This sultry, emotive take from the ex act's latest album is just the first taste of 8 Demi cuts to make the year end list.

 

holy hell. a STAN!

Rooting for no Witness on your lists. Garbage should remain as garbage, isn't it? :gaycat2:

95. GABRIEL GARZÓN-MONTANO - CRAWL

Thanks to @Lémur for showing me this one! Good to know you have taste this time. This is one of the edgier songs on my list.

94. SAM OUTLAW - BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS

 

81Jv9o4YG6L._SL1500_.jpg

29 plays

It may be country, but it's good country! A California soaked, soft rock tinged Americana tune, Bottomless Mimosas is one of the year's oddest empowerment anthems lyrically, but also one of the best.

93. TOVE LO - BITCHES

 

Tove_Lo_-_Blue_Lips.png

29 plays

I kinda disliked this song when it was first featured on the Fairy Dust short film, so I was surprised when it became one of my favorite songs on Blue Lips (which, contrary to popular opinion, is better than Lady Wood).

92. IMAGINE DRAGONS - DANCING IN THE DARK

 

61B4QYGD0yL._SL1200_.jpg

30 plays

I'm pretty sure every song on this album made it on this list, so it wasn't necessarily my favorite from the album, but the album was strong enough to land all of its tracks on the list. Still, a groovy R&B track was unexpected for the end of an Imagine Dragons album

91. BLACKBEAR - DOUBLE

 

blackbear-digital-druglord.jpg

30 plays

Although Do Re Mi got all the attention, Double was the actual album standout in my opinion. It's lowkey and slick in all the right ways, and not overly pretentious like a good amount of the singer's tracks (and tweets).

90. ZAYNA/SIA - DUSK TILL DAWN

Dusk_Till_Dawn_Zayn_Malik.jpg

30 plays

Zayn kinda lost his spark after his debut, but this Sia assisted track is a cute cinematic love song reminiscent of a 50SOG track.

89. NIALL HORAN - SLOW HANDS

Slow_Hands_-_Niall_Horan.jpg

30 plays

What's this? Niall outdoing Zayn by a single position? Well, it's deserved. Slow Hands was an amazing, if expected, slow jam from the former 1D member. Spoiler alert: this concludes the 1D tracks on this list.

88. MANSIONZ - MY BELOVED

d684e808e01d59b5a16069d60f25c64d.1000x1000x1.jpg

30 plays

Not gonna lie, I first checked out this album because I thought the album cover was some homoerotic allusion to the contents therein, but what I actually heard was about just as enticing. Much like Double in the last update, the best song on the album was not the most well known.

87. SUFJAN STEVENS (& FRIENDS) - SATURN

file

30 plays

Although it never quite reached the highs of Carrie & Lowell, Planetarium was a quite strong project that mixed the electro-schizophrenia of Age of Adz with the subdued low-fi of Carrie & Lowell.

86. KATY PERRY - MIND MAZE

252521497342870.jpg?itok=puGlEwc6

31 plays

This song honestly gets more hate than it deserved! Is it the best on Witness? No. But it's a new step in an interesting direction for Katy, and the autotuned madness of the chorus is lowkey infection. Not to mention the highlight of the song - the electronic/vocoder breakdown at the end of the track.

I just started getting into Sufjan Stevens this year (CMBYN its power). :jonny:

 

 

 

... and is that Niall comment a sign (of the times) that Hazza isn’t coming? :chick3:

Bitches :katie2: I kinda really hate all the autotune in Mind Maze :emofish:

85. JOHN MAYER - MOVING ON AND GETTING OVER

220px-JohnMayerTSfE.jpg

31 plays

A breakup with Katy Perry and a few years break made for what is possibly Mayer's greatest album.Moving On and Getting Over is possibly the greatest example of the stylistic shift of the album.

84. KYGO/ELLIE GOULDING - FIRST TIME

32521cd543dbeb447b9eb90cc89bf189.1000x1000x1.jpg

31 plays

Although it doesn't quite reach the highs of Delirium, First Time was an enjoyable bridge for the wait between albums. It may be a Closer clone, but Closer was one of my top 10 songs of last year!

83. CARDI B - BODAK YELLOW

b15ce4ad5ab3346f90bebf66916c8de9.1000x1000x1.jpg

31 plays

Hardly any rap songs made my year end list, but Bodak Yellow was THAT BOP. I don't think anyone expected Cardi to churn out one of the year's biggest hits, but I don't think anyone's complaining now.

82. BAD SUNS - THIS WAS A HOME ONCE

7c79f45703a21e34f73a3c894f230bc7.1000x1000x1.jpg

31 plays

I might be one of the biggest Bad Suns stans on here, and it's always hard to wait a couple years between albums, but this stand alone single helped made the wait a little easier.

81. MARTIN GARRIX/TROYE SIVAN - THERE FOR YOU

We have to support our fellow gays! A bop!

80. CLEAN BANDIT / JULIA MICHAELS - I MISS YOU

b0839033e8dde325aa63afd5964014e7.1000x1000x1.jpg

32 plays

Julia and Clean Bandit both had BIG years for me, and this is just a taste of what's to come for both. The song's a lowkey bop with a simple but effortlessly catchy hook.

79. JOHN MAYER - EMOJI OF A WAVE

220px-JohnMayerTSfE.jpg

32 plays

John gets extra points for the creative title. This is one of the strongest tracks on Mayer's tracks. Unlike Moving On and Getting Over, this one's more reminiscent of his earlier works.

77. JAX JONES / DEMI LOVATO / STEFFLON DON - INSTRUCTION

Jax_Jones_Instruction.jpg

32 plays

I still don't get the sriracha sauce album cover, but a bop is a bop! This one deserved better stateside.

 

38pVpbQ.png

 

77. NOAH CYRUS - STAY TOGETHER

Noah-Cyrus-Stay-Together-1492175994-compressed.jpg

32 plays

Almost Famous definitely outsold, but this was a cute early summer bop to bridge the gap between pop girl releases.

76. MUNA - I KNOW A PLACE

50ec04560aca813c8ff736068663cb16.1000x1000x1.jpg

32 plays

Big thanks to @Citrus for showing me this one. This is one of the best lesbian-pop songs I've heard, and manages to combine a sense of urgency with fresh, club ready synths successfully to create what should be an LGBT anthem.
