America's Next Top Model 2018 | Cycle 24
Everyone, bar Hadassah and Devin, is really strong. I honestly don't mind who wins this cycle, although I do hope it's Lacey.

Hurts - "Some Kind of Heaven"
'Some Kind of Heaven' and 'Lights' are the official singles :) I've loved all the songs so far, looking forward to hearing the album :wub:

Fear The Walking Dead | Season 1
I found the entire series so f***ing depressing I could hardly enjoy it. I totally saw the death coming, Season 2 will have 15 episodes and the actress practically can't be on two shows with that many episodes.

Anime
I've lived anime-free since June, I need to get back to it ASAP, especially since I've left a few series unfinished (Kuroko, Tokyo Ghoul, Nisekoi, Noragami). School Live sounds cool, a plot twist might be just what I need to get myself addicted again!

Doctor Who: Series 9
It has been a brilliant season so far and I love that it's almost all two-parters. Really looking forward to the conclusion next week and the 2-parter with Maisie Williams the week after that!

Lily Allen - No Shame
Lily has 2 brand new songs on the soundtrack for Pan, 'Something's Not Right' & 'Little Soldier'. Not too keen on them at first listen, but I think they'll grow. -Y636VNnvc0 8ITKdraRWFI

America's Next Top Model 2018 | Cycle 24
I love this season, but it's been getting harder and harder to get a hold of new episodes. Release groups don't even bother with it anymore. I watched last week's ep in terrible quality on YT (it was eventually uploaded 3 days later) and last night's ep is nowhere to be found :(

Anastacia - Take This Chance
Her voice doesn't sound half as bad as that last note in 'Pendulum'. Not that I mind, I still love her and bless her for all she's been through!

Anastacia - Ultimate Collection
It's a Sony release, so the exclusion of Heavy Rotation makes sense as it was actually put out by Universal. I was hoping for that b-sides disc :(

Sia - Alive
This could possibly be Sia's greatest post-We Are Born song. Time will tell if it ages well, but I'm ADDICTED to it at the moment. It deserves to be massive.

Lily Allen Singles Rate - RESULTS
3 - LDN (8.22) wmYT79tPvLg Queens of the night: 11 (Chez Wombat), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, JosephStyles, Acidburn, Mackenzie, Liam, Heezus Froot, Davidson, Josh.) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: 0 (rob_s), 4.5 (Fgiboy2511), 5 (Aaron.) At number three we have the highest rated single from 'Alright, Still' and well deserved, as it's far better than Smile, imo. LDN *only* made number 6 in the UK Charts, despite the hype surrounding Lily and the success of her album. 2 - Hard Out Here (8.55) E0CazRHB0so Queens of the night: 11 (JosephStyles, Acidburn, Heezus Froot, Jack), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, Joe., rob_s, Liаm, american oxygen., Slick, AaronTM, DJHazey, Aaron.) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: -1 (Griff), 1 (Chez Wombat) I'm so happy for the love this song gets. 'Hard Out Here' may not have managed to dethrone Queen 'The Fear', but it remains just as brilliant. Its release marked probably the biggest injustice of 2014. A lot of people, including myself, expected it to replace 'Somewhere Only We Know' at number one, but only a few people bought it and it barely managed to peak at nine. :cry: 1 - The Fear (9.94) :winner: q-wGMlSuX_c Queens of the night: EVERYONE (eight 11s, seventeen 10s, a few 9s and 9.5s, a couple of 8s and a 7.5) :funky: It's not fair and I think you're really mean: NO ONE :banana: 'The Fear' continues its reign since 2009 as the best Lily Allen song with an impressive average score of 9.94, albeit a tad lower than last year's rate, hosted by Joseph, where it got a 10.08 (!!!). The song was originally put up on Lily's Myspace in April 2008, under the title 'I Don't Know' and until its official premiere in December, it already had over 400 plays on my last.fm. To this date it remains my most played song in over 7 years, not even including the hundreds of times I've watched the near-perfect video.

7 - Smile (7.69) 0WxDrVUrSvI Queens of the night: 10 (Ultraviolence1989, Acidburn, Liam, Slick, troublepink, Josh.) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: -1 (Fgiboy2511), 0 (mr_aly), 2 (rob_s) I needn't say anything about this song. 'Smile' is Lily's debut single (not counting the limited 7" release of 'LDN'), it introduced her to the world, went straight to number one and was her most successful single until 'The Fear' came out, which I think was in turn surpassed by 'Somewhere Only We Know', fortunately or not. 6 - F**k You (7.94) yFE6qQ3ySXE Queens of the night: 11 (american oxygen.), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, Joe., 'Dan, andreweenor, Liam, Nick F1, Dobbo, Fgiboy2511, troublepink) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: -1 (DJHazey, ketalina) Now I can't remember for sure if this was ever properly released in the UK (I think it had a digital EP?), but what I know is that it managed to sell over 100k copies in the UK despite only peaking at 104! Astonishing. 'F**k You' was Lily's third international single from INMIY. It is her third Billboard hit and managed to go Gold in 6 countries according to the much reliable Wikipedia. Unfortunately, we never got a proper video with Lily on it, but the one we did get is a bit fun and better than nothing, I suppose. 5 - Not Fair (8.16) 5Qa28ZrHPcc Queens of the night: 11 (rob_s, Davidson), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, Joe., Nick F1, DJHazey, Aaron.) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: -1 (mr_aly), 4 (Jonjo) Another one of Lily's biggest hits, 'Not Fair' ends up fifth in this rate and thus matches its peak in the UK Singles Chart. The 7" picture disc is accompanied by one of my favourite b-sides, 'Why'. Check it out if you haven't! 4 - 22 (8.19) tWjNFC-FinU Queens of the night: 11 (andreweenor, Josh.), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, Mackenzie, Heezus Froot, Noahspike) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: 4 (Fgiboy2511), 5 (Aaron.) Words cannot express the love I feel for this song. It's in my top 5 all time favourite Lily songs and one of five INMIY tracks I used to OBSESS over and have on repeat for days, the others being Everyone's at It, The Fear, Back to the Start and He Wasn't There. What a lot of people don't know is that it was released in France as a duet with French singer-songwriter Ours and it's rather cute.

10 - True Love (6.98) zsmUOdmm02A F**kin' Perfect: 11 (troublepink), 10 (Ultraviolence1989, andreweenor, Heezus Froot) Stupid Girls: 0 (Griff, Aled., Fgiboy2511) 'True Love', produced by the amazing Greg Kurstin, is the fourth single taken from P!nk's 2012 album 'The Truth About Love' and Lily's first song in just over 2 years. Initially credited as 'Lily Rose Cooper', Lily & her label came to their senses and changed it back to 'Lily Allen' for its 2013 single release. The song (as well as its video) is so fun and heartwarming that it breaks my heart to see it get some hate over at the P!nk forum. It did, however, unexpectedly manage to sneak inside the top 10 in this rate, which is more than everyone expected, I think! 9 - Our Time (7.13) pfACIxjsuu0 Queens of the night: 10 (DJHazey), 9 (Josh., Aaron.) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: 4 (Acidburn), 5 ('Dan, Davidson, Chez Wombat) 'Our Time' only gets a 10 and two 9s, but that's apparently more than enough for a top 10 place in this rate. The song dropped a week after 'Air Balloon' and despite being far more well received than its predecessor, it only peaked just outside the top 40 at #43. You'd think they'd learned their lesson with 'Hard Out Here' barely making it top 10, but no, they didn't. 8 - Littlest Things (7.23) LQ2qDtaeFnY Queens of the night: 10 (andreweenor, Liаm, Slick, troublepink) It's not fair and I think you're really mean: 2 (rob _s), 4 (Griff) I think this is the first Lily song I heard before immediately getting 'Alright, Still'. It hasn't aged that well for me, but I still love the sample and the music video. Up next is a bit of a shocker.

What she needs is a bonus b-sides disc as she has a lot of great ones :wub:

Anastacia - Ultimate Collection
I think the better news is that she's back with Sony. Pieces of a Dream was pretty much flawless and this can't possibly top it. It had all of her singles (bar Boom & Love Is a Crime) in chronological order plus 4 brilliant new tracks, a megamix and a bonus remix disc (which I've never played more than once, but it's nice to have) and all this in a gorgeous package.

Round 6: Doctor Who Companions • Least Favourite
She was plain weird during her first few episodes when she flirted with the Doctor and completely ignored Rory, but she turned it around in the second half of Series 5. And not sure what you mean she made a comeback as she hadn't left until her farewell episode (7x05) and hasn't comeback since?
