Commentary

 

A Spanish language song by a French producer, not something you often see. This became the only song to DNQ for me in BJSC in an otherwise great year, and coincidentally it is also the lowest of seven entries of ours in the Hot 100 (we sent ten but three of those were older tracks). After liking 'Waiting For The Stars' I was intrigued to see this appear in my release radar and it instantly outshone it. Upon further research it turns out this is a vocal reworking of an album track of his and fair to say it certainly works a lot better with the La Bien Querida vocal (she herself is Spanish), her sweet vocal tones and Vitalic's disco vibes in the production do more than enough to overcome the language barrier.

This became one of the biggest 'Spotify hits' of the year, coming out of seemingly nowhere to smash. It's a brilliant song though, very uplifting and the Ryan Riback tropical house production gives it that extra edge. It's generic in just the right number of places for it to be a steady chart hit throughout the first half of the year, but sadly the formula got dry and subsequent releases from both of them haven't done much for me.

Impacting in time for the start of the year were house act NVOY whose 'Make You Mine' stood out for its excellent high tempo house production that we sadly don't see much of in the charts but fortunately music still exists outside of what's currently 'in'. Very groovy and something I'd like to hear more of, the other songs of theirs I've heard don't do it for me though so for now they're a one-hit wonder.

Commentary

 

Just outside the top 50 here is another of the year's sleeper hits, and indeed it is the highest single here to peak outside the top 30 (still a few non-top 20 hits to come). It's like nothing else in the charts and clearly takes a lot of influence from the 70s/80s but in a very fresh way. Not at all what I expected from Childish Gambino either with the entire song being sung, but with the funky vibes and brilliant instrumental (that outro particularly) it ended up doing very well for itself here, particularly after the meme gave it a second life. Not surprising that this was very critically acclaimed because this isn't really my type of music but I love it. Not enough to seek out the rest of the album though, I don't imagine anything else of his will come close to this.

Excellent to see “Redbone” chart here, definitely one of my favourites songs of the past year or so - although it charted more in 2016 for me so unfortunately misses out on my chart of the year (after making it in 2016). The use of it at the end of Get Out worked really well too.

 

Not many others I know here although from what I've heard I also enjoyed/charted: “New Rules”, “Do It Like Me (Icy Feet)”, “Chameleon”, “F*ck They”, “Trouble”, “Cola”, “Never Ever”, “17” and of course “Everything Now”!

Baby by Bakermat is brilliant! Definite early/mid 00s vibes when this kind of funky house was more popular. It also helps that I like the more well known 1986 Communards ft Sarah Jane Morris version (I know you said before you don't consider it dance but I would albeit cheesy dance ;) ).

 

Anyway Baby definitely is my fave so far in your countdown!

 

But Won't Stop by Watermat and Kelli Leigh still to come in your countdown :cheer:

Edited by The Snake

Tu Conmigo was one of my favourite of your BJSC entries this year, a real grower for me.

 

Call On Me was the opposite though, hit me instantly but I'm a little tired now after hearing it for weeks on the chart show :(

Kiesza *.* still a total queen, sad her flashy technicolor jacket in the Dearly Beloved vid never became a fashion trend

 

yay for Kendrick, Sofi Tukker, Camila, Arcade Fire (and the Drones Club appearance way back) etc.!

If you want to believe that then yes, Trifoski ha impakt.

Dearly Beloved wasn't all that good for me sadly.

Didn't listen to it until its commercial push in 2017 myself. Funny enough I watched Get Out last night which was quite good.

I'm quite familiar with the Communards version, Bakermat's is much more dancey for me though.

Won't Stop will feature quite highly so stay tuned.

Good to see there were some fans of Tu Conmigo, so I can't regret sending it too much.

They did seem to play it on the chart show at any given opportunity but I didn't mind. :lol:

Commentary

 

The second of three Martin Solveig appearances now and the first that wasn't here last year. 'All Stars' is his latest single which sadly got overlooked in the charts, not receiving much of a push with no Radio 1 playlisting annoyingly. Yes it was released way back in June and he still hasn't followed it up, damn his inconsistent release schedule! Like 'Places' this got off to a slow start but eventually reached a reasonable peak of #27 and had great longevity. It's another song of his with his newfound future house slash pop formula which he is at the top of his game with, so it's a shame he's not getting consistent chart success with it. It's also another song with the vocal talents of ALMA who I hope to see more of in 2018 despite the major letdown of 'Phases'. More on her later though as 'Chasing Highs' will be chasing a high position in the chart.

Commentary

 

DJ Khaled brought out the big names this year with Bieber and Rihanna collaborations, both of which make the year-end Hot 50. In an unsurprisingly quiet year for Rihanna, with her messy ANTI campaign having long finished and her current release schedule not being quite as hectic as it was at the start of the decade, it is her only appearance in the Hot 100. To date, 2014 is the only year which she had no appearances. The song itself made great use of a Santana sample which was no doubt inspired by the recent comeback of Latin music but it is still very much a hip-hop song. Riri is the highlight of the song as you would expect but DJ Khaled's iconic shouting and Bryson's guest verse are both good additions too. When it comes to songs about sex, no one does it consistently well as Queen Rihanna herself. Now hopefully we get some more of her in 2018, we've waited long enough already.

Commentary

 

The second BJSC entry of mine to make an appearance comes from Leon Else, whose 'The City Don't Care' stood out to me when browsing through a Spotify New Music Friday playlist. With its retro synth pop vibes provided by production duo Oliver this quickly grew on me and I ended up sending it just as something a bit different to the standard entry of mine... only to be overshadowed the next contest by his follow-up. -_- The lyrics which tell of him failing to make it in L.A. as the city simply 'don't care' are very well done, it's interesting subject matter.

Commentary

 

Originally released as a garage track in 2000 which made the UK top ten it got re-released on Armada at the end of 2016 alongside a remix from Deeptrak to bring it bang up to date. And unlike a few remakes this is far from pointless with brilliant house production bringing together elements of piano and organ house, it's not that far from what you'd expect from someone like Duke Dumont. Exactly the type of banger I can get into, shame it seemed to go completely under the radar.

Commentary

 

Unfortunately for Calvin Harris 'My Way' was released just as the year was coming to its end and with ten tracking weeks available it could only make it as high as #62. Calvin had such a good year in 2016 for how little he released, and two out of three making it to #1 in my chart isn't at all bad. This one spent 7 weeks at #1, one more than TIWYCF although I do prefer that a fair bit, this was just lucky to have barely any competition. Such a banger though, Calvin just keeps on giving. I just hope he either gives us an album in 2017 or more frequent singles though, I can't do with just three every year!!!

Well he did give us an album (yass) though he was to drastically change his style after this single. More on that later. Quite unfortunate timing on Calvin's part for releasing the song when he did as it surprisingly misses the year-end top 40 again when it would've been a top 10 contender if the entire chart run was in one tracking year.

Great to see songs like "My Way", "Wild Thoughts", "Redbone", "Tu Conmigo" and especially "New Rules" (my #1 on my Year-End List) on your Year-End list!

Still SO much love for My Way, it never got old and would probably be in my top 5 of his singles now :wub:

 

I'm kinda biased towards songs he sings on, does he do any vocals at all on his album??

Commentary

 

Avicii gave us six tracks on comeback EP but it was really three of them that stood out to me. This was one of them, entering at #2 only behind 'Without You' and would have easily been a #1 if he'd released the tracks one-by-one. It's got everything we love about the new Avicii, right from the acoustic guitar opening to the synth breakdown. It sounds like it would fit very well on the 'Stories' album and I'd say is even better than most of that album. He hasn't lost it at all and I'm very excited for what he'll release this year.

New Rules is of course an anthem, so amazing to see it smash worldwide!! :wub:
It's good to see her breaking the US with it, shows it still can be done for British acts with a great song.

 

Yay at All Stars just scraping the top 50 :cheer: I've said it SO many times but it should have gotten a push ://
Well yeah, I've kinda given up hoping for these types of dance songs to be hits now because it so rarely happens. :(

 

Great to see songs like "My Way", "Wild Thoughts", "Redbone", "Tu Conmigo" and especially "New Rules" (my #1 on my Year-End List) on your Year-End list!

 

Still SO much love for My Way, it never got old and would probably be in my top 5 of his singles now :wub:

 

I'm kinda biased towards songs he sings on, does he do any vocals at all on his album??

Yay for the 'My Way' love, there seem to only be a few big fans of that here.

'Funk Wav Bounces' doesn't have any Calvin vocals, I believe it's the first album of his to not feature his voice on any of the tracks too.

 

thanks guys~
