I do love the original but yeah, that Boman remix gives off pure Bangalter/Falcon vibes

finally finished listening to the results recently, and... great job ilm, for real. i'm not sure why, but i enjoyed nearly all the placing tracks that i hadn't previously heard, certainly not a typical response for me to any poll. idk, maybe having listened to much less music than usual this past year, and not being too enthused abt most of the mainstream stuff that crossed my awareness w/ no effort on my end, has made me more enthusiastic to belatedly enjoy some things. thank y'all for continuing to have great taste even when the conversations aren't quite as busy + dunderheads like me can't bother to figure out which threads to keep even minimally plugged into throughout the year
my ballot only had like 20 songs on it and was frankly rather reflective of my very limited horizons this year, but a few of the songs i voted for placed and i was happy to see them. i don't think it's worth posting my ballot in the other thread but i was the #1 vote for "provenza" (the only track in the weighted section of my ballot) + i was glad to hear what y'all thought abt it, even imago's distaste for it. rly cool to see "calm down" so high, i thought i didn't know it until i clicked play and realized oh yeah it's that quite-lovely afrobeats song i've heard every now and again w/ or w/o selena gomez (lol). "last last" i also knew but didn't recall until hitting play -- frankly the toni braxton sample turned me off it for a while due to my increasing annoyance w/ ~2/3 of all radio hits in america now being reliant on samples of highly recognizable old hits, but i came to like it just fine. tho i certainly don't dislike afrobeats, i tend not to be as enthusiastic abt it as its fans on here anyhow
fav discoveries were real lies ("dream on" especially but both of the placing ones -- just getting into the album too now!) and "step by step" lol
thanks to the pollrunners and the voters for introducing me to a lot of good stuff :)
