Ok eliminations.
Titanium is amazing. But not upset seeing it go
Can't Fight The Moonlight is great.. but like someone said, it lacks that something
Telephone... that was the last Gaga video I enjoyed, everything that followed was too mental to enjoy.
Survivor... my mom loves that song... but I find a little annoying, cause it's too repetitive

Yeah, BTMYH and OIDIA can leave.  Top 30 is good enough for them.

28. Britney Spears- Born To Make You Happy (7.645)
Highest score: 10 x12 (backtoback, supaspaz, Green, JDella11, Cassiopeia, adrianbeane, airbornE, Regina George, berberocka, Chemist, Soma80, keshaspearsxo)
Lowest score: 0 x1 (superben)
An unflattering photo of Britney:
And the first ever female-fronted song to hit the UK #1 in the 21st Century and new millennium is outta here! The song actually had to be re-written. To start with, it was quite a sexual and provocative piece. But back when she had creative control and a functioning part of her brain, Britto demanded the song be altered. Her team agreed; a main objective of theirs being that the album should be marketed to a teen audience. It's her 6th best-selling song ever in the UK, with around 325,000 copies sold. Copies of Radar remain decomposing on a shelf in your local motorway service station.
Jinzo's verdict: 9
I know if Great Username is watching on a distant star, there will be FUMES emanating. I agree totally with his stance- its lyrics are so intelligent, so ahead of her time and her then-status in the pop world. It delivers complex emotion, a sentiment of wanting to give your everything, rather than just wanting to rub your p*ssy onto the nearest p*nis.

I really like the vibe of this song. But maybe I should've rated it a little lower. Should've known Britney songs always end high.

27. Christina Aguilera, Pink, Mya and Lil Kim ft. Missy Elliot- Lady Marmalade (7.658)
Highest score: 10 x13 (Stevie, backtoback, Strangergab, Glassheart, conseeded, airbornE, boyamama, VJoker, Flashing Lights, CrazyCat, keshaspearsxo, Konichiwa, Ace Reject)
Lowest score: 0 x1 (Mandarke)
One for all 5? Okay:
This is by no means an original piece of work. It was first a #1 in 1974 for girlgroup Labelle. featuring the one, the only, Patti LaBelle from Got 2 B Real. Then, some Italian bitch called Sabrina did it in 1988. It got to #41 in France. Then, the empresses of the girlgroup world, All Saints, had this cover on a double A-side with Under the Bridge (which you might know as a cover of Red Hot Chilli Peppers), which reached UK #1; proceeds going to charity. Then, ultimately, in one tiresome slog, Christina A-gorilla completely ruins everything with god-awful shouty-singing. But it went #1, meaning Lil Kim has more #1s to her name than Nicki Minaj.
However, the main question on everyone's minds; who is Mya?
Jinzo's verdict: 2.5
A doggone mess. Everything is far too over-the-top, the four do not gel together at all. The video is an atrocity and by no means a fitting homage to an absolute classic of a film.

26. Sugababes- Push The Button (7.816)
Highest score: 10 x15 (Stevie, madonnas, Mandarke, Green, JDella11, superben, adrianbeane, Sporefan, berberocka, boyamama, VJoker, Chemist, Dream, MP2K, Ace Reject)
Lowest score: 1 x3 (Strangergab, jqnetto, classicmainstream)
All 3? It would be a fitting send-off:
And that's game, set and match for all the UK #1s of British girlgroups.
Keisha says of the song's story:
"I really liked this guy, so I'd be like, there's this good movie coming out, you know, dropping hints. And he'd be like, that movie sounds great, let me know what it's like if you go see it. I knew he liked me too but he just wasn't getting what I was trying to say. And Dallas (Austin, producer) was teasing me, saying, you've got to tell him to push that button or you're moving on"
So, it's essentially about being a wh*re.
It also made elevators (or as we call it in the UK, a "lift") sexy. Don't tell me you haven't pretending you were doing the Push the Button video things in a lift at least once in your life. Try it tomorrow. You'll feel a lot better.
They also "did a Keri" and promoted at Ikea:

Jinzo's verdict: 8
Just straight out good. A shame to see it leave, but I had absolutely no idea it would make it the furthest out of all the girlgroup singles. Poor Freak Like Me...

I gave it a 10, but it's sad to see this so far ahead of SOTU.

Sad face.
Not the best Suga song in this rate. Let ALONE a girlgroup song. But I'm not complaining.
