Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #11 - OneRepublic - NativeResiding right outside the Top 10 is last year's runner-up, OneRepublic's Native. I included this as a nominee this year considering how close the #1 spot was last year, and I felt this deserved another try. Well it does beat last year's #1, so it did its job. Native is easily OneRepublic's best album to date, and will be a very hard one to top. Ryan Tedder's lyrical and productional genius is something that OneRepublic has that no other artist has for a full album. Ryan Tedder is easily one of the best writers/producers in the whole world, having written/produced major hits for many artists. His own band, however, has never really translated to the huge success he has had until this album. "Counting Stars" became their best selling song of their career and was one of the top songs of 2014 in general. Re-release track "Love Runs Out" did very well in its own light, and "I Lived" is looking to be a huge single as well. The album doesn't get enough credit as it should though. This album is what I thought could be a potential Album of the Year nominee for the Grammys, as everything about the album is great. OneRepublic went pretty pop on this one, but it works out so wonderfully that it doesn't even matter. The album is full of radio-ready singles, that it is sad that not all of them will see a release. "Counting Stars" is easily their best song to date. Other tracks like "If I Lose Myself", "I Lived", "Burning Bridges", "Preacher", and "Life In Color" are superb in their own light. The only real dud is the track "Au Revoir", which isn't even bad, it's good, but just more of an album track and nothing outside of it. The most underrated track on the album is "Light It Up", which starts off as a pure alternative rock track, then turns into a euphoric instrumental to end it. It's a song that is overlooked by everyone, and what I think is one of the best ones musically speaking. The album is great, and if you haven't listened to it yet, you need to.
Top 3: "Counting Stars", "If I Lose Myself", "Life In Color"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #10 - Andy Grammer - Magazines or Novels At the #10 spot is Andy Grammer's Magazines or Novels. This album is very different compared to Andy's self-titled debut album. A lot of songs seem more like fun songs and just Andy having a lot of fun with them, as his debut seemed destined for radio play throughout. Despite a lot not being totally tailored for radio, it works out very well. The lyrical honesty that Andy uses is one of the loving things about the album. "Honey, I'm Good." is about being tempted to cheat on his girl, but knowing in the end he should not and just go home. "Forever" is pretty much every guy's inner thoughts in a song. The song talks about how his wife takes forever to get ready and Andy is waiting impatiently, but knowing in the end, she's "always worth waiting for". "You already said you had the perfect dress, so why you got to try them all?" is pretty much every guy's thoughts put into a lyric. Andy goes even further personally with the song "Holding Out", a song that is about losing his virginity at a late age, a song that many guys are probably afraid to admit that it is their life in a song. The album is very musically creative, having great productions on songs like "Honey, I'm Good.", "Back Home", "Pushing", and "Blame It On The Stars". Andy Grammer is seriously one of the most underrated artists of our time, having so many radio-ready songs, but not gaining as much success as he should. Sure this album isn't as radio friendly as his debut, but radio stations could go out of the box a bit to play the pure bops that are on this album.
Top 3: “Back Home”, “Honey, I’m Good.”, “Pushing”

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #9 - Switchfoot - Fading WestSwitchfoot doubled up in 2014, releasing an album and a movie, both using the title Fading West. Fading West is one of Switchfoot's most cohesive albums to date, as through each track is great, and interesting every time. Their past few albums suffered from a lack of variety and/or interesting material. Despite going a little more pop on Fading West, it works out to Switchfoot's advantage. The album has a few genres mixed in together, looking for pop radio airplay on songs "Let It Out" and "Love Alone is Worth the Fight", alternative airplay on "Who We Are" and "Back to the Beginning Again", they even have a grungier sound on the highlight track "Say It Like You Mean It". The album only has one bad track ("The World You Want"), with most tracks being good, and some great. "When We Come Alive" is a perfect example of a great song, and one of Switchfoot's strongest in their discography. It has an anthemic chorus to go along with perfect verses. The song has pop appeal to it, but still keeping a rock sound. "Let It Out" is one of the few pure pop songs on the album, but it works very well in their favor. Similar to "When We Come Alive", it has an earworm chorus, and the whole track is catchy and will stay in your head. Fading West is, in my opinion, Switchfoot's best effort since The Beautiful Letdown.
Top 3: "When We Come Alive", "Let It Out", "Say It Like You Mean It"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #8 - Jason Derulo - Talk DirtyJason Derulo's first real successful era started with Talk Dirty. With past albums, Jason Derulo and Future History, Jason was only able to see a few singles have success with hardly any album sales. This album has seen success in both fields. The one thing that Jason has been able to do through each album is create fun, catchy pop songs that are destined for radio success. He does it in this album also, but is able to do it through almost each track. The production is a pleasant surprise on the album, as before, Jason was a fairly predictable artist. With help from Ricky Reed on two of the best productions of Jason's career, "Talk Dirty" and "Wiggle", Ricky was able to help Jason reach a new fanbase and be a forced to be reckoned with Rhythmic/Urban audiences, where before he was mainly a pop artist. He also gets help from mega producers DJ Mustard, Timbaland, and Cirkut. The album is a re-release of his international album, Tattoos, bring the best tracks (sadly leaving "Tattoo" and "Side FX" behind) with him, and bring 4 great new tracks. "Bubblegum", "Kama Sutra", and "With the Lights On" are tracks that could suit Urban very well, while tracks like "Zipper", "Stupid Love" and the singles "Trumpets" and "The Other Side" going for Pop play. The only real duds that were on the album were with "Marry Me" and "Vertigo". "Marry Me" had no progression and was fairly boring, but really only saw success as it seemed like a proposal song to then-girlfriend Jordin Sparks. "Vertigo" also features Jordin Sparks, on a ballad that also does not progress, and is fairly a big snoozer. The rest of the tracks, however, are what carry the LP, and really make the album what it is: a fun, catchy pop record.
Top 3: "Talk Dirty", "Zipper", "The Other Side"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #7 - Cold War Kids - Hold My HomeHold My Home is Cold War Kids' fifth studio album to date, but they are really still an unknown band. This was the first album I had heard from them, and it made a big impression on me. Since then, I have checked out their past singles, and their last few albums, and I have became a genuine fan now. The album boasts great indie rock music, mixing in elements of blues and R&B in it, giving it a style that is not really found in today's Alternative music. Lead single and highlight track, "All This Could Be Yours", has a pounding production to go along with a catchy chorus, and supplies a great listen each and every time. "Go Quietly" is a slower rocker, then goes into a falsetto-laced chorus that shows off the great vocals that lead singer Nathan Willett possesses. "First" is another slower rocker that showcases the good songwriting that most of the songs have: "How am I the lucky one?, I do not deserve to wait around forever when you were there first." The song has many quotable lyrics. Other songs like "Hot Coals", "Drive Desperate", "Hold My Home", "Flower Drum Song", and "Hear My Baby Call" are also major highlights, containing great songwriting and production. Despite the very strong songs that the album contains, it also has some filler. "Harold Bloom" is a pretty soft ballad, but decent through album listenings. "Hotel Anywhere" and "Nights & Weekends" are tracks that are passable even when you're listening to the album, as they don't supply much to the album. Despite the two duds, the rest of the album is great, and makes this album a great listen, and a definite checkout for anyone looking for a new band to get into.
Top 3: "All This Could Be Yours", "Go Quietly", "First"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #6 - Luke James - Luke JamesLuke James went through a lot to get to his debut album. After two pre-albums, many buzz singles, a spot on a Beyoncé tour, and numerous delays in a three year span, Luke James finally saw his debut album in stores in September 2014. Luke possesses easily one of the best vocals of any male artist in any genre in the game right now. His falsetto is outstanding, and no other artist could reach the pitch that he can and still sound great. With great vocals, has to come great tracks, and Luke is able to deliver on a lot of them. His falsetto is present through almost each track, shining on songs like the Grammy-nominated track "I Want You", also on "Glass House" and "Dancing In the Dark". The album is sonically great, keeping a fresh R&B sound throughout. "Love XYZ" is a super unique track, unlike anything I have heard. "Exit Wounds" is easily one of the best break-up tracks of the year. On the track, Luke is heartbroken through the first verse, and you think this would be a sappy break-up song about wanting the girl back, but then it takes a sudden turn. After another falsetto-laced chorus, the last part of it starts with a sudden "f*ck you" and then turns into a hip-hop beat and it transforms the whole entire song into a whole different dimension. Now he is starting to realize how much better off he is and that his new girl blows his previous out of the water. It is definitely an anthem for the heartbroken guys out there. Grammy-nominated "Options" has the lone feature on it, coming from the super pointless Rick Ross, but the rest is great. The only song on the album without falsetto, but Luke is able to make up for it with great writing. There's also a superb cover of Sam Smith's major hit, "Stay With Me", found on the deluxe edition. Luke gives the song his own twist, going with an acapella on it, and showing the true beauty of his vocals. The only problem with the album is that some of the songwriting isn't all that great, and the productions seem sometimes lazy. Overall, this is a great R&B album and a great debut album from an artist that has the potential to breakout in a big way.Top 4: "I Want You", "Dancing In the Dark", "Exit Wounds", "Options"(picked Top 4 for this one since there is no way to pick a Top 3 considering all four of these tracks are the best ones)View my full review on the album here.

Due to work, I'm probably going to hold off on the #4 and #5 spots till tomorrow. The plan was to do #4 and #5 today, and the rest tomorrow, but it looks like I'll wrap things up on Friday. Thursday is another no day for me either with work and my chart.
Here's how the rest will wrap up: Wednesday: #3, #4, #5 Thursday: Chart, no AOTY Friday: #2 and #1

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper.
#5 - Ryan Star - A N G E L S + A N I M A L SRyan Star's A N G E L S + A N I M A L S takes the first spot in the Top 5 in this year's Album of the Year award. A+A was the first album that I was able to get into fully (Fading West and Mind Over Matter simmered down after their release week) in 2014, being my go-to album until the #3 album came out. Ryan Star really came into his own in this album. Without any label pressure, Ryan was able to create an album that was 100% him. The album is very musically dynamic, with productions being the major highlight of the album, and really showcasing Ryan's musical abilities. The albums flares with many tempo changes, odd production choices, and different songwriting, but everything works wonderfully in Ryan's favor. The production is at an all-time high on tracks "Spaceman Fugitive", "We Were Kings", and "I Will Survive", all having bombastic productions and Ryan's unique vocals powering right through each song. "Spaceman Fugitive" starts off as a piano ballad, with a soft falsetto-laced chorus, before drums and guitars kick in and the heavy screaming of Star shouting, "I'm not coming down!" moving in and turning the song into a different dynamic for a few seconds, before simmering down again and moving a little upbeat through the rest of the song until the next chorus, where havoc breaks again. "I Will Survive" showcases Ryan's vocals and songwriting. The explosive drumming sample that is used after the second chorus is one of the best moments on the album, and really putting the production into its own. Ryan even attempts some electric elements on another highlight track, "Sailing On", again highlighting Ryan's production and great vocals. He even slows down on some very heartfelt ballads like "F*k'n Up", "My Life With You", "Bullet", and "Where the Island Ends", each speaking on a very personal level from Star. The album has many dynamics throughout and is easily one of the best albums in terms of production in recent memory. I think Ryan really came into his own on this album, and separated himself from the rest of the crowd.
Top 3: "I Will Survive", "Impossible (Animals Redux)", "Spaceman Fugitive"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #4 - Bad Suns - Language & PerspectiveBad Suns produced a stellar debut album in Language & Perspective, kickstarting, what should be, a great career for them. The album has a retro feel, but still feels very current. Songwriting, productions, and the overall instrumentation featured on the album are at major highs. There are some unique productions in songs like "Salt" and "Dancing On Quicksand". "Salt" has a sort-of reggae feel to it. The beat is based around a drum beat and really creates a different dynamic. The lyrics on the song are also one of the best on the whole album, speaking of struggling to find your inner-self and having an identity crisis. "Dancing On Quicksand" falls under the same boat with great production and songwriting. The song speaks of wanting your significant other back when you "f*cked up". It uses the clever analogy of "dancing on quicksand", where he knows he's not going anywhere and won't get her back, so trying is like "dancing on quicksand". "Cardiac Arrest" and "Rearview" showcase the catchiness that the band possesses, while "We Move Like the Ocean" and "Pretend" show the pop side of them. Lead singer Christo Bowman has a different set of pipes on him compared to other indie acts. He's got a graceful, yet deep, voice that carries through each track and accompany the beats very well. The album is very instant, and easily the best indie release of the year. There's something in it for everyone, which makes this a great album.
Top 3: "Salt", "Dancing On Quicksand", "Cardiac Arrest"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #3 - The Used - Imaginary EnemyThe Used redeemed themselves with Imaginary Enemy. Following two fairly average albums, they were able to progress their sound, but still keep true to themselves. Overall being a political album, Bert McCracken was able to write great politically-infused songs with all of them being very accurate. In the song "Revolution", it says basically what US citizens that want a revolution think: "I'll never turn my back on where I'm from. I'll never stop believing. I'll always love my home. But from that love I've noticed who's been burned, I've noticed who's still bleeding, it seems the fire has grown. So from now on I pledge allegiance to a world that's so much different. No one suffers, everyone is free. Revolution starts with me." Every song is wonderfully crafted, with production and songwriting being at an all-time high for The Used. The rocker "Revolution" starts off the album perfectly, screaming of political protest with lyrics that are honest, yet very true, to go along with a hard rock melody that accompanies Bert's vocals and lyrics very well. The genre-bending "A Song to Stifle Imperial Progression (A Work In Progress)" shows off The Used's musical creativity at its finest. It combines heavy metal and funk in an odd combination that works perfectly. The song keeps the political things rolling, yet another song that speaks a lot of truthfulness. They go a little pop on songs like "Generation Throwaway", "Evolution", "Make Believe", and "Overdose", but do a fine of job at it. There are only a few songs that could be considered duds, which would be "El-Oh-Vee-Ee" and "Kenna Song". The former is a pop offering with a cheesy chorus and relatively boring melody, while the latter is just a snoozer ballad that supplies nothing to the album. The only two songs that don't follow the political theme, are tracks "Cry" and "Overdose", both being love songs, but among The Used's best in that department. There are a lot of hidden gems on Imaginary Enemy, easily being one of The Used's best records in their discography, and easily their best offer since 2007's Lies for the Liars.
Top 3: "A Song to Stifle Imperial Progression (A Work In Progress)", "Revolution", "Cry"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #2 - Tove Lo - Queen of the CloudsTove Lo was able to score the highest nominations in this year's awards, including a win in both Best New Artist and Song of the Year ("Habits"), but she takes the runner-up spot in this year's Album of the Year race. Queen of the Clouds is her soaring debut LP that is a major highlight on a fairly low-key year in pop music. With so many new artists gaining hits over the year, Tove Lo was one of the few that were able to create a wonderful album that will get her past the one-hit wonder status. Queen of the Clouds contains massive choruses, booming productions, and slick songwriting in a wonderfully crafted debut album. Her songwriting is top-notch and among the best in the game already. She keeps it personal in songs like "Moments", "The Way That I Am", and "Habits", showcasing her flaws in a way that most pop artists don't seem to touch artistically. She gets raunchy in songs "Like 'Em Young", "My Gun", and "Talking Body", yet she still stays classy. Her songwriting brings out the most in each song, where there is not one slight error in her writing throughout the whole album, which is rare for a pop artist these days. Every lyric makes total sense and relates to its respective song, where some artists might throw in the filler lyric that makes no sense. Production is another high quality in the album. On some songs it can be great, but in some songs it can unintentionally take it down. A prime example of a production gone wrong is on "The Way That I Am", a song that showcases her flaws as previously stated, but is backed by a dubstep-influenced beat that takes out the beauty of the lyrics. Though it makes some songs like in "Not On Drugs", bringing out her vocals and are a perfect supplement to her stellar vocals. There are some dimes on the album: "Talking Body", "Timebomb", "Not On Drugs", "Thousand Miles", "Habits", and a few pennies thrown in: "Like 'Em Young", "This Time Around", "Run On Love (QOTC Edit)". In a 15 track album, it's hard to hit a home run every time, but Tove Lo is able to get on base every time nonetheless. This is a sonically cohesive album, with soaring productions, emotional songwriting, and Tove's beautiful vocals, and a very strong debut album. There's a great amount of potential in her to become a pop superstar, and I am positive this is the start to a wonderful career for her.
Top 3: "Habits", "Thousand Miles", "Talking Body"

Album of the Year:{Last Year's Winner}Ricky Reed is Real by: Wallpaper. #1 - Nickelback - No Fixed Address
Nickelback takes home the trophy for Album of the Year this year for their second overall win in the category (Here and Now won in 2011). I already know this will be an unpopular decision here (and probably everywhere else), but for whatever reason, Nickelback has always been able to strike a chord with me. No Fixed Address is their poppiest album to date, but they make it work almost every time. It starts off like most normal Nickelback records, with a heavy rocker in the lead track, a rock song for the second, and a pop single for the next, but after that is where it gets very different for Nickelback. With the first three tracks, "Million Miles an Hour" talks a major LSD trip. It has a psychedelic feel to it and has a different sound than most Nickelback rockers, though it stays true to the band. "Edge of a Revolution" is about politics, a new topic for Nickelback. It's got the run of the mill Nickelback sound, but with different lyrics that come across as cheesy at times, but overall it's still a good track. "What Are You Waiting For?" is a tiny bit of a departure for Nickelback, taking on a electro-pop tinged beat with the classic Nickelback sound, but it could come off as a little generic. After this is where it gets different, which is not common in a Nickelback album. "She Keeps Me Up" is a funk rock track, reminiscent of Sly and the Family Stone, and what seems to be about a girl, but on further analysis, is actually about cocaine. The track works very well and is a step in the right direction in keeping things interesting. "Make Me Believe Again" and "Satellite" are pretty run of the mill, the former being a harder pop song (electric guitars), and the latter being a poppier ballad. "Satellite" has some of the best lyrics on the whole album, reminiscent of "Lullaby" from their last album. "Get 'Em Up" has a bluesier sound to it, and the lyrics are about a bank robbery gone wrong. This one, like "Million Miles an Hour", is a different rocker, but still holds true to the band. "The Hammer's Coming Down" is probably the top track on the album musically, having a climatic instrumentation to go along with the post-apocalyptic lyrics. After this it comes to a screeching halt though. On tracks "Miss You" and "Got Me Runnin' Round", they swing and strike out and fly out respectively. "Miss You" is one of the worst songs in Nickelback's whole discography in my opinion. It's pure pop, even getting pretty close to being One Direction worthy, and is all around cheesy. "Got Me Runnin' Round" is a fly out though, as Nickelback is able to get a little funky again, but not to the same degree as they were able to do successfully on "She Keeps Me Up". Then a random ass throw-in of Flo Rida comes in and completely every feeling that the song gave and shot itself in the foot. "Sister Sin" closes the album nicely, throwing in a folk vibe, and making you somewhat forget about the disasters in the last two. So I basically wrote a track by track for this lol. The album is a musically creative album from Nickelback, something that has been very rare in their career, as they seem to go by the model of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Nothing was broken, but with radio changing drastically in recent years, they're looking to fit in. They might not and be left behind in the 2000s, but it's a worthy try for the band.
Top 3: "She Keeps Me Up", "Million Miles an Hour", "Satellite"
(I just failed miserably with these tags lmao) Now stay tuned for a big announcement (or two)!!

Now that the awards have concluded, I have some big news to share! I'm pregnant! First off, with Nickelback winning the Artist of the Year and Album of the Year, I am happy to announce that I will finally start working on my Ranking Every Nickelback Song Ever! I am currently in the midst of ranking them, as I have the lower half of the rankings done, and some of the top, so it will be soon before long before the whole thing is finished. I won't post until it is all finished, so expect to see it get started at the end of the month (or beginning of February knowing my major procrastination problems lol). Click here to get to the page!Also in other news, I am thinking of expanding my chart from a Top 20 to a Top 40! Since 20 seems like a pretty low mark on here (how do some of you get 100!?), I've been thinking of upping it. Now, I don't plan on starting this just yet. I'm probably going to start a Top 40 on my iTunes this week, and update it regularly to see how things go. If things seem to be good, I will start doing that for Pulse. Now if I do the Top 40, the posting day might have to change since I usually work on Thursdays, and it would be very hard for me to get it posted since I have some trouble doing 20. If I do need to change the day, it might change to Fridays. We'll see if my schedule starts to change, as I have had the same days and times for work every week for like the past two months. View this week's chart here!Also, if you missed any of the awards, they are all posted on the front page, second post. Get there by clicking here!

YAY TOVE LO!!! <3 This was a great show! Great job! And some nice choices! :) Also, about your chart, glad to hear you're thinking of expanding, just do what you're comfortable with! I expanded to 100, and it takes a lot longer, but it's worth it because all of my favorite songs can chart (I LOVE A LOT OF SONGS )

Just want to give a big thank you to everyone that followed the awards! This was fun, and I plan on doing this again next year. Hopefully next year I don't stretch it into two weeks like I did with this lol. surfy, Albie, Flip, Green Baron, Cody, Kurt, Fancy, lyhom, @jakelmmrs44, H., Web, nick64 (never added you to the tags lol), and anyone I missed: Thank you for your likes and comments!! As for the Top 40, it looks like it will happen. I was adding songs to the playlist, and I was able to score 37 in total right away lol. Gotta find my last 3 songs, and it looks like it may happen soon!
