Going up the top three tonight! I will actually stick to my promise and go to the top three tonight x
I wonder how well this song did on Tidal  6. Wave (with Mike Sabath) Average: 7.85 This world was made for us: TomHo (11) Billy., UltraReputation, NickF1, dannjohn, J00psyMethyd (10) This love's a sinking boat: sorryisslayed (5) Tawdry Hepburn, Dexton, Jordan Lee (6) 'Wave' was very much the re-launch of the Treat Myself era after it was delayed following all the singles flopping, being released over a year after 'All The Ways'. It gave us a new sound from Meghan in an alt-pop, synthy style. It wasn't a hit but did get a lot of praise and I think she surprised people with this *.* I was surprised this came so high but what helped it out was that unlike the other tracks in the top 10, it received literally NO low scores and at worse was considered a bit meh. While I'm not sure I'd put it this high I am not complaining at 'Wave' getting some recognition on here, the production is so hooking and interesting and it's a fab sound for her  I'm interested in those that hadn't heard 'Wave' before the rate (I'm sure there must be some  ), did you rate it high? Will it be part of your regular Meghan listening, if such a thing exists: |

So the top five is:
Just Got Paid Me Too Nice To Meet Ya No No Excuses I wasn't expecting Me Too (I thought that had more haters than lovers ) or No Excuses to be there at all! Not bad for Nice To Meet Ya either

Some more chat on the results would be appreciated
 The turnout was decent so I was hoping for a few more comments ngl. Did your mama raise you to put this in the top 5? Yes she did *.* 5. No Excuses Average: 8.02 I don't disrespect you: UltraReputation, Cameron, TomHo, Riser (10) ...ready for it, George.keh, Jack, JulianNial, dannjohn, Wall (9) What you sippin' on that got you talking crazy?: Tawdry Hepburn (5) Billy., J00psyMethyd, WinterFreeze, Jordan Lee (6) 'No Excuses' was released on the 1st of March 2018 as the lead single from 'Treat Myself'. I remember being SO excited for this lol, it was snowing that week as well  The song is a fairly short-and-simple bop that is closer in sound and styling to the Title era than her sophomore. Despite a decent iTunes performance, especially in the US, the song just didn't register on Spotify (idk how it did on Apple though) and ended up peaking at #46 in America and #72 in the UK. F***ing Spotify  This was her final solo single to get Radio One support.This is the most infectious song ever The only reason it got an 8.5 from me and not a real high score is it's length (although quite a few songs are like that nowadays, not 2018 Meghan being a trendsetter *.*) and the fact the lyrics...don't change at all. I can't help but love it though and it really did deserve better. Wasn't expecting this to come top 5 at all! |

If I was you, I'd wanna comment too x
I promise I didn't edit Meghan's score to make it look smaller (please tell me y'all get that reference) 4. Me Too Average: 8.04 If I was you, I'd wanna be me too: sorryisslayed, Cameron, Wall (11) Jack, TomHo, Riser (10) They can't do it like I do: SamJudd (3) Jordan Lee (4) 'Me Too' was the 2nd single from 'Thank You' and at the time was very polarising. Especially the video :') The promo for the song went all out with Meghan accidentally falling over on Jimmy Fallon (?) and a big controversy about her waist being edited in the video causing it to be taken down. Some thought it was an important statement to make, some thought it was a publicity stunt but either way the whole package of the song certainly got us talking! I remember the controversy making Gogglebox  The song was a big iTunes hit in the US, at a time where pure sales had declined a lot already but big hits still sold well, so despite it's Spotify underperformance it still peaked at #13 there. Weirdly in Australia it acc outpeaked 'NO' getting to #4 and being certified 4x platinum *____* Over here the mediocre airplay and Spotify blacklisting could only take it so far sadly and it only peaked at #84, but it's gone silver so I'd say it's definitely more remembered than it's peak.Another surprise for me! I thought this was such a divisive song, I read back the thread of it on here and I'd say the reaction was leaning more towards negative but I guess it helps that the biggest haters didn't vote in this :') Although thinking about the thread it's deffo grown on a few posters at least. I was absolutely a bit 'wtf' when I heard this (although 'Watch Me Do', an album track on Thank You was even more wtf in it's lyrics lol) but it's a catchy, life defining bop. Not a word shall be said against it x |

I was ready to give MT my -1, before I rated... but I relistened and it's infectiously catchy.

I'm definitely a lot more fond of 'Me Too' since its release, it's a really well-known song for something that peaked at #84.

Not quite another #1 for Onika here........
But this deserved-better-bop still does pretty well xx 3. Nice To Meet Ya (feat. Nicki Minaj) Average: 8.33 Blessed by the heavens: Billy., Andrew., Jack, JulianNial, JosephStyles, TomHo, Jonjo, Wall (10) George.keh (9.5) Had to cut the grass, there was snakes in the camp: Jordan Lee (3) Dexton (4.5) 'Nice To Meet Ya' was dropped with the album on the 31st of January! The track came with a video the same day which is already iconic, although it has a criminally low 20m views  The song apparently was recorded a while ago but they were waiting for Nicki to come on board which can only have helped it. It wasn't a huge hit but it did peak at #88 in both the US and UK mainly down to YouTube, returning her the top 100 which is something I suppose. This was an 11 contender for me! The video is BRILLIANT and probably her best ever, and the song is just so infectious. Nicki hasn't been at her best the last few years but she was in fine form on this song, probably one of her best features ever *.* God I love the video so much, it's been on repeat for weeks A really impressive showing I think given it wasn't huge and hasn't had the years to bed in like the other top tracks have (minus Wave lol). WD Meghan / Nicki / Buzzjack  |

I'm predicting a 'No' win, but here for 'Just Got Paid' too. I like both!

What's has Buzzjack rated as Meghan's best song?
In second place...... 2. Just Got Paid (w/ Sigala, Ella Eyre & French Montana) Average: 8.61 Gimme that, gimme that, gimme that: Jordan Lee (11) Billy., George.keh, Cameron, Wall (10) Can't pay my rent this month: ...ready for it, SamJudd, dannjohn (7) Nick F1, sorryisslayed, Joseph Styles (7.5) Buzzjack's second favourite Meghan song is 'Just Got Paid'! The dance pop bop was released on the 7th of September 2018 shortly before Sigala's album 'Brighter Days'. It's a feel good, fun anthem and I can see why people took to it on here and the charts. It almost but not quite returned Meghan to the top 10 in the UK after a three year absence, getting to #11. It was certified platinum here, making it her biggest hit in the UK since Marvin Gaye and her last solo hit to be bigger was Lips Are Movin' It might've even outsold one or both of those although I doubt it. Can't help but love this It's just an all out bop that everyone goes crazy over at a party etc. The only thing is it feels a bit off coming 2nd in a Meghan rate because to me I don't really...care about her on the song? I like the 'gimme that gimme that gimme that' bit in Meghan's verse but it's all about Ella on here for me. I never really think of it as a Meghan song, that's just me though so I might be on my own ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Doesn't make it any less great of a song, French's rap is one of the best parts of the song as well! No one at all gave this a bad score which shows how liked it is. Which means........... |

Your winner, the song that receives the accolade of being Meghan Trainor's best on Buzzjack is.........
1. NO Average: 9.20 So cute and so sweet: Andrew., UltraReputation, Nick F1, Jack, Joseph Styles, Commander Cody (11) ...ready for it, George.keh, Jonjo, Wall (10) Thank you in advance, I don't wanna dance: Dexton (4) Sam Judd (6.5) 'NO' is Buzzjack's favourite Meghan song! A fabulous average of 9.20 shows y'all are here for it. 'NO' was the lead single from Thank You and despite lagging a bit on spotify it was a very positive start to the era, it was everywhere at the time! It peaked at #3 in America and apparently wasn't far off becoming her second #1 and went top 10 in many other countries. It was so close to a top 10 here but just missed out The song is a change in style for Meghan, going from doo-wop to late 90's/early 00's pop and the raunchy video is also a change. It was divisive, but that's Meghan I guess!I'm listening to this as I type this and I considered a few songs for my 11 when rating but honestly there's no more deserving winner. Just pure pop perfection. It showed in the results too, I mean obviously as it won the f***ing thing lmao, but with only two scores below an 8 (you can see who they were  ) it's clearly held with great affection, even by those who generally aren't Meghan fans I remember at the time they were saying it was good. Despite it missing the top 10 and underperforming a little here I'd say it's very well remembered, I remember it played in maths class or people just started singing it like a year ago and everyone knew it *____* The 'untouchable' bits and that second verse in particular are just omg. A classic pop song, thank you Meghan! (and I love the video.)Thank you EVERYONE who's commented, rated or engaged in any way! It's been fun hosting this rate and hopefully it's reminded you just how strong her discography is. Full results coming up in a bit! |

Just Got Paid is good but I'm much more glad to see one of her own songs win! That's a great average for NO as well.
Thanks for hosting Andrew! |

An undeniably deserving winner.
Feels so weird that 'Just Got Paid' is 2nd, given that she's barely even on the song! This post has been edited by Tawdry Hepburn: May 18 2020, 06:11 PM |
