#16 CLEAN BANDIT f/ JESS GLYNNE - Rather Be STATS: Weeks: 13 | Peak: 03
Winner of Favorite Upbeat/ Club track of 2014 is also the highest song that never reached #1 on my personal countdown! “Rather Be” which lands at #16 is the type of song that I immediately appreciate at first listen. I’m very glad for them as this one of the most popular songs in the UK last year! I wish it could have peaked higher in the US though!
LAST YEAR: ONE DIRECTION – Best Song Ever
#15 ARIANA GRANDE f/ IGGY AZALEA - Problem STATS: Weeks: 09 | Peak: 01 (1)
The sassy collaboration of Ariana Grande ad Iggy Azalea makes to the #15 spot! After watching her very first performance of the song, I already know that this will be her first huge hit and it did! She might still be awkward with some of her movements, but I think that’s her charm!
LAST YEAR: IMAGINE DRAGONS - Radioactive
#14 JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE - Not A Bad Thing STATS: Weeks: 11 | Peak: 01 (1)
Justin Timberlake’s airplay fueled hit finishes at #14! “Not A Bad Thing” is a very sweet ballad, not to mention, this track also won as my favorite ballad/ mid-tempo song of 2014! Definitely my favorite track from his latest album. Moreover, I think we all agree that this deserved a better music video!
