I just like the vibe of Medicine! It’s pretty cool Otherwise this set wasn’t terrible! Taylor Swift definitely got some inspiration for mirrorball from Medicine. They sound very similar. They’re both amazing songs! She’s a big fan of the band so it makes sense

The 1975 either have these great uptempo songs that have a similar melody or these album filler that have a similar melody. I have no problem with bands producing songs part 1 part, part 2part, 3 and so on, but the 1975 have a lot of similar album fillers. Most of my below 30s are showing up sooner than I expected. which is good. I felt the songs I ranked 30 and up are the ones I enjoyed the most and came back to several times. These three could have waited one more night to appear.
35. Tonight (I Wish I Was Your Boy) This was one of the ones that stood out. The intro is weird I get it, and those little squeakys vocals follow you all through out the song, but man this melody really hit the spot. Finger snaps and horns sound right at home on this one.
34. I Couldn't Be More In Love This one is really pretty. What I like is that it stays away from modern percussion. Again this one had that sorta 80's R&B smooth pop ballad groove. maybe some thing along the lines of a DeBarge or Jets ballad. You can hear it in the guitar solo.
32. The Ballad of Me and My Brain This one anchors my top 30. I dug the Phil Collins like percussion in this one. Reminds me of songs like "I Don't care Anymore" or In The Air Tonight". The chorus singers actually supply the melody. Interesting and very melodic at the same time.

Doc Indie Party Rock glad you enjoyed Ballad of Me and My Brain. There were others that could’ve been included from ILIWYS (like This Must Be My Dream) but Ballad is one of my all time favourites and it stands out from the rest quite a bit with its sound and structure, so I wanted to include it.

I hate to put a song with Phoebe Bridgers bottom 10... but here we are. (For JCGBA)
Glad that we finally got rid of the autotune tracks.

I can't see how you can listen to 'You' and give it a bottom 10 rank, let alone 50...
Also, the first number 1 will be lost next

These four are my standouts of the bunch.
29. TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME Oh no! One of my favorites from the band. This song is just tootootootootootfun. Was I the only one who loved the wordplay with the lyrics. Not to mention the cool simple but delicious catchy melody. I won't even go into the video, but Matty with all them crazy looks ,and the people were all having a ball. To put a ribbon on it every chick in the video was super gorgeous.
26. She Way Out Getting into the melodic guitar wonder jams from the first album a bit early. Easily my preferred sound for the band. This is the guitar style that got me into Indiepop to begin with.
25. People This one was always gonna make my top 20. Very different for the band, extremely heavy, but i loved the post punk vibe of the song. I could have done without some of the cussing, but other than that it rocked.
22. Guys This is one of the new songs that pleasantly surprised me the first time I heard it. It is in all its glory the exact opposite of a song like "Love Me" is. Made mt top 20 and that is a feet all on its own considering I haven't even let it settle into my favorites yet. It has a beautiful guitar melody and Matty sings it in the most heartfelt way. He is singing it to the guys in the band,and you get the feel he really loves his band members.

My #1 song has such a huge ego that it deserves a post all its own
23. Love Me I knew I would loose my #1 ultimate favorite song from the band ever early, but I was hoping for top 15. The music video looks the most 80's too. but it's the song that blew me away and here is why. Love the lyrics ,and Matty's attitude through out the song goes hand in hand with the theme of the song. He just wants to be adored ,and he He sings it so obnoxiously. Like he doesn't give a F U C K. Almost like Val Kilmer's version of Jim Morrison would. The sex appeal oozes all over the song and screen, and all the yeah's and oh's throughout the song add even more attitude. I just love it. The song is just so over the top. its like a throwback to 70's Glam Rock too. Not many vocalists from this era could pull off a song like this. 80's frontmen had attitude. There is Robert Plant, Rod Stewart, Mick Jagger, Paul Stanley. Freddy Mercury, Vince Neil, Jim Morrison, David Coverdale, and Steven Tyler of course. Matt has that sort of swagger and makes him an excellent frontman,, but he is also humble, sweet and quirky yet he still knows how to get into character, when a song asks for attitude. In the end the song delivers in every aspect of what a rock song is to me.
This was also my cel phone ring tone until DIAMANTE released "Coming In Hot". How could it not be my #1 song.

Slow down, yeah I want you
She does a little bit on the sly that shows what she's up to
She started talking about missing him, she was glistening
It won't mend your heart if it's only a couple of lines
And now she's doing it all the time
