Posted November 26, 201311 yr Hello. I don't visit these parts much (well, at all) these days but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good countdown. What exactly I'll be counting down and in what number have yet to be decided but when it drops I'm sure it'll be fabulous! As usual, the normal LexC disclaimers apply. This thread will not include flashy graphics or animations, the quality of the commentary may vary extraordinarily between sections and I do not claim to have any degree of good taste. HYPE!

November 29, 201311 yr Author (Last bit of hype before the actual thing begins, I promise!) I shall begin by counting down my top 100 songs of 2013. In order to qualify for this list the songs must have first made an impact on me in 2013. So therefore the following songs will not chart here even though they're among my top tracks of the year because they first impressed me in 2012: Le Youth - C O O L Icona Pop - I Love It

November 30, 201311 yr hoping to see some good tracks up in hurr (that top 10 from last year is quite decent overall. Never liked 'Your Body', but Too Close, Skyfall and Gangnam Style (:o) easily make up for it <3)
December 1, 201311 yr Author HERE WE GO. THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS 91. VV Brown - Knife 92. will.I.am - Bang Bang 93. Polly Scattergood - Wanderlust 94. Cookies N Beans - Burning Flags 95. Daft Punk ft Pharell - Get Lucky 96. AlunaGeorge - Kaleidoscope Love 97. Ellie Goulding - How Long Will I Love You 98. London Grammar - Wasting My Young Years 99. Jessie J - It's My Party 100. YADi - The Blow -x- Kicking off the top 100 we have a section combining the popular and the obscure, the artistic and the reductive and the successfull and the flops. Get Lucky sees a much lower position here than it inevitably will in the official EOY and is the ONLY appearance of Pharrell on this chart. That's right LexC is AGAINST Blurred Lines. Tracks you might not know immediately include underrated Allecian BJSC flops 'The Blow' featuring Arab Spring-adjacent political video and indie darling Polly Scattergood with what I actually should've sent to BJSC rather than 'Disco Damaged Kid' and Melodifestivalen AC flops/Dixie Chicks tribute band Cookies'N'Beans.
December 3, 201311 yr URBAN 91. VV Brown - Knife absolute stunner! glad it's crept in and expecting a few more v v good ones too! 95. Daft Punk ft Pharell - Get Lucky 97. Ellie Goulding - How Long Will I Love You 98. London Grammar - Wasting My Young Years i like this x 99. Jessie J - It's My Party *.* guiltiest pleasure of the year! So guilty & so so pleasurable B-)
December 3, 201311 yr Jessie J ;O Loving the inclusion of Cookies N Beans the most in that section, it seems quite underrated as a Melfest track. And I did not remember having the same top 2 (but swapped around) last year! Fabulous <3
December 3, 201311 yr Author 81. Emmelie De Forest - Beat The Speed Of Sound 82. Birdy - Wings 83. Nicole Scherzinger - Boomerang 84. Krista Sigfrieds - Marry Me 85. AlunaGeorge - Attracting Flies 86. Paramore - Still Into You 87. The Vamps - Can We Dance 88. Wilkinson - Afterglow 89. MKTO - Thank You 90. Little Nikki - Little Nikki Says -x- I'd like to declare this section the 'oh I didn't know LexC liked that' section. As usual the obligatory poppy BJSC hits and the first of an undisclosed number of ESC songs appear here. We also see guilty pleasure 'Can We Dance', to which I reply, SHU'UP!. V indie and v hip 'Afterglow', 'Still Into You' and 'Attracting Flies' fill out the rest of this section whilst Emmelie De Forest makes the first of her three appearences from her very good and very underrated post-ESC cash-in album tops it.
December 3, 201311 yr Quite a decent section there from what I've heard - although I was never big on Attracting Flies and Still Into You. Can We Dance is a surprisingly good boyband song though, I don't love it but me not hating a boyband song is major praise! Afterglow is a tune! :heart:
December 3, 201311 yr Author 71. Mel Jade - Not That Serious 72. Anouk - Birds 73. Brigit Mendler - Ready Or Not 74. CHVRCHES - Gun 75. M83 ft Susanne Sundfor - Oblivion 76. Elitsa & Stoyan - Samo Shampioni 77. Duke Dumont ft A*M*E - Need U (100%) 78. Kelly Sweet - Sirens 79. Imagine Dragons - Radioactive 80. Taylor Swift - Red -x- OMG doesn't Lex have such 'alternative' tastes! Highlights of this section include the last song we need called 'Radioactive', the soundtravk to the quite terrible film 'Oblivion' called, well, Oblivion. Another in a long line of fabulous Bulgarian ESC songs (R.I.P) and the song y'all were too dumb to appreciate the beauty of in BJSC 'Not That Serious' (totes not bitter or anything).
December 3, 201311 yr Need U and Radioactive are jams :heart: but yeah I agree we don't need any more songs called 'Radioactive' :lol: 'Ready Or Not' remains awful though :(
December 4, 201311 yr 81-90 is quite the perfect section (and a few should be slightly higher tbh). Aside from not knowing Emmelie had other songs.
December 4, 201311 yr *.* Sirens! This countdown is largely going from strength to strength. Good. B+
December 4, 201311 yr Still Into You! Attracting Flies! Sirens! Not That Serious (so underrated :()! Radioactive! Samo Shampioni (:()! Gun! Some very good sections coming up here (and no I didn't know you liked some of those).
