Something by Girls Aloud should be there (probably “Biology” or “Call the Shots”).

Born to Die didn't chart?

It was never pushed as an official pop single in the US - none of them were besides the SS remix. Only Video Games showed up in the lower part of the Hot 100 for only a week back when the album first dropped.

Warner deciding to release into the groove as a bside for angel is so unforgivable. Literally could have been her 3rd #1 hit.

Ribs wasn't even a single. :rip: Makes zero sense for me.

 

They should have nominated "Harleys in Hawaii", "911" and "Jump" for example.
