Walk The Moon – Year Of 2015


So Hits 1 counted down their Top 45 songs of 2015 just earlier today. I guess these results were based on the opinions of the Wutchuwant Crew. Some of these results don't seem accurate enough to have been based on airplay. So I'll just go ahead and say that this was not the best year-end countdown ever. Let's just get to it right now.


Last Year's #1 Song: OneRepublic – Counting Stars
The Countdown (parenthetical number indicates the song's peak position)
45. X Ambassadors – Renegades (#7)*
44. Little Mix – Black Magic (#4)*
43. David Guetta/Nicki Minaj/Bebe Rexha/Afrojack – Hey Mama (#9)
42. R. City/Adam Levine – Locked Away (#5)*
41. MKTO – American Dream (#3)
40. Daya – Hide Away (#8)*
39. Vance Joy – Riptide (#12)
38. OneRepublic – I Lived (#4)
37. Taylor Swift – Shake It Off (#1) [12 Weeks In 2014]
36. Olly Murs/Travie McCoy – Wrapped Up (#9)
35. Bea Miller – Fire N Gold (#10)
34. The Vamps/Demi Lovato – Somebody To You (#5)
33. Meghan Trainor – Lips Are Movin' (#4)
32. Rachel Platten – Fight Song (#4)
31. Fifth Harmony – Worth It (#9)*
30. Echosmith – Bright (#10)
29. Imagine Dragons – I Bet My Life (#4)
28. Sam Smith – I'm Not The Only One (#4)
27. Demi Lovato – Cool For The Summer (#2)
26. Taylor Swift – Wildest Dreams (#1) [1 Week]*
25. All Time Low – Something's Gotta Give (#6)
24. Hozier – Take Me To Church (#5)
23. The Weeknd – Can't Feel My Face (#1) [1 Week]*
22. Nick Jonas – Jealous (#6)
21. Twenty One Pilots – Tear In My Heart (#7)
20. One Direction – Night Changes (#4)
19. Ella Henderson – Ghost (#5)
18. One Direction – Drag Me Down (#1) [1 Week]*
17. Sheppard – Geronimo (#8)
16. Shawn Mendes – Stitches (#1) [3 Weeks]*
15. Taylor Swift – Bad Blood (#1) [2 Weeks]
14. Wiz Khalifa/Charlie Puth – See You Again (#1) [4 Weeks]*
13. Fall Out Boy – Centuries (#1) [2 Weeks]
12. Tove Lo – Talking Body (#3)
11. Ellie Goulding – Love Me Like You Do (#1) [2 Weeks]
10. Maroon 5 – Sugar (#1) [2 Weeks]
  9. Ed Sheeran – Photograph (#1) [1 Week]*
  8. Jason Derulo – Want To Want Me (#3)
  7. Taylor Swift – Blank Space (#1) [5 Weeks / 1 Week In 2014]
  6. Fall Out Boy – Uma Thurman (#5)
  5. Taylor Swift – Style (#1) [1 Week]
  4. Andy Grammer – Honey I'm Good (#1) [1 Week]
  3. Ed Sheeran – Thinking Out Loud (#1) [3 Weeks]*
  2. Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars – Uptown Funk (#1) [4 Weeks]
  1. Walk The Moon – Shut Up and Dance (#1) [12 Weeks] {1st Year At #1}*

*Song Is Still Charting

Shut Up and Blurb With Me!
~ I'm very fascinated by the fact that Taylor Swift – Style has been ranked higher than Blank Space. I don't understand!!! You're seriously ranking a one-week #1 song higher than a six-week #1 song?!?! Why?!?!?!?!?!

~ Speaking of Taylor Swift, she has 5 songs on here. 5 songs out of 45 total are Taylor Swift.

~ Going back to Blank Space, the song spent quite a while in the Top 10 and the Top 5. I'm also shocked it was ranked lower than Honey I'm Good, which fell down the countdown relatively quickly after that one week at #1, spending very few weeks in the Top 10, especially the Top 5.

~ Fall Out Boy – Uma Thurman and Jason Derulo – Want To Want Me never hit #1, but somehow made it into the Top 10.

~ Vance Joy – Riptide is the only song in this list that never hit the Top 10.

~ Wiz Khalifa/Charlie Puth – See You Again really seemed like a song I was sure would be a Top 10 contender for this list. I guess I was incorrect.

~ Quite a few songs peaked at #4 this year.

~ Twenty One Pilots – Tear In My Heart and Sheppard – Geronimo were definitely ranked way too high. It was their obnoxiously long tenures that brought them this high. However, Tear In My Heart was in the #9 to #11 range for seemingly forever while Geronimo rarely spent much time that high, but somehow got ranked higher than Tear In My Heart in this list.

~ Taylor Swift – Shake It Off is the only song on this list that was ranked in last year's Top 45 of the year.

~ I'm kind of surprised Renegades made it on this list. It seemed a little too new. But am I happy about it making it on? Hell yeah!

~ David Guetta/Nicki Minaj/Afrojack – Hey Mama was ranked way too low in my opinion.

~ Of course, the annoying Olly Murs/Travie McCoy – Wrapped Up made it on this list.

~ I feel like One Direction – Night Changes should've been ranked just a little lower.

~ There were some songs like Flo Rida/Sage The Gemini/Lookas – GDFR, Charlie Puth/Meghan Trainor – Marvin Gaye, Omi – Cheerleader, and Nick Jonas – Chains that surprisingly did not make this list.

~ Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars – Uptown Funk had a typical #1 song tenure on this countdown not staying way too long, and apparently was qualified for the #2 spot of the year. At least it's not #1.

~ Am I happy about the #1 song? No. But did I expect it? Yes, I did. The song is still in the Top 10 and tied the record for most weeks at #1 with the #37 song on this list. I definitely saw this coming and I'm not surprised, but I'm definitely not happy.


Alright guys! That was my review of Hits 1's Top 45 of 2015! I hope you enjoyed! Did you agree with these rankings and/or any of my opinions? Did you disagree? Let me know in the comments down below! My Top 45 Songs of 2015 post is on its way! I know I've kept you waiting, but this post is right around the corner. So that'll be coming very soon.

In conclusion, Merry Christmas from your fellow Weekend Countdown blogger, Adrian Carrazco.

  1. I'm actually stunned one song didn't make it:

    Sam Hunt- Take Your Time

    How did this song not make this chart?

  21. Interesting chart. As already mentioned, I'm surprised that "Take Your Time", "Ex's And Oh's", and "Cheerleader" didn't make it on. Also, even for how new it is, I'm really surprised "Hello" isn't anywhere on this list. It has spent 7 weeks at number one, after all. But, as you said, there was clearly a great deal of subjectivity in compiling this list, as opposed to strictly looking at airplay and chart success.

    You listed two songs on this chart as "Really old and will hate if they don't leave." Don't worry, I suspect they will have left by next year's year-end countdown haha.

  22. You know, I know this post is way old and this comment does feel redundant, especially since I did a full breakdown of 2015's Year-End Hot 100 WITH the songs from this list that weren't on that one, but I noticed that there was only one song in this 45 that I would put in red, going by the six-point scale (red = shit, turquoise = bad, yellow = meh, pink = decent, blue = good, green = great). In fact...

    Yeah, I'm being way too nice to this one. But I said it before and I'll say it again, I absolutely loved this year, and 2016 will need to do a lot to match up to it.
