Had this been last year, almost the whole top 50 would have appeared in the decade top 100!!

You've missed off Yolanda Be Cool from your #1s list

Last year I did this thread and its appeared quite popular so thought this year I'd do the same. As always, just curious how people think the first couple of months could fare #1 wise. Here are some of the contenders. Feel free to add any others if you think I've missed any Rihanna featuring Drake - What's My Name Now #1 on itunes so could this us the first UK #1 of 2011? Bruno Mars – Grenade The fake was quite high on itunes, I'd say this has a very good chance. Adele - Rolling In The Deep Now the 17th looks like a tough week. Many including myself thought Chasing Pavements was going to reach #1 but it never did. This song has already been #1 in the Netherland and is #1 on German itunes, could this her a first UK #1? Her album should do it anyway. Avril Lavigne - What The Hell Her first single in 3/4 years, the clip sounds promising to me so could she finally have a UK #1? Releasing on the 17th may be a mistake though as its a bit soon. Diddy Dirty Money – Coming Home Really liking this, getting some good TV and Radio1 airplay so far, could this even beat Adele I wonder? I think top 5 at the moment though Ke$ha – We R Who We R Still yet to have a UK #1 (Tik Tok was #1 in most countries) could this give her a UK #1? Possibly but it wouldnt surprise me if she got stuck behind Adele at #2 Chase & Status feat Liam Bailey - Blind Faith Not sure about this, but this could them a fair big hit in the new year, Radio1 are bumming it already. Enrique Iglesias - Tonight Already taking off in the states, with the 'rude' video, could he finally get a second UK #1? I think this could be very big myself but will Radio 1 playlist it? I know they didnt playlist I Like it but did they playlist Heartbeat? Yasmin – On My Own Maybe a #1 in the new year? Think it could be quite big though don't see #1 Alexis Jordan - Good Girl Released on the 21st Feb, could she get another surprise hit? I never expected Happiness to do as well as it did :o A few we havent heard yet.. Lady Gaga has had an amazing 2009/2010, chances are she will come back with a corker and have another massive hit. Britney Spears - A fair bit of hype about this one, if its any good, ie Toxic good then could she get another UK #1 Comic Relief - No firm news about this one so a bit early to say but they nearly always do well.

Oh I see your point and see where your coming from (though don't always agree with airplay being included). I was just showing goodelta the top 20 based on sales :lol:

Shaky - Did you find out if there was a year end countdown on 2fm this year?

This is their top 20 of the year so far...not sure if theres another week or two to add though. I think its very close between Lena and Shakira. I loved the German chart this year though even I'm shocked how big Israel has been (12 weeks at #1 and still counting and now its now #1 in France) :blink: 1. Lena Meyer-Landrut – Satellite (1) 2. Shakira featuring Freshlyground – Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) (1) 3. Unheilig – Geboren Um Zu Leben (2) 4. Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole – Over The Rainbow (1) 5. Yolanda Be Cool Vs D-Cup – We No Speak Americano (1) 6. K’naan – Wavin’ Flag (1) 7. Stromae – Alors On Danse (1) 8. Keri Hilson – I Like (1) 9. Ke$ha – Tik Tok (1) 10. Hurts – Wonderful Life (2) 11. Eminem featuring Rihanna – Love The Way You Lie (1) 12. Mehrzad Marashi - Don't Believe (1) 13. Madcon – Glow (4) 14. Velile & Safri Duo – Helele (2) 15. Edward Maya feat. Vika Jigulina – Stereo Love (4) 16. Lady Gaga – Bad Romance (1) 17. Lady Gaga – Alejandro (2) 18. Katy Perry – California Gurls (3) 19. Aura Dione – I Will Love You Monday (365) (1) 20. Taio Cruz featuring Ludacris – Break Your Heart (5)

Well I thoroughly enjoyed watching your chart countdown today (i even was looking at it at work). My top 5 of the year were all #1s in your chart too so we must have similar tastes :dance: Heres a few comments 01. [223] Eminem feat. Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie - Love it, surprised it only had a week at #1 though, bet your glad you put it there now. 02. [217] Yolanda Be Cool & DCup - We No Speak Americano - Still loving this too 03. [216] Stromae - Alors On Danse - So glad this was big for you, still havent grown tired of this even after nearly a year [/b 04. [203] Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are 05. [193] Cee Lo Green - Forget You! 06. [193] Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) - My fav song of the year ;) 07. [173] Plan B - She Said 08. [163] Timbaland feat. Katy Perry - If We Ever Meet Again 09. [160] K'naan - Wavin' Flag 10. [160] Eliza Doolittle - Pack Up 11. [158] Owl City - Fireflies - Its a shame that the two weeks from last year werent counted as I'm sure it may have been very close to your top 5? 12. [150] B.o.B. feat. Bruno Mars - Nothin' On You 13. [149] Alicia Keys - Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart 14. [149] Rihanna - Rude Boy 15. [146] Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers 17. [141] Taio Cruz - Dynamite 18. [139] Keri Hilson - I Like 19.

[115] Mark Ronson & The Business Intl. - Bang Bang Bang 30. [114] Katie Melua - The Flood 33. [111] Tinie Tempah feat. Eric Turner - Written In The Stars 34. [109] Iyaz - Replay 36. [108] Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow - Shame 38. [106] Florence & The Machine & Dizzee Rascal - You Got The Dirtee Love 39. [106] Shakira feat. Freshlyground - Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) - This has suddenly regrown on me loads the past week, this and Yolanda were planned to DEATH when I was in Spain back in September.40. [104] Train - Hey, Soul Sister

Thanks Hits for this, no major shocks in the top 10 though. They are have been massive European hits, just a shame Shakira and Stromae were never able to be that big here. Could you post the final list of #1s for 2010 please? :dance:

Oh thanks Shaky, certainly likely that could top the chart next week, probably a massive selling top 2 either way. They will be fighting for the year end #1 IMO. Any word if they are counting down the top 40 of the year this year Shaky on 2fm?

Quite shocked Matt is the fastest seller since Six and it didnt have a whole week :o That Rubberbandits track is alright, though as I'm not Irish i personally don't get it. Does it have a physical? its got an impressive lead on itunes right now.

Your right, its being backed by RTE station in Ireland. I don't 'get' it myself but then I'm not Irish. The song does have a MASSIVE lead on itunes (at least 3 to 1) so the X Factor winner already has alot of ground to make up. Though technically the Irish Xmas chart wont be announced until 24th (a week later) as the charts runs from Friday to Thursday.

I've been out tonight, what exactly did Cheryl say to Wagner? And what did Matt do wrong? :blink:

Is there a link to those leaked votes? I'm curious :o

Ben - Thanks very much for the reply and confirming that for me :D

Oh really? i take it the new version did work though? I am too only keeping the older version for the pop bars, I like looking at other countries pop bars too (which is why i asked if you can still access other countries on the new version). At least the link on page 1 is letting me see the pop bars for the mo. I'm still holding off. Oh so you've reinstalled an earlier version :lol: Is it all working again inc pop bars? Or is the message still coming up. Oh and Alexis is now up #9 :dance:

Apparently according to Carlo but I'm personally holding off for a few more days, itunes has played up before then fixed itself days later. Does anyone know if on the new version of itunes there are still links to other countries itunes homepages? (I'm presuming yes). I just forced myself on US itunes and used the pop bar link on page 1 and it showed me there pop bars too so it works for each country, you learn something new each day :dance:

Cool, thanks for the advice, was that recently? I'll wait until the end of the week and if nothing, I reckon I'll update it then. I just saw the pop bars though by clicking on the link on page 1 so at least thats something :cheer: This has been asked many times I'm sure but on the newer version of itunes, does anyone know how to get the pop bars? And :o at Alexis

I do, I did wonder actually if that was the reason I was having problems but assumed it would say my version was out of date and would no longer work rather than saying it was just temparily unavailable. I only kept it due to the pop bars but theres a way to get it on the newer versions isn't there?

Yeah I've been getting it since Friday, no idea why its happening. I did mention it on here but no-one seemed to be having a problem at the time, kinda glad its not just me though - was worried it was my computer. It still lets you search though (presumingly you can still buy songs), you just can't access the main page. Hopefully it will sort itself :(

Cheers, its annoying me now, everytime i sign in it just says that phrase and wont even get to the homepage! :(

I know there were glitches with itunes this morning (after reading the thread) but has anyone had problems accessing it today? Its been saying ''We could not complete your itunes store request. The itunes store is temporarily unavailable, please try again later'' all day for me, my connection is fine and it was ok last night? Won't even let me do it once I've logged on!

Surely now though the Flood will be up against the X Factor finalists so may get stuck at #2 anyway?

Rihanna is now #1 and beginning to pull away now (esp from Cheryl who is still stuck at #3 but will be #2 tomorrow). I'd imagine Cheryl will catch up or overtake after X Factor on Sunday though.

I was quite surprised they didnt mention who was on next weeks X Factor at all, not even mentioning that Cheryl was performing. I guess in theory she may perform in mid November but then with quite a few acts probably performing then including Westlife, Take that, JLS, Subo, Alex Im not sure when she'd be on. I'm just now hoping she performs on the 31st, Cheryl will definately go #1 in the first week, I just hope Rihanna can climb the following :cry:

Sadly #2 behind Cheryl Cole though I don't think Cheryl will sell anywhere near 300k like FFTL did. I think it could come down who gives the better performance actually and it honestly wouldnt surprise me if Rihanna climbed the following week (but may be thats just wishful thinking). Who knows...
