jesus. What's My Name by FAR, even with the shitness of Drake.

JamieSummers, Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:18 (twelve years ago) link

it's between "give me everything" and "on the floor" by some distance. "don't hold your breath" is the only other no 1 this year of any particular merit.

multiple no 1s for olly murs. whyyyyyy ;_;

ban charity singles obv

degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link

then probably Kesha or J Lopez. a bad year for no 1s for sure.

JamieSummers, Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link

i say this every year but i do think this list is possibly the most wretched in the history of the charts

degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link

voted LMFAO. Christ almighty what a selection

sup, Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:24 (twelve years ago) link

Think I'm voting Cher Lloyd soley bcuz I like the album even tho that's the worst track on it?

Kurun a Spern (Fotherington Thomas), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:31 (twelve years ago) link

Can't we have a 'damn kids, get off my lawn' option, because I'm not really feeling any of these?

yup cher lloyd def made the best music this year out of anyone on this list. i can never decide which my actual favourite is though! maybe "superhero"?

degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:40 (twelve years ago) link

"swagger jagger" is just no though.

degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:40 (twelve years ago) link

Question: if Olly's had two #1's this year, why does it still look like his career is on the skids?

In other news: worldwide MJpopcorn.gif shortage (snoball), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link

I knew you'd never speak to me again if I voted for "We Found Socks In A Hopeless Place"

Kurun a Spern (Fotherington Thomas), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:50 (twelve years ago) link

i spoke to someone recently who thought the lyric was "we found love in a homeless place" :(

degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Sunday, 1 January 2012 16:59 (twelve years ago) link

party rock anthem

є(٥_ ٥)э, Sunday, 1 January 2012 18:54 (twelve years ago) link

I had no idea Loca People got to no.1.

We R Who We R, though.

If you did that to me in Turkey, i'd have to kill you (ShariVari), Sunday, 1 January 2012 19:08 (twelve years ago) link

EVERYDAY I'M SHUFFLIN

dark side of the goon (furnace mane), Sunday, 1 January 2012 21:24 (twelve years ago) link

I went for We Found Love which is probably the only song on the list I love.

Agree with the comments about Cher Lloyd, really like her and the album is great but Swagger Jagger is just one awful single.

Kitchen Person, Sunday, 1 January 2012 21:39 (twelve years ago) link

the first quarter of this list is pretty decent -- after that it goes off the rails fucking fast

How many days after a period? Started by Tuomas in December 2011 (v-shasty), Sunday, 1 January 2012 22:05 (twelve years ago) link

Example, maybe? Dunno, just all seems like lexmusic to me. (oh-oh-eh-oh don't tread on a lex etc)

aldo, Sunday, 1 January 2012 22:35 (twelve years ago) link

K$, though i really like that wretch 32 song

a collection of gruff, big-balled boasts (zachylon), Sunday, 1 January 2012 23:32 (twelve years ago) link

i only recognise two of these from their names

judith, Sunday, 1 January 2012 23:57 (twelve years ago) link

Loka People, along with Avicii's "Levels", Afrojack's "Take Over Control" and Sidney Samson's "Dynamite", are all songs I've heard three times in one night (the same night!) at the local high-street girls-in-stilettos club. My cousins who are really into this stuff along with Swedish House Mafia etc think of the Ministry Of Sound as their Now! compilation equivalent and these tracks are absolutely massive in that scene. I think of Loka People as the equivalent of a 90s holiday novelty song now in the sense it was "brought back" from their Magaluf/Ibiza holidays. I do like the "Johnny my fanta tastes like cola wtf" bit though.

There is so much shit on this list though. Jessie J, if it isn't about the "money money money" why do you need to charge charge charge you hypocritical knob? Rihanna or Ke$ha I guess.

LOVE "on the floor" and "give me everything"
somewhat enjoy "glad you came", "swagger jagger", "we found love", "what makes you beautiful" and "changed the way you kiss me"
