ok I'm so into it! this recognizable bassline tho :wub:

so he's trying to wear a mask of mystery, also he uses Russian nickname (Cauchemar means 'nightmare') ok, what else do you need to be the epitome of mysteriousness in 2017 with astonishing track...well, yeah, you need to shoot the randomest video for it. well done Vladimir, you've almost nailed it; just don't let rappers touch your track in the next couple of years in order to make it an official 'chart-worthy' single.

+5 Wham! - Last Christmas +4 Clean Bandit - I Miss You (feat. Julia Michaels) +3 Ed Sheeran & Beyoncé - Perfect +2 Camila Cabello - Havana (feat. Young Thug) +1 Marshmello - Silence (feat. Khalid) --- -1 Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You -2 Rita Ora - Anywhere -3 Rak-Su - Dimelo (feat. Naughty Boy & Wyclef Jean) -4 The Pogues - Fairytale Of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl) (soz guys) -5 Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot (not soz)

Best Friend came out like a bursting bomb for me! like outta nowhere (I didn't like it at first couple o' listens) straight to the top of my personal chart. What did they add to the track that made it kinda special? Also didn't realise that there's really more than 1 female vocal before I watched the video.

Well, one of the numerous demo versions contains the drop just like you described it, wish I could find it and share with you.

+5 Ed Sheeran & Beyoncé - Perfect (well, I'm dishonorably hooked by still-working Sheeran's formula that gives many BJers tons of butthurt) +4 Wham! - Last Christmas +3 Camila Cabello - Havana (feat. Young Thug) +2 Clean Bandit - I Miss You (feat. Julia Michaels) (started growing on me recently) +1 Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You -1 Marshmello - Silence (feat. Khalid) -2 Rak-Su - Dimelo (feat. Naughty Boy & Wyclef Jean) (still don't know how to estimate it) -3 Rita Ora - Anywhere (idk why I ended up tired of the song very quickly) -4 The Pogues - Fairytale Of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl) (never been on board with this one) ...the whole eternity... -5 Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot

THIS Idk why is this a thing to add some break beats to the drop when it pleads to be progressive... I guess they're trying so hard to create 'their own' recognizable sound but they seem to turn off the right track. Can't wait for the remix pack OR they to release the demo version OR Angemi to save us with awesome version, whatever.

MNEK) -5 Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot

oh come on guys, I'm running out of popcorn, like 3rd bucket in a row. What's really wrong with an artist that wants to get some more attention even though he already got freakin tons of? although yep, being overplayed doesn't put him in any of your favors; but, as long as I remember, it all began with simple question: will 2 'Perfect' versions be separated or not? don't have real/confirmed information - why treading water? --- why the heck MK is still that high without price reducing? what am I missing? also glad to see Beautiful Trauma that high, hope to see it even higher.

can't stop listening since I've heard it first time on R1, I guess, it was 2 months ago :wub:

what do y'all find in here? :unsure: some moments are just painful

I have a strong feeling I missed something in this track. The strong lack of something really important haunts me.

hyped! another fun fact - the artwork contains "2" made up with blue pills. What should we guess?

Looking at the nominations it feels like dance music is dead in US. Anyway, ODESZA became really big there, so they should grab the album of the year; also impossible not to admit Gorillaz's album that won't obviously just pass by (given the popularity thanks to the name), I think Andromeda is to get the statue.

+5 Ed Sheeran - Perfect +4 Sam Smith - Too Good At Goodbyes +3 Post Malone - rockstar (feat. 21 Savage) +2 Camila Cabello - Havana (ft.

+5 Perfect +4 Havana +3 Anywhere +2 Too Good At Goodbyes +1 Silence --- -1 Dusk Till Dawn -2 Rockstar -3 Walk On Water -4 Man’s Not Hot -5 Finders Keepers Only 2 songs I really dislike! What a result!

well, don't wanna create another topic about the track that's about to flop or maybe already did it, but... I really like that cheesy future production completed with the nice video. I know this man ain't gonna trouble the chart any time soon, that's why I should probably just leave it there k-nA-Vd9Z0M

Mixed feelings about this one. The formula is observed precisely, and I should like it...but I don't. :| It doesn't sound like an 'in-your-face', instant hit for me, despite it has all the prerequisites to be a hit.

well, time will tell for Clean Julia (lol who came up with this? i like it btw), you know, there IS something attractive in 'I Miss You' but it needs to be found thoroughly and painfully. I guess CB placed a bet on Julia's vocals, it's like *almost* neverending line which is fine because there's nothing really catchy musically at the moment. Slay Rita! :cheer:

well, I thought this one will melt my ice for sure after a couple of listens... still waiting for that moment. someone whispers into my ear that it won't happen.

then it should sound like hey mama apparently but futurebass-inspired. anyway I'm open to hear something new from such a massive bunch of artists. shame that these groups of artists like this usually come out with kinda weird stuff for our ears to enjoy.
