ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 2014

glad this placed higher than the other 2 Nicki tracks so far, it's so so so much better than those imo

the J.Lo album was really surprisingly, illogically good, "I Luh Ya Papi" is probably my least favorite song on it tbh

the J-Lo song is OK to good; I like it better now. I've only liked three or four of her singles.

PTAF did the original song and nicki keeps their hook so they deserve the "ft" imo

poll feels a lot less predictable than last years despite repetition (which there'll always be to an extent, esp when you consider nicki's approach to releasing material - two of her three trax so far are not on her album)

I've only liked three or four of her singles.

same here, which is why me enjoying an entire album of hers was so surprising!

thanks lex, that was my best guess but i wasn't 100%

I'm guessing this is probably the last we'll see of Nicki or AM.

At least until the albums poll.

one of those times i wish Nicki acted more like Drake -- she could've kept a PTAF verse on there, signed them and sent the song to radio. would sure rather hear that than Makonnen.

why are we all giving our hot takes on every song

Because who needs a blog when you've got ILM?

ha everyone shd do this imo really enjoyed sleeve being all "bad stopped listening 15 seconds in" about every track

I also prefer "Transgender...." to "Fuckmylife666" but the album is such a complete experience it's hard to pick moments.

bad hot takes, stopped reading 5 characters in

60 MARK RONSON "Uptown Funk" Ft Bruno Mars [252 points, 7 votes] - ive had a more negative reaction to this song than any i can remember in a long time, heavy heavy gross thirsty karaoke vibes, feel fortunate to be in a place in my life right now where im not exposed to the radio too much, mark ronson and bruno mars can both be consumed by the mighty flames of my antipathy afaic

uptown funk don't give it to ya?

that's one very hot take rite there

actually, its not a hot take

jho lives uptown

i wld like to also say uptown funk more like poopootown yuck

that ice cold

a not take if you will

ronson song is the only one that's driven me to the complaints metathread so far, so fair play to jho's cold takedown, think it might be a song where the onus is on the defence ;)

song is truly the defintion of faking the funk folks

why do you hate Michelle Pfeiffer

I find Uptown Funk quite enjoyable, but I also praise it for saving me from further overplay of Locked Out of Heaven (which I never need to hear again ever).

locked out of heaven >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> uptown funk

nominated this didnt vote for it lol

YES!

this is my jam

Haim! I remember them!

These guys are still going, huh?

i think this is residue from 2013.

otm

Does that mean all of Haim's singles placed in these polls now?

a new song or are their fans just voting for anything that's vaguely eligible?

didn't place last year, released as a single in feb 14 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

X|

It was the best song from the 2013 album that became its own single in 2014. That sounds like a qualifier, so let me clarify. It was the best song from the album.

i think this is residue from 2013.

― quinoa: how's it spelt? (dog latin)

One of my highest scoring songs this year but I didn't want to P&J it.

indie bands its always kind of weird to see their songs in singles polls cause they still seem just like a song off an album

this is not a singles poll!!

Tracks

Albums

Bands

indie bands

anyway, i can't remember for the life of me how this one goes because days are gone feels like 100 years ago

whatever

indie bands its always kind of weird to see their songs in singles polls cause they still seem just like a song off an album

they represent the ethos of contemporary indie like maybe better than anyone
