Posted November 17, 2024Nov 17 A thread to collate the "End of 2024" lists and see if/where our girls place in each list. I'll start off with The Independent ranking JADE at #7! 7. ‘Angel of my Dreams’ – Jade Few debut acts have leapt out of the gate quite as brilliantly as Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall, a true student of pop music who’s quickly proven to be ready and eager to take bold sonic swings. “Angel of My Dreams”, which launched her solo career in July, brings to mind vintage Girls Aloud in its three-songs-in-one pile-up, pivoting from a scarily distorted Sandie Shaw sample to lush balladry and anarchic electroclash. Thirlwall’s vocals are sometimes sped up, sometimes slowed to a crawl, often bludgeoned into anarchic, dancefloor-splattering mash. Pop star? Think of her more as a scientist. Adam White Source

December 4, 2024Dec 4 It really goes to show the value in taking risks with a debut single! :wub: what other big publications are we waiting on? Billboard, Guardian… :unsure:
December 4, 2024Dec 4 It’s the 6th best rated song based off of all of the End of year charts currently apparently :o Edited December 4, 2024Dec 4 by Dynasty.

December 4, 2024Dec 4 It’s probably more an indication of how critically acclaimed the song has been rather than it *actually* being the 6th highest rated since i’m not sure how reliable it is but still incredible!! @1864112791432646894 Edited December 4, 2024Dec 4 by Dynasty.
