2017 Year End Countdown!!!!


The Killers

This is the EIGHTH freaking Year End Countdown I've done on here and it's exciting and fun every single year. I love looking back at the songs that were huge in a given year and I also love seeing what songs statistically make the Top Ten, but had sort of faded from memory. Both of those kinds of songs are in this episode. So enjoy and Happy New Year!

***Featuring***
Cold War Kids
Green Day
Imagine Dragons
The Killers
Portugal. The Man
Queens of the Stone Age

We're into the 60's! That means it's time for some wild, out there, crazy....lovely instrumental themes. :)

This song really is very beautiful.

Top Ten Tuesday: Migos, Nicki Minaj, and Cardi B "MotorSport"

This video feels weirdly old school AND very new. It feels like what a "hot new video" would have looked like in 2002, but the style is very "current state of pop-rap, for the most part"

Top Ten Tuesday: Mariah Carey "All I Want For Christmas is You"

It's a historic day on the charts! For the first time, Mariah Carey's classic Christmas song has finally made it into the Top Ten. It was released on 11/1/1994. Insane. More than 23 years after its release, it finally makes it! And we're here to see it.
