Once again, I like every song

[Deleted]

Excellent song list so far!

[Lozzy]

Great lists, and I really like your compact formatting :)

[josh]

Thanks guys!

Yeah, Slizzard since it's mostly latter-half 2012 songs no reason to make crazy commentary. That's going towards the albums.

By the way, I have 26 of the 35 albums done. Getting close. :)

[Deleted]

very good stuff so far, glad PSY made your top 40~

Random fun facts. I have two of them woohoo.

1. The lowest-ranking #1 for the year was "In My Head," ranking at #66 with 116 points. However, this was after only 3 weeks of charting, so not too shabby at all. (#1 gets 40 points so it only could have gotten 120 points in those 3 weeks.)
2. The highest-ranking non-#1 song is yet to chart. It is #4. :)

[hitseeker.]

Excellent sets of songs as was to be expected. Rihanna, Loreen, Carly, Zedd...I have to follow this more closely!

Titanium was my longest #1 for the year at 3 weeks. With album tracks no longer being allowed to chart starting this year, my #1s should be at the top longer. I had 20 #1s in 26 weeks last year. Titanium was 3 weeks, with "Cantaloupe," "Push and Shove," "Good Time," and "Call Me Maybe" being 2 weeks each.

Well, I just named some of the top 5 songs there. Any guesses to the order of the top 5?

[Juan Carlos]

I really like so far, Josh: "Skyfall", "Windows Down" (I didn't know it was from Big Time Rush when I heard that song on a local station until I saw a clip on Nick), "Beauty and a Beat", "Home", "Looking Hot", "Paradise", "Clarity" (OFF?!?!?), "We Run the Night", "Lost at Sea", "Princess of China", "Birthday Cake" (Remix), "Jump", "Where Have You Been", "C'mon", "Brokenhearted", "Let's Go", "Spectrum", "Push and Shove", "Settle Down", "Cockiness (Love It)", "Little Talks", "Too Close", "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)", "Spectrum (Say My Name)", "Lights", "Die Young", "Titanium", "Hello" and "Some Nights".

Sad that: "We Are Young", "Love You Like a Love Song", "Hurts Like Heaven", "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together", "Heart Skips a Beat", "Supernatural", "I Knew You Were Trouble.", "Give Your Heart a Break", "Scream", "As Long As You Love Me" and "Begin Again" couldn't make it.

"Call Me Maybe" :) I hope it's not "Good Feeling"

EDIT: Nevermind! It's explained below

[josh]

Good Feeling pre-dated my chart. I don't think I charted Wild Ones, either. Just Whistle and after.

LOL! I misread "Good Time" with "Good Feeling". My bad!
(The question is: Why I was thinking on that song?)
So, I think "Call Me Maybe" will beat "Good Time".

[josh]

Jan 3, 2013 13:08:18 GMT -5 josh said:

"Good Time," and "Call Me Maybe"

These are two of the top 5. The other 3 are: a song that will make Xiivi very happy, a song that has to do with Chris Brown (in a sense), and a song that ripped off of Britney Spears (in a sense) [2].

Guesses for the other 3 and the top 5 order?

So besides "Good Time" and "Call Me Maybe", it will be "Run", "I Told You So", and "Pound the Alarm"

1. Good Time
2. Pound the Alarm
3. Call Me Maybe
4. I Told You So
5. Run

?

[josh]

Idk I'm still being slow with the albums so final 5 one at a time. And small write-ups too.

*Friendly reminder this is basically just the latter half of the year, so songs from late 2011/early 2012 are basically screwed*

5. 528 020 "Run" Flo Rida feat. RedFoo 32-33-28-26-20-13-10-8-8-7-5-3-2-1-2-12-18-17-19-28-off

I love this song so much. Definitely the best from this album. The production on this song absolutely kills. Produced by GoonRock, responsible for a lot of LMFAO's work (makes sense since one half of the duo features on here. Fun fact: Party Rock Anthem was written for Flo, but he turned it down. Dummy.) ... RedFoo's feature isn't too bad, either. Lol at this video, though. Nice rack, terrible everything else though lmao. That butt, falling in on itself.

OH and this is dedicated to Xiivi.

[Deleted]

some night and run!

[josh]

I added something for you Xiivi

And Nick has 1 of 5 right so far.

[Sean]

Oh god I hate that video!!! lmao!

Oh and "Call Me Maybe" better be #1!

[Juan Carlos]

I don't listen too many songs from Flo Rida, so I didn't know about it

4. 536 019 "I Told You So" Karmin 10-8-6-5-4-5-4-3-3-5-7-12-14-17-17-25-27-31-40-off

This song is dedicated to Chris Brown, imo. Or maybe Kurt, with the trombone. They actually show it in the video.

This song definitely had some of the beginning of its chart run cut off, but it didn't affect it too much. Probably wouldn't have made #3 regardless.

The song starts out with an amazing production. The high-ish pitched noise, the bass, then Amy comes in rapping. She definitely shows off her rapping chops in this song, rapping really quickly. This song is obviously influenced by "Look at Me Now," the song that made Karmin go viral. It even uses that title as a lyric in the song. Not sure which of the two I like better, though. Both are flawless. :'(



Anyways, album update! Only 5 left! One of which is Trilogy though, which is 30 songs. 2.6 hours. Definitely gonna slow me down if I decide to listen to the whole thing to write the review for that album lmao.

[nick64]

Yup 2/5 Great song!! And I prefer it to their "Look At Me Now" cover.
