December 1, 20177 yr Author Hard Times and I Dare You are pretty good. The former I end up dancing to whenever it comes on. Hey Dalek, Glad you like those picks and yes Hard Times is such a fun track :heart: Dammit, I'm very late for this. Either way, great chart Harry. I've seen a lot of people starting their End of Year lists, but I'm still thinking about releasing mine right now, especially when the year isn't over it. If it probably fits, I might start doing my Year-End Lists next week. Anyway, beyond that, can't wait for the rest of your Year-End list! Hi Serg I can't wait to see your EOY!! Glad your enjoying it so far Some brilliant videos in the bottom half of the top 10 :cheer: LWYMMD is my fave of the lot, I love a big budget music video like that so it's always a treat when we get banger to accompany the visuals. Hope Chained to the Rhythm has made the top 5!! Hey Josh! Glad you like my chosen videos so far! I love how big of a budget LWYMMD got :heart: Bops to be expected You Know it Cam! :cool: Look What You Made Me Do has an outstanding music video :wub: Hey Seph, Knew you would agree!
December 1, 20177 yr Author FLYNNONDA'S FRESH FINDS FOR 2018 10. Tayá Info: Liverpool's very own RNB singer Tayá is the first pick at #10. The 18-year-old has signed to the UK Wing of Atlantic records so she could very well be on the cusp of good things. Growing up with a love for Pop-RNB singers such as Ciara and Ashanti, which you can clearly hear in her music. I first heard her song "Deeper" and thinking that was very good and since then I have really liked "When UR Sober" so I hope each release gets better and Better! t1g03tgYbGw 9. Bad Sounds http://www.thefixmagazine.com/index/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/BS-Omeara-1.png Info: Next up at 9 we have Bad Sounds. A Five Band from Bath/Bristol consisting off Ewan, Callum, Olivia, Charlie and Sam. Fun Fact: Ewan and Callum are brothers. They are an indie band but offer a genre binding feel to their music which is exciting. Annie Mac first introduced me to them when their song "Wages" was played and since it has allowed me to follow them and I can't wait to see what the future holds for them. qdFThOciz1g

December 1, 20177 yr Taylor truly stole the crown this year in terms of the music video because 'Look What You Made Me Do' is excellent *.* so action-packed and glossy. The '...Ready For It?' video was glossy alright but not quite action-packed, at least I prefer the song x

December 4, 20177 yr Author Top 10 music videos of 2017 05. Lorde - Green Light dMK_npDG12Q Why?: I just adore the simplicity of this video and how it still manages to give the feels of a breakup. Green Light's lyrics are about a breakup so it makes sense for it to channel the theme of the song in some way. However, it does so in such a beautiful fashion by having Lorde in the video on her own just cruising around a town. The whole thing looks stunning from the city, to the lighting, cinematography and Lorde herself. All mounts up to a great video. http://cdn.playbuzz.com/cdn/676917f0-7d6d-4454-a1fa-4a323ede9ea0/681535d1-85a0-4f9f-8cc6-25e60a4b826b.gif 04. Katy Perry feat. Skip Marley - Chained To The Rythm Um7pMggPnug Why?: I love a video with a message. To equal a video basically dissing Trump it takes a whole utopian/1950's style clothing approach in the video. Seen with multiple messages such as the theme park being called "Oblivia" which is about how their are too many distractions in modern society, Pricking her finger on a rise hinting there is a thorn amongst every rose and nods to the US Housing crisis. Overall great video with a great overall concept and design. Finally, just want to say I adore the scene in the gif I stated below. 03. Kendrick Lamar - HUMBLE. tvTRZJ-4EyI Why?: Again like Katy Perry's video above has a story or a message. He plays many different humble and not so humble people such as a religious figure and a money-obsessed person. He also re-created the famous Leonardo da Vinci’s 15th-century painting, The Last Supper. Playing Jesus, another religious figure after playing Pope Francis. However these scenes a bit much harder to pull apart whereas the scene where the woman is in that photoshop sequence is a lot more literal. Lamar keeps a fair amount of literal meaning and more complex meaning in the video. Add to that great cinematography and visually appealing overall video and that is how you get #3 on my countdown.
December 4, 20177 yr Hi Harry I couldn't get enough of Lorde during the Pure Heroine era but I seem to be the only person on the planet who was a little disappointed in the Melodrama album era. I do think the music was great but Green Light was a bit of a unexciting lead single for me and pretty much nothing happens in the video apart from her dancing... Perfect Places was much more up my street but then it barely got a single push :lol: :drama: YES at recognition for the CTTR video though. It's so rare we get big budget fun pop videos like that nowadays so at least Katy is still bringing it with those. The music may be getting worse but at least she's still willing to spend on the visuals :lol: We won't talk about the Swish Swish video though....
December 4, 20177 yr HUMBLE. is an excellent video, deserves all the awards. CTTR vid is great too, a lot of thought was put into it.
December 4, 20177 yr The Humble video may be my favourite of the year. Really elevated the song for me. :wub:
December 5, 20177 yr Author FLYNNONDA'S FRESH FINDS FOR 2018 08. Tom Grennan http://scan.lusu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/m661rJRh.jpg Info: Tom Grennan was born in Bedfordshire but currently living in London, tom Grennan is a singer-songwriter who first broke onto the scene when appearing on Chase and Status single "All Goes Wrong". 2016/2017 was a good couple of years for Tom with Live Lounge appearances, Jools Holland performances and even a spot on the sound of 2017 list. However, with an album coming out in March 2018 I am putting him on my list as a one to watch for 2018. VDvX1hzGZN4 07. Billie Ellish Info: The youngest person on my list I think, 15-year-old Billie Ellish is an American pop singer-songwriter. She first grabbed the public's attention with her song Ocean Eyes. However, it was her next single 'Bellyache' that caught my eye. With an EP released in the mid part of 2017 which contains 8 songs including Bellyache and Ocean Eyes. Not forgetting she is also on the Sound of 2018 list so she is not only tipped for big things on my list but other places have an eye on her. gBRi6aZJGj4
December 5, 20177 yr Tom Grennan from Bedfordshire :music: I have a few mutual friends of him which is kinda cool haha. All Goes Wrong is still his best tbh and he's yet to match that a solo artist but I have enjoyed all of his singles so far a fair bit, would be nice to see him break through a bit to the mainstream :( (I didn't realise how rather good looking he is until seeing his picture just now either :wub: :heehee:)
December 5, 20177 yr Tom Grennan sounds good. He played at Truck Festival last summer and made it to the Sound Of 2017 list.
