Its ready as usual at the beginning of December,beats the rush I say.
anyway heres the 3 songs that just miss the list
201 Brand New - Jesus
202 The Stills - Destroyer
203 Chemical Brothers – The Salmon Dance
Ok and a short pop quiz. One band has 5!!! songs in my top 30 of the year,there is one official chart number one in my top 30 and 2 bands who debuted in 2007 in my top 10.
3 points if you get the first question , 2 points for the 2nd and 5 points each if you get the debut bands hehe (1 is easyish the other a little obscure)

"beats the rush" maybe but I don't compile the chart of the year until the year is complete. However as your chart is usually a bit ahead of mine, I guess for you the year is complete already.
Anyway I will guess that the UK #1 in your top 30 of the year is "Ruby" by the Kaiser Chiefs. It could be Mika but I think Kaiser Chiefs is more likely, and I don't see anything else as conceivable at all.

I'm somewhere in between. I used to do my chart at the beginning of December because there never used to be anything good released in December but the last couple of years there's been a couple of good songs (not enough for me to bother with a monthly chart) so I'll probably start compiling my end of year chart the week before Christmas. |

Yep the year is ended for me theres 2 or 3 songs I have boosted as I know they will make my top 5 by Xmas. Doh there is actually 2 number ones in my top 30 and yes Kaiser Chiefs is one of them,forget it made #1 and no its not Mika he missed the Top 200 although he was on the short list Bonus 3 points for finding my 1st mistake hehe |

Woohoo! Have all the songs been released as singles? All but 1 song is a 2007 single, it may become a 2008 single but Im not taking any chances and including it now  |

I have Rumble Strips - Creosote as 2006 but maybe you have that as 2007 (it was quite late 2006) and therefore they are the act with 5 songs (the others being Alarm Clock, Motorcycle, Girls And Boys, Time)

nope Rumblestrips have never done great in my chart so its not them,in fact dunno if they have ever made my top 20.
Ok just checked the 1st single was actually released on 25th december 2006 and was download only but did chart in 2007 as it counted under the new rules the following week hehe.

I doubt it but the only ones I can think of are..
Amy Winehouse? (You Know I'm No Good, Back To Black, Tears Dry On Their Own, Valerie, Love Is A Losing Game)
Mark Ronson? (Toxic, Stop Me, Oh My God, Valerie, Most Likely To Go Your Way, And I'll Go Mine (Bob Dylan Re-edit))

Right here goes, just compared 2007's list to 2006 and the 200 songs are much better overall in 2006 but the top 20 this year are amazing records. heres the first 10 200 Gruff Rhys - Gyrry Gyrru Gyrru199 Fall Out Boy - The Take Over, The Break's Over198 I Was A Cub Scout – Pink Squares197 Travis – Closer 196 Lemonheads – Pittsburgh195 Apartment – Pressures194 My Chemical Romance - I Don't Love You193 Polytechnic – Cold Hearted Business192 My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words191 Kasabian – Me Plus OneApartment & Polytechnic should have done much better with their singles.  |
