Was gonna go for 'Work', but 'Black Beatles' is p much my song of last year so...

Lennon, Elvis, Hendrix etc (dog latin), Friday, 6 January 2017 13:09 (seven years ago) link

work work work work work

niels, Friday, 6 January 2017 13:22 (seven years ago) link

would vote for 'Work' if it was called 'WURGH' like it should be

nashwan, Friday, 6 January 2017 13:26 (seven years ago) link

"Cheap Thrills" just over "Work." Not a great year for the top spot imo.

I like One Dance for the obvious reasons, which are able to mitigate Drake's obnoxiousness (I'll text you back when I feel like it, okay?)

But yeah this is Black Beatles

U2 (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 6 January 2017 16:01 (seven years ago) link

Just 10 for the whole year? Wow.

Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Friday, 6 January 2017 16:04 (seven years ago) link

any opinion on any of them scik?

low amount of #1s isn't really a new trend

lex pretend, Friday, 6 January 2017 16:09 (seven years ago) link

I assumed I'd like Black Beatles but I just listened to it and it's wack

listen to it again!

"black beatles", "cheap thrills", and the biebers are alright. mostly an inoffensive bunch tbh, there's no "rude" this year (i don't really hate the chainsmokers like most people even if it's clear they're hacks)

yeh that synth hook wormed its way in my head for a fortnight but in the end it was p bad

Spottie, Friday, 6 January 2017 18:41 (seven years ago) link

who is extremely unqualified to review this pop album (BradNelson), Friday, 6 January 2017 18:48 (seven years ago) link

"Black Beatles" is the best #1 since Taylor Swift's "Blank Space"

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 6 January 2017 18:59 (seven years ago) link

Steady airplay walloped me into liking Justin T's sunshine in his pocket, and "Sorry" is Biebs' best ode to being a dickhead. That's all I can handle.

Haha Brad otm

U2 (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 7 January 2017 02:50 (seven years ago) link

"Sorry"

Bee OK, Saturday, 7 January 2017 03:25 (seven years ago) link

Black Beatles is one of the best #1s of the decade, hands down. Goons feel fre to ignore me (lol like I even needed to say anything) but for me the production feels so hypnagogic. And rtc otm about how perfectly the whole Mannequin Challenge captures the absolute spectrality of the track

U2 (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 7 January 2017 04:14 (seven years ago) link

since black beatles is obv gonna win i voted for one dance, another one of my fav songs of the year

i guess i would rank them

1 one dance
2 sorry
3 black beatles
4 work
5 closer
6 love yourself
7 cheap thrills
8 panda
9 pillowtalk
10 cant stop the feeling

ive truly never understood the hate for "closer" like aside from the fact that the chainsmokers themselves are fairly detestable as humans... i find it to be *easily* their most tolerable song? it's very easy to listen to and has a good chorus.

cheap thrills was one i wanted to dislike but it won me over. i think the one w/ kendrick that's sort of the sequel might actually be better tho.

I think I agree with this but also I have not heard and refuse to listen to "One Dance"

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Sunday, 8 January 2017 02:12 (seven years ago) link

Personally I think the Chainsmokers' music is their most loathsome aspect

example (crüt), Sunday, 8 January 2017 03:22 (seven years ago) link

everything good about "closer" is thanks to halsey, who unsurprisingly gets little reward

p sure sorry was the only one of these i heard in 2016. just listened to black beatles and i thought it was underwhelming

dynamicinterface, Thursday, 12 January 2017 00:17 (seven years ago) link

couple more times and you'll be singing along to all the ad-libs

Spottie, Thursday, 12 January 2017 00:19 (seven years ago) link

Gucci Mane's keystone verse brings thankful tears to my eyes

example (crüt), Thursday, 12 January 2017 00:27 (seven years ago) link

i mean i made it like 6 months without every hearing it so i'm probably good. i liked their first album plenty tho

dynamicinterface, Thursday, 12 January 2017 00:28 (seven years ago) link

Lex: I think the only one I've knowingly heard is Sorry, which I thought was alright but not as good as Bieber's previous single. I'm almost completely out of the loop with chart hits since daughter arrived.
