Great songs. Although 'Blow' didn't chart for me out of these (the others all did!), I was quite impressed by how well it worked!

I absolutely love to see "Higher love" in your Top 10. It is one of the biggest hits in 2019 for me too.

5. The Cranberries - Wake Me When It's Over PEAK: #1 (2 weeks), 28 weeks Upon hearing "All Over Now", I knew the final Cranberries album was going to be a good one. But I didn't expect to be blown away even more with ANOTHER song from it! "Wake Me When It's Over" definitely has their classic sound all over it, and due to this positive reception, it reached #1 on my chart for two weeks, spending a total of 28 weeks on overall! If there was a way to go out, these guys did it with a bang and did their late lead singer Dolores O'Riordan justice with the final songs she recorded being among her best ever. 4. Elton John & Taron Egerton - (I'm Gonna) Love Me Again PEAK: #1 (1 week), 28 weeks One of my themes over the past few years has been "nostalgia always wins", with artists from the 70's, 80's and 90's recapturing past glories with huge hits on my chart echoing their classic styles. Given this song was written for the biopic "Rocketman", it's clear that Elton John was aiming for a song that would fit in well with his classics. Teaming up with the actor who played him, Taron Egerton, this upbeat song reminiscent of his classic hits, powered by nostalgia, became a #1 for a single week on my chart, and having enough longevity to have my #4 song of the year! At age 72, Elton's still got what it takes to do a memorable song! 3. Lady Antebellum - What If I Never Get Over You PEAK: #1 (2 weeks), 28 weeks Some songs just have that emotional power to tug at the heartstrings. And this song, by Lady Antebellum, certainly had that effect on me. It's a very relateable song that anyone who's been in a relationship that, despite being over, their mind just can't get over no matter how hard they try can relate to, and the lyrics honestly really felt like they spoke to me directly. I didn't think they'd ever top their 2010 hit "Need You Now", which was in my top 10 that year, but this song did that and more, as it spent two weeks at #1 and 28 weeks in my top 100. Such a well-written song really has the power to touch many people emotionally, and this song certainly did its job in that regard.

'What If I Never Get Over You' was incredible! I'm gonna guess that your no. 1 and no. 2 are "Old Town Road" and "Dance Monkey"

2. Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down PEAK: #1 (3 weeks), 28 weeks At #2 for the year, we have Taylor Swift with easily her biggest hit so far on my chart. Prior to "You Need To Calm Down", she had never spent more than two weeks at #2 - this spent three weeks, followed by seven weeks at #2. There were many reasons why I enjoyed this song as much as it did - its lyrical content attacked homophobia and its music video was just a lot of fun and fitting with the song's subject matter. This capped off a very successful decade for Taylor, where she had nine #1's overall in the 2010's. But ultimately, on my year-end chart... Taylor fell short of the #1, but still her best performance to date! 1. Tyler Hilton feat. Kate Voegele - When The Night Moves PEAK: #1 (4 weeks), 43 weeks Was there ever any doubt here? I enjoyed several Tyler Hilton songs back in the mid-2000's, with "When It Comes" reaching my #2 spot. After a while, I lost track of him, though he did hit with "Prince Of Nothing Charming" in the early 2010's. However, what really got my attention back was his consistent touring with my favourite singer, Kate Voegele. This sparked a renewal of interest, and it also inspired several musical collaborations between the duo, including the double album "Live In London" with one disc of each singer's performances and several bonus track collaborations. These collaborations also led to several tracks on Tyler's latest album "City On Fire", including the #1 hit "Overtime" which was co-written by both singers. And when the album came out, this song was the instant standout - in no small part due to Kate contributing vocals to it. It had a high debut and quick rise to #1, where it spent four weeks, and ended up with a 43-week run in the top 100 - the third longest run ever. Kate Voegele has had history with year-end #1's - so far she has had "Only Fooling Myself" (2008), "99 Times" (2009), "Heart In Chains" (2011), "Must Be Summertime" (2016) and now "When The Night Moves" (2019). Congratulations, Tyler and Kate on an amazing song... a well-deserved #1 of 2019!

Nice to see "When the night moves" at the top. Sadly all other songs from your Top 5 failed to enter my chart.
