Top 50 Singles of 2009: 45-41
45. Tinchy Stryder - Take Me Back
My sole hip-hop track on the countdown, this successfully fused an intense electro beat with unstoppable (and ungrammatical) hooks.
44. Alexandra Burke - Bad Boys
Proving that she’s more interesting than Leona, this track is so ahead of anything else she’s done that it may end up as both her opening salvo and career pinnacle.
43. Fibes, Oh Fibes & Kim Wilde - Run To You
The unexpected duet of the year, this was easily the most shimmering, romantic look back at the 80’s in a year full of retro singles.
42. Sebastian Karlsson - Serial Lovers
His most upbeat song yet, the instant melody and hook proved impossible to live up to on the subsequent album.
41. Salem Al Falir - Roxy
The most joyous sounding song about STDs that I can remember, this power-pop masterpiece redefined the genres of music that Fakir could pull off.

Alexandra's Bad Boys was such a surprise that it totally reversed my thinking of her. I do really like the album Overcome, but I suspect this is the strongest single from it...
Kim Wilde and Fibes oh Fibes, what a delightful surprise that was. Quite heavenly. And Sebastian karlsson - well i forgot about that track but it really is quite good.
