Mr Eazi) – Decline 50 Sigrid – Don’t Kill My Vibe All in all I found this year to be very underwhelming and whilst there were some great songs it lacks in comparison to last year :(. Anyway, Demi Lovato has always been a huge favourite of mine and she continues to go from strength to strength. 'Sorry Not Sorry' has become one of my all time faves from her and is such a huge grower, the attitude and production on it is just amazing. I know she and the song aren't everyones cup of tea but I think she is so immensely talented and really is such a star. 'Tell Me You Love Me' just outside of the Top 10 is amazing as well, where she really belts it out like she knows how to. She also served an absolute BOP in 'Instruction' which has become a dancefloor staple for me on a night out. 'Run Up' by Major Lazer was a huge favourite throughout the year of mine and was so torn whether it should be that or 'Sorry Not Sorry' as my #01. Such a fun, chilled out song and something different to what is out there. Nicki's verse is absolute FIRE and it is the huge hit that never was of this year. Hailee Steinfeld has continued to worm her way into my affections, I loved her from the moment I heard 'Love Myself' but 'Most Girls' and especially 'Let Me Go' solidified that love, both pop bangers full of hooks and she has a distinct emotion to her voice that I can't really explain. I really hope we do get an album and she gets a hit as big as 'Starving' again because I truly believe she is a star. Comebacks from Katy Perry, Rita Ora, Kesha and even Fifth Harmony have been my fave comebacks of the year. I really believe every single Katy has released this year has been a 10/10 BOP and she has been paid mostly dust which is such a shame. Bon Appetit never should've flopped! Rita really surprised me as I was never hugely keen on her and I find her personality jarring at times but there is no denying that the two singles she has released, especially 'Anywhere' have been amazing. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want Kesha to release an album of 'Take It Off' / 'We R Who We R' type bops but instead we got a much more personal and emotive album which I completely understand. Although I love the lead, 'Praying', it's 'Learn To Let Go' which has stuck with me more and has a hugely melancholic feel to it that really resonates with me. I'm so glad it's gone well for her for this era because it's all she deserves. Newer stars in Camila Cabello, Bebe Rexha, Cardi B, Mabel and Stefflon Don have been my fave new stars of this year. Or new solo artist in the case of Camila, who has proved her stardom - every performance I've seen of hers has been out of this world and I'm so excited to see where she goes next. 'Crying In The Club' and 'Havana' are such excellently made pop songs. Bebe has been paid dust yet again but she has released some of the best pop music this year imo, so annoying that her worst song ever in 'Meant To Be' looks set to become her biggest hit yet. I sincerely hope she doesn't take that route. I could comment in great detail about all of 2017 but it's 1am and I have work tomorrow :'). I hope you enjoy and please comment!

December 4, 20177 yr Nice to see Instruction and You Don't Know Me so high! Personally I'd have them the other way round but both are still great! I'm still disappointed Best Behaviour didn't go Top 40, I hope this album still happens :(
December 4, 20177 yr A brilliant list here, Jack!! Chuffed to see Demi here at #1, she won't quite be that high for me but I was just shocked at how much of a jam that is. She's always been quite hit and miss for me in the past (I've only really LOVED "Heart Attack" and "Give Your Heart a Break" from her previous singles) but it was hard to deny how catchy this was and it just refused to get old for me :wub: Some other fab pop songs in the top 10, "New Rules", "Anywhere" and "Best Behaviour" to name a few. I'm still a bit gutted the latter never seemed to take off because it was so much better than "So Good" in my opinion but it just didn't seem to be clicking with the general public. I do hope she gets a shot at releasing an album because she has a great voice and it's so frustrating to see Syco wasting all these big potential stars :cry: :cheer:
December 4, 20177 yr Flawless top 10 apart from me not being tht keen on Run Up, all such amazing pop :wub I'm glad someone else prefers CITC to havana, I adore both also but CITC is such a tune, I agree they are both amazing pop songs though and I think Camila is possibly my most hyped artist for 2018.
