We had this topic a year ago, how have your opinions on Rih's lead singles changed since then??

:wub: :wub:

1. Diamonds

2. Work (feat. Drake)

3. Russian Roulette

 

<3

4. Umbrella (feat. Jay Z)

5. SOS

6. Pon De Replay

7. Only Girl (In The World)

 

:)

8. We Found Love (feat. Calvin Harris)

 

Diamonds and Russian Roulette are still absolutely stunning, two of my favourites by her <3 'Work' has really crept up for me recently and cemented itself as an all time favourite, that beat is just insane and it's one of those tracks you dance drunk to when you're sober *.* Y'all know what I'm talking about surely ;o

^completely agree with you regarding drunk dancing to "Work" ;o Although I can't at "We Found Love" below "Pon de Replay".

 

Mine:

 

1. "We Found Love

2. "Work"

 

3. "Only Girl (in the World)"

4. "Diamonds"

5. "Umbrella"

 

6. "SOS"

7. "Pon de Replay"

 

8. "Russian Roulette"

^completely agree with you regarding drunk dancing to "Work" ;o Although I can't at "We Found Love" below "Pon de Replay".

 

Mine:

 

1. "We Found Love

2. "Work"

 

3. "Only Girl (in the World)"

4. "Diamonds"

5. "Umbrella"

 

6. "SOS"

7. "Pon de Replay"

 

8. "Russian Roulette"

I think I've said my opinion on WFL about a million times so I'm not gonna bore y'all again, but Pon De Replay is a track that I should've given a lot more love to :( Maybe a little outdated but still a huge bop, although it is easy to forget considering everything she's done since then.

Fair play. In terms of big artist debuts it does work - I consider it more "Just Dance" bop than "Crazy in Love" though :P

01. Diamonds

02. Work

03. We Found Love

04. Umbrella

05. Only Girl (In the World)

06. Pon de Replay

07. SOS

08. Russian Roulette

 

That top 5 though! Hard to rank them but 'Diamonds' is definitely #1.

01 Work

02 We Found Love

03 Russian Roulette

04 Diamonds

05 Umbrella

06 Pon de Replay

07 SOS

08 Only Girl (in the World)

 

Actually no idea how to order 3, 4 and 5, that could've gone any way!

That top 2 is undeniable though.

01. Diamonds (one of my all-time fave songs, I have so much love for it)

02. Work

03. We Found Love

04. Umbrella

05. Russian Roulette

06. Pon de Replay

07. SOS

08. Only Girl (In The World)

1. Umbrella

2. We Found Love

3. Diamonds

4. Only Girl (In The World)

5. SOS

6. Work

7. Pon de Replay

8. Russian Roulette

1 Work

2 Russian Roulette

3 Umbrella

4 SOS

5 Pon De Replay

6 Only Girl (In the World)

7 We Found Love

8 Diamonds

 

I absolutely LOVE all of these but I do find the ones at the bottom a little overplayed which has ruined them a bit for me. Work is one of my favourite songs by any artist this decade though, it still sounds so fresh every time I hear it :wub:

1. We Found Love

2. Only Girl (In the World)

3. Umbrella

4. Diamonds

5. Work

6. SOS

7. Russian Roulette

8. Pon De Replay

 

So difficult to order everything from 2-6, all incredible songs!

1. Only Girl (In The World)

2. Diamonds

3. Umbrella (feat. Jay-Z)

4. SOS

5. Pon De Replay

6. We Found Love (feat. Calvin Harris)

7. Work (feat. Drake)

8. Russian Roulette

For me at this moment it would go:

 

1. Umbrella

2. Russian Roulette

3. Only Girl (In the World)

4. SOS

5. Pon De Replay

6. We Found Love

7. Work

8. Diamonds

 

I do really like all the Rihanna leads but I would say I listen to Work and Diamonds the least.

 

Russian Roulette is stunning and was so close to coming first but Umbrella is up their with her very best imo.

1 Only Girl (In The World)

2 Diamonds

3 Umbrella

4 Russian Roulette

5 We Found Love

6 Pon De Replay

7 SOS

8 Work

1.Umbrella

2 Diamonds

3 Only Girl (In The World)

4 Russian Roulette

5 We Found Love

6. SOS

7. Pon De Replay

8 Work

 

 

 

5 and 6 are sort of neck and neck tbh.

 

But everything else is like firmly at their position.

 

Umbrella I Stan. Always been my favourite Rihanna single in general :heart:

 

Pon De Replay and Work I rang amongst my least favourites. With Work I still can’t bare it. I remember the dreadful first reactions to it and then it become huge and people started to love it... just not for me.

 

But all those leads are pretty impressionable and 1-6 are all pretty much classics.

1. We Found Love

2. Russian Roulette (this is very underrated I feel <3 )

3. Pon De Replay

4. Diamonds (would be 2nd or 3rd but have gone off a little over the years as the chorus irritates at times, still fine otherwise though)

5. Umbrella

6. SOS

7. Only Girl (In The World)

8. Work

1. Umbrella

2. Russian Roulette (so underrated!)

3. We Found Love

4. Only Girl (In the World)

5. SOS

6. Pon De Replay

7. Diamonds

8. Work

 

All good except that bottom two, which I hate with a passion.

1. Umbrella

2. Russian Roulette

3. We Found Love

My ratings still the same but I’ve grown to become more appreciative of We Found Love again (it’s still not amongst her best as a stand-alone song despite having my favourite music video of hers) but it’s sounding fresher after not hearing it quite as often for a while.
