Love In The First Degree' never managed to bag them a #1.

Oh sorry I was misreading the sales that Joseph posted! Just realised they're listed in order of sales, I was thinking they were listed in chronological order!

How has Niall turned things around from 14k last era to nearly double that this time round?! I didn't think his new stuff felt that well received!

Yeah I still think Taylor will get it this week. And even if she drops the following week, hopefully something from Olivia Rodrigo's album has enough traction to challenge Sam & Olivia - maybe the Robert Smith collab? #reinreinmeinin

Sup Jordan! 1. Zara Larsson – Midnight Sun [36-x-16-8-6-10-1] Oh wow did NOT see that coming what happened to make it do a complete 180?! 2. Sienna Spiro – The Visitor [25-7-2] Well she's not a very frequent visitor to my chart lol. She does have a nice voice but I just don't get the hype for her I'm afraid 3. Olivia Rodrigo – Drop Dead [16-3] 4. Noah Kahan – The Great Divide [12-2-1-4] 5. Bruno Mars – Risk It All [17-2-5] 6. Sombr – Homewrecker [2-1-5-6] 7. Alex Warren – Fever Dream [15-13-7] Ooh this going top 10 is a very pleasant surprise! Pretty sure this is my favourite song of the year so far 8. Dara – Bangaranga Just about as crazy as a song you'd expect to win Eurovision though I must admit I do prefer Sweden's entry! 9. Harry Styles – American Girls [8-4-9] 11. Bebe Rexha & Faithless – New Religion [13-18-11] 13. Teddy Swims – Mr. Know It All [26-13] Next stop top 10? Fingers crossed! 15. Bruno Mars – I Just Might [18-9-5-14-15] 19. OneRepublic – Need Your Love [27-19] Still really enjoying this, hope it sticks around for a while on your chart! 26. Anotr & 54 Ultra – Talk To You [32-26] 28. Olivia Dean – Baby Steps 29. Noah Kahan – Porch Light 30. Gracie Abrams – Hit The Wall I honestly thought her new era would do nothing so I'm surprised this is doing well. It's not bad but it's really nothing special, just more of the same for her. I think she will need to progress her sound if she wants to sustain a chart career. 34. Felicia – My System Oh I had no idea when I wrote my earlier comment that you would chart this! Of the few of this year's Eurovision entries I've heard this is definitely my favourite 35. Sienna Spiro – Material Lover Did you really need three of her songs in your chart? 36. Taylor Swift – Elizabeth Taylor [29-x-33-36] 38. Myles Smith & Niall Horan – Drive Safe [18-30-x-38] 39. Harry Styles – Aperture [1-1-4-19-39] Excellent selection this month

It's alright. Nothing amazing but very Ellie. I'm not crazy about the title though - 'Feel Like Love' would have worked better given that's what she keeps repeating in the chorus!

I voted for Drum Machine even if no one else did because I HAVE TASTE.

Shake It Off, Blank Space, Is It Over Now, Cruel Summer from the context... but I had to think about it, and I agree I wish people would stop using them, it's honestly not that hard to type song names.

Yep both were A-listed: Calvin Harris (Love Regenerator) Hypnogogic (I Can't Wait) B-B-B-A-A-A Calvin Harris (Love Regenerator) x Steve Lacy Live Without Your Love B-A-A-A-A-A

There was a thread a few years ago which answered a lot of this. I remember Bon Jovi and Janet Jackson featuring on that too. You should probably also consider most top 40 hits without a number one - I seem to remember Depeche Mode held a similar record, not sure if it's that one. I'm pretty sure they've had more top 40 hits without a top 3 hit, let alone a #1. Maybe someone can find that original thread.

My data goes back to 'Let's Go' in 2012 (38 singles ago) and the answer to that is... never. I doubt he stalled on the C-list even with singles previous to that so probably never. In any case, I imagine 'Satisfy' will at least be B-listed.
