    Black Eyed Peas:
    Meet Me Halfway
    [The END]

    75 (66) Black Eyed Peas – Meet Me Halfway

    Meh.

    Cheryl Cole:
    Fight For This Love
    [3 Words]

    73 (65) Cheryl Cole – Fight For This Loves

    Fight for this love? Erm… she’s just split from Cashley Cole!

    Paul Weller: Wake The Nation
    [Wake Up the Nation]

    67 (26) Paul Weller – Wake Up The Nation/No Tears To Cry

    It’s the Modfather’s latest work, but after seeing his performance on Jools Holland’s show, I’m far from impressed. In fact, it’s downright dull!

    Black Eyed Peas:
    I Gotta Feeling
    [The END]

    54 (54) Black Eyed Peas – I Gotta Feeling

    Hmm… starts off tedious and repetitive… and just gets worse from there.

    “Let’s do it, let’s do it, let’s do it, do it, do it.” No, let’s not.

    Iyaz: Replay

    58 (50) Iyaz – Replay

    Mediocre pretty-boy pop.

    Lady Gaga: Bad Romance
    [The Fame Monster]

    40 (35) Lady Gaga – Bad Romance *2nd week at No.1*

    Ridiculous video. Ridiculous song. What a load of junk.

    Owl City: Fireflies
    [Ocean Eyes]

    29 (24) Owl City – Fireflies

    Autotuned all the way up its own ass, the end result isn’t bad but it isn’t going to win any awards, either.

    Jason Derulo: In My Head
    [Jason Derulo]

    24 (20) Jason Derulo – In My Head

    Usual dance-pop bland nonsense from a man so insecure he even has to sing his own name at the start of the song.

    Tinie Tempah: Pass Out

    13 (9) Tinie Tempah: Pass Out

    Who the fuck is buying this shitty pop song?

    Lady Gaga: Telephone
    [Fame Monster]

    11 (6) Lady Gaga – Telephone

    Lady Gaga wears not a lot and it’s a very humdrum song as pop tracks go. Pass.

    Scouting For Girls:
    This Ain’t A Love Song
    [Everybody…]

    5 (2) Scouting For Girls – This Ain’t a Love Song

    T.D.ous… zzzzz….

    Usher: OMG
    [Raymond Vs Raymond]

    2 (1) Usher – OMG

    Dull pop-rap by numbers. Very monotonous too.

    Diana Vickers: Once
    [Songs From The Tainted Cherry Tree]

    1 Diana Vickers – Once *1st week at No.1*

    Quite a surprise from an X-Factor also-ran, this is actually an engaging little pop tune. Although why she would stilllet a wrong ‘un hurt her once is anyone’s guess.
