December 7, 20168 yr Author omg September Song clicked with me SO MUCH today, I'm pretty sure it'll be in my countdown this time next year (didn't make the but for mine this year, obv), I love it so much. Also good to see Crank It (Woah!) and Is This Love? there, both are great dance tracks. All of these are still to come! :D (Yes, I know you just read Dalek's comment and assumed they'd all already apperared :P ) Edited December 7, 20168 yr by WiseManFromLeeds

December 8, 20168 yr !!!!!! omg I have been unearthed as a lazy arse at long last :P Good to see Alvaro Soler (I've read this bit with my own eyes!) appear, I'm always partial to some Spanish pop :wub:
December 8, 20168 yr Author 86. Steve Angello ft. The Presets - Remember sIqwKughd1g Weeks On (Top 15): 4 / Peak: 4 / Total Points: 154 Steve Angello's 2016: ?? Prisoner (ft. Gary Go) 86. Remember (ft. The Presets) The Presets' 2016: 86. Remember (Steve Angello ft. The Presets) I think it was The Presets that really made this song for me. This would have been a clear #1 if I was making charts in 2015, and is of much higher quality than the higher positioned Prisoner. Edited December 8, 20168 yr by WiseManFromLeeds
December 8, 20168 yr Songs I know/like in your Top 100 so far.. 096 | Frans - "If I Were Sorry" This grew on me after a while but I was definitely not a fan when this won Melodifestival back in March lol. I'm still not totally sold because it feels like a cheap copy of 'Catch & Release (Deepend Rmx)' but it's okay. 094 | MK & Becky Hill - "Piece Of Me" Ohhhh how I love Becky Hill's voice! She has the perfect voice for dance songs and I'm so glad she's using it for the right thing, I just really wish she got more attention from the public. 'Piece of Me' is brilliant and the video is hilarious. 092 | Sia - "Cheap Thrills" Sia's biggest hit to date. While it's a great song and Sia generally makes everything she touches golden, I don't think this is her best song. Not even of the year (The Greatest is much better IMO). The Sean Paul version is terrible though, and this is coming from someone who usually enjoys his rent-a-rapper features. 089 | Galantis - "No Money" It took me a while to like this song but when I did I loved it! While not as great as 'Runaway' or 'PBJ' this is still a great happy-go-lucky track and always makes me wanna sing and dance! 087 | Alvaro Soler - "Sofia" I actually just relatively recently found this song and it's definitely my favorite token Spanish hit of the year lol! I have no idea what he's singing about but I assume it's an ode to this Sofia chick and I'll admit I'm hooked.

December 8, 20168 yr Author 85. Justs - Heartbeat NVcKNzmvfxI Weeks On (Top 15): 4 / Peak: 1 / Total Points: 155 Justs' 2016: 85. Heartbeat The first Eurovision #1 of the year, I think it was the 80s-style chorus that made it for me.
December 9, 20168 yr Hi Pete With Galantis, I never seem to get bored of their tracks. I think they're so euphoric and joyous that they never fail to put you in a good mood when you hear them. No Money may well be their best track yet for me, really loved it. Not heard either of those Alvaro Soler tracks but I absolutely adored El Mismo Sol when that was out, perfect for the summer months. Will have to check out what his other tracks are like after seeing that you have enjoyed them so much. Looking forward to the rest of the countdown! :D
December 9, 20168 yr Author 84. Aura - Love Somebody HwJXMytkp9Y Chart Run: (*-4-3-8-17-33-) / Total Points: 155 *Charted in the Top 15 - Top 40 changeover Aura's 2016: 84. Love Somebody An instanly catchy tune with great vocals!
December 9, 20168 yr Heartbeat and Love Somebody are both great! Both missed out on my top 40 but were bubbling under :D
December 10, 20168 yr Author 83. Mans Zelmerlow - Fire in the Rain tSCkXZMrSE8 Weeks On (Top 15): 4 / Peak: 4 / Total Points: 156 Mans Zelmerlow's 2016: 83. Fire in the Rain 242. Hanging On to Nothing Easily the best song from him this year, this instantly hit me and takes it's rightful place in the Top 100!
December 10, 20168 yr 085 | Justs - "Heartbeat" OMG yes!! This is one of my favorites from this year's contest (still have it on my playlist actually lol) but the funny thing is it didn't chart that high to begin with. It's just got a great longevity and doesn't fell all too much like a Eurovision song. His vocals are also soooooo good. I love it. 083 | Måns Zelmerlöw - "Fire in the Rain" I haven't listened much to this one except during the contest and I much prefer 'Shouldve Gone Home' and 'Hanging On To Nothing' to it but it can definitely be said that Måns knows how to produce a great pop song!
December 10, 20168 yr Love Somebody - very good pop song that, only just scraped my Chart but not a huge amount of pop songs do so safe to say I was a fan of it!
December 10, 20168 yr Author Heartbeat and Love Somebody are both great! Both missed out on my top 40 but were bubbling under :D Glad you like these songs! Shame they never made your Top 40 Thanks Joseph :D Heartbeat :heart: Definitely one of my Eurovision faves this year! Agreed. This was the song that hit me the most during the show! Thanks mdh :D 085 | Justs - "Heartbeat" OMG yes!!

Glad you like these songs :D I agree that Should've Gone Home is better than this, but I never really got into Hanging On To Nothing Thanks Jafetsigfinns :D Love Somebody - very good pop song that, only just scraped my Chart but not a huge amount of pop songs do so safe to say I was a fan of it! Glad you like it! It hit me the first time I heard it, and it's so catchy! Thanks Dobbo :D
December 10, 20168 yr Author 82. Milow - Howling At the Moon pUcREla9gzY Weeks On (Top 15): 4 / Peak: 5 / Total Points: 157 Mlow's 2016: 82. Howling At the Moon Took me a bit to get into this song, that's the reason it only just scraped the Top 5, but it spent 3 weeks in the Top 10 (unlikely for a #5 peak song)
December 11, 20168 yr Author 81. Audien ft. Deb's Dughter - Crazy Love NgzlmUmwJJc Chart Run: (35-19-8-5-8-19-35-) / Total Points: 158 Audien's 2016: 81. Crazy Love Deb's Daughter's 2016: 81. Crazy Love (Audien ft. Deb's Daughter) Somehow this song managed a perfectly symmetrical chart run!
