Just adding this here again (more for my own reference) ...
Minimum number of new seeded songs to appear per round
Songs that are promoted are eventually returned to the tables. These will compete for spots on the list with new (undrawn) seeded songs. This is the order that will be used for songs moving into the lists: * where there are 5 or 6 vacant places for new/returning songs, a minimum 2 new seeded songs must be drawn. * for rounds with 4 or less vacant places for new/returning songs, at least 1 new seeded song shall be drawn; but this will be increased to 2 if there was only 1 new song drawn in the immediate previous round. Where a backlog occurs, promoted songs will reappear in the order of their promoted rank as soon as possible.

I'm gonna skimp a little on the commentary this time except to say that it is happy joy for Spiller (with help from Sophie Ellis-Bextor) and Calvin Harris (with help from Example), taking out the Top 2 in the round.
Gorillaz end a 10 round run with 'Clint Eastwood', their 1st elimination! ... and there's also eliminations from Loreen, Jamelia and My Chemical Romance.
The new seeds for the next round are all the highest seeded songs for the respective artists (only one listing in fact for M83 and Bastille). As it happened, there were many tied songs near the lower part of the table, so all the new/returning songs will have starting points at the bottom of the range.

Alexis Jordan continues her climb on the table right to the top, with her only tournament appearance 'Happiness'. Green Day grab the other promotion as a result of the steady & solid support for 'Wake Me Up When September Ends'.
'Midnight City' makes a strong start for M83, while other new seeds 'Far Away' and 'Pompeii' also start in good style.
Maroon 5 have found the rising competition too strong as 'Makes Me Wonder' makes an exit from the bottom of the table, 6 rounds since returning from promotion. Calvin Harris (feat. Ellie Goulding) took just 1 round since coming back from promotion to be shunted out of the contest with 'I Need Your Love'.
It's also eviction time for new seeds 'In My Mind' and 'What Took You So Long?' only lasting 5 and 2 rounds respectively.
8 points separate all the songs for the new round, giving all the songs a fighting chance if they can draw in some points.

It's been a round of several tie-breaks this time. But M83 are in the clear, earning a promotion straight into the Top 200 with 'Midnight City'.
Tied at 2nd place we have 3 Doors Down with 'Here Without You', Evermore's 'Light Surrounding You' (both in their 1st round) and John Mayer's 'Heartbreak Warfare'.
At the other end of the table, there were more tie-breaks across the 4th Last mark. 'Joker & The Thief', 'Strong' and 'Day 'N' Nite' all get another chance, but they all have some work to do.
There were 2 outright eliminations. LeAnn Rimes hasn't even closely matched the success of having an ARIA EOY #1 with 'Can't Fight The Moonlight' ... as her smash hit is already out after just 2 rounds. Boy & Bear put up a much better battle, but 'Feeding Line' does drop out after 9 rounds since returning from promotion.
To see how all the ARIA EOY #1's are progressing so far in the game I've put in a quick table here:
3 Doors Down - Here Without You Evermore - Light Surrounding You John Mayer - Heartbreak Warfare Icona Pop feat.

The new seeded songs that were immediately tied in 2nd place last round have gone one step better to take the promotions on offer in this round. That's a nice 2 round manoeuvre for Evermore's 'Light Surrounding You' and 3 Doors Down's 'Here Without You'.
John Mayer and Bastille will be best placed going into the next round, while The Black Keys have been in the better half of the table for all 13 rounds now and hold on at 5th with 'Lonely Boy'.
It was a slowish start for Garbage's 'Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)' and also a cautious return from promotion for Britney Spears and Swedish House Mafia (vs. Tinie Tempah).
Rock tracks 'Best Of You' and 'Joker & The Thief' exit from the bottom of the table. It is also game over for our #999 seeded song 'Day 'N' Nite' which had been promoted 2 times already (within 2 rounds both those times too) but is finding the competition much too heavy this time.
Rounding out the eliminations is the highest song appearance for The Black Eyed Peas, with their first chartbuster 'Where Is The Love?'. Fergie will have to go it alone from here with her two promoted songs still due to return.
There's plenty of interesting songs moving into the next round ... probably something for everyone. One of the returning songs first appeared waaayyy back in Round 3. Good luck to your faves!

John Mayer's last surviving song 'Heartbreak Warfare' comfortably takes out the top spot on the latest table, earning the song a 2nd promotion so far in the game. Bastille's 'Pompeii' grabs the other promotion on offer. Both songs will be back around the Top 235 mark of the countdown.
'Talk Like That' from The Presets starts strongly back from promotion, while new seeds 'Royals' and 'Running' have also fared well with the members.
Swedish House Mafia (vs. Tinie Tempah) have checked out at #392 on the Top 1001 with 'Miami 2 Ibiza'. Amy Meredith lasted 5 rounds with their only entry in the competition 'Lying'. Luck has run out for Britney Spears' 'Lucky' but she does have 2 new seeds still to be drawn.
Eskimo Joe's 'Don't Let Me Down' and Garbage's 'Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)' are tied at the 4th Last part of the table.
The only qualifying songs from Shinedown and The Ting Tings will make an appearance in the next round. We'll also have the highest seeded song from Vanessa Amorosi, and we haven't seen her for a while but Rihanna is back (and no, it's not her highest entry ).

It seems that it was a two horse race in this round. The Presets and Evermore surged away from the rest of the field with their mid/late '00s chart hits 'Talk Like That' and 'Running'. For Evermore, this was their 3rd promotion in 8 rounds!
The Black Keys have taken 15 rounds to get 'Lonely Boy' back into 3rd place on the table. With a 4.5 point lead on 4th placed 'Royals' from Lorde, that elusive promotion could be close at hand.
Collecting just single digit totals per round can be detrimental around here. It's farewell to The Ting Tings, Jennifer Lopez and Vanessa Amorosi, all having just experienced their highest listing on the main countdown. Justin Timberlake is also evicted with 'What Goes Around... Comes Around' after just 2 rounds. His last chance is 'Mirrors' which will be back from promotion in the Top 250.
There's just a 6 point range between 4th on the table and the lowest survivor going into the next list 'Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)'. With a rebound in points in this round from Nickelback, Delta Goodrem, Icona Pop (feat. Charli XCX), London Grammar and Eskimo Joe, the field seems less predictable, so anything could be possible from here.

Success at last after 16 rounds! 'Lonely Boy' tops the table for The Black Keys, guaranteed of a place in the countdown somewhere in the Top 232. Nickelback have taken 6 rounds to reach the Top 2 with 'Far Away', also earning a valuable promotion.
Icona Pop's 'I Love It' and Rihanna's 'Only Girl (In The World)' have a small gap on the rest of the field, currently placed 3rd and 4th on the ladder, while the resurgence continues for London Grammar's 'Strong'.
It was a tame debut for the new seeded songs of the round. All 4 are placed at the bottom of the table, with Eminem only surviving courtesy of the 'hold' rule.
'Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)' and 'Come Clean' have failed to impact, collecting no points despite a solid review average from the members here on this site. Robbie Williams is also out with 'Come Undone', which becomes his 9th and highest song appearance on the main countdown.
Here's hoping that the 5 new seeded songs for next round can find better fortune.

Having spent most of the 10 rounds in the top half of the table, Icona Pop & Charli XCX found good support in the last couple of rounds to lock in a promotion for 'I Love It'.
The new seeds of this round varied from very good to very lucky. Klingande was the best of those newbies. 'Jubel' will move straight into the Top 190 ... probably to be the most recent charting song to make an appearance in the main countdown ( along with 'Prayer In C (Robin Schulz Remix)' ).
As for the other new seeded songs? It was a strong debut for Panic! At The Disco's breakthrough chart hit 'I Write Sins Not Tragedies', while The Killers have had a worthy start with 'Human'.
Jamelia's 'Superstar' and Kings Of Leon's 'Manhattan' didn't quite have the same enthusiastic take off, with both songs tied in the nerve-racking 4th Last position.
Shinedown have been and gone after just a brief 3 round appearance in the contest, with 'Second Chance' having run out of chips. Little Mix took 3 rounds to get their 1st promotion of 'Move', but the charting single from 1 year ago is evicted after just 2 rounds the 2nd time around. Eminem rounds out the eliminations with 'Sing For The Moment' never gaining much momentum in the battle for the points.
For the next round, Lady GaGa and Coldplay are back with new seeded songs, alongside the highest seeded track for Nelly.

Panic! At The Disco gain a quick promotion for their 3rd song appearance in the game 'I Write Sins Not Tragedies'. The guys still have one more new seed to appear too. The Killers have also taken only 2 rounds to earn their promotion, with 'Human' moving into the Top 190. The Killers have several new seeds yet to appear.
Rihanna is placed high with both of her current song listings, while Eskimo Joe, London Grammar, Sugababes and Lorde are all staging a comeback higher on the table.
Three new seeds have fallen out of contention quickly, all within 2 rounds. 'Superstar', 'Manhattan' and 'Just A Dream' make way for some dance/pop entrants for the next round, including 2 former ARIA #1 hits.

Rihanna slays in this round, adding 'SOS' and 'Only Girl (In The World)' to the promoted list. The list already holds 'Diamonds', 'What's My Name?' and 'Don't Stop The Music' (and her feature in 'Take Care') all yet to return from promotion. One of them is due soon.
London Grammar's 'Strong' at 3rd on the table has nearly completed a full recovery after being tied at 4th Last seven rounds ago. Lorde and OneRepublic complete the current Top 5.
Neon Trees are evicted with 'Animal', as is Delta Goodrem's 'Out Of The Blue' holding out for 11 rounds. Leona Lewis has the other elimination, as 'Better In Time' found the competition too hot on this return from promotion.

Coldplay's 'Paradise' joins 'Yellow' and 'Violet Hill' in promotional bliss, just at the same time as 'Viva La Vida' is due to return from its promotional break.
There were no other promotions this time, as iiO and Lorde find themselves tied in 2nd place with their respective 'R' hits.
The competition is clearly getting tougher, when strong hits are meeting their demise in fairly quick time. Kelly Clarkson was unable to gain any traction from her 2nd chance, as 'Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)' gets canned. It's also goodbye for 'Bent' (just back from promotion), 'Cool' (struck out immediately) and 'Endless Summer' (getting no favours with the current season).
Two former ARIA #1's will find themselves at the bottom of the next round's list...

+5 Martin Garrix - Animals +4 Eskimo Joe - Don't Let Me Down +3 Timbaland feat. Keri Hilson - The Way I Are +2 Avicii - Wake Me Up! +1 Coldplay - Viva La Vida
The 'R' songs have gone on with the job, each securing the promotions on offer in this round. 'Rapture' and 'Royals' are both bound for the Top 224.
Gwen Stefani suffers an eliminated song in 2 consecutive rounds. But the departure of 'Hollaback Girl' was really quite a collapse! as the history of points here shows: +23 points --> 1st promotion --> +23 points --> 2nd promotion --> nil points --> eliminated
Garbage had a fair run with 'Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)', lasting 9 rounds but never making it into the top-half of the table. Avicii's 'Wake Me Up!' couldn't emulate it's recent worldwide success, fading out after a brief 3 round appearance.
Coldplay's 'Viva La Vida' outdoes the new seeded songs on its return from promotion. London Grammar's 'Strong' is the longest running track right now at 13 rounds in.

Ed Sheeran tops the table in the bicentennial round with 'The A Team'. This joins his other '+' album hits 'Lego House' and 'Give Me Love' still on a promotion break.
Coldplay make quick work in earning a 2nd promotion for 'Viva La Vida', and it is their 2nd promotion in 3 rounds!
Some of the longer running songs are gaining points at a useful time, while they are placed higher on the table. Eskimo Joe have run out of steam however, as 'Don't Let Me Down' bows out after a 9 round run, having reached as high as equal 3rd not long ago.
Kelis and P!nk don't survive beyond the 1st round appearance of their latest new seeds. 'Caught Out There' becomes Kelis's highest appearing song on the main countdown at #365. 'U + Ur Hand' gained just a single point in the round, registering P!nk's 13th appearance on the Top 1001 countdown (that's a record) with more still to come.
Sonique's 'Sky' is the other elimination of the round, never achieving any lofty heights in this contest.
An interesting bunch of new/returning songs is likely to shift around a few votes for the next stage of play...

Kylie Minogue's 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' joins another 'Fever' album single 'In Your Eyes' in the promotion waiting zone. The Fray have also earned a promotion in this round, which sees 'How To Save A Life' join 'Over My Head (Cable Car)' in securing a Top 250 placing.
+5 points isn't enough at this level of the contest, so it is goodbye to some popular tracks from INXS, Outkast and Kisschasy.
Dizzee and Thirty Seconds To Mars are currently tied at 4th Last.
It's quite the Christmas mood right now, but unfortunately that genre of music doesn't fare too well in the seedings here. At least a couple of the songs for the new list were selling well on the Christmas chart of that year (if that counts )
Round 202 Deck the halls with your Top 5. This round will be open until at least the end of the weekend:

It is a three-way tie at the top, with 'The Way I Are', 'Snakeskin' and 'Push The Button' all denied a promotion for now. They do have a small lead on the next few frontrunners, but 'Frontier Psychiatrist', 'Animals' and 'Speed Of Sound' did actually collect more points in the round.
It was mixed fortunes for the Sugababes. While 'Push The Button' is nicely placed high on the table, 'Too Lost In You' immediately falls out after just 1 round. Gabrielle also lasts just 1 round with 'Out Of Reach' and Thirty Seconds To Mars have just posted their highest appearance on the countdown with 'The Kill (Bury Me)' also falling out.
Justin Timberlake's 'My Love' and End Of Fashion's 'O Yeah' are tied at 4th Last and are at least 3 points below the rest of the pack.
London Grammar's 'Strong' is still around after 16 consecutive rounds, but is slipping down the table of late.

It took them a few rounds to get there, but those higher points collected in recent rounds have secured a promotion for Timbaland's (feat. Keri Hilson) 'The Way I Are' and Martin Garrix's 'Animals'. It's the 2nd promotion for Timbaland (after 'Apologize') and Martin's only song but his electro house track is now promoted for a 3rd time.
It was a substandard start for the new seeds this time. You know things are getting tough when Adele and Muse are struggling. While Adele is saved by the 'hold' rule, Muse are evicted immediately with their more mainstream offering 'Undisclosed Desires'.
Lasting just 2 rounds each, it is goodbye to Justin Timberlake's 'My Love' and End Of Fashion's 'O Yeah'. Justin still has 'Mirrors' to return from promotion, but 'O Yeah' will be the highest placed song on the countdown for End Of Fashion.
It's back to the 2001 to 2004 years for our next bunch of highly regarded new seeded chart songs.

Sugababes have taken 13 rounds to get a 3rd promotion for 'Push The Button'. The 2 other promotions (of their highest charting ARIA hit) had only taken within 2 rounds each. Anastacia enjoys an immediate promotion of her former ARIA #1 'Left Outside Alone'.
The recent struggles for the new seeds continues with all eliminations coming from higher seeds rather than the returning promoted songs. Empire Of The Sun, Michelle Branch and Adele lose their latest songs after a brief stint, while Lady GaGa's 'The Edge Of Glory' is also evicted after a more impressive 9 round battle.

Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown have scored a 3rd promotion for their Aust. and NZ #1 hit 'No Air'. Each time it has taken 2 rounds to get their promotion. The Avalanches also earn a 3rd promotion with their only song entry in the contest 'Frontier Psychiatrist', taking 2, 1 and 5 rounds respectively to get the promotion.
Seether (feat. Amy Lee) and Arctic Monkeys are near the pace required in looking to get the next promotional prizes, while One Republic and new seed 'Need You Now' from Lady Antebellum are not far behind.
P!nk has failed on her return from promotion this time with 'Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)' drawing the lowest points in the round. This becomes her 14th song on the Top 1001 countdown.
Maroon 5 and The Corrs will be choked up with their eliminations, as 'Harder To Breathe' and 'Breathless' are evicted in this round. For The Corrs, this is their highest and in fact only entry.
'These Kids...' and 'Toca's Miracle' probably never had much in common before, but today they've saved each other from elimination, currently tied at 4th Last place. Last edited:

Lady Antebellum have polled strongly with their Grammy song of the year winner 'Need You Now'. Also advancing in the countdown is Seether (feat. Amy Lee) with 'Broken'.
Arctic Monkeys and OneRepublic once again wait just outside the Top 2. But they have a good lead on the remaining songs this time.
It was a quick exit for Frank Ocean's 'Thinkin Bout You', not in the hunt for another promotion. Joel Turner & The Modern Day Poets' 'These Kids...' and Foo Fighter's 'All My Life' are also eliminated in quick time. *N Sync had a longer run (7 rounds this time) with 'Bye Bye Bye' but have also reached the end of their run.
Two former ARIA #1's are among the new seedings for the next round.

OneRepublic and Arctic Monkeys have converted their strong lead in the previous round into a promotion (for each) in this one! It took 12 rounds for 'Stop And Stare' to get a 3rd promotion in the game, but did it in style with an acceleration of points. 'Do I Wanna Know?' regularly gained double-digit points in recent rounds and that allowed the song to rise up into the promotion zone.
Coldplay's 'Speed Of Sound' has a 5 point lead on the next best placed song 'Hey Ya!' from Outkast, going into the new round. London Grammar's 'Strong' is still going strong after 21 rounds but it has been a rollercoaster run so far.
Three one-word song titled tracks have been eliminated on this occasion. Jessica Mauboy's 'Burn' shall be her highest appearance on the Top 1001 countdown. Green Day's 'Holiday' and Rihanna's 'Diamonds' are the other evictees.
We've recently seen songs bounce back up the table after being tied at 4th Last. Can Lana Del Rey's 'Summertime Sadness' and Benny Benassi's 'Cinema' have the same good fortune?
Five well known artists move into the new list - 2 new seeds and 3 returning promoted songs; 4 of those are ARIA Top 10'ers while the other comfortably made the Top 20. Last edited:

Coldplay didn't break the sound barrier to get to the top, but 'Speed Of Sound' does well to get top honours in this round, earning a promotion in its 7th round. 'Speed Of Sound' joins their other promoted songs 'Yellow', 'Violet Hill', 'Paradise' and 'Viva La Vida', all guaranteed a placing in the Top 320 or much better. Outkast have just outplayed Sugababes to grab the other promotion on offer in this round with 'Hey Ya!'.
Daft Punk had the best start for the new seeds, while Jet's 'Look What You've Done' restarted just as well, back from promotion.
At the wrong end of the table, Lana Del Rey loses her 2nd song in the countdown with 'Summertime Sadness' ('Young And Beautiful' was her 1st at #484).
Dizzee Rascal (feat. Calvin Harris & Chrome) locks in his highest placed song on the countdown with 'Dance Wiv Me' at #338. Benny Benassi (feat. Gary Go) has the other elimination of the round. 'Cinema' (his only song in the contest) actually had the best change in points between this and last rounds, but it wasn't quite enough to close the gap. Last edited:

Daft Punk's first song in the competition has started on the right note, as 'One More Time' scores a promotion in just 2 rounds, and is bound for the Top 167. Daft Punk have another seeded song to come. There's no prizes guessing what that may be.
Veteran muso Madonna wasn't troubled in this later part of the contest. 'Hung Up' has also earned a promotion and will be placed close to (if not within) the Top 200 ultimately.
Jet's 'Look What You've Done' is looking comfortable in 3rd place, while London Grammar's 'Strong' keeps on improving, climing up to 4th on this latest table after 23 rounds!
There are 4 eliminations in this round, all songs with female vocalists ... 'Spectrum (Say My Name)' fizzled out after 2 rounds, while Major Lazer (feat. Amber Coffman) couldn't survive the 1st round back from promotion with 'Get Free'.
Also set free are Beyoncé's 'Sweet Dreams' and also Gwen Stefani's '4 In The Morning' which just so happened to last 4 rounds.
The points did shift in this latest round, with a noticeable rise for 'On Call' (6 points better than the previous round) and a loss in momentum for 'Overload' (6 less points then before). Look out for your favourites.

Jet convincingly climb to the top of the table in this round with their soft rock hit 'Look What You've Done'. It's the 2nd promotion for that song, and the only promoted song thus far for the band. Taking the 2nd longest time so far in the game to get their promotion, London Grammar finally emerge with a promotion in the 24th round with 'Strong'!!! (Britney's 'Gimme More' took an epic 26 rounds.)
Sugababes and Kings Of Leon are within reach of a promotion with their 'O' singles ... 'Overload' and 'On Call'. Just behind them is 'Pictures Of You' having one of the better starts in a while for a returning promoted song.
The eliminations keep on keeping on. There are 4 in this round. Missy Higgins is out with 'Where I Stood' but fortunately has more songs due to appear, while Michelle Branch's 'All You Wanted' becomes her highest listing on the main countdown at #331.
Katy Perry's 3rd highest listing in the Top 1001 is confirmed as 'Teenage Dream' at #330. My Chemical Romance have the other elimination of the round with 'Famous Last Words' dropping out after 5 rounds.
Two new seeds and four previously promoted songs move into the next list. One of those barely scraped into the ARIA Top 30, while three others never made the ARIA Top 40 at all. But don't underestimate their chances here.

Rock in some of its various forms has taken the podium finish in his round ... The Last Goodnight finished best with 'Pictures Of You' earning a 2nd promotion (4 rounds the 1st time, and just 2 rounds this time). Persistence has paid off for the voters of Gyroscope's 'Snakeskin' - getting that other promotion after a lengthy 14 round run since back from promotion.
Kings Of Leon also keep rock aloft with 'On Call' moving up to 3rd on the table. The more electronic offering 'This Boy's In Love' from The Presets is just behind at 4th place.
At the other end of the table, it is more pop aligned - with dance, synthpop and pop ballad all represented. Alex Gaudino (feat. Crystal Waters) bows out with 'Destination Calabria' while Cee Lo Green is also evicted, back from promotion for just 1 round with 'Bright Lights Bigger City'. Sugababes lose 1 of their current 2 entries as 'Ugly' finds itself at the bottom of the latest table.
Kaiser Chiefs and Lana Del Rey are fortunate to hang on in 4th Last position. But, in a round where many songs were well supported, their +5 points needs improvement and has left 'Ruby' and 'West Coast' with a sizeable gap to chase down.
It's an all-ARIA Top 7 treat with the new/returning songs of next round. Last edited:

The Presets claim the top stop on the latest table with 'This Boy's In Love', joining 'Talk Like That' in earning a promotional break. Kings Of Leon's highest seeded song took its time to get its breakthrough. 'On Call' finally reaches the Top 2 after 14 rounds, now making it 3 songs waiting in promotion for the band (the others are 'Supersoaker' and 'Use Somebody').
It was a spirited effort to get some points back, but the gap was too great for Kaiser Chiefs to chase, as 'Ruby' slips out from the Last 4. Also eliminated are a string of female vocal tracks: No Doubt's 'It's My Life' unable to survive its 1st round appearance, Wynter Gordon's 'Dirty Talk' and Lana Del Rey's 'West Coast'. The new/returning songs for next round just so happens to have a high % of female vocalists.
The competing songs are closely aligned once again, with less than 8 points in the full range for the next challenge.

As the countdown climbs its way closer to the Top 300, we've crossed the point where all promotions are assured of a Top 200 placing or better! The popular awardees of this round are OneRepublic's 'Counting Stars' and Moby's 'Porcelain'. It is the 2nd promotion for CS and the 3rd for Porcelain.
'Mad World', 'Faded' and 'Sunsets' round out the Top 5, looking good for a chance at a promotion soon.
The ladies have continued to falter at the bottom of the table once more. Jordin Sparks fails to collect any points, just back from promotion with 'Battlefield'. Sugababes are also point-less with 'Hole In The Head'. Christina Aguilera was another not surviving beyond the 1st round, with her power ballad 'The Voice Within'. The most successful ARIA hit of all these evicted songs however is Taylor Swift's EOY #3 from 2009 'Love Story'. The last surviving wild card (if you can remember that far back) finally falls.
While one former ARIA #1 falls out, another is about to move on in.

We go back to the earlier 2000s for the promotional champs of this round. Michael Andrews (feat. Gary Jules) take their Tears For Fears cover of 'Mad World' into the Top 198, while DJ Sammy & Yanou (feat. Do) take the Bryan Adams cover of 'Heaven' into the Top 158. Both covers happened about 20 years after those original hits coincidentally.
A couple of more recent songs take pole position into next round, with Zhu's 'Faded' and Foster The People's 'Pumped Up Kicks' placed at 3rd and 4th right now.
Two of the returned promotions have stumbled on their immediate return ... Drake's 'Hold On, We're Going Home' collected just +5 points, while Rita Ora's 'I Will Never Let You Down' polled even worse at +4, a big change from her +20 points in that song's only other appearance many rounds ago where a promotion was immediately awarded.
The Veronicas fared the worst of the bunch with 'Everything I'm Not' exiting from the bottom of the table at #317. Lisa & Jessica still have 3 songs in reserve luckily.
Mariah and Fergie are in a bit of a bind, tied at 4th Last place. The hits just keep on coming however, so fingers are crossed for them and your favourites.

Foster The People and Coldplay were the strongest of the new/returning seeds last round, and they carry on that momentum into the Top 2 today. 'Pumped Up Kicks' and 'Yellow' are moving on into the Top 157.
'Faded' and 'Overload' make up the rest of the Top 4. Both have been hanging around near the promotion zone for a while now. 'Sunsets' is just behind them, but is losing some traction.
The bottom of the table was fairly bunched up, so it wasn't clear who would be the unlucky ones. As it turns out, '#Beautiful', 'Still Into You' and 'Runaway' just fell short of the rest of the field this time. Matchbox Twenty's 'Disease' gets a relieving 'hold' at 4th Last, while the previous 4th Last (tied) 'Glamorous' found some extra support this time and moves up into the top half of the table.
Five new/returning songs will move into the fold, including the last surviving song for Nelly (that's the other Nelly, not Ms. Furtado).

Strong support in 2 consecutive rounds has allowed 'Dare' to earn a 3rd promotion. Sugababes had to work a lot harder for their promotion ... 'Overload' has earned a pass into the Top 200 after an 11 round run.
P!nk's 'Who Knew' and Avicii's 'Levels' have bolted out of the blocks, and look to be stamping their intention of a high placing in the massive countdown.
The field was strong this time, so it was fairly unlucky for The Temper Trap's 'Fader' and Beyoncé's 'Crazy In Love' to find themselves slipping into the elimination zone. +8 points isn't enough to make the grade. I recall 'Crazy In Love' topping some huge countdown once ... well, it's not to be in this one, but the track hasn't rated too badly.
Really struggling with the points were Ellie Goulding's 'Lights' and Fergie's 'Glamorous' (feat. Ludacris), both evicted from the bottom of the table.
The competition continues to heat up. The next milestone is to survive into the Top 300.

Clean Bandit will be firming as one of the favourites for the highest placed 2014 track on the countdown. 'Rather Be' earns a promotion straight into the Top 151 from the top of the table. Avicii gets the same promotional jump with 'Levels' earning a 1st promotion after just 2 rounds.
P!nk is a little unlucky with 'Who Knew' in the sense that it looked to be a shoo-in for a Top 2 finish within 2 rounds. But some solid competition sees her 2006 single hold at 3rd on the table for now. Starsailor and Kelly Clarkson round out the Top 5.
As we approach the Top 300, three songs just miss out on that level! 'Dilemma' becomes Nelly's highest placed song at #303. 'Toca's Miracle' checks out at #302 for Fragma. Finally, Shaggy is also out with his highest placed song 'It Wasn't Me' at #301. All three songs span the period 2000 to 2002.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Natalie Imbruglia will move into the next round with their highest seeded songs, as the undrawn seeded pool fast approaches the final 150! Mika, Rihanna (with Drake) and Bloodhound Gang are also back from their promotional break, ready to try it on with the "increased quality" as was recently observed.
As we move into the final 300, it may be interesting to see what years these songs will come from. The year used is when the song had debuted in the ARIA [Top 50] or New Zealand [Top 50/40] chart, whichever is the earlier date. The distribution isn't heavily skewed, so most of the years will still have a good representation.

Starsailor get a 2nd promotion for their one-hit wonder track 'Four To The Floor'. P!nk starts strongly too with her 17th new seed (so far) 'Who Knew'. Officially she has just one more new seed still to come.
'Grace Kelly' and 'Murder On The Dancefloor' were the best of the new/returning songs of the round, keeping 'Already Gone' and 'Everytime' out of the Top 4.
Three returned promoted songs have faltered in this round. Disclosure (feat. Sam Smith) drop out with 'Latch', while Rihanna & Drake's 'What's My Name?' has also faced eviction. Drake & Rihanna, however, will coincidentally be straight back next round with their other significant hit. I guess they played their 'save' card.
Fall Out Boy's 'The Take Over, The Breaks Over' and Natalie Imbruglia's 'Shiver' are the other eliminated songs, just making it into the Top 300 of the countdown.
More quality songs take the place of those that have just left, including two former ARIA #1s that would appear to be held in high regard. Last edited:

'Murder On The Dancefloor' overtakes 'Grace Kelly' on the table to take one of the promotions on offer. New seed 'Hanging By A Moment' grabs the other promotion in its 1st round appearance for Lifehouse. Both songs will be back somewhere in the Top 147!
'Maneater' takes a leap into 3rd place, while Mika's 'Grace Kelly' steps back to 4th.
The longest running song of the moment 'Unwritten' was getting dangerously close to the elimination zone and ends its run this time after 11 rounds, never making it into the Top 5. Kings Of Leon can't match it with the stronger competition as 'Supersoaker' is also splashed out, straight after its return from promotion.
Bloodhound Gang end their run with 'The Bad Touch', while the 4th elimination didn't receive any points... Candice Alley was out of her depth amongst the current batch of songs with 'Falling'.
Two former ARIA #1s return from promotion, up against three new seeds that are all from artists with other new seeds still to come. Vote thoughtfully.

In late 2006, Nelly Furtado's 'Maneater' climbed its way up to #3 on the ARIA chart. Soon after, in the autumn of 2007, Mika peaked at #2 on ARIA with his breakthrough smash hit 'Grace Kelly'. I recall both songs starting their ARIA chart run with 6-4... This round both songs have something else in common. They've earned their promotion reward and will be back in the contest around the Top 186 stage.
Britney is gaining some ground on the table now with 'Everytime' favourably placed at 3rd, while Foo Fighters still have some juice left in the tank with 'Generator' moving up to 4th after 8 rounds of play since its promotion holiday.
It's danger time at the lower end of the table! Owl City seems to be fighting the current with 'Fireflies' not getting much traction at 6th Last place. Just below that, there is a three-way tie across the 4th Last mark ... setting up a fight for survival for Adele's 'Set Fire To The Rain', Drake & Rihanna's 'Take Care' and Lilly Wood & The Prick's 'Prayer In C (Remix)'.
The bottom two songs, meanwhile, were simply out of their league. Eskimo Joe were unable to find any support with 'From The Sea', while Enrique Iglesias's 'Hero' just back from promotion was outplayed with its poor +4 points showing. Both worthy songs, but I couldn't quite find a place for them in my Top 5.
Mary J Blige, City High, Example and Lady GaGa ... take your mark, get set ...

Britney Spears is the "princess of pop" once more with 'Everytime' gaining the only promotion of the round. Regarded by many as her best ballad!
It's fun. vs. Foo Fighters in 2nd place, as 'Some Nights' and 'Generator' are all tied up, both songs denied a promotion for now.
The highest points in the round actually went to Scissor Sisters' 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' ' (+15) keeping the battle interesting.
Of the 4 new/returning songs in the round, only Lady Gaga's 'Paparazzi' has started off well. The other returned promoted song 'Changed The Way You Kiss Me' was stuck in the cellar, checking out at #290 on the countdown.
The two other eliminations were Boy & Bear's (aptly titled?) 'Fall At Your Feet' and the other, one of the more unexpected shock eliminations for a while in my mind ... Adele's 'Set Fire To The Rain'. I don't think we can blame too many album sales for this slip.
The 3 returned promoted songs and 1 newie for the next round are all ARIA Top 5 peakers. Game on once again.

Scissor Sisters have earned a 3rd promotion for their smash hit 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' '. This time it has taken 3 rounds to get their promotion, while the other two times it was snapped up in just 1 round. Fun. also had a 1 round promotion previously with 'Some Nights'. For this run it takes a slightly slower 4 rounds. Let's see how they'll go later on against the sky high seeds.
They haven't got there yet but it's almost within reach. They've got the siphoning equipment out and all ... Foo Fighter's 'Generator' waits patiently at 3rd place, after a 10 round run thus far.
Some cruisy Aussie rock rounds out the Top 5 with 'Shine' and 'Sunsets' still looking to get that promotional break.
A drop in the tally of points has been deadly for Drake & Rihanna's 'Take Care' just falling into the elimination zone. Flume didn't last near as long as the 14 round run the 1st time, as 'Holdin On' is movin' out after 4 rounds.
We also farewell Mary J Blige's 'Family Affair' and City High's 'What Would You Do?' after just 2 rounds of play each. Both did well in the ratings to get a high seeding at least.
Owl City's 'Fireflies' had the best rebound in points of the round, while Lilly Wood & The Prick's 'Prayer In C (Remix)' was one of the more noteworthy declines.
For next round, we welcome new seeds from two superstar female artists. Rihanna is back yet again (just in time to replace 'Take Care') and Katy Perry will try her luck with her highest seeded song...

The Rihanna / Calvin Harris team-up has got the thumbs up from 6 members, enough for 'We Found Love' to earn an instant promotion. For the Foo Fighters, it was a case of "better late than never". 'Generator' does make the outright Top 2 after 11 rounds in this run. The previous 2 promotions took 2 and 5 rounds.
There's just 1 point separating 3rd to 6th, keeping things interesting ahead.
Four songs are eliminated in this round, all well adrift from the rest of the competition this time. Lilly Wood & The Prick will be the 6th highest 2014 charter on the main countdown with 'Prayer In C (Remix)'. The other eliminations are 'Helena', 'Steal My Sunshine' and 'Lanterns'.
It's a strong batch of songs that remain to battle it out, and the same can be said with the new/returning songs for next round. Quite a diverse playlist there. Good luck to all!

It is probably an unexpected result here ... the song placed 8th last round just sneaks past all the other songs to grab the only promotion this round. 'Love Generation' has booked itself a place into the Top 139. Happy is Bob Sinclar.
Lady GaGa's 'Paparazzi' and Kelly Clarkson's 'Already Gone' will both be hoping for another promotion soon, with both songs tied in 2nd place, unable to be split.
Just behind them, 'Fireflies' is also looking for another Top 2 finish. The new/returning seeds of the round haven't troubled any of these so far, with Duke Dumont and Radiohead starting best, placed in the middle of the table.
Adam Lambert just hangs on with a 'hold' at 4th Last. But just below 'Whataya Want From Me' are the 3 eliminated songs of the round. All were the cellar-dwellers on 90 points previously. 'Whole Again', 'Love At First Sight' and 'These Words' all depart, just a few days shy of Valentine's Day.
Lady GaGa returns with a 2nd song for the next list. Eskimo Joe is also back for another try after 'From The Sea' faltered just 4 rounds ago.

The songs recently tied at 2nd place have moved into the Top 2 and have each claimed their promotion. For Lady GaGa's 'Paparazzi' this is the 3rd promotion for her ARIA #2 peaker. She has no others waiting in promotion at the moment, but she still has a couple of new seeds to appear, as well as 'Telephone' still in play. For Kelly Clarkson, it was a hard fought promotion, but 'Already Gone' gets there after a 14 round run. The 1st promotion took just 1 round.
'Fireflies' makes another 1 place climb on the table, now up to 3rd, while Duke Dumont (feat. A*M*E) makes a charge into 4th place with 'Need [s]that promotion[/s] U (100%)'.
Songs charting around 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 are all evicted in this round. It is farewell to 'Hot N Cold', 'Foreign Land', 'Whataya Want From Me' and 'Punching In A Dream'. It proved to be another recent stumble for Eskimo Joe. We've just seen the highest appearance on the Top 1001 for Adam Lambert #275 and Katy Perry #273.
Delta is back with a new seed and returned promotion at the same time. Will this help or hinder her in the next round?

Duke Dumont's 'Need U (100%)' (feat. A*M*E) gets the most points two rounds in a row, pushing the 2013 ARIA charter right up to the summit. Owl City is also popping the champagne, with 'Fireflies' earning a promotion after 11 rounds of trying. This is the 3rd promotion for 'Need U (100%)' and the 2nd for 'Fireflies'.
Two long running songs are holding a great advantage. 'Shine' and 'You And Me' are at 3rd and 4th on the current table and will be over 6 points clear of the rest of the competition going into next round. All the remaining songs will be within just a 5 point range.
One of the two Delta songs has failed to keep up with the required benchmark. Her duet with Brian McMadden 'Almost Here' drops out from the bottom of the table.
The other eliminations were Tenacious D's 'Tribute', struggling with +5 points, while The Temper Trap's 'Trembling Hands' (+12) and Sam Sparro's 'Black And Gold' (+11) were unlucky to fall, but that's how strong the competition is getting lately.
4 former ARIA Top 10 hits are amongst the new/returning songs. Both new seeds are from the year 2000. There's an interesting head-to-head clash with Moby vs. Eminem. As they say in the football games, there could be some rivalry here. Last edited:
