The Chart-
10-Girls Aloud-the promise
Mixed feelings about this one, It's a bit to sweetie for my taste at the moment. Lovey-dovey is a better phrase. The lyrics are un-imaginative and pretty lame along with a boring tune. Not very impressive Girls.

9-Akon-right now (nananana)
Nice song, good beat, memorable lyrics although its nothing outstanding or that hasn't been done before. Following suit with his other songs with this one.

8-X-Factor finalists-hero
A huge achievement for members of the public to have come together through X-Factor and produce a song that's good enough for the top ten. Gone down from second place last week.
Personally I don't like the song and I don't think it should be in the top ten, maybe 20+. Other people must like it though, otherwise it wouldn't be in the top ten.

7-Britney Spears-womanizer
Not keen at all about this track whatsoever I think that it is boring and repetitive and that the beat is about as original as sliced bread. Pathetic attempt in my opinion, I honestly can't think of
anything good about this at all, apart from it might, just about, entertain a one and a half year old.

6-Alesha Dixon-the boy does nothing
When I heard this song first I was almost confused, I just couldn't make up my mind whether I liked it or not. In the end I decided that it wasn't likable nor was it dis-likable. It's average, it's mediocre.

5-Katy Perry-Hot 'n' Cold
This is the first of the top ten that I really like. This song uses catchy and memorable beats to draw the listener in and have then sub-consciously taking in the lyrics and tune. In the end you just keeping singing it over and over again until it drives you mad. On a scale of catchyness, 1
being lowest ten being highest, it would get a 12.5.

4-The Killers-human
Not keen on this song either, I find it to be only skin deep and easy to read. Almost completely
loses my interest after the first minute and ten seconds due to its snore factor. There's something about this song that makes me want to smash the radio, CD, MP3 or mobile that I hear it on.

3-Ti ft Rihanna-live your life
The one bright star coming from this weeks otherwise mediocre chart. This song has everything, a great beat, catchy tune, meaningful lyrics and excellent vocals from both Rihanna and Ti. They've even thrown in a bit of miaahee miaahoo miaahaha or good measure. I could listen to this song over and over again, it's brilliant. Definite recommendation from me here. Don't miss out!

2-Beyonce-if i were a boy
This song sends me to sleep, but not because its boring but because it could be used as a lullaby for babies to fall asleep to. A lovely tune to hear, a good phrase to use would be 'music to my ears'. Beautiful song.

1-Take that-greatest day
Nice tune, quite relaxing and peaceful. I think this one will be a Take That classic in a few years. I admire Take That for their unique sound and style that no one else seems able to do. Well deserved place at number one.
