poptimistsThe hairy cornflake returns with Nos. 20-11 of your favourite tracks of the year.
20. GIRLS ALOUD - "The Promise"
Perhaps a lower-than-expected showing for perennial Poptimist darlings GA - their retro-themed video is not embeddable.
17=. MARIA DANIELA Y SU SONIDO LASSER - "Duri Duri"
This year the chart's been particularly good for niche enthusiasms getting a welcome shot of publicity. Here's sometime Podcast Panellists MDYSSL with some very bouncy pop.
17=. LILY ALLEN - "The Fear"
It's not even out yet! Though, unlike Cassie, it will be.
17=. KLEERUP ft MARIT BERGMAN - "3AM"
It's not just Robyn who gets to voice moody Kleerup tracks you know.
16. BEYONCE - "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)"
If you liked it then you should have embedded it.
15. ALPHABEAT - "Fascination"
Sign of the music biz times (if true): Alphabeat have apparently been dropped by their UK label because their FIFTH single off their album flopped. Remember them this way! (NB the Bimbo Jones remix picked up a fraction of the points here).
14. RIHANNA - "Disturbia"
Last year's runaway winner makes a decent showing again.
13. HOT CHIP - "Ready For The Floor"
They really are trying to look like Buggles in this video, aren't they?
12. SOLANGE - "Sandcastle Disco"
Solange Knowles outpolls her sister, even if she hasn't outsold her.
11. KANYE WEST - "Love Lockdown"
Non-embeddable warriors! Kanye might feel hard done by here to be honest since SEVEN different people voted for this. If we were doing it solely on mentions he'd be at #5.
What powerhouse kept him out of the Top 10? Check back tomorrow when ALL will be REVEALED (and then at the weekend for the monster list of everything).
