Lucky year number 7 of the countdown is here! Honestly I think this year was very strong compared to recent for music but I think it lost some steam by the end of the year but a really strong first half for sure. As always this will track songs from November 1st 2022 to November 1st 2023. This gives songs in Nov and Dec a fair chance in the countdown.

Ed Sheeran - Eyes Closed
Ed is not an artist I typically really get into but I do have a new appreciation for him. I did see him in concert this year and I can't lie he put on maybe the best performance I have ever seen, and I saw the Eras tour prior. Ed really is so talented, unfortunately his album I did not really love but it was a much sadder album. This song I must say I really loved though and I appreciate him stripping his music back.
Countdown History: This is Ed's 4th entry! His highest remains with his collaboration, Bam Bam with Camilla Cabello. Will he top it this year?
In at 47....

Mimi Webb - Last Train to London
I liked Mimis debut album. It was good it was not like the best album but I think for a debut it was solid. There were a lot of bops she released and this is one of those songs that stood out to me. I really liked this track, and I liked getting a different side of her.
Countdown History: This is Mimis 3rd entry. Her highest came in last year at #4 with House on Fire. Can she outdo herself this year?
