luci: luci's decade in pop

luci 07.16.19	will expand to top 50 later (* for new additions)
robertsona 07.16.19	a fire list. funny that "realiti" and "everything is embarrassing" are both way better in their video renditions. I mean at least "realiti" is like different and not so bad on the album, they just made "everything is embarrassing" shitty on Ghost though
Sinternet 07.16.19	all of these are top notch
Relinquished 07.16.19	some good picks that'd be on mine
NorthernSkylark 07.16.19	I'm not in love! God I love that chorus.
mynameischan 07.16.19	good list and especially like that #16 is here
luci 07.16.19	i've only ever jammed the video for "everything is embarrassing"... checking the ghost version rn and the background vocals suck
robertsona 07.16.19	they made it so that the higher harmony dominates in the chorus which makes it less melancholic and introspective and more SHITTY!!!
luci 07.16.19	"we can't stop" is so thematically aligned with after laughter. love a partying while depressed vibe
mynameischan 07.16.19	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mjvfnUAfyo my favorite version of "we can't stop"
DoofDoof 07.16.19	This really tempts me to do a top 40 in pop of the decade list - watch this space Latch would make my selection too
luci 07.16.19	I saw your 4/5 rating for my #1... atleast there's something in my top ten you don't loathe!
DoofDoof 07.16.19	I wouldn’t say I loathe Kelela, Lorde or Sophie ;)
Uzumaki 07.16.19	Very refreshing list.
luci 07.16.19	"gee" might be the most furiously catchy song of all time. every single line is a hook
Uzumaki 07.16.19	I remember when that song hit the Oricon. It. Was. EVERYWHERE.
Conmaniac 07.17.19	luci vying for sowing's attention seems off tho
Gyromania 07.17.19	bump
Gyromania 07.17.19	interesting picks. we'll feature many of the same artists but i'll have different song choices for most of them... maybe not sophie. idk, "is it cold" is pretty untouchable imo but it isn't upbeat pop like immaterial, which is undoubtedly a 5/5 track. definitely agreed that realiti demo was better than the studio version. kind of a disappointment for me upon reflection. also i forgot how fucking good climax is
Gyromania 07.17.19	also cold war is the right choice from janelle. song is untouchable. overall a pretty great list
luci 07.17.19	these aren't my favs on the respective records (many songs I favor over "high horse" obv)
luci 07.17.19	carly has a bunch of 5/5 songs, might give the edge to "first time" as my overall fav. had to go with "run away with me" here though, that chorus is world-conquering
Gyromania 07.17.19	yeah i know, you were going for the poppier stuff (worth mentioning though that climax is more a depressive song than an upbeat one, albeit still catchy as hell)
Sowing 07.17.19	great list but where's hatchie
Gyromania 07.17.19	sowing blind =/
luci 07.17.19	in the 5th spot ("stay with me" would be top 15)
Sowing 07.17.19	OK SO I DIDN'T KNOW SHE HAD AN EP oops
Archelirion 07.17.19	Cold War, Run Away With Me, Leave a Trace and Rose Colored Boy [heart emoji] are all killer picks for sure Haven't heard Dancing On My Own for yeeeeears now but I was kinda amazed that her Honey was as good as it was, something like 8 years on from her last stuff. Fuckin outstanding pop. Also cheers for putting 40 as it reminded me of M.I.A. - Bad Girls and I've just spent the last four minutes grooving in my kitchen to that
Sowing 07.17.19	accept this feature as an apology
Gyromania 07.17.19	gift from the gods!
luci 07.17.19	thx for the feature < 3 @Arch: Honey is one of my fav albums of the decade (love the title track even more than "Dancing On My Own"). It's not quite a pop record as she forgoes rise and fall and huge choruses in favor of atmospheres of feeling. She channels the appeal of ambient house and other minimal dance genres so well on that one, masterpiece.
Slex 07.17.19	Some damn great picks, really happy to see 4 so high
luci 07.17.19	gotta say grimes' "flesh without blood" would also make the top 10 ("genesis", "california," "butterfly" also top-tier pop)
DamnVanne 07.17.19	Pretty damn good list. If it was mine I would strike Miley and Icona Pop (cuz gross) and add JT’s Mirrors and Bruno’s Treasure. Then you got yourself a perfect list
alamo 07.17.19	your pop lists are always on point
neekafat 07.17.19	Some awesome picks, esp 35
Chambered79 07.18.19	11 is gr8
luci 07.18.19	please check 28 chambered/everyone. an effortless j-pop beauty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2quiyHfJQw
Trundle 07.18.19	21 is my jam
virpi 07.18.19	"bad girls" is such a banger.
Wildhoney 07.18.19	No Charli or Marina makes me sad but awesome list anyway
luci 07.18.19	charli's "track 10" will make my song of the decade list but it's too art pop for this one marina's hollywood is a banger, that's the only song i'd consider by her. dislike her vocals
alamo 07.18.19	didnt think it was humanly possible to dislike marina's vocals
Yotimi 07.20.19	1 is prob my 1 too.
Pangea 07.20.19	Great picks
Valzentia 07.20.19	"didnt think it was humanly possible to dislike marina's vocals" well here we are
BlushfulHippocrene 07.21.19	Was expecting 212 because I'm basic, but Anna Wintour is just as good and I should really check more Azealia.
luci 07.21.19	azealia put out three classic singles so far: 212, 1991 and anna wintour. chose the last cause it's the poppiest
rellik009 12.08.19	Ouch some of the picks on here are horrible, but most of them are excellent. Can't wait to see your more underground pop list. Will it include genres like hypnagogic pop(so guys like t e l e pa t h)?
Ryus 12.08.19	i really, really despise 33 honestly
rellik009 12.08.19	Holy shit just remembered they had Rihanna in this "What is a good model?", and it was horribly grating.
theBoneyKing 12.08.19	Glad you chose the right Chvrches song 4 is probably pop SOTD for me
luci 12.08.19	expanded to 50 now that the decade is over, added an asterisk for the ten new additions
Ryus 12.08.19	i love 38 so much
Tyler. 12.08.19	21 tbh
luci 12.08.19	fav pop song of the 00s: kylie minogue - love at first sight fav pop song of the 90s: bjork - hyper-ballad fav pop song of the 80s: madonna - into the groove maybe i'll do lists for those decades sometime!
Ryus 12.08.19	into the groove is 80s big man but thats an amazing song agreed prob my second fav madonna after borderline
luci 12.08.19	oops. guess i'll go with hyper-ballad for 90s my second fave madonna is ray of light
rabidfish 12.08.19	ah man, i love that mondo grosso song.
RolyPoly 12.08.19	Die young is a 6/5 song
