No snobbery here about re-releases not being "proper" hits then, as "Stand By Me" follows "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" as the second entry to make Number One purely on the basis of a re-release.

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-groov.jpg

didn't want to stain it with needless comments

Incidentally... there were 48 sets of votes in all, and 556 singles received at least one vote.

"Groovejet" is a lot lower than I thought it would have been.

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-vogue.jpg

omg, I thought "Vogue" would be a dead cert for the top 10 :(

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-witho.jpg

Delighted to see this one here, meaning that Mariah Carey hasn't wrought it permanent damage after all. (Or maybe Carey's version will poll higher? I'm saying nothing!)

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-99red.jpg

(Nah, never mind maintaining the "purity" of the thread; in this post-Wes age, interruptions are almost de rigeur.)

The fourth Beatles hit so far. How many more will there be? Or will this be their highest?

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-ifeelf.jpg

The fifth Beatles hit so far. How many more will there be? Or will this be their highest?

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-water.jpg

let us hope so!

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-dontl.jpg

Voted in first place by two individuals, this shows that Oasis maybe aren't the pariahs of ILM after all...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-sound.jpg

Reality TV singles not all rubbish after all SHOCKAH.

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-brimf.jpg

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-sunai.jpg

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-hardd.jpg

Sixth entry for The Beatles, but WILL THERE BE MORE?

Ah, love was out to get to me, now that's the way it seemed, disappointment haunted all my dreams...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-imabe.jpg

Rows and rows of disused milk floats stand dying in the dairy yard, and a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-townc.jpg

(Highest individual vote: #4, beating I'm A Believer's top score of #8.)

She said you hurt her so, she almost lost her mind, but now she says she knows you're not the hurting kind...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-shelo.jpg

The SEVENTH entry for The Beatles. You had NO IDEA, right?

All I know is that to me, you look like you're lots of fun, open up your lovin' arms, watch out, here I come...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-yousp.jpg

When you're down and out, when you're on the street, when evening falls so hard, I will comfort you...

I keep your picture upon the wall, it hides a nasty stain that's lying there...

But first... a toilet break. (I don't have Wes's bladder control. It's a middle aged thing.)

oh my sides!

Lyric excerpts lovely too.

Lest we forget, this is Margaret Thatcher's favourite pop record of ALL TIME.

53. Toxic - Britney Spears (13/03/04)
291 points, 15 votes

It's getting late to give it up, I took a sip from my devil's cup, slowly it's taking over me...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-toxic.jpg

For the first half of the voting, this looked like it was going to miss the Top 100 completely. Note the higher number of voters (15)... the highest vote that this received was #13.

Well, I stand up next to a mountain, and I chop it down with the edge of my hand...

My loneliness is killing me, and I must confess I still believe, when I'm not with you I lose my mind, give me a sign...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-babyo.jpg

There's a man outside in a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-arefr.jpg

Another one that stayed outside the 100 for ages before rallying in the second half. If there's any pattern, then I'd say that Pop Kids voted first, Boomers in the middle, then another clutch of Pop Kids towards the end.

32. Under Pressure - Queen & David Bowie (21/11/81)
379 points, 10 votes

Turned away from it all like a blind man, sat on a fence but it don't work, keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn, why, why, WHY...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-under.jpg

Of the 10 votes this received, 7 placed it in their Top 10.

And if the way I hold you can't compare to his caress, no words of consolation will make me miss you less...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-makeit.jpg

Good showing for the Walker Brothers, whose other hit placed at #62.

30. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen (29/11/75, 21/12/91
)
398 points, 13 votes

He's just a poor boy from a poor family, spare him his life from this monstrosity...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-bohem.jpg

As the 1991 double A-side with "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" only polled one vote, I decided to combine the two, meaning that there was a total pool of 996 singles. (My Sweet Lord, Jailhouse Rock and One Night also made #1 twice apiece.)

And now just look at me as I'm looking down on you, no I'm not being flash, it's what I'm built to do...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-geno.jpg

Let me lay it on the line, I got a little freakiness inside, and you know that a man has gotta feel with it...

But shoot it in the right direction, make making it your intention...

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes, I have to turn my head until my darkness goes...

I'll be there to always see you through, I'll be there to love and comfort you...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-reach.jpg

This was Top Five in the early stages, before slowly slipping.

We kissed after taking vows, but that night on our honeymoon we stayed in separate rooms...

There's a dark secret in me, don't leave me locked in your heart, set me free...

20. Crazy In Love - Beyoncé (12/07/03)
477 points, 18 votes

Tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress; you ain't there, ain't nobody else to impress...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-crazy.jpg

Between the two of us guys, you know I loved you more...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-ihear.jpg

Put the needle on the record, when the song beats go like this...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-pumpu.jpg

ILM, I kiss you for this.

Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want, I can see whomever I choose; I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant, but nothing, I said nothing, can take away these blues...

Love is all I bring, inna me khaki suit and ting...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-uptow.jpg

Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free, at night I lock the doors, where no one else can see...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-intot.jpg

Sippin' on coke and rum, I'm like so what I'm drunk, it's the freakin' weekend baby, I'm about to have me some fun...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-ignit.jpg

Tonight make it magnificent, tonight, make me tonight...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-atomi.jpg

From this point on, you'll start to see noticeably bigger jumps in the number of points. The Number One got nearly twice the number of points than this.

The five years we have had have been such good times, I still love you, but now I think it's time I lived my life on my own, I guess it's just what I must do...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-donty.jpg

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on, leave them burning and then you're gone...

10 The Model / Computer Love - Kraftwerk (06/02/82)
657 points, 20 votes

She plays hard to get, she smiles from time to time, it only takes a camera to change her mind...

Can I just say: where are all the electric guitars?

Little things I should’ve said and done, I never took the time...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-alway.jpg

You've got a heart of glass or a heart of stone, just you wait 'til I get you home...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-weste.jpg

Bloody hell! It's two in a row!

Don't touch me please, I cannot stand the way you tease...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-taint.jpg

The second cover version in the Top 10, and the highest placed song to score no #1 votes from anybody.

The Model: 1.
Always On My Mind: 2
West End Girls: 0 (highest: 3)
Tainted Love: 0 (highest: 2)

You had a temper like my jealousy: too hot, too greedy...

http://troubled-diva.com/ilm/i-wuther.jpg

An early runaway winner, this spent most of its time in the Top Three before dropping in the last two or three days.

Once I had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out to be a pain in the ass...

And mother always told me be careful of who you love, and be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth...

Ooh, fallin' free, fallin' free, fallin' free, fallin' free, fallin' free...

Bands won't play no more, too much fighting on the dancefloor...

Has to be the ultimate pop song as epic, surely. It has everything.
- David Merryweather

Nothing the Beatles did could touch "Good Vibrations" or "Heroes & Villians" (well, maybe "She Said...").
- Mark @ pitchforkmedia

I always thought that "Good Vibrations" was the most expensive single ever (inflation taken into account). At least at the time it was I think. Brian Wilson spent several months and about 5 studios on it. Plenty of takes and orchestration and the theremin...
- Tim Baier

How is good vibrations NOT a novelty song? It's built around a catch phrase of the day and a cameo by a wacky instrument.
- fritz wollner

I always thought the theremin in Good Vibrations was the best part of the song.
- Carey

Every few months I walk past a certain building and am convinced that someone is blasting Good Vibrations out of an upstairs window, but it's an air conditioner that does a startling mimic of a theremin.
- holojames

i discovered via the magic of remastering that the tape edits in "good vibrations" are painfully noticeable.
- fact checking cuz
I hate that first one sometimes, right when "I'm picking up good vibrations" comes in. You don't even need a remastered version to hear it. It's pretty bad.
- maypang
that's what you get for mixing while tripping.
- fact checking cuz

The bit in Good Vibrations after the bridge just before they go "AAAAAAAAAH!" is the thickest bit of silent air ever recorded.
- dog latin

I hate the end of ‘Good Vibrations’; there’s a real quick fade-out (less than two seconds, probably) just when the theremin gets going.
- Orange

I've never thought Mike Love was that great of a singer. Way too nasaly, almost sardonic and apathetic. Listen to "Good Vibrations". It starts off so good until you get to Love's "I'm picking up good vibrations..." I picture him singing that part with his arms folded, eyes rolled, and foot tapping outside of the beat. Kill him by drowning him in Sunkist.
- Pleasant Plains

I have to do a presentation tomorrow on the influence of "Be My Baby" on subsequent musicians and producers. The only examples I've got so far are The Jesus and Mary Chain's "Just Like Honey", The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" and something off Loveless. Anyone got any ideas?
- OCP

"Good Vibrations"! It's the greatest song ever written called "Good Vibrations"! Apart from the other one!
- Marcello Carlin (talking about Marky Mark & the Funky Bunch)

Or 'Good Vibrations'. One of those three!

None of Geri Halliwell's 4 #1 hits polled a single vote.

Awesome that this was the highest.

No hits from 1992-1996 charted in the top 100. Other than that, at least one hit per year featured from 1962 to 2004.

Top years: 1966 and 1980, each with six entries.

Glad to see three others voted for "Mouldy Old Dough", but sad not to see "Float On" or "Pass the Dutchie" in there.

I'm rather surprised that "Coz I Love You" wasn't the highest Slade one; it's stupendous.

Hits of Take That:
244 Back For Good (72,5) - for me, the low placing for this was one of the major shockers.
271 Relight My Fire (60,2)
391 Never Forget (30,1)
408 Everything Changes (27,1)
Zero: Babe, How Deep Is Your Love, Pray, Sure.

(Also amazed that Pray scored zero.)

The next oldest:
250. Secret Love - Doris Day (16/04/54) 69 points, 2 votes

The newest song to poll, excluding Jailhouse Rock:
341. I'll Stand By You - Girls Aloud (27/11/04) 41 points, 2 votes

Followed by:
488. Vertigo - U2 (20/11/2004) 13 points, 1 vote

Best placing for 1992:
280. Would I Lie To You? - Charles & Eddie (57,2)

Best placing for 1993:
271. Relight Me Fire - Take That featuring Lulu (60,2)

Best placing for 1994:
245. Let Me Be Your Fantasy - Baby D (72,3)

Best placing for 1995:
127. Some Might Say - Oasis (150,5)

Best placing for 1996:
126. Setting Sun - Chemical Brothers (151,6)

If we'd done the poll one week later "Goodies" could have been a pretty big factor...

I'm surprised at the low placing of Baby D. I always thought ILM had much love for early 90s dance.

Agreed. I also can't help but feel that "Goodies" is actually the 997th Number One, and that we've got 3 more to go.

It would've been at least No 5 on my list, top 3 if I was in the right mood.

Fuck's sake...

Madness had loads of top ten hits but only one number one, I think.

Oh, fairly boring I'm afraid:

1. Good Vibrations (3)

2. Ghost Town, Billie Jean, Wuthering Heights, Always On My Mind, Dancing Queen, Atomic, Uptown Top Ranking, Band Of Gold, Don't Look Back In Anger (2)

11. I Feel Love, The Model, Into The Groove, I Heard It Through The Grapevine, Can't Get You Out Of My Head, Paint It Black, Under Pressure, Come On Eileen, Ticket To Ride, Tears Of A Clown, It's Over, I Feel Fine, Paperback Writer, Telegram Sam, Maggie May, My Sweet Lord, Pure Shores, Name Of The Game, Yes Sir I Can Boogie, I Feel For You, Dub Be Good To Me, Setting Sun, Born To Make You Happy, Rock Me Amadeus, Super Trouper, Glad All Over, The Final Countdown, Unchained Melody (Gareth Gates) (1)

1. Name Of The Game - Abba (#103)
2. You've Lost That Loving Feeling - Righteous Brothers (#109)
3. Good Vibrations - Beach Boys (#1)
4. Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel (#56)
5. Band Of Gold - Freda Payne (#22)

Whoo! There I was thinking I was a boring consensualist (my top four - in the top five) but I voted for both of these.

Tell you what... here's the whole final scoreboard. Note that I haven't bothered re-arranging tied positions below the Top 200, so positions beyond that are approximate only.

Right. Who did this?

I placed it at #23. I LOVE IT!

This poll is super. Except that I funked it up. Look at these five amazing tracks I passed over by doing it quick so as not to spend all evening on the thing:

I Feel Love - Donna Summer
Sound Of The Underground - Girls Aloud
Voodoo Chile - Jimi Hendrix Experience
I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Marvin Gaye
Ticket To Ride - The Beatles

I still would have kept Do You Really Like It?, mind.

Unchained Melody (Gareth Gates) (1)

I'll own up. It's the only single I've ever bought two copies of, the first I ever bought on the day of release, and if you are mean about it I will mope and look crushed at you.

One of them being mine...

Also, I thought I voted for Moon River, but maybe it got chopped to make way for..err... The New Seekers.

Nice to see Fern Kinney in the top 200. Just.

Mike, did my vote get to you? Would have come from "Ian"??

I amazed at the songs I apparently overlooked, too, but as it turns out that didn't matter.

Hmm, don't remember this one, I thought.

Then I checked through it very rapidly, and decided it was familiar after all.

Except, looking again, I've realised that it slipped through the net - not having shown up on my webmail for some reason. (Or maybe I just missed it.)

Many apologies for that... and I do assure you that everyone else's e-mails WERE counted.

So... feeding Hobart's votes in, let's do an update. Back in a bit.

There. Let that be an end to it. My work is done.

I've had to remove all the images and the spreadsheet. Bandwidth issues. Oh dear.
