Empty Room
Sanna Nielsen
Sweden
With hints of country, “Empty Room” has a sound that would make it a successful cross-over hit and is the highest ranking ballad on this year’s list. The only potential problem lyrically is the repeated references to the moon, but she explains it in a satisfactory manner, so I’m willing to let it slip.

Not Crazy After All
Leona Daly
Ireland
This song could easily follow in the footsteps of recent hits by Duffy, Amy Winehouse, Adele, etc. (Combined, those three have sold over 3 million albums in the US.) It’s very difficult to think of a reason this wouldn’t be a hit in North America. Seriously, I’d buy it.
Editor’s Note: I would like to apologize for the unintentional delay in the posts. Blogger has this excellent feature that lets me queue posts and set dates for them to be automatically published. Well, I accidentally entered the dates incorrectly (DD/MM instead of MM/DD). Oops. I didn’t realize this until a faithful reader pointed it out to me. Thank you! It’s been corrected so the remaining songs on the list should be posted over the next few days…unless you want to wait until September 4th to see the number one song on the list.
