Roba.

Been 6 or 7 weeks but we managed over 200 posts (251) this past week and sending us back inside the top 3 (last time being mid July)!

+5 12 to 12 +4 Rein Me In +3 When Did You Get Hot +2 Man I Need +1 Tears -1 Your Idol -2 Golden -3 Nice To Each Other -4 Soda Pop -5 Manchild

Uniting Nations again. I'm the opposite with Amy. Much prefer 'Mr Rock and Roll' to 'This Is The Life'!

'Mr Brightside' for me now.

A top Muse track there. Worthy of being a #1 definitely. Love The Darkness Christmas offering as well!

I liked Orson too, prefer 'Bright Idea' over 'No Tomorrow' even (though a small gap between the two).

'You Said No' is a fun track as is the one still to come. Wouldn't be out yet for me either!

#124 1st - 24/33 Votes Gwen easily wins this survivor with her 4th single 'Cool' off the debut solo album Love. Angel. Music. Baby. The track has been compared to Cyndi Lauper and Madonna's 80's music and is about an ex boyfriend and how they have separated but remain "Cool" as good friends. Gwen was dating bassist of No Doubt Tony Kanal between 1987 to 1994 which also inspired their hit song 'Don't Speak'. It peaked at 11 in the summer of 2005. 2nd - 9/33 Votes Britney Spears manages to come runner up with 'Break The Ice' which peaked at 15 in March 2008. It's the third single off Britney's fifth album Blackout and won a online poll for choice for next single over her planned 3rd single 'Radar' instead. The video is an anime-influenced animation and was produced by a South Korean studio called Studio Animal. 3rd: Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger 14/29 votes (48%) 4th: Pink - So What 14/31 votes (45%) 5th: Ultrabeat - Feelin’ Fine 12/32 votes (38%) 6th: Bhangra Knights vs Husan - Husan 9/30 votes (30%) 7th: Kaci - Paradise 18/34 votes (53%) 8th: Kaci - I Think I Love You 13/32 votes (41%) 9th: Whitney Houston & Enrique Iglesias - Could I Have This Kiss Forever 10/31 votes (31%) 10th: Busta Rhymes featuring will.i.am & Kelis - I Love My Chick 8/34 votes (24%)

Destiny’s Child easily wins here.

Kelly but Ne-Yo's is quite good too.

Yeah I don't think that much of Bryan Adam's 'Heaven' either oops. Interesting seeing the other ranks too as per.

I would put another below that personally but I can see why it's hated tbf. I don't hate it per say but it's certainly a slog and listening back now the vocals were not good at all.

No qualms about that being in last. Very bland and uninspired.

Looking forward to you continuing the yearly series Julian. Looking down the list the #1's are better than I thought so excited to see where some of my faves land!

and that's it. Thanks all for the comments and nice stories shared. It was one of the best years in music so was honoured to cover it!

1 and the final one coming in at the top is P!nk and 'Just Like A Pill'. I liked both of her last two singles a lot but this one was where it really came alive for P!nk. An edgy/angsty anthem of an song which addresses the deep topic of drugs. The video is excellent as well. It is in my top 2 faves of hers along with 'Who Knew' and to add she's one of my all time fave female artists so I guess a predictable #1 lol but very very much deserving. It's a classic ❤️

2 Spanish DJ Sammy is having to make do with 2nd with 'Heaven' a cover of Bryan Adam's 80's track. It spent a week at number one in November. Yanou an German electronic and trance musician and producer also works in collaboration with him on this and vocals are provided by Do, an Dutch singer. It has two versions, the main radio one and also an candlelight version. It is one of the most imaginative and compelling dance records ever for me, not just in 2002 and would be much deserving of the #1 but there's one for me that just about beats it...

Oops I like the Five and Orson tracks, the formers is up there with their best for me. The Script first I think though it's still okay.

Sticking with Tweet!

Gone for Uniting Nations but I do like it!

I've voted for Samantha as it's a lovely ballad and I bought that too. Not sure I've heard Lisa's before but a it's bop so was tougher than I thought. Expecting the latter to dominate though.

The correct and perfect winner for me, congrats Neliönoir! Great top 10 on the whole and happy with 4th. My fave entry in a while I'd say and so had a good feeling about it. Thanks for all those 18's and votes albeit in just the 17 of them. Loved the hosting dandy*!
