One of the biggest comebacks of the summer, Ciara made her way back onto the charts with "Body Party," a sultry R&B jam that added some extra heat to the summer nights. Her first Top 40 since 2009 was a chart slow burner but it eventually caught on with fans and earned 48 percent of the vote.

The first runner-up spot goes to Mariah Carey's "#Beautiful."
