Rihanna wins for the second time, and being on the role that she's been on, it's possible to get another 10 wins, however she has to overcome Katy Perry first This time of year always means lack of new songs, so some will be repeated. Results: Rihanna ft. Drake - What's My Name [ 32 ] [66.67%] Cheryl Cole - The Flood [ 16 ] [33.33%] Next challenger, Katy Perry - Firework VOTE AWAY

I think i may agree, I think Rihanna is definitely the 'big' artist around right now! (it DID lose out to OGITW tho)

So Rihanna defeats Olly Murs with What's My Name - Could she do another 9 wins and have another retired song?? Olly Murs - Thinking Of Me [ 13 ] [31.71%] Rihanna ft. Drake - What's My Name [ 28 ] [68.29%] Next challenger is Cheryl Cole - The Flood VOTE AWAY

Matt Cardle didn't last long as Olly Murs gets a decisive win! Matt Cardle - When We Collide [ 10 ] [25.64%] Olly Murs - Thinking Of Me [ 29 ] [74.36%] Next up to challenge - Rihanna dt. Drake with What's My Name VOTE AWAY!!

So after Rihanna retires undefeated, Matt Cardle wins the first battle between two fresh songs! Matt Cardle - When We Collide [ 23 ] [67.65%] Black Eyed Peas - The Time (Dirty Bit) [ 11 ] [32.35%] Next challenger for Matt, another X-Factorite, Olly Murs - Thinking Of Me! Who will win this time?? GET VOTING!!

Lol, nah, not much of a rap/hip hop fan really, I don't really know the ins and outs of how that side of music works. I won't knock his rapping skills (not a fan of it, but can't deny he's good at it!) but if you look at an act like Eminem, he's a rapper who never sings but the majority of his tracks are solo pieces. Having said that, and I'm contradicting myself a bit here, Eminem has recently started to collaborate more, I guess it's just the way the music business is changing over time.

Just wondering, does Tinie Tempah do ANY tracks on his own or does he have to collaborate with others to make himself successful?? I can't think of one track he's done as a solo (apart from Pass Out which although uncredited, had Labrinth helping him out!)

So Rihanna wins for the 10th time meaning Only Girl retires undefeated. Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) [ 28 ] [59.57%] Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are (Amazing) [ 19 ] [40.43%] So now for something different, really the lesser of 2 evils, Matt Cardle vs. Black Eyed Peas!! VOTE AWAY!!

Great idea!!

YAY! I came last!! (although I did only enter 1 game!) Maybe next year I'll have a better track record!

Once again Rihanna wins, for the 9th time now, so if she wins again I will start with 2 fresh songs next time, rule being when a song wins 10 times it retires undefeated (also,I, like many of you feel, it is getting rather dull having the same song win EVERY time!) Anyway, the official results are as follows: Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) [ 33 ] [66.00%] Katy B ft. Ms Dynamite - Lights On [ 17 ] [34.00%] One more outing for Rihanna, this time against a song that is past its peak in the charts, however was suggested last time and I had been thinking about it myself... Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are (Amazing) Can Rihanna hold on for a 10th time and retire undefeated, or will Bruno Mars end her run?? GET VOTING!!

Still got a few hours left, but it seems like OGITW is going to win AGAIN!!! So, I'm going to wait for 10 wins then start again as I am also getting fed up seeing it win all the time!

Once again Rihanna wins (I SWEAR this isn't rigged!) with 28 votes to 15, and to answer Karma's question as to why I put Katy B down, call it insanity! I have no idea!! But since it has been brought up, let's see how Rihanna does against Katy B! Results from last contest Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) [ 28 ] [65.12%] Tinie Tempah ft. Kelly Rowland - Invincible [ 15 ] [34.88%] So, Rihanna vs Katy B?? GET VOTING!!

So out of the 5 selected Christmas songs, Fairytale Of New York (unsurprisingly) beat off the other 4 songs, although closer than maybe expected, 16 votes to Mariah Carey in second with 13, with the others following behind, full results are as follows: Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody [ 3 ] [6.38%] Wham - Last Christmas [ 9 ] [19.15%] Pogues ft. Kirsty MacColl - Fairytale Of New York [ 16 ] [34.04%] Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You [ 13 ] [27.66%] Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday [ 6 ] [12.77%] Hope everyone had a great Christmas, now back to the normal game, and we pick up where we left off, Rihanna holding off another challenger, how will she fare against a suggestion from a voter - Tinie Tempah?? GET VOTING!!

Very true on both counts, and if people are wondering why Band Aid was not listed as an option, it's because I took the christmas songs that charted highest this week, excluding Coldplay's new song, which hasn't really earnt anthem status yet!

Sound of the Underground, closely followed by Something Kinda OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

So Rihanna has done it AGAIN, despite a good try, Biffy Clyro failed to dislodge Only Girl by 34 votes - 27 votes HOWEVER, it's Christmas so taking a break from the regular song battle, I've listed 5 classic Christmas songs, again vote for your favourite, I'm sure there are some songs I've left out, so many anthems, so few to select from! But out of the 5 listed above, WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE?? GET VOTING!!

Take That's Flood has already failed sadly, and I think although BC looked good earlier on, I think Rihanna is going to win again, I have taken in people's song suggestions as well!

The Rihanna fans are out in force, 29-23 in favour of her now! :(

it's close! 19-18 in favour of Biffy!

Ok, IT'S BACK!!! Yes, I'm back from the hols, which I might add was a prolonged experience due to the mess of the Eurostar (7 hrs to be told there were no trains URGH!) Anyway, once again Rihanna wins her battle, with a 35-17 vote win over Trashmen I'd like to clarify to one post from the previous thread, there is no set 'winner' as such, this will keep going for as long as people are interested, amusing thing is I'm not a huge Only Girl fan myself! So no, Rihanna is not rigged to win everytime. How will she do against the original version of Many of Horror?? GET VOTING!!

Rihanna continues to fend off other songs, however Katy Perry was the closest threat to date, but just missed out by 27 votes - 25! Next up, Surfin' Bird by Trashmen! Also, I'm off on holiday for a week or so, so this will be the last battle until next week, I'll leave it open for you to vote until then GET VOTING!!

VOTING CLOSED!!

Firework 1 ahead at time of looking! 20-19
