I'm far too lazy to put together weekly charts, but here's what I've been loving the most at this point into 2015. I'm sticking as much to singles of this year, as possible. But some things that slipped through from 2014 might appear, here.

 

#40 BØRNS - 10,000 Emerald Pools.

 

#39 Marina And The Diamonds - Blue

 

#38 Everything Everything - Distant Past

 

#37 Years & Years - King

 

#36 Maroon 5 - Sugar

 

 

I know 'Sugar' is largely despised on Buzzjack, but I find it to be quite the bop.

Sugar is indeed great but BJ has a lot of hatred for Maroon 5 unfortunately.

 

King & Living For Love :wub:

#1 Marina And The Diamonds - Froot

It may seem obvious that Froot would be number 1 for my albums, but it was actually incredibly difficult ordering those top 3 as I love them all in very different ways - they actually couldn't be more different from each other.

Blue :cheer: The highlight from Froot :heart:

I also love sugar now and yay for Queen Carly slaying :cheer:

Froot smashing *_* :cheer: So glad it's up there. Hoping it will stay top 3 by the end of the year!

#15 Lykke Li - Never Gonna Love Again :cry:

 

#14 Marina And The Diamonds - Better Than That

 

#13 Darke - Peech

Sadly, I wasn't loving the album/mixtape so much, but this is a huge standout for me

 

#12 Sia - Big Girls Cry

 

#11 Calvin Harris - Pray To God Ft. Haim

 

I'll probably save the top ten until tomorrow. Hype, etc.

A lot i am loving here. Obviously Madonna and Drake ('Preach' is SOO good, i am still gutted it never got single treatment :() but also Josef Salvat, Nicki and the MAJESTIC 'Big Girls Cry'.

 

Excited for the top 10! 'King Kunta' to reign supreme somewhere in there please :D

Always great to see a chart of yours, Joe! I'm also far too lazy for a weekly one and can just about keep on top of my monthly one. Needless to say I'm liking a huge amount of this anyway! ^_^

 

Lovely to see 'Make Me A Bird' in another chart - absolutely sublime track. :wub:

 

I'm still a bit in love with everything about 'Open Season' and I love the lyrics and production on 'The Heart Wants What It Wants'. That's definitely Selena's best for me (though 'Love You Like A Love Song' remains a major bop). :music:

 

'All Hands On Deck' is really growing on me now. I was blown away by Tinashe in the video :o. What a star - she needs to go places.

 

I like your Marina picks, particularly 'Better Than That', but then I like pretty much every track on the album. Really enjoyed reading through your commentaries in the 'Froot' rate by the way! I appreciate all the effort that went into that so thanks. :D

'Fourth of July' *o* listened to his album recently and that was an easy highlight along with 'Should Have Known Better'

 

Lean On, Open Season, Can't Deny My Love, King, Distant Past and Tuesday are the best so far from here :cheer:

 

Need Your Luv :heart: Please become a single.

 

 

A few I haven't heard which I should probably check out!

YES, But I think 'Famous' may have ruined any chance of it getting much support if it does happen :( Also, I think you'd like some of the ones listed that you don't know!

 

Blue :cheer: The highlight from Froot :heart:

NEEDS to be a radio single.

 

Froot smashing *_* :cheer: So glad it's up there. Hoping it will stay top 3 by the end of the year!

I'm very sure it will be. I think I like it more than any album of last year even.

Thanks Bal. Madonna/Drake dream team. :heart:

Sufjan is so special to me - I've been a fan for probably over a decade now. Glad he's getting his first UK commercial recognition. 'Should Have Known Better' is a beaut, but I really do think the whole album is gorgeous.

I feel as though THWWIW fell under the radar for a lot of pop fans, but it really really great moody electro-pop.

 

And thanks Re-Marina. It was a pleasure to write - I'm glad someone was reading it :P

Top 10...

Edited April 15, 201510 yr by Joe.

Erm....JOINT 10th!

 

#10 Tove Styrke - Ego

This is so perfect. I mean, that opening... :heart:

 

#9 Josef Salvat - Hustler

Excited to see where Josef may go this year. This video is so creepy, moody, weird and sexy. I love it.

#8 Lykke Li - Just Hold On We're Going Home (Drake Cover)

Okay, this is far from a single of 2015, but I cannot not include this. It's one of my all time favourite artists covering another of my favourites. I could not recommend this beautifully understated version more.

 

#7 Zedd - I Want You To Know Ft. Selena Gomez

Yes, this has its generic EDM moments, but something about this just works for me. I think Selena's voice just works so well on the track: While being an upbeat song, there is something rather melancholic in her voice, which I appreciate.

 

#6 Nick Jonas - Jealous

I'm usually not one for mainstream male popstars, nothing intentional or any snobbery - they generally just don't tend to do it for me. However, I find this song hugely joyful to listen to, and find Nick as popstar quite charming.

Though the Tinashe Remix >>>>>>>>>>

#5 Tove Lo - Talking Body

Finally hitting me properly this week and in a BIG way, is Talking Body, which has already stormed up as my second favourite Tove song. What a babe.

 

#4 Jessie Ware - Champagne Kisses

One of Jessie Ware's best and most underrated songs of all time. I was loving this last year, but feel as though it belongs on the chart now, that it's been finally released.

 

#3 Kendrick Lamar - King Kunta

Clear standout of what is already an amazing album, I can still see this becoming a massive hit if gets a proper push, because it feels huge to me.

 

#2 Marina And The Diamonds - I'm A Ruin

Rightfully smashing to the top of my Froot rate this year is this amazing song. Already a Marina classic in my eyes.

 

...

 

#1 Charli XCX - Doing It Ft. Rita Ora

No other song has come close to how much I've listened to this, this year. It couldn't be anything else at number 1. Such an infectious pop song, and I'm still devastated it's yet to come on on a night out D:

Your YTD #1 is the same as mine. :wub:

 

Great to see Champagne Kisses so high, what a song! Also big yay for Nick Jonas Jealous. One of my fave male solo artist songs ever already.

 

Great chart overall and I'll attempt to get around to hearing the songs I don't know. :D

Your YTD #1 is the same as mine. :wub:

Never thought I'd have Rita on top of a chart of mine - but what can I say , I prefer her version!
