2025-01-12 16:52:35 +0000 UTCI was a sophomore in high-school during this era of music so tbh all these songs piss me off lmao

2024-09-04 17:54:38 +0000 UTCMe looking at Kenya saying “talk dirty to me” is somewhere between fine and good hate the song it’s annoying it ain’t a chop cause it’s not like I have this urge to shut it off but I’d rather it not appear on my playlist. But I taketh and I giveth, you calling No Bass a chop is accurate cut that shit off

2024-08-28 23:32:32 +0000 UTCMe too. They played it way too much. 😂😂
Bria Hall
2024-08-28 23:30:20 +0000 UTCI loved listening to this - and I agree with about 90% of what you said 😆 You should do 2015-2023 next 👀

2024-08-28 19:31:46 +0000 UTCIdk if it’s nostalgia but I like most of them songs 🫣

2024-08-28 19:16:34 +0000 UTCokay thank you. John Legend is kinda just talking in All of Me lol but I do think that's maybe the appeal. He's just talking to his wife... But he isn't as soulful as he is in his other songs imo so it's just alright to me
Diana
2024-08-28 18:10:28 +0000 UTCbruno mars could do All of Me (better imo) but John Legend couldn’t do When I was Your Man
Reyhan
2024-08-28 17:39:50 +0000 UTCI said it on Twitter but I’ve been a Rude apologist for the longest. Like yes the entire premise of the song and the artists cosplaying Jamaicans is abysmal but I love the song 😭

2024-08-28 17:24:06 +0000 UTCJustice for Counting Stars!!

2024-08-28 17:20:55 +0000 UTCLike?!!!!

2024-08-28 17:20:49 +0000 UTCHappy is one of the few songs that makes me irate. It’s that serious lmao

2024-08-28 16:44:33 +0000 UTCActually… you’re still evil for this ranking
Viet Dau
2024-08-28 16:31:36 +0000 UTCAs a OneRepublic fan, I’ll accept a “bad” for Counting Stars since you respect Native as an album 😂
Viet Dau
2024-08-28 16:22:57 +0000 UTCAt least 2014 as opposed to now had a lot going on, there was more variety on the charts, 2024 drier than a mf rn, we get a few artists here and there that’ll pop off and then they’ll fall off a year or two later, save for doja, megan and billie, and whoever else is still relevant was relevant 10 years

2024-08-28 16:03:28 +0000 UTCI loved of all these songs except for Pompeii. I thought the video was gonna go differently lmaoo😂😂

2024-08-28 15:37:52 +0000 UTCThis is why i still listen to the radio when im driving to know what the general population like... Its actually kinda interesting to listen to
Bekah
2024-08-28 14:44:14 +0000 UTCI kinda sorta miss having a monoculture where everyone was in the loop about what's popular, but I have no idea how we'd ever get back to that or if that would be a good thing...I think artists have been more creative bc the charts are less and less important, but I miss the unity of having, like, a song of the summer or an album that even the general public is paying attention to. also echoing other comments saying you should review the top songs from other years bc I'm curious as to how 2020's top songs aged lmao
rudi!!!
2024-08-28 14:14:12 +0000 UTCLOVE naomi!!!
rudi!!!
2024-08-28 14:08:28 +0000 UTCever since I was a kid, ppl made jokes about my name like "oh, I bet Rudi is RUDE HAHAHA," so imagine my disappointment when that magic song got so popular 😭 all the jokes came back and it was so annoying!!! (I actually don't mind the song, but why were CANADIANS singing ska music in 2014 anyway)
rudi!!!
2024-08-28 14:07:25 +0000 UTCIt’s unserious 😂

2024-08-28 13:57:29 +0000 UTCTurn Down for What and All I Do is Win by DJ Khaled both give me the same visceral reaction to want to turn the fucking radio off. I genuinely HATE those songs.

2024-08-28 13:34:19 +0000 UTCOver Counting Stars was my heartbreaking moment

2024-08-28 12:56:43 +0000 UTCI love edm so I didn’t mind it 😁

2024-08-28 11:07:26 +0000 UTCKenya you giving it to talk dirty but not dark horse is diabolical actually omg
Tia
2024-08-28 08:48:20 +0000 UTCI feel like neyo “closer” and fist brown “forever” kicked off that awful EDM spasm. All the more reason to hate them 🙌🏾
Daria Black
2024-08-28 07:46:50 +0000 UTCI physically shuddered when you said “turn down for what”
Vanessa Carlos
2024-08-28 06:12:33 +0000 UTCHated happy, timber, and Dark Horse so much. Problem and Fancy stand out for me as the better songs. Kenya singing the songs has me gasping for air lol.

KRYSTAL
2024-08-28 04:01:11 +0000 UTCI literally made a post last year saying 1) 2013 was the last GOOD year of music (of the 2010s at least). 2015 and 2016 were fine, but it's never been good since, and 2) I 1000% believe 2001-2006 was the greatest stretch in music history. ALL of the girls were firing on all cylinders in pop, hiphop, rock, etc... But anyway, Fancy and Dark Horse get behind me!! Every other song on this list can go to hell frfr
Davonte
2024-08-28 03:20:49 +0000 UTCI love Royals...but a lot of the mainstream pop acts really tried to mimic that style in mass: "Cool, nonchalant pop." Lorde did it best the first time.

2024-08-28 03:11:02 +0000 UTCMTV plays in people’s faces. They’ll give you Meg as the host…but look at the lineup for performances😐.

2024-08-28 03:03:59 +0000 UTCadditionally 😭 i remember the all about that bass music video going around on tumblr before it blew up on the radio. i reblogged it and i feel partially responsible for that song's success...im sorry 😞
Nini
2024-08-28 02:52:53 +0000 UTCMy roommates and I have a running theory that Royals, while fantastic, was the beginning of the end. That and that "Rude" song
Whitney Jarrett
2024-08-28 02:51:28 +0000 UTCnaomi cannibal did a video about 2014 pop. i didn't notice that everybody was in their 50s/60s bag back then and now i hear it. also, i personally think that 2011 was a BAAAD year for music
Nini
2024-08-28 02:40:25 +0000 UTCI'm a huge cornball so I will just start clapping when Happy comes on lol...And Turn Down for What is so damn stupid and enjoyable for me ...maybe moreso because of its MV . I DESPISE sappy wedding music so John and Sam gonna get that chop from me.

2024-08-28 02:36:46 +0000 UTCI saw a man breakdancing to all of me in front of the Staten Island ferry last week and I was so annoyed I hate that song with a passion.
Cosmic Orbit
2024-08-28 02:34:42 +0000 UTC2017 <<<<< that year was painful. at least in regards to mainstream pop and the EDM wave was….aged terribly.

2024-08-28 02:00:36 +0000 UTCmy 8th grade middle school teachers forced the entire grade to make a flash dance lip sync cover of this song for our graduation. and for that reason i can not tolerate this song 😭
emiliaem
2024-08-28 02:00:12 +0000 UTCThe full 2014 list has way better songs (eg Aint it Fun, Rather Be, Royals, Latch)

aiyonna
2024-08-28 01:48:37 +0000 UTCThese songs take me back to frosh week since I started university in 2014. Happy played at every event, it was rough But now thinking back to that time, you’re right about the switch to streaming. I remember the next summer, finally signing up for Spotify premium because they had the 3 months for $1 deal and never looked back
