Posted December 14, 200717 yr Not really worth a topic, but i wasn't sure where else i could put this in here :unsure: Anyway, Rihanna featured in NME's top 50 tracks of 2007 at Number 5 :D Top 10 1. Klaxons - Golden Skans 2. Glasvegas - Daddy's Gone 3. The Cribs - Men's Needs 4. The Teenagers - Homecoming 5. Rihanna - Umbrella 6. The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name 7. Arctic Monkeys - Brianstorm 8. Foals - Mathletics 9. Arcade Fire - Intervention 10. LCD Soundsystem - North American Scum. NME's mini summary of Umbrella "From the moment you heard it you knew you were going to hear it every-bloody-where from BoomBox to Budgens, forever, and that, one way or another, you had just better get used to that fact. And quickly. After 10 weeks at Number 1, by late July there were whispers that Bryan Adams might even be toppled from his eternal plinth. Yes, there was also the irony of its title given our Atlantis-like summer, but really, we should all feel blessed to have lived through any season with pop songs as timeless as this. The most flawless slice of chilly R&B since Aaliyah's "Try Again", it matched vintage songwriting to some hyper-modern knob-twiddling by producers The Dream for a minimal, sharp-edged but curiously affecting sound that seemed perfectly twinned with the shimmering rain of sparks that ends its video. Hella-ella-ella-ella good" Source - NME Magazine.
