Pinball Wizard was recorded first by The Who in 1969. Elton John performed the song in the 1975 film adaptation of Tommy and released it as a single the following year. Take That and Britney Spears are both preoccupied with numbers, one big and one small.

30 points Beyonce - Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) DHT featuring Edmee – Listen To Your Heart Free - Wishing Well eKy_puDDnRk The British group Free are best known for 'All Right Now' but they had two other top 10 hits, one of which was Wishing Well in 1973. Single Ladies by Beyonce won three Grammy awards in 2009. I'm surprised only two people voted for it. Also here is a cover of the Roxette song, Listen To Your Heart.

20 points Melanie C - Here It Comes Again The Dooleys - The Chosen Few Desiigner - Panda Erasure - Victim Of Love Maroon 5 featuring Cardi B – Girls Like You Queen - Breakthru' Point Break - Stand Tough Red Hot Chili Peppers - Love Rollercoaster The Singing Nun (Soeur Sourire) - Dominique CEjU9KVABao Queen have four number 7 singles and they all received votes. Written by Roger Taylor, Breakthru' was the second single taken from their 1989 album 'The Miracle'. Victim Of Love only finished 14th in the recent Erasure rate so it's not too much of a surprise to see it struggling here. The Chosen Few was one of three top 10 hits for the family group The Dooleys in the late 70s. Dominique was a big seller for The Singing Nun in 1963, reaching number 1 in the US.
