08. Lily Allen - The Fear [Peak: #1]

07. Sound of Arrows - Into The Clouds [Peak: #1]

As we enter the top 10 we have our highest ranked UK Top 40 hit (The Fear) and our highest ranked male artist (The Sound of Arrows), along side the serial #2 (LIGHTS - 4 n/c weeks at #2), the longest running #1 of the year (AySel) and Eurovision Star Jade Ewen. As we approach the top 5 I can reveal the artists still left in are: AySel and Arash, Mira Craig, Polly Scattergood, Annet Artani and Beautiful Small Machines!

176 Laura Marling – Alas, I Cannot Swim

 

Can't believe this is so low :o

I loved them on X Factor, it was so blatent the producers wanted them to win, they had more coverage and an immensly better song, still you can't argue with people power :P

05. Lady GaGa - The Fame Monster

04. Velvet - The Queen

03. Mira Craig - Ghetto Fairytale

02. Lily Allen - It's Not Me, It's You

01. Polly Scattergood - Polly Scattergood

 

And now the top 5! At five is the biggest album of the year and imo if it wasn't for the 8 tracks on the Fame Monster EP this album wouldn't be half as good.#4 is Velvet with The Queen, her album is full of dance stompers and despite lacking any real depth it really is a great album on the face of it. Mira Craig breaks into the top 3 with her third and best album, Ghetto Fairytale, this album is the best hip-hop album I've ever had and there are some tracks on it no music fan should be without. Just missing out on the top spot is Lily Allen with her second effort It's Not Me, It's You. She's greatly developed her sound from her first album and continued down the route of amusing lyrics/music with serious subject matter. Meaning #1 goes to Polly Scattergood with her debut disc and far and away the album of the year. Every track on this album is excellent but five of them are outstanding.

10. Bird - Girl and A Cello

09. Florence and the Machine - Lungs

08. Leona Lewis - Echo

07. Slow Club - Yeah So

06. Little Boots - Hands

 

Kicking off the top 10 is Danish cellist Bird with one of the surprises of the year (for me) this album really has some incredible tracks on it. #9 is the much hyped Florence and the Machine with her impressive debut, if the vocals were less overlayed in parts, this could've been top 5. #8 is Leona Lewis and "the difficult second album", Echo really didn't disappoint me and really develops her as an artist, with many more upbeat tracks giving the album depth. Slow Club are at #7 with the simplistic Yeah So and 2009's flop of the year Little Boots is at #6 with Hands. This album has some storming electro-pop on it but is let down by the back end.

ALBUMS

15. Taylor Swift - Fearless

14. Lake Heartbeat - Trust In Numbers

13. LIGHTS - The Listening

12. Hadise - Fast Life

11. Bat for Lashes - Two Suns

 

Kicking off the albums is pop-country sensation Taylor Swift, this album has some great tracks, but could do with some trimming, there's a few too many fillers. #14 is Lake Heartbeat, once again there are some outstanding tracks, but a couple of duds bring it down, the same applies to Canadian star LIGHTS who's #13 with her debut disc The Listening, over half the tracks are great but some really let it down. #12 is Hadise with her stormer Fast Life, I'm going to Turkey in February and I hope all the music's like this :kink:. Just missing out on the top 10 is Bat For Lashes with her hypnotic Two Suns, how did this lose at the mercury's to Speech Debelle (whose album I also own :P)

15. Hadfis Huld - Kongulo [Peak: #1]

14. Leddra Chapman - Story [Peak: #1]

13. The Sound of Arrows - M.A.G.I.C. [Peak: #2]

12. Taylor Swift - Love Story [Peak: #1]

11. Leona Lewis - Happy [Peak: #1]

 

Up next are three amazing lesser known tracks and two UK #2 hits. Both Kongulo and M.A.G.I.C. represented FSR Rontvia in the BJSC and Story will represent me in January :kink:. Love Story was Taylor Swift's breakthrough UK hit and it's just amazing whereas Happy was the lead single off of Leona Lewis's second album and her first taste of chart dissappointment.

19. Emmalyn Estrada - Get Down [Peak: #2]

18. Inga and Anush - Jan Jan [Peak: #5]

17. Velvet - The Queen [Peak: #3]

16. Little Boots - Remedy [Peak: #2]

 

Velvet, Ana Free and Little Boots all get their second and final entries as Emmalyn Estrada and Inga and Anush score their only appearances. With fifteen songs left there are two artists with multiple entries left, one eurovision entrant and one male act remaining in the countdown.

21. Velvet - Take My Body Close - [Peak: #1]

 

In this next section there's the only foreign language song in the countdown as well as two colossal #1 hits, an upcoming UK superstar and Sweden's finest with the first of her two entries. As we move into the top20 there are 5 UK top 40 hits, 2 eurovision entries as well as two artists with multiple entries.

26. Laura Marling - Goodbye England [Peak: #1]

 

This is an incredibly sound of 2009 segment with La Roux, Florence and the Machine and Little Boots (5th, 3rd and 1st) all getting enries with their breakthrough singles. They're joined by Pixie Lott and her one standout song as well as the lead single from Laura Marlin's 2nd album, Goodbye England.

Also I Need You Now by Agnes becomes the first #1 of the year to fall, leaving 18 #1 singles in the top 30. Ana Free gets her first of two entries, his time with help from fellow Portugese artist Mia Rose.

Jerick, remind me to vote on this ;)

#20 Britney Spears - In The Zone
#19 Sandi Thom - The Pink and the Lily
#18 Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes

This album is a bit of a stand out on this countdown as there are a few dud tracks, but when the tracks are good they're really good, it's a shame that Sandi Thom was a one album wonder as I prefer this to her debut effort.
