I'm happy for Jade and Addison for being that prominent in this ranking. Congrats to Lady Gaga for the win. Good that Sabrina Carpenter is relatively low with her songs as I found her last album not very good. It was so similar to her previous album, but overall on a lower level and her voice becomes a bit annoying for me. "Busy Woman" was her last one I really liked. Thank you @Calum for creating all these great polls and presenting the Top 20.

Finally, some good results. I was really happy when reading the news this morning.

Great to see all the songs from Alice's great album in your chart. The first contender for my Top 20 albums of 2026.

So far Madison's album tracks haven'r catched me that much - I like the Alice Merton album much more. From your top 10 I really like "Home Videos", "Faker" and "I Just Might".

"Love Bug" is a nice song - thank you for recommending! And thankfully it is no cover version of this: https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/album/5GOGt6fpFc39ZhEdq3rdU0

Hope Ella can take the top spot here soon. Church has a great time at #1 ;). Voted!

U2

What a quality top 10 - 9 great songs + one from U2.

Umbrella is the logic winner for me - highly influential - perfect production - perfect vocals - one of the best R&B song of all time. My final stats: 1. Rihanna Feat. Jay-Z - Umbrella 10/10 2. Kaiser Chiefs - Ruby 10/10 3. MIKA - Grace Kelly 9/10 4. Timbaland; Keri Hilson; D.O.E. - The Way I Are 9/10 5. Beyoncé; Shakira - Beautiful Liar 8/10 6. Timbaland; Justin Timberlake; Nelly Furtado - Give It To Me 8/10 7. Robyn; Kleerup - With Every Heartbeat 7.5/10 8. Take That - Shine 7.5/10 9. Kanye West - Stronger 7/10 10. Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love 7/10 11. Sugababes - About You Now 5/10 12. Leona Lewis - A Moment Like This 5/10 13. Katie Melua; Eva Cassidy - What a Wonderful World 4/10 14. Sugababes; Girls Aloud - Walk This Way 3/10 15. McFly - Baby's Coming Back 3/10 16. Sean Kingston - Beautiful Girls 3/10 17. The Proclaimers; Andy Pipkin; Brian Potter - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) 0/10 18. Leon Jackson - When You Believe 0/10

The final season was not bad, but it was too much action and too less atmosphere for me. The other seasons builded up slower and so created more 80's atmosphere. With the army and the abyss that was a bit too much - would have enjoyed it more if the story line would be a bit less and therefore more humor like in the earlier seasons.

Leigh-Ann for me, eventhough this is not as good as the previous two singles.

Votings cast - so many good stuff - that was a difficult decision.

Ella Langley took over this week - "Choosin' Texas" has to be my most streamed song fo 2026 so far. This week was the refresher part 2 with another 14 new entries this week.

I don't know why this is not working today -Gooddelta's show worked without propblems and also the listenthrough of the EOY pop-contest worked fine, but today no chance - the vids are buffering and they don't go further to the next vid - I cannot put anyting in the chat and the chat is delayed. It is not my connection as other things work properly.

Update: It connects now but I cannot write anyting (it always shows connecting when writing and nothing happens) - at least I can listen to the videos

These are the ones I like most: 200. CASTLES IN THE SKY- Ian Van Dahl (354,300) 197. TOXIC- Britney Spears (355,800) 192. I TURN TO YOU- Melanie C (361,400) 190. FREESTYLER- Bomfunk MC’s (362,000) 189. HEY YA- Outkast (362,800) 184. HEY THERE DELILAH- Plain White T’s (368,600) 183. BREATHE- Blu Cantrell Featuring Sean Paul (368,700) 180. BEAUTIFUL LIAR- Shakira & Beyonce (371,900) 172. ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID- t.A.t.U (378,900) 168. DON’T STOP THE MUSIC- Rihanna (381,000) 162. THAT’S NOT MY NAME- Ting Tings (383,600) 159. MANEATER- Nelly Furtado (385,700) 155. DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT- Toploader (387,600) 153. CRAZY IN LOVE- Beyonce (391,400) 151. BRING ME TO LIFE- Evanescence (392,100)

Finally Church did it! Good increase for Sienna - hope she can gain further.

It is really hard to pick just 5 out of it: The Stranglers - Strange Little Girl The Cure - The Hanging Garden Toto Coelo - I Eat Cannibals Depeche Mode - Leave In Silence Carly Simon - Why Madness beaten by an inch.

Sveveral great new entries, particularly the ones from Megan Moroney and Michael Marcagi. "Wall Of Sound" did nothing for me sounding more like an interlude than a proper single. "Roommates" also did not catch me so far, but it may grow like "Mature" did (needed some time).

"Palaces" is really awesome. Wondering whether this may do something commercially - I believe it is catchy enough. Not too much overlapping with my current charts, but in my current 50 I have also "Church", "Internet Girl" and "Chains Of Love" + the new Fcukers single will enter this week.

Congrats @Scene for the win. Congrats @Tafty for the great organisation of the event. It was a nice bunch of songs including three, which made my EOY-Top 10 and a further one from my Top 20. I was a bit disappointed falling from 7 to 11 with the last two votes, but in general I am happy to be in the upper half. "Cuntissimo" was a song I overlooked a bit from Marina's album, where my favourites are "Butterfly" and " I <3 You".

+5 Sienna Spiro - Die On This Hill +4 Djo - End Of Beginning +3 Bruno Mars - I Just Might +2 Zara Larsson - Lush Life +1 Dave & Tems - Raindance -1 Olivia Dean - So Easy (To Fall In Love) -2 Taylor Swift - The Fate Of Ophelia -3 Sam Fender & Olivia Dean - Rein Me In -4 RAYE - Where Is My Husband -5 Olivia Dean - Man I Need

Hope Grace can win this - for my song I hope that it can do the 10. Thanks to everyone voting for Sigrid.

Move Your Feet is such a banger.
