By ranking them of course.  I recently passed the mark for having 100 different songs peak at #1. This is not based off of chart points, simply my personal feelings on the songs at this point in time. This list was horribly hard to order. I really do love all of these songs. After all, I'm ranking songs that were my "favourite song" at some point in time. All of these songs are great even if they are ranking low. Also remember, the more replies I get, the less youtube videos that will be on each page, reducing lag! So please reply if you have a comment; after all I won't see any likes [JOSHU]. Also unlike everyone else's countdowns, I do finish mine! So you won't be left hanging. ;) Here are artists with multiple #1s (including features) that will be ranked: 10 Entries: Rihanna 6 Entries: Flo Rida 5 Entries: Black Eyed Peas 4 Entries: Katy Perry Ke$ha Lady Gaga Taio Cruz 3 Entries: B.o.B. Britney Spears Foster The People Justin Bieber Kanye West Kelly Clarkson Nicki Minaj 2 Entries: Adam Lambert Beyoncé Bruno Mars Eminem Linkin Park Lolene Script T-Pain Taylor Swift Tinie Tempah #100Fast Forward (FFWD) - Jaicko - Can I The lyrics to this are very cute and have their own special charm. Very unfortunate for Jaicko that this never ended up taking off. It's a definite by-the-books pop song, and it's done well. It might be ranked as my lowest #1 song here, but that does not me that I dislike this in any way. This song is a jam! |

SORRY! I am still working on my comments for your #2s. I will try to do them throughout this one. I just don't know a lot/most of your songs that are #1 and 2. Like this one IDK it lol Well that is I provide the youtube videos. Since these are songs I like, I hope my posting intrigues at least a few extra people to listen to them so they get some more exposure. ;) But yeah, extra comments between my posts really do help get rid of some of the laggy stuff from youtube. So please comment if you're able (even if it's a "never heard it, just listened to the first 30 seconds, SUCKS"). <3 #99iYiYi ft. Flo Rida - Cody Simpson - 4 U This song holds the notorious title of shorted lived #1 on my chart, spending a mere six weeks on. In fact it's only one of five songs to go #1 and not make the ten week mark. Still even though it was a short-lived hit, it was really addicting for those few weeks. The Flo Rida segments definitely kept me entertained and I felt he did a good job with this track. |

Fast Forward- decent. Probably not something I would ever listen to, though. His voice sounds familiar to someone else... Ne-Yo? Taio? Akon? Chris Brown? Idk it just sounded familiar at some points lol.
iYiYi- meh. Don't care for it lol.

The song actually was released right when Iyaz's "Replay" was pretty big, I thought it was funny due to both of the titles being similar as well as the artists. (Replay vs Fast Forward)

Ugh. I HATE Replay. There goes my hopes of ever liking this song, now. |

I recently passed the mark for having 50 different songs peak at #1. Recently? Didn't that happen like two years ago? ;) I don't know #100 and don't care to listen to it. I once knew #99. It was okay for awhile, I guess, but I haven't listened to it since it was current. "Addicting" is not a real word.  |

1) It says it's non-standard out of the U.S., i.e. the majority of the world. 2) You say "favo urite" all the time, so why not be consistent with your British English usage? 3) It is listed as informal in the OED. Informal words ≠ words. 4) http:/www.addictinggames.com/ is hardly a reliable source. 5) Let me rephrase: it should not be a word. |

Language is what you make of it; I prefer an evolving language as opposed to the strict textbook language that halts the progression of society. #98Love Drunk - Boys Like Girls - Love Drunk This is a #1 from the very short period of time in the early life of my chart where I tried to make the #1 based on spins over the week. While I do like the song, it probably would have been a #2 or #3 hit under my more consistent methodologies of today. Still, I do like a good amount of the lyrics play in this song and the production is very fun. |

Thank you both.  #97Nothin' On You ft. Bruno Mars - B.o.B. - B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray This is a great example of a song that had a definitive throwback vibe at the time which aided in its success (of course, nowadays people like to call songs 'dated' when a throwback vibe helps distinguish the song). I definitely enjoyed this song a lot, but it just burned very quickly for me and is one of the other songs that spent less than ten weeks on my personal chart. Regardless, this is a great song and I'm happy that it was able to pave the way for a successful career for Bruno Mars. |

Lol. I never knew I knew Love Drunk. But the second it started I was like this is so familiar. Then the chorus and bam! I like it. :) Also Ashley Tisdale! lol
Like NOY as well, but moreso Bruno's part than B.o.B's part haha

"Nothin' On You" is amazing. It was one of my favorites in 2010 (hit #1 for me, actually) and I still absolutely love it. It just held up so well for me; it still sounds completely fresh today, which is something very rare for me. It's definitely B.o.B's best record, and while I really love several of Bruno's tracks, they've had horrible burn for me, unlike "Nothin' On You". Both artists just completely delivered on the song and it's because of "Nothin' On You" that I bothered to try both of their then-forthcoming debut albums, which were both fantastic. I still freak out inside every time I hear the song on the radio like I did back when it was new, but the station here that I usually hear it on plays that awful no rap edit which ruins the flow of the song, unfortunately. Better than no airplay, though! Basically, "Nothin' On You" is just perfect and I'm definitely going to remember it as one of the standout tracks of the last few years.

From memory, they play the chorus, skip forward to the first pre-chorus, play the chorus again, skip to the second pre-chorus, play the third verse, then play the chorus again one final time. The whole song is probably just two minutes in length, surprisingly they don't just loop the chorus over and over to disguise it as a full-length song. I'll try to record it or at least note down how it goes next time I hear it.

That station seems to avoid rap in general, but they do play Flo Rida, so I don't know why they feel the need to butcher "Nothin' On You", or why they even still play it in the first place.

There was a digital remixes EP for "Nothin' On You" which included a "Short Radio Edit". I wouldn't be surprised if that was the version which Slizzard is describing. #96You Can't Win - Kelly Clarkson - Stronger One of my favourite tracks from her newest album, this one of two which managed to go to #1 on my personal chart. However this did end up having a fairly significant burn rate, placing it low on this list. Regardless, this is a fun Kelly anthem with some classic production for her. |

Good song! On the lower end of plays from the album, though. Doesn't mean I don't like it, though. :)

Yeah, you seem to like the other half of the CD that I don't like that much. #95Troublemaker - Taio Cruz - TY.O Taio Cruz is definitely one of my core artists on my chart. This is his first of four entries. The lyrics to the verses and the bridge aren't anything special, but to me they are exactly what I want. "Your ass from the side looks just like a coke bottle." YES. I don't know why but that type of ridiculous lyric just works in this song. The explosive chorus of "oh"s is wonderful as well. I feel the only reason this is so low is due to its high burn rate. |

It's alright. Nothing special. That one chick looks like Jennifer Hudson, though.

Thanks for the comment. Looks like Slizzi has abandoned us already though. :'( #94Meet Me Halfway - Black Eyed Peas - The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies) One of many amazing tracks from this album. Black Eyed Peas definitely hit a home run with that era. This song was definitely a fan favourite at the time, and it was sad to see it underperform against the singles surrounding it. Despite that, this single was still a huge success and was one of the first from the album to hit #1 on my personal chart. Despite it having good longevity on my chart, I'm burnt on it which is why it is so low now. |

I don't comment when I don't know the song. LOVE "Meet Me Halfway". Wasn't a big fan at the time, but it's one of my favorite singles of theirs now. The video was amazing as well. <3 |

This was definitely one of my least favorite singles of the era. Definitely their best/biggest era, though. That year was just pure BEP domination, and I loved it. Still love BBP but can't stand IGF. But was never too big on IGF to begin with.
This song is just alright. There's just something about Fergie I don't really care for on this song, and I dunno what it is. Glad this song underperformed instead of a different single, though, imo.

Listen to the video I post and then comment about how it sucked and you only listened to the first five seconds then Slizzikins. :kii: Thanks for the comments both of you. #93California King Bed - Rihanna - LOUD Beautiful song with a beautiful video to go alongside it. The Middle Eight is really what hooked me from the start, and it was the album track that grabbed my attention the most at the time of the album release, even more than S&M and Cheers! However this song ends up ranking lower than the other #1s on my personal chart from LOUD as it did die down on me after a little while. Still this is a great ballad from Rihanna and I'm glad they wasted a single release on it. |

If five seconds is enough, then sure thing. ;)
Not a big fan of "California King Bed", but it's okay, I guess. The video was great. It was definitely the wrong single choice, in the U.S. at least, and I still wish "Complicated" had been released sometime, but whatever, she recovered fine. I'm tempted to say that it's better than "We Found Love".
