dreamofyou's Best of 2021


Recommended Posts

Posted

Cinderella soundtrack... :mandown: Whatta Man/Seven Nation Army was the only song I remember being okay? But not even the whole song, just certain moments. All the Time IS the bop that got away, should've been a multiweek #1 megasmash, and Poster Girl was good tbh! DWTD...TAOSO did suffer from too much filler indeed :sad: || CHARGER original >> remix to me, I wasn't feeling the autotune harmonies. The Lighthouse :smile: Babe, Oxytocin, long story short, cherry blossom, gold rush :clap3: good wife IS top 3 from SC, and I don't fear that! When U Saw Love ahhh a banger I yelped when she shared the snippet on Twitter :sats::sats:

Honestly could see this being on a Turn off the Light album.

Love this for Billie, surprising. Can't wait to see this on tour.

 

#66

No Doubt About It - ABBA

 

Az94MG2.jpg

 

That country twang at the beginning which turns into pop perfection.

Brilliant.

 

#65

Highly Emotional People - MARINA

I'm in the minority who loved this album and its ballads.

The production in the final chorus jesus

 

#64

The melody in the chorus wowzers.

 

#62

Not as good as I thought it would be, but it's still nice!

Just wish it was much longer.

 

#61

Sexy sexy sexy.

 

#60

gold rush - Taylor Swift

 

WnJGtCj.jpg

 

The production. Jack really served.

The lyrics, the folklore in the second verse.

Ugh

 

Relatable, soul-destroying...

 

 

Top 3 on SC I fear.

Even though I will never be a wife, I can't help but bop.

 

 

#56

The Lighthouse - Halsey

I mean... this is exactly what I needed but didn't know I needed it.

The lyrics, the production. One of the standouts from the album.

 

 

:heart:

I wanna listen to Halsey's album now!
Great Countdown, the Marina love <3

Kacey Musgraves really came through this year! :jamming:

Let's finally get into the top 30 albums of the year!

 

 

#30

Poster Girl - Zara Larsson

March 5th, 2021.

 

qtCeA8a.jpg

 

5.8

 

Well, this album was certainly something! It had its cute moments.

I just wish it was more in vein of All The Time, the bop that got away.

 

Standouts: Love Me Land & Poster Girl

 

#29

Bang - Rita Ora & Imanbek

February 12th, 2021.

 

l33iuGL.jpg

 

6.0

 

This EP was a gift for the fans, that's the best description.

The EP kinda fell flat with The One and Crazy Frog's Song.

Loved Big and Mood but they weren't enough to save it.

 

Standouts: Big & Mood

 

#28

Cinderella Soundtrack - Camila Cabello, Idina Menzel & Others

September 3rd, 2021.

 

Z9pLfGN.jpg

 

6.2

 

Dubbed as movie of the year by everyone on ATRL. Universally loved by everyone on Twitter and IMDB.

Does the soundtrack follow suit?

No.

I love Camila, we all know that. But there are only a few good songs here.

Some of the covers are certainly something, it's definitely camp I guess.

 

Standouts: Million to One, Perfect & Let's Get Loud

 

#27

goldilocks x - Tommy Genesis

September 10th, 2021.

 

ohROHWg.jpg

 

6.3

 

A massive step down from her debut album.

Don't know what else to say tbh.

 

Standouts: fuck u u know you can't make me cry, average & manifesto

 

#26

Dancing With The Devil... The Art of Starting Over - Demi Lovato

April 2nd, 2021.

 

1LGa05F.jpg

 

6.5

 

This has it's cute moments, but ultimately fell quite flat.

The tracklist has a lot of filler and just feels like a compilation of songs.

I was quite excited for the album after the 2020 single, I Love Me, but this album felt disappointing.

 

 

:heart:

 

i can consider this as a wildcard set but damn these albums really had great highs :jonny4:

videos of the year 10-6 coming v soon

10-6

 

Let's continue the boring category 

 

 

#10 Venus Fly Trap - MARINA

 

XUe71Ox.jpg

 

This video was a moment, the re-visit to her previous eras, the lil choreography.

A serve, and the song itself? Superb.

 

 

Spoiler

 

 

#9 Shapeshifter - Alessia Cara

 

AEfq5Ph.jpg

 

The wig, the visuals, the story-telling.

The way she's playing every character, an actress.

Criminally under-rated

 

 

Spoiler

 

 

#8 De Una Vez - Selena Gomez

 

4uewd6t.jpg

 

So aesthetically pleasing. Although I don't care much for the song, or the EP.

This music video was so beautiful.

 

 

Spoiler

 

 

#7 Don't Go Yet - Camila Cabello

 

lgnvkpz.jpg

 

It wouldn't be a dreamofyou 'best of' without a lil Camila mention.

Again the video is so aesthetically pleasing, the colours, the choreography, her family being in it.

Familia indeed.

 

 

Spoiler

 

 

#6 We're Good - Dua Lipa 

 

kSvhgLr.jpg

 

#FreeThaLobster

The outfits, the theme, the lobsters:clap3:

One of my favourite videos from her, the way the FN videos kept progressing.

From that DSN club video to Physical to BMH to Levitating to We're Good.

What a progression.

WE'RE GOOD yas oh yasssss! iconique lobster nation represent! 

Posted

we're good video is kinda weird but at least it's not a mess like love again :skull:  

Posted

I like VFT video as retro reference, but I don't really think her videos this era were this good tbh

Shapeshifter :jonny: a masterpiece

DGY :clap3: It's so full of colours and so Almodovar-ish :jonny2: 

Posted

Shapeshifter, Don’t Go Yet, & De Una Vez :jonny:

Posted

We're Good music video had such a fun concept, it caught me off guard :bibliahh:

De Una Vez was great visually :clap3:

 

Posted

De Una Vez amazing video :WAP:

Posted

Future Nostalgia has been such a great era, and the We're good video is not an exception, not to mention that Titanic twist :alexz:

Don't go yet :gaycat1:

Posted

Shapeshifter and We're Good this time. :heart2:

Posted

Heard 3 (2 full and 2 halves) of these songs but didn't watch any of the videos :oh: Barely watched any this year overall. Pretty sure I skimmed through We're Good + De Una Vez before, and the latter had some cool visuals from what I remember.

Ugh, Dua has been really positioned herself as the queen of music videos. The We're Good one is definitely one of the best from this year. :clap3:
