Pipa's Top 100 of 2013 (FULL CHART!)

[Pipa]

The chart will be starting very soon, but first, who do you think made it to #1? Vote now! (And yes, I realize Devin did this exact same thing, but hey, unoriginality is my game.)

[Devin]

I'm guessing "Royals," just because I think it spent the longest on your chart (not sure though).

[josh]

I voted for Of Monsters and Men just because I always bug you about them.

[Zeebz]

Hoping for "Royals". I'll be looking forward to this.

[Pipa]

So it begins. If you're expecting this chart to be based solely on chart positions, or even longevity, be prepared for a ton of shockers. Here's #100-91:

100. Paramore - Now


99. The Sheepdogs - How Late, How Long


98. Imaginary Cities - Bells of Cologne


97. City and Colour - The Lonely Life


96. The Airborne Toxic Event - Hell and Back


95. Korn - Never Never


94. Trivium - Strife


93. Young the Giant - It's About Time


92. Zedd feat. Hayley Williams - Stay the Night


91. Daft Punk - Doin' It Right

[Pipa]

Because they were so popular last year, I've put up snippets of 100-91. Enjoy!

[josh]

Go Zedd! Did you chart/like "Clarity" or "Spectrum" ? Just wondering haha.

No, I'm a total rockist and only cared once Hayley Williams did a song with him. Hey, I'm not gonna lie to ya.

[josh]

Oh! That makes sense. I was surprised to see "Stay the Night" made it, so that makes sense! :)

That isn't to say I don't seek out music by EDM artists. Avicii went top 10 with "Levels".

[WotUNeed]

Strong start! Was surprised by how good that Airborne Toxic Event song ended up being. Cool seeing more Sheepdogs, Imaginary Cities, and Young the Giant. Nice City and Colour song; I liked the one you used last year too. (You did chart "Weightless" right?) Really should start exploring that catalogue. Anyway the other five were good too. Looking forward to the rest!

Yes I did; it went top 10 and was my #64 song of 2012. Their songs have been struggling this era, but I hope they release "Harder Than Stone" soon.

[Juan Carlos]

I'll also go with "Royals".

---

Good to see "Now", "Stay the Night" and "Doin' It Right" in the first set of songs.

[Pipa]

90. Capital Cities - Kangaroo Court


89. Lady Gaga - Applause


88. OneRepublic - Counting Stars


87. Shinedown - I'll Follow You


86. Jimmy Eat World - I Will Steal You Back


85. Monster Truck - Sweet Mountain River


84. The Lumineers - Stubborn Love


83. illScarlett - My Money


82. Fun - Carry On


81. Danko Jones - I Believed In God

[Pipa]

Almost forgot...

Audio (90-81)

[Juan Carlos]

"Kangaroo Court", "Applause", "Counting Stars", "Stubborn Love" and "Carry On" are the ones I like in this set.

[WotUNeed]

Slept on "Kangaroo Court", but that's a good song. Shinedown song was not what I expected, but also nice. Hadn't been familiar with illScarlett; very cool. First exposure to Monster Truck also; enjoyed that too. Danko Jones song was fairly solid too. The rest are songs I considered for my own chart ("Carry On", which lost out to "Why Am I the One") or songs we have in common (although "I Will Steal You Back" is significantly lower for you than for me). Overall, another strong set!

Its complete nonexistence on the charts (even my station which still plays "Big Casino" didn't add it) is ultimately what made it suffer in the end. It just made it too easy for it to fall off the wayside.

80. Tegan and Sara - Closer


79. Blue October - Bleed Out


78. Three Days Grace - Misery Loves My Company


77. Alter Bridge - Addicted to Pain

[WotUNeed]

More great songs here. Of the ones I hadn't previously heard, "Bleed Out", "One Light", "Gang of Rhythm" (yay CSNY mention), "Mother", "Heaven on Earth", "Pick Me Up", and "Going with You" were the highlights. Great to see The Fray here! I like this sound for them; will be interesting to see what the rest of the album is like. Also happy to see Maroon 5, A7X, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Tegan and Sara represented.

[Pipa]

Merry Christmas!

Audio (60-51)

[Juan Carlos]

From #61 - #70: Good to see "Love Don't Die", "Lucky Strike", "Hey Brother" (not so into folktronica, but it's good) and "Supersoaker". "Daylight"

From #51 - #60: So fantastic to see "Carried Away"! Wish it have made the Top 50 though. "The Way It Was" and "Lover of the Light" are also good.

[WotUNeed]

Yay for "Here's to Us", "Carried Away", "The Way It Was", "Miracle Mile", and "Lover of the Light"! All very good. Of the other five (which I'd heard very little or not at all), "It Ain't Right" was my favorite. No idea who One Bad Son is but that was a great listen. Not sure why I didn't check out the Foals song sooner; also good. Sabbath / STP fairly reliable; I liked both of those. "Hearts like Ours" nice too. Looking forward to the top half!
