December 27, 201410 yr Wiggle is horrible and awful. Easily one of the worst songs this year :puke2: However chandelier is a stunning masterpiece :wub: Girl get IT together! Great sections there Daniel, Ghost remains an absolute tune. Amazing!
December 27, 201410 yr If U Got It is really underrated! oooh and Oliver Nelson's "Ghost" edit getting a spot! he's put out some really nice remixes this year, hopefully some more to come in 2015~ hope the likes of Pushing On and Sunlight are set to make an appearance later :dancing:

In a contrast to their big hit, the lyrics here are rather sad, it's the classic scenario of someone wanting someone who's not into them but you can really feel her emotion in this and with Clean Bandit's trademark strings alongside them it adds to that factor which I love. Such an underrated song. And I really should mention how good the intro is. Really sets the tone well. Gotta give them credit anyway for making their own style of dance music anyway, the album was in my top 5 of the year. ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ • certifications: gold = 250k, plat = 500k

The trap beat obviously helps, but Katy really shines on this. I love how she's not done a typical pop song for once and it really works. And then we have Juicy J's rapping which isn't exactly "great" but I do like it. A well done song anyway and deservedly a massive hit. ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ • certifications: gold = 250k, plat = 500k
December 27, 201410 yr erm wtf is that dark horse artwork when the official artwork is amongst the best this year, ITS STUNNING on to the song, definitely one of the best this year for me. i love the trap beat too and the final chorus is stunning when she ad libs a bit. she suits this type of supernatural-ish song really well i think, e.t being another one of her best for me

December 28, 201410 yr changing is a great drum n bass track with lovely vocals too, sounds like something from rudimental and quite similar to waiting all night i think which i love too. i prefer changing to nobody to love as well. reckless ardor is nice, i've only listened to it once a few months ago but i remember liking it a lot. i prefer breathin though
December 28, 201410 yr Author Girl get IT together! Great sections there Daniel, Ghost remains an absolute tune. Amazing! yeah Ghost is great, I imagine it'll be very high in your chart If U Got It is really underrated! oooh and Oliver Nelson's "Ghost" edit getting a spot! he's put out some really nice remixes this year, hopefully some more to come in 2015~ hope the likes of Pushing On and Sunlight are set to make an appearance later :dancing: far too underrated I think, though to be fair it doesn't exactly sound like a huge chart hit so it was never gonna do too well would love to hear more from him soon, the Ghost remix is v~ disco both of those will be in my top 40 :D Extraordinary :puke2: The song is just extra ordinary and sounds really bad :( At least real love is good and rather be is amazing :wub: Rather Be is indeed amazing and will be very high in my chart! Shame about the Extraordinary hate :( Extraordinary is nice and at the time I was calling it her best single but looking back she does seem a bit bored on it really. Nevertheless, the production on it is flawless as we've come to expect from Clean Bandit. The vocalist works for the song imo, obviously she's no Jess Glynne but the song's great erm wtf is that dark horse artwork when the official artwork is amongst the best this year, ITS STUNNING on to the song, definitely one of the best this year for me. i love the trap beat too and the final chorus is stunning when she ad libs a bit. she suits this type of supernatural-ish song really well i think, e.t being another one of her best for meNo it's not. But yeah the song is great, I like the verses and chorus equally Dark horse is amazing, by far the best song from this era :wub:Definitely! The rest of the era's been a big disappointment. Changing is amazing :wub: especially Paloma's stunning vocals :wub:Thought you'd love Changing being this high! changing is a great drum n bass track with lovely vocals too, sounds like something from rudimental and quite similar to waiting all night i think which i love too. i prefer changing to nobody to love as well. reckless ardor is nice, i've only listened to it once a few months ago but i remember liking it a lot. i prefer breathin thoughWaiting All Night made my top 40 of last year so that comparison is quite apt. Reckless Ardor is lovely :heart: Considered it for BJSC actually but I've already sent EDX and I wasn't sure if everyone would appreciate its brilliance :(

It doesn't matter that I don't understand half of what he's saying, it's just so swagtastic and cool. I love the song's rhythm too, it's great seeing songs like this chart well as it doesn't happen often.

Unfortunately the vocal radio mix cuts out the 2nd one :angry: but the extended vocal mix doesn't so I love that too. A real banger of a tune anyway which really shows that Heldens is here to stay (and to slay). Wouldn't surprise me if he enters the top 10 in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll next year, and it'd be completely deserved. ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ • certifications: gold = 250k, plat = 500k

With 90s vibes and heavenly house chords scattered throughout, leading to a stunning climax, it was something I really got behind. The vocal is great too, but it is the stunning 90s inspired but certainly original production that makes the song a pleasure to listen to.
