January 27, 20178 yr Author 20 Zara Larsson - Lush Life tD4HCZe-tew After she was featured on MNEK's surprise smash Never Forget You, Lush Life was the tropical flecked pop banger than broke Zara out as a worldwide star in her out! We all knew that Zara had immense star power, and that was proved by the fact this becoming a million "seller" (including streams ofc) in the UK throughout the course of 2016. Despite being so huge, Lush Life is one of those songs you just never get fed up of hearing it out or in shops etc. is still a moment *.* 19 Francesca Michelin - Nessun grado di separazione NXE-aTIIG30 The penultimate Eurovision entry to appear, although there is an Melfest song between them! This wasn't exactly a fan favourite but my love of the Italian langauge made this lovely song shine straight away and it was my favourite for ages until a certain song toppled it... I'd loved Francesca's debut single after winning Italian X Factor in 2012, called Distratto, but never really kept up with her until this! The album was brilliant too, she is very versatile. 18 Kelly Clarkson - Piece By Piece (Idol version) pwTMz6Nfhjg Piece By Piece was already my favourite on the same-titled album, but THAT Idol performance really made it shine even more for me. Whilst the original production is already lovely, this more stark version highlights the lyrics, letting them shine for the emotional and personal work that they are. But of course, the shining feature as always is Kelly's vocal performance, evoking every emotion the lyrics speak of effortlessly. 17 4Minute - Hate D_F9HUTYnl0 So the highest BJSC song of the year is Hate, sent by Cadelica (Oliver)! This K-Pop stomper is impeccably produced by Skrillex, with a mostly instrumental chorus that is just huge, juxtaposed with subtle verses that build up to it. It's a shame the group have now disbanded, more songs of this ilk would have been amazing. How on earth did this not make the TBO final?! 16 Ace Wilder - Don't Worry 8jxfkxBgR1c The penulimate Eurovision related entry, this really should have been Sweden's representative for Eurovision </3 This 90s inspired absolute banger is even better than 2014's Busy Doin' Nothin' somehow, with its relatable and uplifting lyrics. It did nearly as well as that in Melfest too, but was only 3rd behind Oscar Zia and the horrendous Franz. Ace is back for this year's edition, so perhaps it can be third time lucky?
January 28, 20178 yr So excited to see HATE here! It made it into my EOY as well, although not quite so high! Still, surprised to see it on anyone else's at all as it is pretty niche!
