King Rollo

3 points Nelly - Country Grammar (Hot Shit) Y5qKNlcUwKs There's only one song with three points. From 2000, it was Nelly's debut single, also peaking at number 7 on the US chart.

2 points Hilary Duff - Wake Up Godley & Creme - Wedding Bells Jesus Jones - International Bright Young Thing Coi Leray - Players M.O.P. featuring Busta Rhymes – Ante Up Progress presents The Boy Wunda – Everybody Wet Wet Wet – Don't Want To Forgive Me Now T2l_OBsq3Lc I couldn't find room in my vote for this song so I'm glad Popchartfreak gave it two points. It was the follow-up to Godley & Creme's top 3 single, 'Under Your Thumb'. International Bright Young Thing was the first of just two top 10 hits for Jesus Jones while Don't Want To Forgive Me Now was one of many for Wet Wet Wet.

1 point Lily Allen - Air Balloon Max Bygraves - Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea David Guetta and Sia - Flames Leona Lewis featuring Childish Gambino – Trouble Brenda Lee - All Alone Am I Mel and Kim - F.L.M. Shy FX and T Power featuring Di – Shake Ur Body Splodgenessabounds – Simon Templar/Two Pints of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps Please VS - Love You Like Mad Whistle – (Nothing Serious) Just Buggin' mZhPjznCPiY We start off with this punk classic from 1980 which later on inspired the title of a BBC sitcom. The release coincided with the time that Top Of The Pops was off the air due to a strike so the band missed an opportunity to promote it. I haven't checked to see what the oldest single to receive points is but Max Bygraves' long titled song from 1954 must be close to it. In 1987, FLM was the third top 10 hit for Mel and Kim. From the year before, the rap song (Nothing Serious) Just Buggin' was the only hit single by the American group Whistle.

Thanks for voting. You gave 20 points to two songs so I've moved everything below Celebration down by one place and What It Feels Like For A Girl gets knocked off.

I have now updated the scores to include your last change as I wanted everything to tally up correctly so Martine McCutcheon now gets points from you.

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED Thanks to the 45 people who voted, a great turnout. The results will start this evening.

I will still accept any overnight votes.

We are glad you are OK, that's the main thing.

Just one from me this week: Tears For Fears - Sowing The Seeds Of Love

Yes, that's fine, thanks. :)

It's midnight on Sunday night.

Thanks to the 26 people who have voted so far. The rest of you have the weekend left to get your votes in.

Round 1: 33 I only knew the Sugababes double A side because people are voting for it in my no.7 poll Round 2: 30 3 in 10: 3

Hallelujah was the only one in the top 3 I voted for but at least my top song, I Believe In Father Christmas, finished in 4th place. Thanks for running this, Julian.

Spiceboy, I've just changed the scores for all the songs you voted for after you changed your vote to include Islands In The Stream. I'm not going to change them again. It's just too fiddly to do that as well as adding the new votes that are coming in. Sorry.

The top 2 were the same as my own vote, just the other way around, so that's a very good outcome. Thanks Dan for running the poll.

7th - 13th January 1965 37. Three Bells - Brian Poole and The Tremeloes A cover of a US number 1 for The Browns in 1959 which was itself adapted from an old French song. They sing this virtually acapella, it's not too bad. 40. Tribute To Jim Reeves - Larry Cunningham and The Mighty Avons This Irish band supported Jim Reeves on his tour of their country in 1963 so they would certainly have known him. The tribute part is spoken while I think the singing part is their version one of his songs. Record of the week : 39. Baby Please Don't Go - Them No doubt it has to be this song with its distinctive guitar riff. I like the raw bluesy sound which supports a fine lead vocal from a young Van Morrison. The earliest version was by Big Joe Williams in 1935. This one will peak at number 10, a first hit single for the Belfast band. 8Wah7MqEHFg

Belinda Carlisle - Heaven Is A Place On Earth George Harrison - Got My Mind Set On You UB40 - Red Red Wine Phil Collins - Two Hearts INXS - Need You Tonight Worst: Exposé - Seasons Change Whitney Houston - Where Do Broken Hearts Go Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine - Anything For You

Yes, my Guinness book of hit singles is showing it peaking at number 9 so it will be disqualified.

The Bangles - Hazy Shade Of Winter Johnny Hates Jazz - Shattered Dreams Belinda Carlisle - I Get Weak RIP - for Jimmy Carter can we have Jimmy Jimmy by The Undertones
