So, apparently people hate Coldplay because they sold out? I don't know what's with you guys, but I don't really mind the new direction they're going.
25. Adventure Of A Lifetime by Coldplay
YE position: #95
Unlike when most bands change direction of their style, Coldplay is that one band that I feel has constantly gotten better overtime. I mean, Yellow and Clocks were shit, especially Yellow. But almost everything from Viva La Vida on-wards I feel like this band just doesn't disappoint me as much as they used to. And no where is that more obvious than in their latest albums, A Head Full Of Dreams, which I actually quite like a lot. But we're talking about their singles, and Adventure Of A Lifetime is just amazing imo. I love the more funk/disco styled production, Chris' voice is great, and I just love how this song ends with the woo-hoo's. And yet, this isn't even the best song off the album.

Oh hey, a Michael Jackson song... from 2015!
24. Can't Feel My Face by The Weeknd
YE position: #72
Yeah, everyone has pretty much said all they have about this song. It feels like something that Michael Jackson would have released, and The Weeknd here sounds like Michael is some spots. And I think that's what makes this song, it's a catchy pop/R&B tune done right by someone who before hand was not even a blimp on the pop chart. Release this as the 2nd single off of his 2nd album and now he's become a pop star. And I'm glad this song did as well as it did.

This song is pretty much perfect... except it's actually not.
23. Perfect by One Direction
YE position: #100
Yeah, yeah, it's basically Style pt. 2, but to be fair I actually really love Style, and I don't mind seeing 1D do it their way. If I were to choose between these two, it'd be difficult though, because they are both so great. I love how all the members get their chance to shine in this song, and it also gave me chance to distinguish their voices to know what they sound like when they went solo. The production is amazing, their voices are great, and the lyrics, even if they are about Taylor Swift, are fine. And like I said about the Style v. Perfect rumor being true, they are still great songs, and I love them. Also, we need a Style v. Perfect face-off in the Face Off Polling Booth now.

Yeah, the only One Direction song I like. I was this close to a perfect track record, then they had to drag me down.

Night Changes is amazing. I thought you would have hated that song because "it's boring and depressing"?

This is basically Uptown Funk 2.0, except without all the 80s funk or the any of the swagger that made Bruno Mars amazing.
22. Cake By The Ocean by DNCE
YE position: #18
I think the only real reason I love this is because of that bassline. That, and probably the fact that this song sounds like a better version of that 80s guilty pleasure song, Sex On The Beach. The chorus is incredibly catchy, the beat great, the bassline as I said is just amazing, and I actually don't mind Joe's falsetto, like at all. People like to say this was just Uptown Funk 2.0 and that's why it's bad, no that's not it. It tries to be an Uptown Funk type song and it fucking works, that's why! Oh, just wait until I get to 2015, I have a lot to say there. But, this is still a great song, but just not as good as Uptown Funk though.

This is probably the most controversial pick so far, especially since so many people would have this in their bottom 20, Hell maybe as the worst song of 2016. But, I don't hate it, like at all.
21. 7 Years by Lukas Graham
YE position: #12
I really don't know where to begin with this one. For one, I love the music box and the quite yet emotional tone of the song. I know the main problem everyone has with this song is that it's boring and the lyrics paint Lukas as... well.
"By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor" "Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me" "I got my boys with me, at least those in favor"
Yeah, some of these lyrics are contradictory. But for me, it's near the end of the song that pulls me in.
"Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month"
For me, I feel like the song is about how he doesn't want to grow old, sad, cold, depressed and pessimistic, and I can relate to that. Especially since my uncle, who was a sad, old, depressed, pessimist recently died, and the last thing I want it to end up like him; sad, lonely, no one visits, wants to die and hates the world. And that's what I mostly get out of this song, Lukas doesn't want to be like that, he doesn't want to be like his father, and that is why it made it as far as it did. BUT, some of the lyrics do weigh it down, just enough to the point that it failed to make my top 20. I am gonna die because of this won't I?173/500

Here's some proof that Major Lazer got better after Lean On.
20. Cold Water by Major Lazer ft. Justin Bieber & MO
YE position: #25
I'll be honest and say, this isn't even my favorite Major Lazer song, not by a long shot actually. But, that doesn't mean this song isn't bad at all, it's still a great song, that was wrongfully kept from the #1 spot. The production is amazing, it's a seemingly great blend of EDM and tropical house influences, Justin and MO are amazing in this and the lyrics are again, not bad at all.
"And if you feel you're sinking I will jump right over into cold, cold water for you"
It's a damn great song, and I'm glad it got as far as it did.

Abel.
19. The Hills by The Weeknd
YE position: #32
Yeah, this wasn't gonna make the top 15 because it's from 2015, but this is still a damn great song. It starts off dark and slow, and then just immediately builds to an amazing chorus. This song was great back in 2015, and it's still great today. It's the best type of dark R&B song that I like, and I'm glad it was a success.

Yeah, I disagree with you on 7 Years, especially with that last part, which IMO, is just him throwing sentimental crap at you, ESPECIALLY that letter part. But your opinion, man.

Remember that song that I talked about with DJ Snake and Major Lazer? Well, here ya go!
18. Lean On by Major Lazer X DJ Snake ft. MO
YE position: #85
This is by far one of the best EDM/trap songs I've ever heard. It's a very catchy and danceable song like what EDM should be, and it's much different from most trap music. This one sounds like it was meant to be danceable and to relax to as well, which may sound weird, but look who your listening to. All in all, it's a definite standout song, especially in terms of the genres they're in, and I love it!

This feels like a country/folk/blues song, and it's probably the best one I've ever heard.
17. Ex's & Oh's by Elle King
YE position: #63
I am so glad that the general public gave Elle King a hit in 2015/2016, because this is probably the song with the most life infused into it. After the whole down-tempo tropical house vibe that was dominant, it's refreshing to have something different be a hit like this. Elle King is just amazing, and this actually flips the gender balance than what most songs tend to do. If this was sung by a guy, it would have been much worse, but thankfully we've got Elle King. Too bad her other single, America's Sweetheart flopped, seriously, that song had potential, what the Hell America?
