 welcome to the rankdown for grand theft auto 5's non-stop-pop fm radio station, hosted by me, lyhom! my first rankdown (the lyhom shuffle rankdown 1.0) was actually more successful than I thought considering that it was 40 songs with a good chunk of them being quite obscure, so I think it's time to host a slightly bigger rankdown!
here's the song list (songs in red are available on the original ps3/xbox 360 versions of the game, songs in blue are exclusive to the newer ps4/xbox one/pc ports):
All Saints - “Pure Shores”
Amerie - “1 Thing”
Britney Spears - “Gimme More”
Corona - “The Rhythm of the Night”
Fergie f/ Ludacris - “Glamorous”
Hall & Oates - “Adult Education”
Jane Child - “Don’t Wanna Fall In Love”
Kelly Rowland - “Work (Freemasons remix)”
Mis-Teeq - “Scandalous”
Modjo - “Lady (Hear Me Tonight)”
N-Joi - “Anthem”
Pet Shop Boys - “West End Girls”
Rihanna - “Only Girl (In The World)”
Robyn & Kleerup - “With Every Heartbeat”
Stardust - “Music Sounds Better With You”
Wham! - “Everything She Wants”
Backstreet Boys - “I Want It That Way”
Black Eyed Peas - “Meet Me Halfway”
Bobby Brown - “On Our Own”
Bronski Beat - “Smalltown Boy”
Cassie - “Me & U”
Dirty Vegas - “Days Go By”
Robert Howard & Kym Mazelle - “Wait”
Gorillaz f/ De La Soul - “Feel Good Inc.”
INXS - “New Sensation”
Jamiroquai - “Alright”
Lady Gaga - “Applause”
Living In A Box - “Living In A Box”
Lorde - “Tennis Court”
M.I.A. -”Bad Girls”
M83 - “Midnight City”
Mike Posner - “Cooler Than Me”
Moloko - “The Time Is Now”
Morcheeba - “Tape Loop”
Maroon 5 f/ Christina Aguilera - “Moves Like Jagger”
Naked Eyes - “Promises, Promises”
Real Life - “Send Me An Angel ‘89”
Robbie Williams & Kylie Minogue - “Kids”
Simply Red - “Something Got Me Started (Hurley’s House Mix)”
Sly Fox - “Let’s Go All The Way”
Sneaker Pimps - “6 Underground”
Taylor Dayne - “Tell It To My Heart”
here's a spotify playlist:
and here are youtube links to the songs in that playlist that are unavailable at least for me:
Stardust - "Music Sounds Better With You"
N-Joi - "Anthem"
Sly Fox - "Let's Go All The Way"
here's a link to the preference revealer!

for now I'm going to set the due date to be december 18th, however if I have to extend the date at all I'll change it to january 1st or even the 8th, as I understand that many people will be busy for the holidays and might not have time for this
(I'd also prefer if you number your lists when you submit them to me, here's a good way to do it)
tags will be in the next post

"Scandalous"!
"Music Sounds Better With You"!
"Lady (Hear Me Tonight)"!
"Don't Wanna Fall In Love"!
"With Every Heartbeat"!
"1 Thing"!
Most of these I just never thought I'd see in a rankdown. I think I'll try to do this one since I know like 90% of this list.

WEEEEE!
I'm so glad that you went with this rankdown idea. I'm actually not familiar with every song, but I'll make myself familiar soon.

A lot of great songs here.
I'm surprised by how much I don't know from this though actually (I didn't play GTA V all that much, so I shouldn't be that surprised lol). I'll give it a try likely.

I take back what I said in the 2012(?)YE rankdown. This is a very solid list. I've played about 500+ hours of GTA Online (im not exaggerating one bit here) so I will do this.

I was just about to reply "no thanks, I don't like &/or don't know these songs"
...but then I looked at the list...& to my surprise there are a bunch of great pop songs here!
please forgive me for prejudging & having a bad attitude (sometimes us rock posters can be a bit snobbish)
I'll try to submit a list, but if I can't get it done in time, I'd love to be tagged so that I can follow along with the results

I only know like 5 songs from this list so I'd rather work on another rankdown and pass on this.

I'll probably be passing on this, but on a side note, I just purchased GTA V because it was only $30 at GameStop, lol.
Tag me in results!

Well, I don't know what GTA or Non-Stop-Pop is, so I didn't gravitate to open this thread until today. There are quite good 1980s classics here, though! Like, what?!!! I was working on Natasha's RD, but I guess I can allocate time to do this tonight  |

Since we're on the topic of GTA5, it's fun to crash, kill others, and escape the cops while listening to I Want It That Way.

I'm old enough to remember hearing one-hit wonders like Living In A Box & Sly Fox on the radio in the 80s ... that was the era when the 1-hit wonders dominated & were really good

I will likely pass on this. Hoping for Midnight City to win! So I eventually submitted for this just to boost Midnight City. (and Feel Good Inc.) That said, I liked most of the songs on this list and even my #42 is okay. |
