I'm happy with that. Although it does mean that at least one of Years & Years and Jess Glynne won't win an award.

Probably. I could get bored of doing personal charts and discontinue them before though.

I wanted it to be King so badly :( Hello is a great song though, so no complaints there.

Ain't Got Far To Go is sounding really good! Don't Be So Hard On Yourself :wub: What an amazing song, still doesn't feel old. Hold My Hand is also great, great to hear it!

I was expecting Major Lazer, but Tame Impala are good, so I'm happy.

Poor Kylie having to enter to that thing :( James Bay definitely deserved the award, well done to him!

Hymn For The Weekend should see a good boost now.

I'm not surprised. But she definitely deserved it, although I wanted it to be Jess Glynne. I won't ever understand why Amy Winehouse was up though.

Coldplay kicking us off very well. Hopefully this pushes Hymn For The Weekend to a higher peak than Adventure Of A Lifetime.

#52: Thursday's Child (from Hours...) x-q7ca6t6Dc Year of release: 1999 UK Peak: #16 Chart Run: {16-36-46-x4-87-89} Scores: 9 (Dandy), 7 (Taylor Jago), 6 (popchartfreak, Severin, Joe., Dandy, Colm), 3 (Acidburn) Average: 6.125 Final score: 61.25 Originally written for the video game Omikron: The Nomad Soul; Thursday’s Child was touted as Bowie’s return to the Hunky Dory sound. Largely acoustic, and much more reflective than recent albums the initial impression was that finally Bowie had dropped all pretensions and released his most intimate album. Along with Black Tie White Noise, and inevitably Blackstar, ‘Hours...’ is easily Bowie’s most personal album. The title for Thursday’s Child was inspired by a book about Eartha Kitt but the song isn’t. Instead the song focuses on a middle-aged man’s reflections on life. It was during the recording of the ‘Hour...’ album that long time guitarist Reeves Gabrels decided it was time to move on. Gabrels had known Bowie since the late Never Let Me Down era and, as a huge fan of Alternative Rock, had felt it was his job to keep Bowie from becoming too dull or too cheesy. His last ‘victory’ was to talk Bowie out of collaborating with R&B girl group TLC just as they were about to have their thunder stolen by the upcoming Destiny’s Child. The backing vocals on Thursday’s Child were provided by Holly Palmer, who would later join Bowie’s touring group. And so two out of three songs from Hours... are out. To be fair though, this is a really good track. However, it just happens that Bowie wasn't actually born on a Thursday; the 8th of January 1947 was a Wednesday.

#53: Wild Is The Wind (from Station To Station) VbpMpRq6DV4 Year of release: 1981 UK Peak: #24 Chart Run: {59-28-25-27-24-24-28-29-32-48} (28/11/1981 - 30/01/1982) Scores: 10 (Severin), 9 (Taylor Jago), 7 (richie, Joe.), 6 (popchartfreak, Colm), 5 (dandy), 4 (Acidburn), 1 (AH Gold) Average: 6.11 Final score: 61.11 Originally recorded by Johnny Mathis in 1957, Bowie’s cover originally appeared as an album track on his 1976 album Station To Station is noted by many fans as being, not only his greatest cover version but also his best ever vocal performance. Although Bowie himself was proud of it, he would later cite Absolute Beginners as his best. He would often continue to say that Wild Is The Wind was one of the songs he most enjoyed performing. The song is regarded the definitive example of the crooning vocal styled associated with the character of the Thin White Duke. The single was released to promote his 1982 best of collection Changestwobowie on RCA records. This is really good. Bowie doing covers usually doesn't go down too well with me but this is much, much better than Alabama Song or Knock On Wood.

#9: Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) {1980} Votes (round / tiebreaker) : 3 / 4 Percentage (round / tiebreaker) : 27.27% / 40.00% In ninth place we have Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps), an album which I frankly expected to do quite badly. It is considered by many to be his last "great album". It does include some of his best tracks (according to the results of the rate anyway) and it succeeds at getting two tracks in the top 10, something which none of the eight albums remaining have managed to do. #9: Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) 3 votes, 27.27% / 4 votes, 40.00% (tiebreaker) #10: The Man Who Sold The World - 6 votes, 60.00% #11: The Next Day - 2 votes, 22.22% #12: Let's Dance - 4 votes, 44.44% #13: Lodger - 3 votes, 37.50% #14: Heathen - 3 votes, 37.50% #15: David Bowie/Space Oddity - 2 votes, 20.00% / 3 votes, 33.33% (tiebreaker) #16: Reality - 2 votes, 20.00% / 4 votes, 44.44% (tiebreaker) #17: Young Americans - 2 votes, 18.18% / 1 vote, 50.00% (first tiebreaker) / 4 votes, 40.00% (second tiebreaker) #18: Outside - 2 votes, 18.18% / 1 vote, 50.00% (first tiebreaker) / 6 votes, 60.00% (second tiebreaker) #19: Earthling - 2 votes, 28.57% #20: Hours... - 2 votes, 28.57% / 3 votes, 42.86% (tiebreaker) #21: Black Tie White Noise - 2 votes, 28.57% / 4 votes, 57.14% (tiebreaker) #22: David Bowie - 2 votes, 18.18% / 2 votes, 22.22% (tiebreaker) #23: Pin Ups - 2 votes, 18.18% / 7 votes, 77.77% (tiebreaker) #24: Tonight - 2 votes, 28.57% #25: Never Let Me Down - 3 votes, 42.86% Voting closes on Friday evening.

Poor guy. He's obviously trying to make sure he doesn't end up with 212 as his only hit (and I don't blame him because that track is absolutely awful). I'm definitely not feeling Unicorn right now, Hold You is much better.

All of three has three votes! The tie needs to be broken!

#54: Diamond Dogs (from Diamond Dogs) 36lWAcY9IXE Year of release: 1974 UK Peak: #21 Chart Run: {37-28-28-21-25-30} (22/06/1974 - 27/07/1974) Scores: 8 (Severin, Acidburn) 7 (richie, Taylor Jago), 6 (Joe.), 5.5 (Dandy), 4 (Colm), 3 (popchartfreak) Average: 6.0625 Final score: 60.625 With Ziggy Stardust finally ‘killed off’ for good, Diamond Dogs introduced the world to Bowie latest character, Halloween Jack. A post apocalyptic street criminal and gang member. Bowie would later draw a direct comparison with the UK Punk scene, describing Jack as being like a young Sid Vicious or Johnny Rotten but in a dystopian future world. Too bleak and downbeat, the character didn’t last long enough to see Punk Rock but Sid Vicious was a huge Bowie fan at the time. The single itself, much like Rebel Rebel owed a debt to the Rolling Stones and The Stooges school of Blues and Garage Rock. It failed to reach the heights of previous new material but Bowie had already moved on. Less than 2 months later he would record Young Americans and mark a drastic shift in style. I'm surprised this hasn't finished higher to be honest. It definitely goes on for too long though.

#55: Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy (with Bing Crosby) DiXjbI3kRus Year of release: 1982 UK Peak: #3 Chart Run: {73-39-22-10-3-3-9-46-93-91} (27/11/1982 - 29/01/1983) Scores: 10 (richie, Colm), 9 (Taylor Jago), 8 (Acidburn), 7 (popchartfreak), 5 (AH Gold), 3 (Severin, Joe.), 2 (Fgiboy2511), 1 (Dandy) Average: 5.8 Final score: 58 In 1977 David Bowie, somewhat surprisingly, appeared on legendary crooner Bing Crosby’s festive Christmas special. Bowie has stated that the appearance was as much to ‘normalise’ his career as it was because ‘my mother liked him’. Bowie is said to have requested to sing a different song as he hated Little Drummer Boy and so the Peace On Earth counterpoint was added. The recording took place in September ’77 and Bing Crosby shortly after, said of Bowie, ‘clean-cut kid and a real fine asset to the show. He sings well, has a great voice and reads lines well’. This comment suggests Crosby’s line about not knowing who Bowie was may ring true. However, others have commented that Crosby may at least have been aware of him. The song was recorded after less than an hour of rehearsal. Sadly, Bing Crosby died less than five weeks after the recording and before the show had been aired. Because of this some even contended that the duet was created through visual effects. Crosby’s death at the time contributed to was briefly known as the ‘curse of Bowie’, when a connection was made with the death of Marc Bolan, who Bowie had recently duetted with in the last ever episode of Bolan’s TV show, also in September 1977. The single’s release was the last on RCA with whom Bowie had now effectively split. His next release was through EMI. The song has gone on to become something of a Christmas favourite and regularly appears on festive playlists. I'm assuming this didn't do well because it isn't the festive period. I hope so anyway, as it's a really good song and should be higher.

I honestly think Hands To Myself is worse actually. I don't mind On My Mind, but it definitely isn't near her best and Don't (the song it is apparently a reply song to) is 1000x better. Those two Rihanna songs are hideous, especially FourFiveSeconds. I was so disappointed in both Paul and Rihanna :( And if Watch Me came on at a party I'd leave the building immediately for three minutes. Utter atrocity, that thing is.

Ratatouille is a fantastic movie :angry: I did like Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 aswell, and while I disagree with the notion of How To Train Your Dragon being DreamWorks' best I don't think it's bad. Can't say I disagree with any of the rest, the first Elizabeth is a great film though.

I can't work out which of those two videos is worse.

Voting closes tomorrow evening. The two albums with the most votes (or album with the most votes if the two others have the same number of votes) will be eliminated.

#10: The Man Who Sold The World {1970} Votes: 6 Percentage: 60.00% With over half the voters voting for it, The Man Who Sold The World finishes in tenth place. Obviously it includes its title track, but apart from that there isn't any well remembered song on it, so I think it's finished at about the right position. #10: The Man Who Sold The World - 6 votes, 60.00% #11: The Next Day - 2 votes, 22.22% #12: Let's Dance - 4 votes, 44.44% #13: Lodger - 3 votes, 37.50% #14: Heathen - 3 votes, 37.50% #15: David Bowie/Space Oddity - 2 votes, 20.00% / 3 votes, 33.33% (tiebreaker) #16: Reality - 2 votes, 20.00% / 4 votes, 44.44% (tiebreaker) #17: Young Americans - 2 votes, 18.18% / 1 vote, 50.00% (first tiebreaker) / 4 votes, 40.00% (second tiebreaker) #18: Outside - 2 votes, 18.18% / 1 vote, 50.00% (first tiebreaker) / 6 votes, 60.00% (second tiebreaker) #19: Earthling - 2 votes, 28.57% #20: Hours... - 2 votes, 28.57% / 3 votes, 42.86% (tiebreaker) #21: Black Tie White Noise - 2 votes, 28.57% / 4 votes, 57.14% (tiebreaker) #22: David Bowie - 2 votes, 18.18% / 2 votes, 22.22% (tiebreaker) #23: Pin Ups - 2 votes, 18.18% / 7 votes, 77.77% (tiebreaker) #24: Tonight - 2 votes, 28.57% #25: Never Let Me Down - 3 votes, 42.86% Votes close on Monday evening.
