40, 38, 35, 34 and 31 are all correct.
39 and 37 are both from the same EP, and both are by a singer I like more than any of those you guessed.
36 was released in the 2010's.
You have the right artist for 33. Think more recently by a few years.

Good guess, but not quite. Unlike Evanescence, whose name is a real word, this band's name is nonsense.

40. Nelly Furtado - Turn Off The LightThe higheset entry from Nelly Furtado was a long-runner spending over eight months in my top 40, all that despite not reaching #1 on my weekly chart! That longevity helped her get my #1 of 2001. 39. Kate Voegele - Ooh La LaKate Voegele has three songs in a row - this high up sure shows her power on my chart! This was one of three #1's from her "Wild Card" EP, and the lowest of the three - just shows how much I loved the songs from it! 38. Kate Voegele - Shoot This ArrowInspired by the "me-too" movement that she experienced on the set of "One Tree Hill", this song had a darker, more trap-influenced feel than most of Kate's stuff. The change in style worked for this song, as it was an instant hit for me, spending 7 weeks at #1 in 2017-18. 37. Kate Voegele - CarouselAnd here's the second highest "Wild Card EP" track! This catchy, upbeat song delivered exactly what I love to hear from Kate, and was a modest hit on other personal charts too. Still seven more Kate songs to come after this, giving her a total of 10 of the top 40! 36. Carly Rae Jepsen - Cut To The FeelingAnd here is the highest from Canada's Carly Rae Jepsen! It's amazing how many quality songs she recorded during the "Emotion" sessions, and this one, which ended up on an animated movie soundtrack, became my favourite of all from her, and my #1 song of 2017! 35. Daniel Bedingfield - If You're Not The OneNormally a dance artist, Daniel Bedingfield had several ballads too, and this one especially I found very chilling! It spent a total of 5 weeks at #1 on my chart, and is by far my favourite from him. 34. The Wreckers - Leave The PiecesSuch was the power of Michelle Branch at her peak that even a country duo that she was part of - The Wreckers - had huge success for me! I really enjoyed their "Stand Still, Look Pretty" album, and this lead single from it spent 7 weeks at #1 and was my #1 of 2006. 33. Kelly Clarkson - What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)Kelly Clarkson is another absolutely massive core artist for me; this is only her fourth highest entry! This song, which returned her to #1 on the pop charts, was an optimistic anthem that everything will be alright after a breakup and that what doesn't kill her makes her stronger! Definitely a career highlight from her. 32. Hoobastank - The ReasonMany 2000's rock bands are best known for their big ballad and Hoobastank is no exception! This catchy and relateable song became a big favourite of mine in 2004, spending four non-consecutive weeks at #1 and trading places with Britney Spears' "Everytime" during this time. Ultimately, I still love this song and it holds up very well for me. 31. 3 Doors Down - Let Me GoAnother band who has had many hits for me - indeed, none of their #1's were weak - is 3 Doors Down! This lead single from "Seventeen Days" proved their staying power for me, and such is its power that it is only their third highest entry this high up! How high are the other two?

30. A song co-written by Canada's power couple Raine Maida and Chantal Kreviazuk. 29. A song from a movie based on a Marvel comic. It features a guest vocal from the lead singer of a Christian rock band. 28. Two versions of this song were released, much like her previous single. I much preferred the original version without the rap, it had her typical Latin feel to it. 27. The debut single from a Canadian singer who has more recently become very inconsistent - this sounds more mature than stuff she released more than a decade later! 26. This second collaboration from these artists with a huge age gap was significantly bigger than the first for me. 25. This core artist of mine normally doesn't get much airplay if any at all. To my surprise, this was actually a decent-sized Hot AC hit, narrowly missing the top 20 at that format. 24. Another breakthrough single from one of the biggest female artists of my chart's era. She got her wish, and then some, with this song. 23. One of IMO the most underrated songs by this core artist. It's an empowering anthem co-written by Sia. 22. This band is legendary in their homeland of Canada, but in the USA, this was their only top 20 pop hit. 21. If you were around back when this was out (think: Bengino era), you'd remember how much of a huge fan of this that I was (and still am, as it holds up very well for me). So it may surprise you that this missed my top 20 best charting songs, and therefore, this singer has no songs in the top 20!

30. Kate Voegele - Heart In ChainsTo lead off her third album "Gravity Happens", Kate Voegele enlisted the help of Canadian songwriters and power couple Raine Maida and Chantal Kreviazuk. The result is this, an uptempo lead-off single that has all the hallmarks of a classic Kate Voegele song, and was my #1 song of 2011. Still six more from her to come. 29. Evanescence - Bring Me To LifeOne of 2003's big rock hits was this one from the "Daredevil" soundtrack; Amy Lee's soaring vocals with a hard rock backing really made Evanescence stand out at the time. The album "Fallen" became my favourite that year, and this lead single was a 3-week #1 for me. 28. Jennifer Lopez - Ain't It FunnyHere's the highest entry from Jennifer Lopez! From her "J-Lo" album, its Latin rhythms really captivated me and became a favourite of mine, spending two weeks at #1 in 2002. 27. Avril Lavigne - ComplicatedA Canadian teenager really burst onto the scene with this song back in 2002, one that became a huge favourite of mine and made her a core artist for a few years afterwards. This spent 7 weeks at #1 on my chart, and while it was her longest stay at #1, she does have one more song to come that beats it in overall points! 26. Santana feat. Michelle Branch - I'm Feeling YouThe second collaboration between Santana and Michelle Branch, I ended up liking this one much more than the first, especially as Michelle's core status had increased since then. This was buoyed by a very long chart run, and spent 3 weeks at #1; it is Santana's highest but Michelle still has one more - the obvious one. 25. Kate Voegele - 99 TimesIf there is any album that cemented a core artist status, it has to be Kate Voegele's sophomore album "A Fine Mess". She struck while the iron was still hot from "Don't Look Away", and this upbeat breakup anthem, showing her attitude, really caught on for me, proving that she was here to stay. This spent 4 weeks at #1 and was my #1 song of 2009; still another five from her to come. 24. Christina Aguilera - Genie In A BottleIn the late 90's, a new wave of teen pop stars abounded, including several who originally appeared on the Mickey Mouse Club. Christina Aguilera was one of these, and this sultry breakthrough single was a huge favourite of mine then, and it spent 4 non-consecutive weeks at #1. Still another song from her to come. 23. Kelly Clarkson - InvincibleKelly has always been about female empowerment, and songs like this, written by Sia, have shown why Kelly's voice is just perfect for songs like this! This was my #1 song of 2015; she still has two more songs to come. 22. Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out ThereWe saw Raine Maida earlier in this set writing for Kate Voegele, now here he is with his own band Our Lady Peace! I'd enjoyed several of their songs prior to this, particularly from the "Clumsy" album, but this, which hit far beyond their native Canada and was a moderate US hit as well, became my favourite from them overall, spending four weeks at #1 for me in 2002. 21. Michelle Branch - Are You Happy NowShock crashout here! It's well known how much I was into Michelle Branch back in the day, and this album "Hotel Paper" to this date remains my favourite album of hers. This lead single was an instant hit for me after being very impressed with a live leak earlier in 2003, and spent 7 weeks at #1 on my chart, becoming my #1 song of the entire year. However, 20 songs managed to beat its score overall; this is as high as Michelle gets here!

20. A song possibly inspired by one of Pierre Trudeau's catch phrases? (It's not "Do The Fuddle Duddle".) 19. A spelling lesson from one of two sisters who had #1 hits for me in the same year. 18. A song that became an anthem for soldiers fighting in Iraq. 17. While this singer never went away in Europe and Australia, in the US this hit 13 years after her previous hit. 16. An anthem of heartbreak and not being near the one you love; despite this singer going more immature at this time, this song was a mature ballad. 15. The biggest hit by the band led by the former partner of the artist at #16. 14. A popular craft for kids; just get the scissors out and you get a string of these! 13. One of the most poisonous fictional minerals - especially fatal to a certain caped superhero. 12. I re-charted this song two years later due to a new recording by a legendary country diva. 11. I met this singer about two years after this was a huge hit on my chart. (It's not by Kate Voegele.)
