Out of all the songs on the album, this one stood out the most to me. It's a definite banger and seems to be one of the most dance oriented tracks in his whole dicography. It seems to be a very squeaky house and four-on-the-floor track.
Speaking of bangers, here we have another one by Norwegian Annie who releases very sporadically. This is very 90s house and very retro, which matches the concept of the EP. This is the mosr up tempo song on the EP too and works as a good closer. She's definitely one the most exciting pop artists and I hope she releases another full length in this direction soon rather than later.
WorkX2 is not the best on the EP, but still such a bop and a great workout song. And yeah, I NEED another album from her, preferably one better than Don't Stop (?)
Hurricane you say? I only heard it like the week before I made the lists I had no idea she released one.

She releases so infrequently it's so sad, I need a full album full of songs from A&R and Endless Vacation.
This was an extremely late addition but it's so worth it. After A Monotone and whatever Unexcitingggggg was (bar Sayonara), Ayu comes out with a complete BANGER I've been wanting from her for a very very long time. This Globe cover is actually one of her best songs this whole decade (which seems to be a trend for her, covers better than 85% of her studio output). If she goes in this direction for her next studio album which will releases next year knowing her, watch out for it on my AOTY list
This has been a very disappointing year for Perfume. Relax In The City was cute but no replay value and Star Train was.....released. Fortunately though, Relax In The City has this bop as its B-Side. I just love the way it builds up and it sounds like something that came from Nakata's 2007-09 prime. The lyrics are cute n relatable too.
Namie's ex back-up dances MAX always come through with bops, this being the best one from this year. This very Latin inspired dance track seems to throw back to the early days of MAX and even some of Namie Amuro & The Super Monkeys tracks that I love. It's just a fun bop and I love it.
I've already spoke about how much I loved BEG's comeback, but I only mentioned this song in passing. This disco bop was definitely made for gays, which is evident by Miryo's hey girl heyyy through out the whole thing. Their English surprisingly is on point for the mot part and Miryo's rap for me is the highlight of the song, it just elevates it to a whole new level.
Before anyone who knows my well enough asks, yes this song is only this high because of a certain featuring from an artist (the song would have made the list regardless, but much much lower). LE really takes this song to a much more emotional level with her verse (and it's probably my favourite rap verse possibly ever now?). Verbal Jint's production is phenomal as always too, he's my favourite Khip-Hop artist for a reason.
The opening track of Odd really sets the mood for the album. This slick little R&B number also features some type of swooping synths, which add to the “odd” theme of the album. I'm also going to hopefully be seeing them live whilst I'm in Tokyo too so they best perform this.
I didn't really care that much for this album, but this song is a definite standout. I just love how Lykke Li's vocals sound (tbh I don't really hear Romy in this at all) and the instrumental is also wonderful and really standsout in a somewhat boring album.
But twenty three >> 23
