2000s hits returning to the charts years after release
Milky's 2002 song 'Just The Way You Are' is the next song to re-enter the top 40 at #35. Not too crazy on the remix but nice to see this back. One I bought at the time!

Herbs Ranks the 2008 #1's
Catching up on this as haven't commented on the positions yet. I do like 'All Summer Long' myself oops but I get why it has vitriol shown towards it too. 'Hero' is probably the X Factor's ensembles best effort but not that that's saying much. Don't mind Alexandra's 'Hallelujah' either but doesn't touch Jeff's and Rufus's is great also. 'Singin In The Rain' remix is great too. Certainly was an unexpected chart topper at the time.

Round 6 : End Of Year Survivor #136
American Rock band Puddle Of Mudd are seen off next with 'Blurry'. It was released as the second single from the bands debut album Come Clean. The group was all signed to Fred Dursts record label Flawless Records but the label were unimpressed with that line up and scrapped them to rebuild with brand new member that lead singer Wes Scantlin had not known before and thus was flown out to record with. 'Blurry' was released over here in June 2002 and peaked at 8. 6 Puddle Of Mudd - Blurry (12/26 Votes) 7 Bloc Party - The Prayer (9/28 Votes) 8 Morrissey - Irish Blood, English Heart (13/30 Votes) 9 Nelly Ft Justin Timberlake - Work It (10/28 Votes) 10 Vengaboys - Uncle John From Jamaica (10/30) Vote your Least Fave!

Year End Survivor Results
#1331st 24/34 VotesFor the second time in a survivor the collab between Linkin Park and Jay Z comes out the victor with their long enduring top 20 hit 'Numb/Encore', a mash up of the two 2003 release songs. It also came 3rd in the #96 edition and will likely do well another couple of times to come too as it's not had it's final reappearance in these. 2nd 9/34 Votes Santana settles for second place with 'Maria Maria' which was another top 10 for him in 2000 and features R&B duo The Product G&B. It was the third best selling single in the US. The track made it's way back into the chart a couple of years ago due to going viral with TikTok and was sampled on DJ Khaled's 2017 chart topper 'Wild Thoughts' alongside Rihanna and Bryson Tiller. 3rd: Sugababes - In The Middle 14/32 votes (44%) 4th: Mini Viva - Left My Heart In Tokyo 11/29 votes (38%) 5th: Jack Johnson - Better Together 10/27 votes (37%) 6th: White Stripes - Blue Orchid 9/29 votes (31%) 7th: Samantha Mumba - Baby Come On Over 8/29 votes (28%) 8th: Shania Twain - Ka-Ching! 7/28 votes (25%) 9th: Lil Wayne - Lollipop 17/29 votes (59%) 10th: S Club Juniors - Puppy Love / Sleigh Ride 20/34 votes (59%)

Round 5 : End Of Year Survivor #136
Going for Kate now. Had to check it as I didn't recall it that well and thus sadly not a classic by her. Always really liked 'Blurry' so hopefully it survives another round but will likely be the end of the road and it's done okay considering this type of rock isn't well received much.

Round 5 : End Of Year Survivor #136
Not a good day for fans of Bloc Party who are out in another survivor. This time with the lead single 'The Prayer' from the second album A Weekend In City which also features 'Flux' on the re-release of the album. Lead singer Kele said hearing Busta Rhymes 'Touch It' inspired him to write the song and also described it as having a crunk like effect. It was the bands second top 5 hit peaking at 4 in January 2007! 7 Bloc Party - The Prayer (9/28 Votes) 8 Morrissey - Irish Blood, English Heart (13/30 Votes) 9 Nelly Ft Justin Timberlake - Work It (10/28 Votes) 10 Vengaboys - Uncle John From Jamaica (10/30) Vote your Least Fave!
