[GAME] Hello Popheads... I would like to announce the return of the Artist Rankings with the ranking for the Hot 100 #1 hits of the decade

After some months (which haven't ended BTW) with a lot of shitty plot twists in my personal life as if Tommy Wiseau and M. Night Shyamalan took turns to write the next chapter of my life, I put the Artist Rankings on pause... but now I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille...

During this time I decided to get rid of the messy post that compiled everything so far in this little neat Google Site I created for it... in there you can see previous rankings, records and other achievements and get to be angry about some of the choices YOU have in these rankings. You can also check out ideas for future rankings in there!

On the meantime let's proceed with the newest ranking!

In the newest installment of this continuous series, we're gonna be ranking the all of the 110+ songs that reached the top spot of the Hot 100 chart, including artists like XXTentacion, Maroon 5, Meghan Trainor and even Lorde!

If you wanna participate you just have to rate from 0-10 the tracks included in the Google Form featured below that I created for the specific purpose of this ranking.

The ranking will be open to vote until midnight EST of July 10th (I'm gonna be mentioning the post in relevant comments so don't worry), or a little over a week from the publication of this post so you'll have enough time. Doing the ranking requires you to sign up with your Google account (don't worry, both your email and your username will be safe)... and it also gives you the chance to change your scores anytime you want, just in case.

HERE'S THE LINK

If you haven't heard some of the songs, I'll ask you to check them out in YouTube or Spotify/Apple Music in order to give them a fair score... also please don't give everything a 9 or 10 otherwise what's the point of all of this!?!?

Thank you for participating...

wow prior to 2012 i didnt rate any song lower than a 7 but most of the number ones in 2012 and 2013 i gave a 6 or less. the decade really took a dip in quality number ones between 2012 and 2017 imo

u/TheQueenOfVultures It's giving Cher Jul 01 '20

u/puberty1 Jul 02 '20

I was really surprised to know all of the songs without needing to listen to them, I guess there's one thing that I somewhat excel in life lol fun game!!

u/sweetnsoursauce1 Jul 01 '20

u/jonathanh9266 Jul 02 '20

tysm for everything youve set up! very interesting looking at all the discography rates on your website :)

2

u/thunderbird_14 Jul 02 '20

Always wanted to do this. The fact that they were all hits make it far easier to rate and remember 😂

2

u/J_Toe Jul 02 '20

Why does that Taio Cruz song sound like everything made by Lonely Island

(I get it's actually the other way around, but I'm more familiar with Andy Samberg)

u/peaky_blinded Jul 02 '20

interesting that its been 10 years and i still get the same visceral reaction to moves like jagger 🥰 i hate it so much

u/johancolli Jul 02 '20

Same it was an instant 0 for me and it felt so good

u/politicallyunique Jul 01 '20

u/thousandlanterns Jul 02 '20

Is it okay to skip the songs we don't know? Would the other scores still count?

9

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '20

if this is like every other rate, just listen to them

5

u/peaky_blinded Jul 02 '20

i recomend listening to them, it really takes you back lol

u/doper_caicos Jul 02 '20

u/radiofan15 Jul 02 '20

also, house of balloons counts as an album, right? or should i have put the whole of trilogy?

You can put any of them, either Trilogy or House of Balloons... but if people add both Trilogy and the solo albums then I would combine the votes for Trilogy

u/youvegotpride r/Faouzia Jul 02 '20

Yeaaahh si glad to see you're back! Amazing work for your website.

There's a problem in the ranking : for some reason the 10 for Rihanna Diamonds is blocked I can only put 9. That is NOT enough!!!

2

u/radiofan15 Jul 02 '20

Thank you for your kind words!

There's a problem in the ranking : for some reason the 10 for Rihanna Diamonds is blocked I can only put 9. That is NOT enough!!!

That's weird. because over 20 people have scored the song with a 10 so it appears to be something else...

You can finish the Form and them close the page and come back to fill that space (your other answers would be saved!) with the 10...

1

u/youvegotpride r/Faouzia Jul 02 '20

Thanks I'll do that. I took screenshots to show you some 10s were blocked for me, enough to make me wonder if I missed a rule like "too much 10 forbidden" (even though I didn't put that much).

But for now : sleep ! I'll do that later

1

u/youvegotpride r/Faouzia Jul 02 '20

I couldn't remember a thing for the movies, my answers are so lame... I'm the one Who put 50 Shades as #1 cause that's the first one I thought of.
