18 5.585714286 I’ll Keep Loving You (featuring Jaymes Young & Birdy)

#18. I’ll Keep Loving You (featuring Jaymes Young & Birdy)

 

AVERAGE: 5.59/10

I'll keep loving you: gavindeejay, Nick F1 (8.0)

I don't love you: Henderella (2.0)

 

 

starting with one of the lowlights, which saw David Guetta trying to do the whole subtlety thing but it doesn't really work for him, he's better at the bangers.

#17. The Whisperer (featuring Sia)

 

AVERAGE: 7.00/10

The whisperer: Regina, Cody Slayberry (10.0)

The shouter: Dobbo (-1.0)

 

 

Was hoping this would be a bit higher, although it's not really what I want from Guetta and it doesn't sound like his song at all it is a lovely piano ballad. Sia's vocal is really good on it anyway.

#16. Dangerous (Robin Schulz Remix) (featuring Sam Martin)

 

AVERAGE: 7.07/10

Dangerous (Robin Schulz Remix): LeeWallace, James1987 (9.5)

The remix is too dangerous for my liking: Henderella (2.0)

 

 

Yes this remix did make it onto the deluxe edition of the album, even though David himself did a remix of this song he put this one on the album instead (lol). The original version is of course yet to come and is better imo but this is a nice remix.

#15. Goodbye Friend (featuring The Script)

 

AVERAGE: 7.07/10

Goodbye friend: Cody Slayberry (11.0)

You're not my friend: Henderella (3.0)

 

 

Not surprised to see this quite low down, it is a bit of a filler although still quite good. It did attract one 11 though which definitely helped its score (would have been 2nd to last otherwise.

#14. Shot Me Down (featuring Skylar Grey)

 

AVERAGE: 7.18/10

Shot me down: Dan, Dobbo, Ethan (10.0)

Shoot you down: mr_aly (-1.0)

 

 

The first of 6 singles to be knocked out then, and unfortunately it is this which was the first single from the album (although eventually only made it to the deluxe edition) and was met with a lot of hate for being unoriginal. Though I personally love it, and it is one of 2 tracks I gave 10/10 to (and I awarded no 11)

#13. Lovers On The Sun (featuring Sam Martin)

 

AVERAGE: 7.21/10

Lovers on the sun: Ethan (9.0)

Getting burned on the sun: Liam (2.0)

 

 

This song gave Avicii another UK #1 so I've got to love it for that, although it is a very safe track so unsurprisingly it didn't get the best rep. I quite like it but it's not one of his classic singles really, and it doesn't finish that high here either with a lot of album tracks beating it. Four singles left to go as well.

 

The top 12 will be revealed tomorrow. Here are the contenders now

 

xx 1. Dangerous (featuring Sam Martin)

xx 2. What I Did For Love (featuring Emeli Sande)

xx 3. No Money No Love (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring Elliphant & Ms Dynamite)

xx 6. Lift Me Up (featuring Nico & Vinz)

xx 7. Listen (featuring John Legend)

xx 8. Bang My Head (featuring Sia)

xx 9. Yesterday (featuring Bebe Rexha)

xx 10. Hey Mama (featuring Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha & Afrojack)

xx 11. Sun Goes Down (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring MAGIC! & Sonny Wilson)

xx 12. S.T.O.P (featuring Ryan Tedder)

xx 15. Bad (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring Vassy)

xx 16. Rise (featuring Skylar Grey)

 

Shame LOTS wasn't higher :(

Loving those subtitles too :heehee:

LOTS and shot me down should be higher, the former is a good track and the latter is a mess but a kind of in a way good mess

'lovers on the sun', 'shot you down', & dangerous (robin schulz rmx) should be a LOT higher...

 

the other 3 are actually the worst tracks on the album :lol:

Edited July 14, 201510 yr by Ethan

So glad 'Shot Me Down' finished low here, god-awful abomination.

"Goodbye Friend" tho :angry:

 

You all are flops

 

I hope Hey Mama wins to punish you Daniel

#12. Listen (featuring John Legend)

 

AVERAGE: 7.25/10

Listen: gavindeejay (9.0)

Turn it off: Henderella (2.0)

 

 

So yeah Guetta collaborated with the chart murderer that is Legend but it doesn't actually make for a bad song, although it is quite average really and not one I go back to.

#11. No Money No Love (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring Elliphant & Ms Dynamite)

 

AVERAGE: 7.26/10

No money no love: Josh (10.0)

No love for this song: Henderella, LeeWallace (4.0)

 

 

Another one of his ~okay~ tracks and so rightly sits in the middle area of the list. The drop does feel a bit disconnected from the rest of the track and the vocal isn't the best either.

#10. S.T.O.P (featuring Ryan Tedder)

 

AVERAGE: 7.39/10

S.T.O.P: Cody Slayberry (9.5)

Stop right now: Henderella (3.0)

 

 

Well this is a bit better, it does sound quite Alesso which is probably why I like it. Plus Ryan proves again that he's good in dance songs.

#09. Rise (featuring Skylar Grey)

 

AVERAGE: 7.54/10

Rise: Cody Slayberry, LeeWallace (10.0)

Falling: Henderella (4.0)

 

 

Another song from the deluxe tracklist drops out here, and I'm not sure why this was demoted to only deluxe edition because it is better than a lot of the songs from the main edition. It even went top 100 on iTunes for a while after being used in a TV show, slay.

#08. Lift Me Up (featuring Nico & Vinz)

 

AVERAGE: 7.61/10

Lift me up: gavindeejay, Dobbo (10.0)

Drop me off a cliff: Henderella (2.0)

 

 

One of the best tracks from the album up next, and one of three album tracks I think definitely should have been singles (although anything would have been a better choice than Hey Mama). Was an instant non-single highlight when I first gave the album a listen (:basil:) although I now prefer Bang My Head and Yesterday (which are both yet to come)

I actually quite enjoyed Listen :(

#07. Sun Goes Down (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring MAGIC! & Sonny Wilson)

 

AVERAGE: 7.68/10

Sun goes down: Ethan (11.0)

Sun blinds you: Henderella (3.0)

 

 

Bleh, found this one quite poor in terms of the album but at least it's listenable. The Sonny Wilson vocals are a little offputting but overall it is quite good.

 

Top 6 coming later in the day which consist of the following.

 

xx 1. Dangerous (featuring Sam Martin)

xx 2. What I Did For Love (featuring Emeli Sande)

xx 8. Bang My Head (featuring Sia)

xx 9. Yesterday (featuring Bebe Rexha)

xx 10. Hey Mama (featuring Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha & Afrojack)

xx 15. Bad (David Guetta & Showtek) (featuring Vassy)

 

Who will win then?

 

#06. What I Did For Love (featuring Emeli Sande)

 

AVERAGE: 7.74/10

What I did for love: Liam, gavindeejay, James1987 (10.0)

What I didn't do: Regina (-1.0)

 

 

Another single down now, and another strong effort by David although not one of my all time faves from him it did the job. It of course helped that we hadn't heard from Emeli Sandé in ages so it didn't suffer from her overexposure. This all means there are 3 singles left in the top 5, will one of them be #1 though?
