Not you comparing Levitating to The Ketchup Song :ahh: i never even thought about that. I need to listen to both songs and compare them.

 

It really is a classic tho.

ahhhhhh so many classics, but im super glad u highlighted ok crazy from tei shi's ep. i really like the fast paced nature of it and her deadpan delivery because of how it goes with the lyrics and the story of her basically being a demented stalker. but i might reading too much into it because she's not the most emotive singer in general :dies:

blinding lights and levitating yuh yuh yuh

Blinding Lights and Levitating  :clap3: 

 

I don't see anything about Asereje in Levitating though  :skull:

baby it's automatic :WAP: 

blinding lights and levitating too :clap3:

blinding lights is pretty inescapable, idk if its my favourite single he's ever done but its almost hard to even try to dislike it.. i feel like its almost universal

 

levitating is interesting!  i liked the remix, but weirdly enough its not actually one of my stand outs from the album even though i do like it.

did not know about the kali uchis album so i will check that out.  shout out to flo milli though :bop:

Not Levitating sounding like The Ketchup Song :deadbanana: Okay girl.

 

Soul Control literally makes my body shake any time I hear the song. Blinding Lights is flawless and deserves all its success honestly. Love is a Drug is a great pick! Been stuck in my head all day actually haha.

stay tonight :jonny5: best kpop song this year and it's only a pre-release

87.  dua lipa - levitating

genre: nu disco

for fans of: yeah, im not doing this for dua either. 

yeah, one of my fave future nostalgia tracks.  me, personally? i enjoy it because the fast paced singing reminds me of the ketchup song by asereje.  thats a classic too.  levitating got many remixes, but im going with the original.  the dababy version is a good remix though and i will not accept slander of it!  this is the gay bop that we all thought should be a single only for it to inevitably flop (in america at least).  a classic atrl moment and a classic atrl song.

A bop! I've recently really gotten into it as i didnt care for it (nor its 50 remixes) but we do love it now. The ketchup song comparison has me weak af but beside that its a great choice!

oh and Brandy? Okkkkk i see it

omg levitating reminded me of the ketchup song as well :bibliahh:

blinding lights is definitely a song for the ages!

aqui yo mando is great! they should do another song together :alexz:

Kerosene is so good ahhhh, made me think the album would slap but... :mandown: only hurd Tei Shi recently and she bops :clap3:

Pussycat Doll is great but May I is on another level :WAP: Levitating a stun :smitten: Blinding Lights and Soul Control cute :jamming:

Love Is A Drug is good but not my fave on the album :keir: Summer Love and Stay Tonight are way too low :emofish:

Come Outside is so funny bc of the adlibs :toofunny3: one of my faves on their album

Posted

Soul Control has got to be Top 3 on my favorite WYP tracks. Sadly, I did not like Yves Tumor's album, although I'll admit that he blends sounds in a really cohesive way.

 

Aquí Yo Mando has a great beat. I dig it. :jamming:

I just learned about Keresone few days ago and this is ****ing slayage!

Soul Control and BL :clap3: 

Levitating is nice jam :katie2:

You have ruined me with the Ketchup song comparison.....I don't even need to relisten to it to hear it.....

Soul Control is a triumph :jonny5:

Kerosene! Soul Control! :flame:

Blinding Lights is more of a 2019 song for me. Thats when I overplayed it. So imagine how much I suffered hearing it everywhere this year :deadbanana4:

PS: Loud Places by Jamie xx :heart:

129.  agnes - fingers crossed

genre: dance pop, house

for fans of: rachel stevens, robyn

this is basically an outtake of her last ep? it sounds like it, got a really nice chorus and her powerful vocals fits dance pop amazingly

Oh my god i forgot about this song :skull: i used to listen to this all the time OMG

 

love not loving you, borderline & august acclaim :clap3:

96.  chung ha - stay tonight

genre: future house, kpop

for fans of: songs with multiple choruses, edm-style kpop.

this song is basically a bunch of choruses stuck together.  thats what all the best kpop songs are anyway, and they attach together in a way that builds and builds into a perfectly addicting non-chorus.  all parts of the song are equally addictive.

This is too low. I demand a RECOUNT!!! :angry:

 

Also another the acclaim for superpower, soul control & aqui no mando :clap3:

 

Blinding Lights and Levitating should be higher. Period :clap3:

Posted

Are artists gonna make multiple appearances?

 

Great set though, and I prefer the Levitating Remix + Dua got washed on her own song. which tends to happen when you have no personality or charisma.

yes, there are multiple appearences, but honestly not *that* many of them.  yeah dababy felt like a breath of fresh air bc he's got a strong persona and presence.  i would not mind him popping up on more pop remixes...

i only liked two songs on the album too, like, too much filler and indistinguishable songs forme.  jt is really good at dumb adlibs tbh, she's the talent of the group i hope she has a solo project at some point.

i prefer his other inescapable single, cant feel my face tbh (though.... the hills was bigger but w/e).  blinding lights is another great addition to his catalogue tho.  you would like the kali album!  its super enjoyable and pretty universial sounding without being generic.

yeah she seems like that on most of her song but talk about using her strengths etc.  i love songs about being a stalker tbh a lot of great classics are stalker anthems.

Love Is a Drug + OK crazy :jamming: "i love love how this chorus is high energy but she delivers it in the most deadpan, flat way." Same, it's very interesting. #87-89, a 1-2-3 punch oh yes! Blinding Lights is an obvious 2020 highlight and Soul Control is my favorite from WYP? :sats::sats::sats:

soul control is a great choice for fave!  it is the superior version of ooh la la

Kerosene is so hot + the amazing video

 

yay BL + Dior. I can’t tell if the line is really that homophobic or not but oh well I guess that’s up to each of us. Song is def an anthem.  Kali’s album was great. Levitating, that’s just... a song I can’t get into that much. Beautiful gowns, though.

tbh i didn't realize how good the video was until a few days ago.  voty? yeah i never do those.

 

tbh, you know me i rarely pay attention to the lyrics so maybe thats my bad.  i knew you were an obsessed levitating hater, hopefully you end up chooseing the superior song.

80.  daoko - 御伽の街

genre: hip pop, electropop

for fans of: shygirl, bree runway

daoko is an extremely interesting artist to me.  she seems to be releasing 200,000 projects a year so im never really sure whats considered essential and not, but this single early on in the year really caught my attention.  its a nice hip hop/electropop combo thats super fresh sounding.  the chanted house-ish chorus is not a by-the-numbers type song.  

 

79.  coucou chloe - drop ten

genre: """deconstructed club"""

for fans of: arca, shygirl

ok, her first couple eps show a lot of promise, but it feels like she struggled to merge all of her influences into a coherent sound.  that is no longer a problem with the two absolute classics she released this year.  this is basically mumblecore meets crunk.  its got a nice beat that switches up, and you even get a dog barking it at one point in the song.  

 

78.  victoria monet - experience

genre: nu disco

for fans of: old school blood orange, ariana

wouldn't it have been amazing if ariana went down the disco route instead of positions? jk, positions is an amazing album, but it still would have been cool.  victoria got hype for working with ariana on tun, and now she released her solo music.  experience is a collaboration with sg lewis (who seems to be blowing up) and khalid (who sounds amazing here).  it reminds me of ooold decade old dev hynes productions, put into the new era.  thats a good thing btw.

 

77.  loona - why not?

genre: bubblegum, dancepop

for fans of: f(x)

finally.  finally FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have been waiting for loona to take modern kpop trends and turn it into their quirky cutsey aesthetic and after years of waiting, it finally happened.  one of the best sounds that you can do in kpop is have harder hitting verses with cutsey high pitched vocals on the chorus, this is definitely the best thing the giant group has done.  ever.  and its better than any loona adjacent song with the exception of girl front obv.

 

76.  ela minus - megapunk

genre: tech house

for fans of: kelly lee owens?

omg, yes.  i am so glad i discovered this girl.  she's got amazing gifts.  her songs are pretty simple ideas that just build over time, but what makes them stand out are her chanted, slogan-like lyrics.  her lyrics are surprisingly uplifting and confident and make me feel happy.  seriously, get into her, the most underrated artist this year imo.

 

75.  love regenerator - live without your love

genre: house, acid house

for fans of: calvin harris, weeknd

yeah am loving the early 2000s techno aesthetic being used in pop music now.  PLEASE, can we have more of it in the future?  lacey kills the vocals on this song and its definitely the best thing calvin harris has done in a minute or five.

 

74.  bree runway - atm

genre: hip pop

for fans of: azealia, m.i.a.

MISSY! her best guest verse this year, poor dua and madonnas.  its got a stuttered, addictive chorus, tons and tons of personality, and i stole this from @Claw but i love all hip hop songs that say "vagina."  if they do that you know its gonna be a classic.

 

73.  sufjan stevens - america

genre: art pop

for fans of: troye sivan

this is a 12 minute progressive pop masterpiece.  i know the subject matter is trite tbh but i dont care.  its very very hard to make a 12 minute song interesting and good but he doesn't waste a single second.

 

72.  bad bunny - safeera

genre: hip hop, reggaeton

for fans of: music in general

ok i lied, THIS is the best missy elliott appearence.  any song that samples get ur freak on is a friend of mine.  its one of those songs that has multiple 'sections' and feels like a few songs slapped together to some, but it feels like a coherent journey just like what our friend sufjan concocted one position earlier.  bad bunny doubters should check out this song to be converted.

 

71.  eartheater - concealer

genre: synth pop, art pop

for fans of: coucou chloe, arca

eartheaters discography is mostly some avant folk that i frankly have a hard time getting into.  she has a vision and i respect it, but i guess im just a ***** for synths so with this entry she gave me what i want.  if you like "deconstructed club" type music you'd probably like it.  its a cute little synth pop mumblecore track with an addictive chorus.
