This was already submitted in round 5!

Going by the previous definition that the 'Clarity' pre-singles don't count as singles, these are all options: Got My Number Blow It All Sweet Spot All I Do Is Cry Clarity Personal Hell Another One + Meet The Parents and Shinin' As well as every song on 'TURN OFF THE LIGHT' except 'There Will Be Blood', 'Everybody Dies' and 'Close Your Eyes'. Technically, possibly Charli's 'Click' by way of feature as well. My preference is definitely 'Sweet Spot' (if not obvious from the amount of times I've named it in this thread)! 2nd is 'Blow It All' and 3rd is 'All I Do Is Cry'.

Uh wow at 'Dreamlover' :o I think it literally got more supporters in her thread than it got voters in total?! I know I didn't vote it, but I was the only one who didn't have it high in their rank in her thread. Nice to see strong performances for Rachel/Gorillaz/Röyksopp/Tinashe, Röyksopp particularly impressive I think in a round of big songs ^_^ I thought Janet seemed to be doing disappointingly in the thread but that's not too bad.

^ Nice to see someone else's stats in this thread again ^_^ Wow at how many bottom ranks Gorillaz have had!

Interestingly strong correlation between my top 8 this round and my overall order :thinking: (except Rachel Stevens but she may as well not count since her and S Club 7 are 2 distinct acts mashed together). Gorillaz become the 9th artist to get a #1 rank from me (only Röyksopp have done it twice) and yes, The Weeknd's pattern still continues.

1. Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood 2. Rachel Stevens - Sweet Dreams My L.A. Ex 3. Snakehips feat. Tinashe & Chance The Rapper - All My Friends 4. Röyksopp feat. Susanne Sundfør - Running To The Sea 5. Kelly Clarkson - Because Of You 6. Janet Jackson - If 7. Tove Lo - Not On Drugs 8. Kim Petras - Malibu 9. Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe 10. Mariah Carey - Dreamlover 11. Hailee Steinfeld - Most Girls 12. Pixie Lott - Cry Me Out 13. Coldplay - Fix You 14. Maren Morris - The Bones 15. Greyson Chance - yours 16. The Weeknd - In Your Eyes Fairly clear divide between the 2 halves for me, but a very strong top half, especially the top 5-6 :wub:

If we're considering Christmas songs though, it has to be the super underrated 'Oh Santa!' *.*

This is one round where I'm well familiar with the main option (well, there is 'Sordid Affair' which I suppose could've suited the last round); 'Running To The Sea' is lovely ^_^ I've never heard 'Eple' and kept misreading it as 'Epie' the first few times it was mentioned so I'm surprised if it's their best known! According to Spotify it's their 2nd most played song though (after 'Do It Again', and 'Eple' is getting ~2.4x as many streams as it nowadays).

'Heart To Break' coming for the final I would personally choose 'Hillside Boys' for the other one, but in terms of what's most popular/best known I agree that 'Malibu' is the logical choice.

Yes!!! The magnum opus is here :cheeseblock:

'If' for sure, definitely essential to send at some point! I'd love to see 'Black Cat' (video mix) too but I assume it no longer has a chance, if it ever did :kink:

'All My Friends' is perfect!

WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE WOKE UP LATE :kink: I highly doubt it'll win the poll but at least it got to be an option!

I don't like 'In Your Eyes' so it sounds like a good candidate to continue my streak of ranking every Weeknd song either top 5 or bottom 2 :kink: (I know other people like it so don't let me dissuade you)

Interesting, didn't recall that. My favourite song from the album was 'One Mo' Gen' but I'm sure that's a very random opinion. My rank is: Honey Emotions Touch My Body Obsessed Anytime You Need a Friend It's Like That My All Dreamlover Without You Hero

Nice to see Kim and Tinashe not too low at least! Impressive for Kelly to win without even picking 'Already Gone', and it looks like the long-awaited return of Rachel Stevens has paid off compared to how S Club 7's album tracks have done. I'm surprised that Maren song was the one to strike a chord. Some synchronicity for Janet and Mariah both picking songs from their latest albums and landing towards the bottom. I think someone had mentioned that the downtempo round was one of the added ones, but I'm surprised they weren't part of the original plan as they feel like 2 of the most obvious themes! (as ballads had been done in the previous AF Idol and it's something that works for almost all of the artists regardless of if they have hits or not or many albums or none) Also I must say I'd been expecting a free choice round each time since round 7 :kink: My guess since rounds 1 and 4 were free choice was that 7 and 10 would be too (to be evenly spaced out and because it's probably hard to come up with a lot of different themes that could work).

Kim Petras gets her long-awaited first #1 rank B-) Tinashe possibly makes a charge towards 2nd place, and The Weeknd manages to continue his dichotomy once again.

1. Kim Petras - Broken 2. Tinashe - Ghetto Boy ^ great to have these in :heart: 3. The Weeknd - High For This 4. Röyksopp - You Don't Have A Clue 5. Gorillaz feat. Little Dragon - Empire Ants 6. Rachel Stevens - Nothing Good About This Goodbye 7. Kelly Clarkson - Cry 8. Mariah Carey feat. Ty Dolla $ign - The Distance 9. Hailee Steinfeld - Your Name Hurts 10. Tove Lo - Moments 11. Carly Rae Jepsen feat. Bleachers - Comeback 12. Janet Jackson - Shoulda Known Better 13. Pixie Lott - Ain't Got You 14. Greyson Chance - Waiting Outside The Lines 15. Coldplay - Daddy 16. Maren Morris feat. Vince Gill - Dear Hate

2010: (maxing this out since it's 2010's last stand + going for all songs that I don't think have been in the game in recent years, except 'Memories') Sleigh Bells - Crown On The Ground (I nominated 'Rill Rill' 2 years ago and 'Comeback Kid' last year so by tradition I'm now picking a 3rd one :kink:) Timbaland feat. Justin Timberlake - Carry Out Ke$ha feat. 3OH!3 - Blah Blah Blah Tinie Tempah feat. Labrinth - Frisky The Black Eyed Peas - Rock That Body David Guetta feat. Kid Cudi - Memories Skrillex - Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites (because this didn't chart, I'm assuming it'd go under 2010 by release date) Crystal Castles - Baptism 2011: Lady Gaga - Government Hooker Pitbull feat. T-Pain - Hey Baby (Drop It To The Floor) Modestep - Sunlight ^ I wrote down 'Government Hooker' then checked what I'd nominated last year and found I'd already pre-empted it :') I'll find a way to even out 2010's pack with the remaining years! Edit: just thought of 'Baptism' so I decided to drop 'Memories' for it! (not sure if you'd seen the post yet anyway)

Good shout, I didn't have that one in mind as a ballad/midtempo but you're right. My rank would be: 1. Homework 2. Broken (if it counts) =3. Slow It Down =3. All I Do Is Cry (if it counts) - I love all these 4 ^ 5. Another One 6. If U Think About Me... Which is not very helpful when much of it is opposite :kink: Lotti to be the tiebreaker?

Kind of disappointed to learn that she has a ballad/midtempo non-single, was thinking 'Woke Up Late' might get a chance by default :kink:

^ 'Slow It Down' is the most clear-cut choice I think, and a strong one to me! Hopefully other people like it? If 'Homework' has any other secret fans I think it would fairly count as a ballad/midtempo, but on further thought 'Broken' and especially 'All I Do Is Cry' may be a stretch. I can't think of any other options not mentioned.

Perfect decision! You have a 3rd guaranteed voter :kink:
