Top 50 Singles: 40-31
Continuing our countdown...
40 The View - Tacky Tattoo
39 Waylayers - Magnets
Sum up the single in one sentence...
A song that both your granny, and Nathan Barley would like.
What is the funniest feedback you have received for the single?
Lots of people have commented jovially on the 'floating balls' we have in the video...
What is the worst feedback you received?
That we are wasting our time.
What are your own thoughts..
We think it pushes all the right buttons you know... big euphoric, emotive and meaningful. It's sort of like a "dancing with tears" in my eyes track by Ultravox.
38 El Perro Del Mar - Walk On By
37 Rudimental ft. John Newman - Feel The Love
36 Anggun - Echo (You And I)
35 Jessica Clemmons - Beautiful
Sum up the single in one sentence...
Beautiful is my message to anyone, male or female, who do not feel that they fit in to they are society's definition of beauty.
What is the funniest feedback you have received for the single?
A well known Radio Two presenter said that he loved my voice - but as I look a little like Adele (I do?)... The music should sound more like hers!
What is the worst feedback you received?
I haven't had a lot of bad feedback about "Beautiful" (thankfully) but someone did say that the chorus was a little cheesy! Well I say ain't nothing wrong with that!!
What are your own thoughts...
I wrote this song in the hopes of sending a very positive message out there. With so much pop music being played that doesn't have uplifting lyrics or really anything good to say, I thought it was important to change the conversation a bit.
34 Bastille - Flaws
33 Kylie - Flower
32 Cornelia - Stormy Weather
Sum up the single in one sentence...
That time in a relationship when waving the white flag is the only right thing to do.
What is the funniest feedback you have received for the single?
My friend who trades analogue synths and only really listens to really obscure and geeky electronica called me up in the middle of the night bellying 'I just listened to Stormy Weather. You found it Cornelia, you got your sound nailed! I fucking love it.' It made me chuckle that he was really into it.
What is the worst feedback you received?
When I put my microphone really close to the speaker and everything went eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Har har
What are your own thoughts...
Waiting out the storm is something I've learned to do after a long time running.
31 One Direction - Little Things
