Alexandra Burke ft. Pitbull - All Night Long......went to #1 in Ireland and was #1 in the UK midweeks but ended up at #4. Such a great summer tune imo.

Lady Gaga - Born This Way - It made #3 with only two days on sale in it's first week, it would have quite easily been #1 if it had had the full 7. Quite easily indeed.

A classic pub quiz question!
Which song famously kept this 80s classic off No1 ?

agree with the ones bolded.

Lady Gaga - Born this Way, You and I, Marry the Night.
idk i just really liked them
Emeli Sande, Next to Me. Well there's hopefully time yet but only being second place to the most mediocre song in the charts at the minute?
Michael Jackson - Man in the Mirror. Cascada just havent sounded the same since

The Veronicas - Untouched. It went #1 in Ireland and top 10 in UK but it should have went higher. The instrumental is always used on tv shows too.

I'm not a Coldplay fan at all, but I do think that 'Speed Of Sound' should've been no.1 instead of The Crazy Frog.
Pulp's 'Common People' should've been no.1 instead of the Out Here Brothers
Right Said Fred's 'I'm Too Sexy' should've knocked Bryan Adams off the no.1 spot!!
