Kill or Save: UK No.2 Hits of the 50s

Recommended Posts

Cool design bro.

 

Cor blimey guvnah. It’s another bleedin’ Kill or Save. The seventeenth edition, in fact!

 

Big milestone hit: we’ve sifted through every single UK No.1 from before the current decade! A grand total of 1,362 chart-toppers, seven of which now with a Kill or Save title to their name. Now it’s time to have a look at some more songs which fell just short of reaching the top spot in the charts, and for now we stick with the time the Official Singles Charts all began: the 1950s.

 

We had a whale of a time voting up and down some absolute classics (and absolute crocks) from the distant past, eventually culminating in Bobby Darin’s version of Mack The Knife emerging victorious in a closely-fought finale. Off the back of this pretty extraordinary game, we arrive at this next lot of chart hits from this golden sepia era, and…oh dear. Hope your expectations weren’t heightened too much by the last lot :D

 

Fancy reliving all the action? See below for links to all Kill or Save games to date:

50s No.1s60s No.1s; 70s No.1s80s No.1s90s No.1s00s No.1s; 10s No.1s

The first rule of KoS club is that there are seven rules we have to stick to in KoS club:

  • Each song starts with 20 points (whether it deserves it or not).
  • You can vote once a day. Since we all live in different parts of the world with all sorts of different timezones, please add a date at the top of your votes to avoid any confusion (e.g. Thu 25 Jul, 25/7/24, 7/25/24 if you’re a wrongun). 
  • Each day you may add up to 4 points to and subtract 6 points from any song on the board. You can split your points between as many songs as you like. You must use all six minus points (unless it’s a round-ending turn) and give at least one plus point.
  • Placeholder posts are allowed, but if you don't edit your votes within 5 minutes, then the next person can go and do their votes.
  • Consecutive votes are not allowed.
  • Before voting, please listen to the songs of each round and vote according to your own opinions, don't vote for songs because they're high/low on the board or because of your opinions about the artist, only the song matters.
  • Make sure you copy and paste the most recent voter's scoreboard when you take your turn to score. For your own ease, ‘paste as plain text’ to get rid of the previous poster’s formatting. Then, delete their +/- scores, add yours, adjust the song’s points total and make your scores bold. Here’s a random example post from a previous game’s finale:

Now, usually we go through 5 group stages from which we decide upon 25 finalists but aww, bless it, this game is tiny! So just this once we’re gonna have to do things a bit differently. Instead, the 59 songs will be divided into two groups and whittled down to 10 for a proportionately mini finale, like so:

 

1952-56: 31 songs, 5 finalists

1957-59: 28 songs, 5 finalists

 

Are we clear? Good. Did you even fucking read any of that? Probably not. It’s a good job this gig is partially for my own amusement too. Tragic. Pffft. Go on, go Kill, go Save.

It looks like Toast forgot to add the indicated 4 points, so we should have 

 

28 Elvis Presley — Heartbreak Hotel 

 

Please would the next person to post use this score.

 

I'm still working my way through the list, hopefully I'll post some scores before midnight.
