Ughhhh NO. It's her best.

 

'FourFiveSeconds' I absolutely adore!

Pretty solid top 15, 'Who's That Chick' and 'Princess of China' to go first though please..

I'd agree with those, 'Who's That Chick' NEEDS to go. I don't dislike it but I just never come back to it, it's one of those songs where I honestly can't remember the last time I heard it :lol:

 

15-13 just coming now, and we'll try and go from there to #1 by the end of the weekend!

Yeah I always forget about it! I doubt it's remembered much by the public either, despite it being quite a big hit.

I remember it was when she had three top 10s at the same time! ICON.

Truly the black Madonna

Aww, I like all three of those but CRTFY is definitely too low. The song is so catchy and I remember being obsessed with the second verse sung by Rihanna when it was first released. Plus the video is so good, one of my favourite video by Rih actually, they both look so good in it *-*

 

Yay at you shouting out the Key of Awesome video for it too, I remember laughing so much at the frog in Shakira's throat joke :lol:

Lightning strikes everytime she moves


15 // 8.05 Who's that Chick? (with David Guetta)
14 // 8.10 All Of The Lights (with Kanye West)
13 // 8.17 This Is What You Came For

'All Of The Lights' is my favourite here tbh. I don't come back to it much and I'm not a particular fan of Kanye's music but Rih makes the song and it was another one that really came to life in the tour medley! 'Who's That Chick' is quite good, as I said it's one I never go back to so that's all I can really say :lol: I actually forgot 'This Is What You Came For' was still in this! :o My least fave of the top 15, it's not bad per se but it just always failed to excite me, as much as I tried. :( I love the video though, something about is absolutely STUNNING! <3

I couldn't resist :kink: Definitely my favorite Rih parody haha, and one of my all time faves along with the 'Hello' one they did *.* I'm a ghost x

As if This Is What You Came For is this low, I think that's set to be one of her defining tracks in years to come.. Would definitely have that in my top 10, it's undeniably catchy.

 

All of the Lights came on 4Music the other day and it was the first time I'd heard it in years but it sounded so good, the chorus is my highlight of the song for sure but the raps are really strong too. One of my favourite Kanye tracks with Black Skinhead, No Church in the Wild and Run this Town, I think. Rih and Kanye work really well together *-*

'All of the Lights' 😍😍😍

My two absolute favourites together. They need to do more collaborations.

 

Big fan of 'This Is What You Came For' too, although I haven't listened to it much recently. I love the video too, the whole setup works really well and she looks incredible. That outfit 👌🏼

Ew TIWYCF, worst song on this list.

 

All Of The Lights is so huge sounding, I don't go back to it as much as I should but when I do I always realise how bloody good it is.

We're kicking this off from 9pm tonight!! Predictions? :o

TIWYCF is quite a distance from the massive jam on toast that is We Found Love but I still think I'd've preferred it to reach the top 10. WTC has to be a pretty big loss here so far though. Several years on and it's STILL a club classic :wub: all you haters!! etc. :lol: I really enjoy AOFTL as well, especially the production although Rihanna doesn't give us her best vocals in it and I don't think there's many Kanye fans on here (I only like a handful of his songs anyway) so I'll let it pass :kink:

LTWYL out right now please thanks

1 and 2 and 3 and 4, come and let me know if you want some more


12 // 8.19 Talk That Talk (feat. Jay Z)
11 // 8.21 Princess Of China (with Coldplay)

'Talk That Talk' and 'Princess Of China' just miss out on a place in the top 10!! I'd have placed TTT in the top 10 tbh, it's great fun and a catchy bop even if Jay Z's rap is one of the most cringeworthy things I've ever heard :') TTT managed to get to #25 on it's album release week and #17 on iTunes but when it was actually a single it had no video and little promo so only managed to return to #25 and left the chart pretty quickly, but still managed to get a silver certification

'Princess Of China' I really like but it's just something I don't come back to really, the video is incredible though and a Rih video highlight for sure! *.* It's clearly well liked on here as it nearly managed to get top 10, but what is that top 10? :o

Hard (feat. Jeezy)

Love The Way You Lie (with Eminem)

Run This Town (with Jay Z and Kanye West)

Stay (feat. Mikky Ekko)

Take Care (with Drake)

Umbrella (feat. Jay Z)

We Found Love (feat. Calvin Harris)

What's My Name? (feat. Drake)

Wild Thoughts (with DJ Khaled)

Work (feat. Drake)

 

Kicking off tonight~

For two fairly credible artists, "Talk That Talk" is really cringey. It's still a banger tho.

 

EXCITED for the top ten! ;o

It's just that rap lmao, I think the 'peeing' lines etc are supposed to be funny but we really don't need to know x

I'd rank those two about 8.5/9 out of 10.

I'm addicted to the thrill, it's a dangerous love affair



10 // 8.29 Run This Town (with Jay Z and Kanye West)
9 // 8.31 Work (feat. Drake)

Kicking off the top ten is "Run This Town", Rih's second collaboration with Jay Z and first with Kanye West. The track was released in summer 2009 when thirst for Rihanna's comeback album (Rated R) was at an all-time high. "Run This Town" preceded the singles from that album, with many thinking it would be the lead at the time. It's an incredible slice of urban Rihanna and was one of the first times that we really started to hear growth in her vocals after what many considered a couple of 'whinier' albums (as seen in the live video as the official one is not on YouTube x). I think this is probably the first time that I really started to stan hard for Rihanna and I'm glad many of you consider it as highly as I do.

It became her third UK #1 single in three years and peaked at #2 in the US.

Now we're talking about comeback singles, "Work" is the one to top them all. Almost a year since Rih released "Bitch Better Have My Money" and still no news of an album, we patiently waited into 2016 for the release of "Work" and Anti shortly afterwards, which did not disappoint. It was the perfect re-introduction to Pop's #2 couple and shows off Rihanna's personality perfectly, so much so that she gave us two videos for the song! In terms of production, it was a slight foray away from the dance banger that led us into previous campaigns, although the chorus is still as enjoyable as ever.

"Work" was Rihanna's third collaboration with Drake and became her 14th(!) Billboard Hot 100 #1 single while it was yet another song to peak at #2 in the UK.

FINALLY :lol:

 

Run This Town is a tune! :music: glad it has recognition in here. I'm surprised actually :D

 

Shoulda rated to give Work my -1 :heehee:

But it's alright because I love the way you lie, I love you way you lie


8 // 8.45 Take Care (with Drake)
7 // 8.50 Love The Way You Lie (with Eminem)

Falling out in 8th place is 'Take Care' Rih's 2012 collaboration with Drake. It was released in late 2011 and actually got to it's peak within two weeks but it stuck around and ended up spending an incredible 26 weeks in the top 40 and going platinum! 'Take Care' is another song I need to appreciate more, as with Princess Of China/etc I really like it but it's a song that often slips outta my mind and I hardly ever listen to it :( Rih's chemistry with Drake really shows in the video and she received much acclaim for her part in the package.

'Love The Way You Lie' is an incredibly emotional track with Eminem, the chorus still gets me every time somehow <3 Some stans speculated it threwback to Chris Brown's disgusting assault on her and if so we can only IMAGINE how hard that must have been to sing about. A Part 2 of the song was released on the Loud album with more Rih and less Eminem which is what I listen to 90% of the time, I love the song so much but Eminem's vocals kinda ruin it for me so I kinda have to if I want to enjoy it :lol: LTWYL peaked at #2 but became the best selling song of 2010, the only time she's had the best selling song in a year!!
