activebeast ∙ Tayriffic Beats 2010 ∙ The Top 100 (#44-50)
"Naturally"
Selena Gomez & the Scene Best Part:"You follow what you feel inside. It's intuitive, you don't have to try."
Disney popstar Selena Gomez appears on the list for the last time with an electropop single off her debut album. Wasn't hooked into this song at first but it grew on me a lot after a couple of spins. The music video is also commendable.
"U Smile"
Justin Bieber Best Part:"Cause my cards are on the table. And I'm willing and I'm able."
Bieber appears on the list for the second time and yes, there's still more to come. I was annoyed when I first heard this song on TV but when the music video was released, I started appreciating it. Prolly's JB's next decent hit after OLLG.
"Who's That Chick?"
David Guetta f/ Rihanna Best Part:"Feel the adrenaline moving under my skin. It's an addiction such an eruption."
Riri is back and made me love her again after the disappointing Rated R era. Riri's sultry voice suited the uptempo electro beat David Guetta made for the song. It's very catchy and I love how Riri plays with words. Love the two videos.
"Nothin' On You"
B.o.B f/ Bruno Mars Best Part:The chorus
Thanks to this song for introducing B.o.B and Bruno into the mainstream. I believe that B.o.B is one of the outstanding rappers while Bruno is one of the promising R&B sensations of the new decade. Their voices blend perfectly and flawlessly.
"Break Your Heart"
Taio Cruz f/ Ludacris Best Part:"If you fall for me, I'm not easy to please."
This song was a huge success in UK and US before it caught my attention. Love the electropop vibe of this song. It's very catchy and groovy. Ludacris also did a good job in providing rap verses and second voices. Bring it on, Taio!
"Today Was A Fairytale"
Taylor Swift Best Part:"I can feel my heart, it's beating in my chest."
Hail the queen! And yes, this is the only song without a music video to crack into the Top 50. I admit, it wasn't as brilliant compared to her other songs but I learned to love it after a few months. It will take a while until Taylor appears again.
"Got Your Back"
T.I. f/ Keri Hilson Best Part:The chorus and the bridge
I can't help but sing along whenever I hear this song. It's sounds amazing, groovy and lovely. The rap verses don't sound annoying and just go well perfectly. Keri did an excellent job in giving us a good chorus and lovely second voices.
