  1. Bit disappointed with the lack of impact this has had on amazon and iTunes (album and song). :( It thought the same last week with Strictly, but but i thought maybe it’s the arrangement and song were more marmite, but this week they had a really good interview and performance so I just don’t know what it is? Usually songs go top 50 easily after Graham on iTunes.

     

    Either way I just think they need to get a second single on the radio ASAP.

  2. 27. Famous

    Average: 6.58

    High Scores: lotita, TS0301 (8), UV (9.5)

    Low Scores: jakewild (1) Jade (2)

     

    Rule one in things Buzzjack hates...Flop singles! And after a string of 3 consecutive top 40 singles (as well as Fancy and I Love It that didn't come too long before), Famous tragically didn't chart at all. But I'd say Sucker is still a high point in an otherwise pretty patchy album. Famous is a cute slice of bubblegum with a rather odd video to go with it and fully earned its 7.5 from me!

    nnnnn I'm a bit gutted about this one, it's one of the highlights from True Romance. I was shocked to find I was its only fan. It didn't get many really low scores, but yeah. I love the way the verses are constructed, they're really interesting and cool. [/britney]

    Poor Tinashe, still flopping on someone else's rate. Even though this song has some fans, it just wasn't enough against frankly a rather stacked group of amazing songs (Everything from 23 upwards has 7+ average). Anyway, this song is a bit crap.

  6. 03. Monster In Me

    Average: 9

    High Scores: Joe, UV, Jonjo, MrLoverboy, CardiB, Juliano, SamJudd, Calum(10) Doug (11)

    Lil Xan, what's good?!

     

    I'm never one for pure pop ballads usually, like ever, even with my favourite artists. I usually prefer Lana Del Rey kind of indie pop ballads, and go to pop girls for the pops, something about them usually don't feel as sincere or something. But I was genuinely in love with this the moment I heard it. The chorus, the "Monster in me, mmmMmmMMM" post chorus and most importantly the lyrics which seem to display a kind of torn/destructive relationship which feels quite raw and melancholic. I really think this is their best ballad ever and would have made a great winter single.

  7. 30. Girls (With Rita Ora, Cardi B etc.)

    Average: 5.02

    High Scores: JosephCarey, lotita (10)

    Low Scores: Liam (-1) Cqmerqn, jakewild (0)

     

    ANOTHER Joseph fav here, though this time I'm not sure this deserved to do quite as bad as it has done. I'd have personally put it at a generous 2 or 3 places higher. 'Girls' is a song that seemed to have been on Rita's shelf for a very long time before finally being released. It features Cardi, Charli and that screeching whale Bebe. It's a song where the 4 girls sing about getting drunk and kissing girls which didn't go down well with a lot of people. Though the lyrics are a little suss, I feel people may have done a bit too much with it. But at the end of the day, was the song really worth any drama? nah.

  8. 31. Moonlight (With Lil Xan)

    Average: 3.61

    High Scores: JosephCarey (11)

    Low Scores: Theo, SevenSeize, jakewild, Cqmerqn (0)

     

    ...Sorry Joseph. One of your 11s has finished in 31st and of 31 place. I mean the results of this rate are a mess from start to finish, but there we are. What can I say about 'Moonlight'....Hmmmm, imma pass on that one! I'll leave Joseph to hype this mumbletrash. x
