So happy for Cat Burns and Lost Frequencies. But shocked for Overseas and BOTA. And Lewis Capaldi Someone You Loved just won't leave. Isn't this the fourth year

Nice to see Clash by Dave & Stormzy still in the chart. Bro, even if it may not see another year in this chart, I'm more than happy it spent a second year in the chart. But if this is here, where is "Obsessed With You"???

"Doja" got done dirty, seeing it's chart success this year. To be fair though, it acred fast, that's all I can say. But 74???

We don't talk about Bruno and Starlight were the reasons Peru never got to number 1, and neither even made the top 10 on this chart. Interesting.

Starlight got robbed. It was hinted to be in the Top 10 all year.

Nice list, but why is Overseas so low??

The production was boring & there's way too much autotune on it! Plus, I've unfortunately never been the biggest fan of D Block Europe outside of 'Ferrari Horses' & 'UFO'. :/

'Starlight' at the top of the list! 😊

Gutted it didn't re-enter the weekly chart though. :/

Even though I'm not the biggest fan of 'As It Was', at least it denied 'Bad Habits' a second consecutive year at the top! 😅

Lmao 35 songs in the Top 100 appeared on a previous End Of Year chart! 😭

I'm not really bothered about the songs from last year since most of them were released mid-late 2021, or even the one or two songs from 2020 since they're fading out anyway, but the Xmas songs and older songs are filling up space that don't represent the year purely just because they're streamed more consistently. It's hard to monitor what songs to remove from a 'year end list' especially since songs like RUTH would be eliminated, but we surely should have a rule to ban Xmas songs (the only exception are ones that were created or even first charted this year) since they're not representative of the year.

Idk I didn't really mind any Christmas songs appearing the list since they're for a few weeks every year, but it's kind of annoying that songs like 'Bad Habits' or 'Heat Waves' stuck around for months & ended up in the Top 10 in consecutive End Of Year lists.

Heck, if it weren't for 'As It Was', 'Bad Habits' would've been the biggest song in two consecutive years! 😩

Hopefully the year ahead will have a bit more movement in the weekly charts & that we have less songs stick around for so long, that's all. :)

'Seventeen Going Under' sneaking into the Top 10 is amazing to see! 😍

Sam Fender absolutely deserves it. :)
