Hard Out Here wasn't the best choice for first single if Lily Allen wanted success, but the song is really great! Love the message, the music video is good, love the Blurred Lines parody 
I'm not a big fan of the song, but I love the music video for "This Is Gospel", really good! In terms of music videos PATD never disappoints.
Treasure, one of my fave songs from Bruno Mars! God, I used to hate him but not anymore, the singles from this album have been amazing.
When I first heard "18 Months" I was so disappointed with Calvin Harris, it's his most generic song to date and for a long time it was my least favorite song from Calvin Harris. When they released the music video I suddenly fell in love with both, song and music video! It's so cute, Calvin & Ellie are like the perfect couple The concept is nice and it's one of the best music videos from "18 Months" era.
Example and Perfect Replacement! One of the few "really good" songs on "The Evolution Of Man". Again It wasn't one of my favorite Example songs but the music video helped the song! It's crazy, love the crazy dance from that guy lol. I think the moral of that music video is: If you dance like retarded you can get a hot girl
Things We Lost In Fire! A song that I discovered way too late and never debuted on my weekly countdown... but I decided to give it a place in my top 100, it's really good, my favorite song from Bastille.
Carried Away is amazing, specially the music video.
Right Here was (or still is) my least favorite single from Rudimental, but the song has been growing on me lately 
The Walker! Another great song! and another guy that dances like crazy lol
La La La! One of the best songs released in 2013 for me! At first I wasn't impressed with the song but it's a grower, those "La La La's" are really catchy + the music video is so original and addictive.
Downtown and XO are not bad.
There Goes Our Love Again! I love that song, the guy's voice is really amazing, I always like their singles.
Great set, top 50 is coming and I can't wait

Late again. I see that the gold bar shrunk into the little corner. In this dance countdown, You will see the dance/electronic songs that I listen to and liked the most. As well as EDM-which is a pop trend that is just watered-down dance/electronic with similar breakdowns. Here’s all the dance/electronic songs to rave and get lost into. Most of the artist here are actually dance/electronic artists/DJs.

Get Lucky was such a jam and is considered to be one of THE summer song of 2013. Will this song be #1 in the top songs countdown? I have to keep that countdown going. Looks like I might have to cut the rest of the genre countdowns I was going to do. The genre countdowns don’t take long to make unlike the top songs sets, which take longer. I got to put more update for the top songs countdown. Time is running out soon.
Coming up is the Top 200 Songs of 2013: Part 4 [125-101] and until then, comment on this countdown.

Nice!
Especially CLARITY  That song is so godly.
Not really into the remix version of Summertime Sadness, but then it wouldn't be on the Dance chart

Top 200 Songs of 2013: Part 4 [125-101]
Feedback Section:
Rem-Like the mainstream songs that happen to be dance/EDM songs in their first nature. I like both versions of Summertime Sadness and glad you like the Alesso remix of IULM. Most people seem to like Clarity a lot and claim as the best EDM song of the year.
This is the last part before we get into the top 100 of this countdown. Finally.
125 If You Could See Me Now The Script
If you could see me now would you recognize me? Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me? Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face. Put your hand on a heart that was cold. As the day you were taken away?
This is the #3 single from their #3 album. I do like that melodic piano sound that reminds me of another song with that similar sound or it just brings me into some kind of state of mind thinking about lost dreams or some sort. I like the singing in the hook and the singing done in a rap matter in the verses, which does well to bring the drive and focus on the meaning of this song. The background of this song is about recalling the death of two of the band members parents and wondering what they think of them if they could see them now-Danny O'Donoghue’s father (mentioned in the first line of the song died on Valentine Day in 2009) & both guitarist Mark Sheehan’s parents (died separately when he was 12). Such a heartfelt song this song is combined with this song is really about and what it is used for. Brings emotions to last a long time. I‘m grateful that I have parents that I love are alive along with my uncle, brothers, sister, grandpa and grandma especially my grandma that I love a lot and hopes she keeps on living and has an illness.
124 Red Taylor Swift
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street. Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly. Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall. Like the colors in autumn, so bright just before they lose it all.
What! Taylor Swift? The title track is here. I’m counting this song as a real country song. It’s a country-pop song. The oh oh ohs and the sounds that come with it make it more of an upbeat tone in the pop sense. In this song, she is describing what is loving him feels like. The color to describe the feeling of it is burning red. I do like the way she sings the verses and chorus because she lets the lyrics be like an open-book into her feelings. A typical and good Taylor Swift pace. All-around, I enjoyed the song from the way the lyrics are sung to the country sounds.
123 Best I Ever Had Gavin DeGraw
Night sky full of drones, this neighborhood of clones. I’m looking at the crowd and they’re staring at their phones. They groom the coast line here, the sun will disappear (oh, God!). And maybe once a year I think to clean my car.
Pure HAC candy. Basically, it’s different sounds that are trending HAC radio lately put together in this song. With its kinda cheesy lyrics and whatever happens, she is the best Gavin ever had and never be the same. I do like the up-beat sound with the guitars and sorta folk feel with the marching sound. The way Gavin sings in this song makes the song as catchy is it can get.
122 Dirty Laundry Kelly Rowland
He pulled me out, he said, “Don’t nobody love you but me. Not your mama, not your daddy and especially not Bey.” He turned me against my sister. I missed you.
Kelly has be the one to never talk about her personal life so I commend her for finally airing out her dirty laundry. With all that is said in the song, I can see why Kelly ever talked about her personal life-she couldn’t and felt trapped by the abusive boyfriend. The dirty laundries that air out in this song are the abusive caused by her boyfriend and being in the shadows of Beyoncé. She goes in on while she glad that Bey is killing it worldwide, Kelly feels mad that Bey is having all the success in the meanwhile Kelly is struggling though some bullsh!t. For years, Kelly made sure that no one knew that she was dating an abusive boyfriend. She hid it well and no one knew about it especially that people were more focused on Bey‘s fame. Only Kelly knew. As time went on, the dirty and painful cycle continued and she has became more depressed. The abusive turned for the worst when he went to mentally abusive her by turning her against her family. The trauma she feel from him was harsh. She finally saw that he is no good and never change. He’s gone now. Damn. Kelly had it really rough and her mindset was severely damaged because of it. Glad to see Kelly is in a lighter mood in her life and she now has a new man that she might have a good future with. The way of the mood in the music and the way Kelly sings speaks.
121 Red Hands Walk Off The Earth
I've seen it all before, you back out, and everything's changing. I needed something more, you stepped down, so what are you chasing? I'd put it on rewind for this time only (Is that what you really want?).
This band is famous for their viral video of the band performing a cover of STIUTK using a big ass guitar. 4 guys, 1 girl, 1 guitar. They also cover other popular songs and they even make their own music. This is one of them. I liked listening the way the group sings the chorus so well and matches with the sound of the music. The verses are also amazing to hear no matter who is singing it. I like the way the instruments are used in the song and makes the song more alive. The beating drums, the many variations of the guitars with a touch of the xylophone. It’s all a joyous and marvelous fun time. You know in their videos that they like to exploit the use of their instruments so much. The video itself looks fun to shoot. Their confetti guns are loaded! Red hands and loaded guns?! Guilty as charged. The band really created such a wonderful sound to awe in.
120 House of Gold Twenty One Pilots
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old, will you buy me a house of gold? And when your father turns to stone, will you take care of me?"
Just a good TOP song to just enjoy the relaxing nature the song provides. I don’t know, I just like listening to this song since it’s just fun and catchy that is easy to listen along to. It does sound more folk than the rest of their singles and no rap verses of any kind. I wish to own or at least see a House of Gold, but I realized that it will never happen and I’m ok with it. Thanks TOP for that realization.
119 Get Like Me Nelly ft. Nicki Minaj and Pharrell
All y'all n!ggas wanna get like me. Surrounded by bitches that look like these. You know it, you know it. You know it, you know it. All my n!ggas be blowin on trees. Hands so sick so they throwin up keys. You know it, you know it, You know it, you know it.
It’s safe to say that Nelly’s time is over. The glory days are gone just like the good old days in Hip-Hop back in the 00s. Just good Hip-Hop that actually sounds good to listen and all that. And some of them were all over Pop radio. Now it’s just disappointment, but there are at least some good ones in the big bunch of crap. Anyway the last hit Nelly had was a pop single knows as Just a Dream, which is a good song itself. Hey Porsche was more of a flop and I wasn’t feeling it as much. Get Like Me is a good song with such a thumping beat that excels at making the song worth listening to and I have enjoyed it a lot. Nelly’s rap verses goes well with the flow of the song and sounds so smooth and laidback. Guess what? Get like Pharrell as he’s in this song singing the mesmerizing hook and also the producer of the songs that makes the song so smooth and wonderful. Making another hit in the process in 2013. Nicki is also in this song and the way she raps in the song works well with the beat and flow in this song. She’s more different in this song than in other songs that she featured in. The video is a throwback to Drop It Like It’s Hot, which looks cool. I feel like the song is like a Drop It Like It‘s Hot remake or something of that sort. Funny that DILTH also features Pharrell. Hmm. The song samples Nelly‘s Flap Your Wings.
118 See You Again Carrie Underwood
I will see you again, whoa. This is not where it ends. I will carry you with me, oh 'til I see you again.
I have mention that 2013 was sort of a reunion between old friends and relatives for better or worse so I just leave it as that. Anyway, Carrie bought in this song. She really bought the emotion to the song to invest the feelings of seeing the one you love in the living flesh again after a long time. She sold that to me. The beautiful sounds were crafted well to make the feeling more meaningful and surround the atmosphere with that such feeling. The whoa/ohs with the accompanying sound were alright to fit the song, but just seem to me a bit unnecessary and make it like an over the top pop song or something of that sort. Still none of that matters since the song does well to reel in suckers err I mean people that can feel or relate to this song.
117 Why Am I The One fun.
Or go on, go on, go on. If you were thinking that the worst is yet to come. Why am I the one always packing up my stuff? For once, for once, for once I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong. Why am I the one always packing up my stuff?
One of my top favorite songs from their album and fourth single is here. The relaxing and mid-tempo pace of the song plus the way Nate express his desire of new life and wanting to try to make his relationship work again makes the song more enjoyable. No matter what happens in the song, Nate is the one that packs his stuff and move out and that just repeats itself. I always the one to think on why am I the one to either do certain things or have certain things happen to me. It didn’t have a solid run in my countdown as it peaked and stalled at 18 during its 8 week countdown run due to not waiting a better time to debut it in the countdown and let it go and couldn’t find the right moment to like the song as I did before. Oh well, it’s still one of my favorite songs from their album.
116 Everything Has Changed Taylor Swift ft. Ed Sheeran
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello." And your eyes look like coming home. All I know is a simple name. Everything has changed.
Taylor is here again? Has Taylor changed back into her prowess? No, she just have a few songs that are not pop only songs and not annoying. Red was one and Everything Has Changed is another . It’s even better that Ed is teaming up with Taylor to have a good time in the trampoline. Anyway, I deem this song some sort of pop ballad than a country song. Taylor and Ed make a good team with the way their vocals work in the song separate and together. Also the way the instruments were arranged particularly the guitar were used well to sink in the vibe that I’m feeling with Tay and Ed. It’s a very nice song that keeps me going with the way both Taylor & Ed made this collaboration work. Songwriters rule this song.
115 Black Skinhead Kanye West
Four in the mornin', and I'm zonin'. They say I'm possessed, it's an omen. I keep it 300, like the Romans. 300 bitches, where the Trojans?
Here’s the part that I realize I put Taylor before Kanye is about to blow up…his head. We can’t never forget the infamous VMAs incident. Good times. Anyway, Kanye made the right choice debuting the song at SNL as it sounds so good live as it charges in front of you. This dark and rebellious tune just bang so hard and Kanye leads the march as he takes charge and talks about what he wants to say. He bought the intensity in this song. The main thing he talks about in the song is anti-establishment and anti-racism stuff along with bragging on what he has. It’s a day in Ye’s life. Daft Punk help produce this song with Kanye and Lupe helped Kayne wrote this song.
114 Dirty Paws Of Monsters and Men
Jumping up and down the floor, my head is an animal. And once there was an animal, It had a son that mowed the lawn. The son was an ok guy, They had a pet dragonfly. The dragonfly it ran away, but it came back with a story to say.
This is their fourth single. This may not have been successful or noticeable at all than the other three singles, but still a good song. This song showcase how well the band can tell a story through their lyrics or at least make it sound like a mythological storytale. The dueling vocals are on point to tell a story and their redefined folk and indie pop sound just has me sink into the warming sound. Dirty paws slay all creatures, queen bees and their men.
113 The One Tamar Braxton
I reminisce the way we kissed it felt so personal. You took the chance to win my love and now you know
(It was all a dream). And I don’t even know one baby.
This summer throwback brings the vibe to just relax and listen to the beautiful sound of Tamar as sings her only voice out to declare that her husband Vince is the one for her. Tamar is hot for someone her age and her husband is not bad looking, but ehh. Still happy for the two and their future together. Oh yeah, they have a baby now. The One is a heartwarming song. It samples Notorious B.I.G.’s Juicy-It was all a dream! It’s a nice use of the sample that helps the mood and the heart of the song.
112 Paper Doll John Mayer
This one we made just for fall. And winter runs a bit too small. This mint green is new for Spring. My love didn’t cost a thing.
I like the nice vibe shown in the song and the way John sings all calm and easy just sound so heavenly. The guitar solo is always nice to get lost into. Apparently this song is a T-Swift diss. With the mention of Moroccan red scarf and the You’re like twenty-two girls in one. Red is being mention a lot in this Best of and the song was just at #124. 22 is not in the countdown at all as I find that song annoying as hell. I guess John is getting back at Taylor for her song Dear John. John may be an asshole, but Taylor is not all innocent either with her angel wings. Got at least half of a heart shown. I could handle liking this song if a paper doll couldn’t and falls. I noticed that Taylor does really wear a bunch of different dresses.
111 If I Lose Myself OneRepublic
I stared up at the sun. Thought of all of the people, places and things I’ve loved. I stared up just to see
with all of the faces, you were the one next to me.
This song is the grower of the year for me. I didn’t care for it at first, but later on I got into the melodic sound of the song and enjoyed it. Too bad US radio couldn’t do the same and let the song die. Anyway, Ryan’s vocals are done nicely to melt into the awe inspiring sound. I found losing myself into the music and enjoyed the song doing its magic on me. The instrumental is amazing, and the outro takes charge. The song has a feeling of waking up on an airplane 40,000 feet up and feel all nice next to your beloved one. There is also an Alesso remix of the song that sounds good. This song does have some kind of EDM-feel. I enjoyed getting lost into this song.

110 The Phoenix Fall Out Boy
Hey, Youngblood doesn’t it feel like our time is running out. I’m going to change you like a remix. Then I’ll raise you like a phoenix.
Out of all the singles in 2013, The Phoenix is by far my favorite single in 2013. This song helps to get ready for action. It could be your own badass theme or something like that. The intensity in the song helps me to enjoy the song so much and this song helps FOB to rise like a phoenix from mediocrity and their hiatus.
109 Atlas Coldplay
Some saw the sun. Some saw the smoke. Some heard the gun. Some bent the bow. Sometimes the wire
Must tense for the note. We're caught in the fire, say oh. We're about to explode.
It's a soundtrack song from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. It may be not the most exciting Coldplay song, but it’s such a mesmerizing song to me. I just like the really slow mood and that creates a melodramatic cycle to get lost into. It has a nice lyric video.
108 Unconditionally Katy Perry
Oh no, did I get too close? Oh, did I almost see what's really on the inside? All your insecurities. All the dirty laundry. Never made me blink one time.
This song was an easy hit for her as this song fits pop radio’s unconditional love for Katy. They just eat it right up. I liked this song more than Roar. This may be some kind of lame song, but I still enjoy it and Katy lets it all out. It just sounds nice. This song seems to end its run as a second single rather quickly already. It’s a nice song while it lasted.
107 Do What U Want Lady Gaga ft. R. Kelly
Write what you want. Say what you want about me. If you're wondering. Know that I'm not sorry. Do what you want. What you want with my body. What you want with my body.
These guys work on this song back in Chicago. These two did a good job on this song and it’s one of the best from the album. Do What U Want With Gaga’s Body has such a nice dance vibe to get down and just feel the music in your veins. Just move along to the beat of the music. Gaga feels the power and tells it like it is. R.Kelly sounds good in this song and tells off the crazy sh!t he and other likes to do while not think about the other crazy sh!t that happens outside the high life. Just want to blow off some stream and not give a f**k! This song is not only about casual sex and party, it seems to be also about the way the Media and tabloids go after Gaga and her strange ways along with her physical appearance. Gaga basically says that they can do what they want to her as she doesn’t give a f**k! Based on the cover for this song, I really want to do what I want with Gaga’s ass and body too. I bet that if I checked now, the video still has not came out. Trolling is obvious. NO matter, it will debut in my countdown anyway since it does not us video caps. I guess I made my countdown songs with videos. It’s now broken due to this song.
106 1 Train A$AP Rocky ft. Kendrick Lamar, Joey Bada$$, Yelawolf, Danny Brown, Action Bronson, and Big KRIT
I huddle with Nubians, new beginning again. You in school at 10, late, Radioactive's goin' gold. And so? GREAT. Do I give a flying duck, If I'm applyin' love to my rhymin' plus alignin' us? Alabama's climbin' up, wait, no I don't give a flying duck, nothing but a buckshot, Ch, pow! Motherf**k your life, pu$$y blood clot. Ain't never been no rapper this cold since 2Pac was froze and thawed out for a spot date at a Coachella show, Yelawolf.
Nothing, but just a great list of rappers doing their thing in this song to make it feel great and the mood of the song is endearing and dawning that put some realism into this song. Enjoyed all the rappers verses especially Joey Bada$$, Yelawolf, and Danny Brown (do you think he sounds like B.O.B in this song initially?). A$AP is right, anything is better then that 1 train. I do like trains and have been one with my brothers and my uncle during our own field trip and exploration days. Rocky mentions NYC’s 1 Train and I heard that it is sh!tty for its slowness, smelliness, and awfulness. Lucky, Rocky got fame and can ride Mustang and Lambo than on a 1 Train. I guess I should rank the order of the rappers verses I liked the most. Ranking from best to least: Yelawolf, Joey Bada$$, Danny Brown, A$AP Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, Big KRIT, and Action Bronson. Hit-Boy is the producer of this song.
105 Best Day of My Life American Authors
I 'm never gonna look back, woah. Never gonna give it up, no. Please don't wake me now.
It’s an Imagine Dragons influenced song. Their power inspired them to make such a joyous song. Anyway, it’s a really damn catchy song to feel the carefree vibe and let yourself go. All to think and do is enjoy the best day of your life. It’s also a nice song to just listen, dance, and sing along to. I don’t really dance, I mouthed the chorus, and I really love listening along to the song. You got to like bridges in the song to provide the final hooray and light it up a bit before ended it with the choruses. The video is a strange one that makes sense for the song. Wasn’t it really a dream with the man and the cute animal? At least that was the best time of that guy’s life. I haven’t have the best day of my life yet, but I will. This song was used for a Lowe‘s commercial, the Delivery Man trailer, and for a Romantic-Comedy movie starting familiar people that I can‘t name. Steve something right? It came out in late December.
104 Wasting All These Tears Cassadee Pope
And you left me. Standing on a corner crying. Feeling like a fool for trying. I don't even remember
why I'm wasting all these tears on you. I wish I could erase our memory. 'Cause you didn't give a damn about me. Oh, finally I'm through wasting all these tears on you. These tears on you.
I really like the emotion Cassadee bought to drive the song into the edge. It gives a powerful reading to indicate that Cassadee has been hurt by the cheating and betrayal by her ex-boyfriend. She wonders why waste tears on him. Instead she decides to remain strong and not give tears out anymore. The song brings the drama element very nicely.
103 The Monster Eminem ft. Rihanna
Call me crazy, but I have this vision. One day that I'll walk amongst you a regular civilian. But until then drums get killed and I'm coming straight at MCs, blood gets spilled and I'll take it back to the days that I'd get on a Dre track.
First of all, this song is not on par or great like Love The Way You Lie. When I first heard the song, I wasn’t feeling it as much and didn’t really care to like it more than I should have. However, like the nice guy I am, it grew on me based on the song itself and the way the music sucked me in. Now, I feel the song is a good song for itself. Enjoyed The Monster and the dark nature, but in a lighter mood of the song. I enjoyed Em’s rap verses that have deal with his past and what has fame done to him by befriending the monster. The drug part of him is out and is here to rap like the old days without the drug influence. Apparently RiRi says “Well, that’s nothing” instead of “Well, that’s not fair”. I do hear nothing, but I guess the way she sings, she says that’s not fair. I guess it’s not fair really. She does good to bring the fire into this song. Glad for the success off this song.
102 A Light That Never Comes Linkin Park X Steve Aoki
‘Cause I know what it's like to test fate. Had my shoulders pressed with that weight. Stood up strong in spite of that hate.
Just missing the top 100, this song is apart of the Living Things remix album that this song also have its own remix. Anyway, this song has a good combination of rock and electronic. Steve did a nice job with the mixing and co-producing the song. Mike and Chester did a good job as usual to make the song alive on what they do best respectably. Jamming to this song feels good even though the light might never come.
101 Female Robbery The Neighbourhood
I think I found help (hell?). I think I found something. I think I found something in my TV screen. I think I found out that I have nothing. That I have nothing in this place for me.
Finishing the first half of this countdown is Female Robbery. I don’t know if it says help or hell on that above line. I think it might be hell. Anyway, I like the ominous feeling in the beginning of the song when it first starts before the verses. The music help set a dark and confused moment where you don’t know what is going on. You’re in that state of mind to wonder what’s in your life. The vocals are kinda mesmerizing and builds the song up very well to see where does all the wondering and actions lead to. I guess that this song is about how life isn’t like TV and it’s the way it is. Also there are some kind of robbery or kidnapping of some sort where the victim seems to be perplexing, but at the same time seems alright to be with the kidnappers since the victim feels that it had a miserable life with its own family and feels fine to stay with them. I don’t know what’s the ordeal, but I just really like the mood of the song and the way the vocals just keeps the song going and have us enter a trance to enjoy the song in a new perspective.
That’s it for the first half of the top songs of 2013. Get ready for the top 100. It’s all really good and great. You won’t believe the sh!t that is going down. Some might be predicable, but they all sweetness. Stay tuned.
Coming up is the Top 200 Songs of 2013: Part 5 [100-76] and until then, comment on this countdown.

Great to see "Dirty Paws" by Of Monsters And Men. This song appears on the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. I watched it last week and it made me love the song even more.

Top 200 Songs of 2013: Part 5 [100-76]
Feedback Section:
jbstatic23-All these tears for Cassadee for such an amazing song.
Rem-Thanks. Some interesting songs you like. More love for Cassadee and her wasted tears as Gaga does what she wants and take it all in while Kanye charges.
JGibson- You like over 15 songs this time. Some good songs you like such as See You Again, Wasting All These Tears, & Dirty Paws. I noticed that you put 22 as one of the songs you love. I never put 22 in and I have mention my displeasure on that song. Oh, well. No harm no foul.
Brandon-Some good songs you like and glad you like it.
mathuss-Dirty Paws gets some more love & oh that's the movie. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Huh. Well, the song made the commercial fun anyway and glad you like the song even more.
potentbreakupsong-Clap for those red hands and house of gold and best I ever had. The BDOML video is very interesting and enjoyable. Such a fun time to have.
We get to start the second half and the top100 of the top songs countdown. These are mostly the songs I really enjoyed a lot either year-around or during a great certain amount time. This part also have some songs that were lucky enough to be apart of the top 100. They are all good though. Just some of them kinda faded, but still remember how I like these songs and there were good times. See it yourself.
100 Downtown Lady Antebellum
I got some platforms sitting in the corner. They wanna stroll on a city sidewalk. I got a dress that'll show a little uh uh but you ain't gettin' uh uh if you don't come pick me up (damn), show me off (wow), You might be tired, but I'm not!
Let’s start this off by taking a trip to downtown. By listening to the lyrics of the song, this explains why I don’t try to get a girlfriend. I feel bad if I don’t take her out somewhere exciting. Money problems and transpiration problems. Downtown is a good place to walk around all the places and all that. Downtown is such a good song to just like it and enjoy the vocals and the tone of the music. This song is about why her boyfriend don’t take out and around downtown anymore. She is really bored and frustration and that’s the last thing you want to do with your girlfriend. We all should go downtown. I don’t go out a often I would like.
99 The City The 1975
And don't call it a spade if it isn’t a spade. And go lie on the floor if you want. The first bit of advice that you gave me. That I liked was they're too strong, too strong. Get in the shower if it all goes wrong.
From downtown, let’s explore the city, where we might find love. The vocals are solid and the sound sends a setting of the mystery and dark parts of the city into the state of mind. It sends such a realism vibe. I just really like listening to it. Based on the lyrics, it’s about relationship troubles and seems the dude has passed out due to some kind of addiction of drugs. I do enjoy walking around the city and let the fresh air get to me and enjoy seeing the buildings, the ocean, and the parks. I like to live in the city again. A city where it’s just building and it’s a big city where we can do stuff, but nothing big that is going on. A city like San Jose, California. That city is actually known for its technology field. A fine city to live, but that city got somehow overcrowded. Cites like LA & San Francisco are only great to have a really good time and enjoy the main city aspects. Not to live though since it’s kinda a mess especially the kind of trash they throw away and crowded. Traffic is also murder. I bet some people only live there because that’s where their career jobs are at. Anyway I like the city life. The chorus is right when the cites are a fine place to feel the love and joy of life. This song is also on FIFA 14 just like Love Me Again.
98 Lover Of The Light Mumford & Sons
And in the middle of the night. I may watch you go. There'll be no value in the strength. Of walls that I have grown.
I don’t think this song was on my year-end countdown last year, but it’s here inside the top 100. This song seems to about a relationship and having each other is the most importance to build it up and stay strong. Being comfortable with each other in the light. Lovers of the light. It’s in the open like that. The vocals are strong and bring the needed force in the song to get invest into. The way the vocals are singing the song is amusing and follows the path to enlighten the mood to a bright one. The folk sound still works and enjoyed the sound of it even when it’s just the folk sound part too. When the song builds down, it sets the mood apart from the rest of the song and just listen to the lower voice as the sound winds down. I enjoyed listening to the song earlier in the year.
97 Six Degrees Of Separation The Script
First, you think the worst is a broken heart. What's gonna kill you is the second part. And the third, is when your world splits down the middle. And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself. Fifth, you see them out with someone else. And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have f***ed up a little.
I never initially bothered to know what Six Degrees Of Separation actually means and wonder how it is played out in the song unlike some other people who cared to research. The song is about going through the six stages of a person’s emotional state after a break-up. The song was written after lead singer Danny broke up with his girlfriend that he dated for four years. Not 3? The songs is centered finding ways to deal of not remember the girlfriend and say you’re okay, but really you’re not and just doing these things out of desperation. That’s a bad feeling and hard to ignore for sure. Finding fault in yourself is the first step of letting go or realizing you miss the relationship. The song sound so nice and the vocals does well to give this life lesson a true meaning. The music is amazing and fits the mood and the state of mind. Letting yourself go into this song is wonderful and the right thing to do.
96 Stompa Serena Ryder
People, working every night and day. Never give yourself no time. Got too many bills to pay
Slow down, nothing's gonna disappear. If you give yourself some room. To move to the music you hear.
It’s just a good feeling song to get you in the mood to just feel and move to the music. That’s what the song is about and used for. I like the sound as it does get me to stompa ma feet and also have my head moving to connect to the sound. Serena sings quite well and knows to have a nice atmosphere to get around and feel this type of music. Music makes us feel better is the main message of the song. It’s motivated to reach that goal. I liked this song for a certain amount of time until I got tired of it and never care to listen afterward. Still I like to stompa ma feet and maybe clappa ma hands.
95 Feels Like We Only Go Backwards Tame Impala
It feels like I only go backwards, lately. Every part of me says go ahead. I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again. Feels like we only go backwards darling.
This song really goes back backwards as in the sound is kinda influenced by Pink Floyd. This slow moving psych-rock sound has the power to make you feel like we only go backwards. In my life, I do feel that even though I feel I should progress with my actions, I just remain in the same position and even feel that I only go backwards and not forward. I can relate to the song. Finding a way to just move on and take pleasure to do something with my life. I just want to listen to the song and let the music take me away to a nice isolated place to relax and enjoy the music. And do away with negative vibes and focus on letting the music get to me and enjoy the sound as its soothes me.
94 Next to Me Emeli Sandé
You won’t find him tryna chase the devil. For money, fame, for power out of greed. You won't ever find him where the rest go. You will find him, you’ll find him next to me.
I think this song was in the countdown last year, but I don’t think it was in this high. Glad this song reached success and notice for Emeli. This song is simple in what is about. Emeli wanted this song to be just a song where you have someone next to you and the feeling of it. Emeli is inspired by soul music and Aretha Franklin. Also she wanted that old soul feeling and speak about love, loyalty, and good faithful men that are good people. I think that she succeeds in those aspects. You can use this song to be about your lover. The lover in the song could be anyone so it’s easy to imagine the person. Hell, it can even be about Jesus or God. I just like listening to the beats of the song and the rest of the music along with Emeli’s vocals that show that she is alright since there is someone next to her comforting her and making sure she is alright. I like enjoying the song during the first half of the year until I got bored with it since I listened to it a lot. There was a remix with Kendrick, which I haven’t heard yet.
93 Reload Sebastian Ingrosso and Tommy Trash ft. John Martin
When night has become the day, they're sending you far away. So, so far away. When everything starts to fade. You don't have to be afraid. No, you don't have to be afraid.
This is my theme song for my Best of. This is also free love! That is what we are made of. Reload! John sings so well with the song and makes it feel so alive. I really invest into his vocals used in the song. Man, I like that beat drop. Sebastian and Tommy did a tremendous job with the music production throughout the song that brings the intense and some dramatic aspects as well. Also it’s good to also rave. I like to listen to it a lot and let myself go with the music. Also nothing to do with the song, but when I get some connecting problems with the internet, I get a page about the problems and also has the button that says Reload that tries to fresh and get the page back.
92 If I Didn't Have You Thompson Square
You are my heart, every breath I breathe. I'm safe in your arms, you rescue me. When I'm weak, you're strong. If you were gone I don't know where I'd be. You were made for me (You were made for me).
It’s a song that is about one can’t live without the other. It’s a very nice song to like and get into. The vocals are amazing and both of them know how to connect into the song and bring that needed emotion to get invest into and make it as meaningful as it can get. It sounds so nice.
91 Bad Wale ft. Tiara Thomas/Bad Remix ft. Rihanna
Is it bad that I never made love, no I never did it. But I sure know how to f**k. I'll be your bad girl, I'll prove it to you. I can't promise that I'll be good to you.
I really like both versions of Bad and I decide that both are in this year in the same spot since I didn’t want take a spot away from a song since the remix is good enough to hang on its own and I wanted to have more different songs in the countdown. Let’s talk about the original. First of all, let’s talk about what the songs is about. It is about how Wale just only wants to f**k and the girl she is with is a player and wants to f**k all night and then after it’s all done she is on to the next one. She’s bad, but not bad in bed of course. Well, she’s bad in a way how to treat them and the rest feels good. The opening guitar is nice and in the intro, Wale says that monogamy is not for everybody and it’s damn sure it’s not for him and that they rush in relationships anyway. Tying down for someone is not his thing. The beat starts to light up the mood a bit and Tiara sings the hook. During the song, Wale tells all the things what the girl he is f**king with really is and all her habits and preferences. The way she handles things. Also Wale talks about the dilemma on what type of girl to get since he says “Bad girls ain't no good, and the good girls ain't no fun and the hood girls want a smart n!gga, college girls all want a thug so it seems we fiend what we don't need.” Wale also likes confident woman that know when to leave when the sex is over. He’s okay that the woman is bad that she hits it and then quits it and runs. Like the way Wale raps in his verses that tell his tale and makes it real as it can get and helps with the mood of the song. Just keeping it real about the woman while lighten things up and fit the mood of just having causal sex. Tiara does well with the hook to sing like she questions that since she doesn’t know if she ever love someone and the sex was not fuel by burning passion of love and it was just plain sex, is it bad? She is sure that she knows how to f**k, but never really made love since she didn’t really experience love. She’s bad that she never made love, but knows to have sex without hose attachments. Tiara sings to fit the light mood of the song. Her vocals are amazing and help the song to really get the fire going and treat it right. Tiara is also co-producer of the song and the song is taken from Tiara’s own Bad. I need to hear that song only from her. Now for the Rihmix. First of all, there are some slight changes in the rap verses done by Wale. Also not only Rihanna sings the hook, she also sings with Wale in some parts of the song. The young woman in this song just wants to f**k since she doesn’t not to be in the relationship that will end up breaking her heart. So she is just living life her way and she is the one to break hearts and f**ks them. I enjoy the parts when Wale & Rih sings their verses together so I can the just and sense of the song to make it real and in your face as possible as it can get. Also at the end of the verses, Wale references Rih’s album by saying that all these bad bitches ate always unapologetic, which is true to the young woman described in the song & Rihanna. Rihanna does a fine job on the hook and makes it her feel that she is bad and is fine with it. She does a fine job to fit the mood of the song so easily. I can’t really decide which one did the hook best and which version is the best one. Fine, I decide that Tiara did the hook the best, but the Rihmix is the best because Rihanna made the song more than the way it is since we know she’s unapologetic in real life especially in her sex life. It‘s a tie. Bad became a big urban hit.
90 Overjoyed Matchbox Twenty
The smile on your face like summer. The way that your hand keeps touching mine. Let me be the one that make it right.
This song is really amazing. I like this song mostly in the early years of 2013. I just got suckered into the song with its beautiful sound. The way Rob sings just speaks volume and really made the song feel more meaningful and the accompanying sound is just wonderful and feels so joyous. A good, light M20 song. This could be used as someone’s wedding song. It really fits and that’s like maybe the best day of their life so they will feel overjoyed especially with this song. I don’t think I feel overjoyed ever in my life, but I do feel over enjoyment when I listen to this amazing song.
89 Ways to Go Grouplove
Don’t wanna sleep tonight. You’ve got me feeling right. I didn’t know my name. I didn't know my name.
This song is exciting and like the raspy or whiny tone of the male vocalist when he tries too hard to get that high note or high pitch to work in this fun and catchy that is kinda arranged differently to get the exciting sounds to be all over and just dance and listen along for the fun of it. There are a ways to go to makes the song exciting. The playful tune and the instrumentals work well to have a joyous time. The female vocals are nice and does the hook nicely done. This alt.rock/ indie pop song gets the music moving to just be all crazy and all the fun breaks loose.
88 Vilify Device
I can't believe this is happening. I don't wanna start over again. A stone I keep falling over again, and again, and again.
This song is just a good rocking song to get into and feel the intension and all the stuff that brings down and around. The thumping and fast-pace rocking sound just keeps me going. But hey, when you are down, you gotta get up and not take the vilify. The singer did well to keep up with the pace and let the words to get the feel of it.
87 Summertime Sadness (Remix) Lana Del Rey vs. Cedric Gervais
I'm feelin' electric tonight. Cruising down the coast goin' 'bout 99. Got my bad baby by my heavenly side. I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight.
I like both versions, but I decide that the remix should only be here since I have the original made the video countdown last year. In 2013, the remix got famous and listened to the remix more in 2013. I just watch the video for the original and not the song it at times. Cedric Gervais did a nice remix on this to just feel the music and enjoy Lana’s vocals in a new light. The EDM sound kinda works. It may change the course of the original, but Lana’s tone in the song still sounds captivating and amazing. Plus it help Lana finally get some US success as the remix become a hit so I shouldn’t feel bad getting down into the song. Also it relaxes me. When I walk around campus I hear that other people like to listen to the song as I hear them listening to it. That’s the prove of its success. Got that summertime sadness. Oh oh whoa. BTW, even though it‘s all about 2013, I heard that Cedirc won a Grammy yesterday for this remix. Congrats.
86 Two Black Cadillacs Carrie Underwood
And the preacher said he was a good man. And his brother said he was a good friend. But the women in the two black veils didn’t bother to cry. Bye bye, bye bye.
This song is such an ominous feeling that really works in the song and man how Carrie sings this song with such force and drive and with conviction sold it to me and really makes the story of the two black Cadillacs come alive and the chorus has that dramatic drive to really get things moving and feel the intension. I really enjoyed listening the lyrics as Carrie sung it well and I feel good when I paid attention to the words. You already knew the story by listening to the lyrics. The video is the visual of the song. The story is basically that the women ( The Two Black Cadillacs) found out that the man were f**king with both of them and out for vengeance. The man dies and we all at the funeral. It’s obvious that the two women were the cause of the death. We can assume that for sure. The lyrics translates well in the video. Overall, such a great song with its bone-chilling dramatic song. Never get caught in a lie since hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!

85 Crooked Smile J. Cole ft. TLC
Love yourself, girl, or nobody will. Oh, you a woman? I don't know how you deal with all the pressure to look impressive and go out in heels. I feel for you. Killing yourself to find a man that'll kill for you. You wake up, put makeup on stare in the mirror but its clear that you can’t face what’s wrong. No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on. Your roommate yelling, "Why you gotta take so long?" What it's like to have a crooked smile. This crooked smile.
This song features the two living members of TLC. TLC did a nice job on the hook to feel the vibe of the song. J. Cole did a nice job on his verses and tells it like it is to get his point across. The song is about not worrying about the way you look and other insecurity and we all got that crooked smile. Funny that Cole mentions his bad teeth in the song. Also to stop wasting beef and accept people that are different and have crooked smiles. This is another song that mentions that it seems that there are a lot of Blacks in jail in the US. The song overall is uplifting and catchy that has such a nice vibe to get inspired by and feel at home and gain confidence. Like the keys sound used in the song. Now I think about it, I do kind of have a crooked smile and maybe crooked teeth or jaw. I never got braces before. The video for this song has an interesting surreal concept and takes in a much darker tone to get the message across from the war on drugs with accidental murder.
84 Timeless The Airborne Toxic Event
I see her, they run through the tall grass. Such thoughtless minds, I wish I was thoughtless too. Well this hole in my heart, that I cannot abide. Just want you to stay with me tonight.
This song is such an amazing song to appreciate the beauty of life and somebody. This song also has some kind of timeless sound to get lost into. It’s a struggle to live life and all the trouble to get through and this song helps to never give up and keep going and appreciate what you have and share it with people you love. Such a nice sound this song brings. I like this song a lot when I first heard and then it faded on me. I guess the feeling of timeless was limited.
83 Sex The 1975
And this is how it starts. You take your shoes off in the back of my van. Yeah my shirt looks so good when it's just hanging off your back.
We came from the city to sex. In the city , sex does happen more often than not. Sex & The City. Sorry about that. Such a catchy and drum pounding kind of song to relax and listen along. The vocals fit with the vibe of the sound. Very enjoyable song. This song is about a guy trying to f**k with a girl that has a boyfriend. Anyway, since the girl has a boyfriend already, she just wants to hook up and have sex with the guy and nothing more. But the guy never had the sex with the girl since she thinks it will be crossing the line since she got a boyfriend anyway and might be a better boyfriend all-around. The guy tries to convinces her that they went far already so might as well have sex, but no avail. No sex or even some kind of relationship with her. She got a boyfriend anyway. The guy learn that these type of girls would only want sex and nothing more since they all got boyfriends anyway. Hearing that line of “she got a boyfriend anyway” continuously in the song hits me inside. I like to hang out and spend time and maybe get it on with some girls I see around campus and other places. I just feel that they might have boyfriends anyway so they wouldn’t waste their time with me since they already are in a relationship with their boyfriends anyway. Did I mention that she got a boyfriend anyway? Do they want to be just friends if they want to? I should just ask or maybe hope that they come to me? Yeah, like the latter will happen. I should notice more when I see girls look at me with smiles. I discover that this song has a new video and wow.
82 Babel Mumford & Sons
'Cause I'll know my weakness, know my voice and I'll believe in grace and choice and I know perhaps my heart is farce, but I'll be born without a mask.
The rocking force of the folk rock comes alive in this song. The sound just goes in and hush down at times to pick it up and let it sail. Marcus did his best with his vocals to match well with the song and the pace of the sound to have it structured perfectly as it can. This song seems to be about overcoming and realizing one’s weakness. This song is my favorite from them in 2013 and maybe my favorite single from the album. This is the title track to those that don’t know.
81 Young and Beautiful Lana Del Rey
I've seen the world. Done it all, had my cake now. Diamonds, brilliant, and Bel-Air now. Hot summer nights mid July. When you and I were forever wild. The crazy days, the city lights. The way you'd play with me like a child.
From The Great Gatsby soundtrack, Lana did an amazing job to make this song feel alive and real as it needed to be. Lana sold the prospect of wondering if her lover will stay love her when she gets old and has an optimistic feeling in this haunting and dreary song. The ominous and melodramatic nature of the song fits well with the content in the film. Just love the feeling I get from the song throughout and Lana’s voice is so amazing to hear and the song is just great as it is. Perfect. Place your bets if Lana’s lover will love her still when she’s no longer young and beautiful. This song also has a Cedric Gervais remix as well. He remixes the same way he did with Summertime Sadness in terms of sound and arrangement. It’s not bad, but not amazing either. There is also a Kaskade remix that I like.
80 Closer Tegan & Sara
It’s not just all physical. I’m the type who will get oh so critical. So let’s make things physical. I won’t treat you like you’re oh so typical.
This song is when they have embraced the more pop sound to their music. It’s a fun and catchy mid-tempo song that all we want to know is if they can come a little closer and have a fun time with each other in a romantic way of getting it on. It’s not just physical in touching or getting it on, it’s also to enjoy each other company and see how it goes and not let it go and not ruining it by being typical. It’s a nice song to have a fun party. I like the song mostly in the early months of the year until the spark was gone from the song and I was bored of hearing it. Glad this song became a known hit for them. The video seems to have a fun time done in a different way than other wild and crazy house parties.
79 Cruise Florida Georgia Line
I put it in park and grabbed my guitar and strummed a couple chords and sang from the heart.
Girl you sure got the beat in my chest bumpin’. Hell, I can’t get you out of my head.
It’s just a good song to listen along and also sing along while taking a cruise. It’s a good road song and it’s catchy. Just listening to the song and let it enter my ears is good to relive stress and just enjoy life and the breeze of the fresh air while taking a cruise. Also to enjoy seeing girls around and wonder what kind of song they are and what do they make me feel.? Make me feel to pour into a song? What kind of music they like and what kind keeps them moving? I did enjoyed the song a lot last year and the early parts of the year, but later in the year, I just didn’t care for it anymore and that’s why it’s in this spot. There is also a remix with Nelly, but I didn’t like it and was annoying to hear. Sorry Nelly, but it‘s crap. This song was played at the end of the Hey Porsche video when leaving to ride and cruise.
78 Recovery Frank Turner
And on the first night we met you said, "Well darling, let's make a deal if anybody ever asks us let's just tell them that we met in jail." And that's the story that I'm sticking to like a stony-faced accomplice, but tonight I need to hear some truth if I'm ever getting through this.
I never expected to like this song more than I have. It even debuted on my weekly countdown as it seems to be only On Deck bound, but it prove me wrong. I just liking enjoy the music and the way the vocals bring energy to the song makes me excited. Some kind of different sound to help make this feel so up-beat and catchy to bring some life into oneself. This song is about Frank’s recovering from a break-up by partying more than necessary. It’s about realizing a problem and need to sort it out. I get pumped up with this song and I jump around to this song as well. Happy guitar. Just one of those songs that makes a good summer feel good. I can used this song as confidence to get back on track and do something with my life while others can use it for their own road to recovery.
77 Harlem New Politics
I spend my money on the regular miracles. Just like you, like me, like everybody else. Up on the sun, lookin' sad and beautiful Just like you, like me, like everybody else.
Forget the Harlem Shake since even people in Harlem hate it and it seems that they already have some kind of Harlem Shake in the old school past. This song is just super catchy that the only thing to do is shake it like a bad girl in Harlem. A Bad Girl In Harlem is also the name of their album. What? The fun of alt.rock pop songs. Enjoy.
76 Right Action Franz Ferdinand
Come home practically all is nearly forgiven. Right thoughts, right words, right action. Almost everything could be forgotten. Right thoughts, right words, right action.
Let’s end this set with some right action. Dee do doo do. Yes, they also reference their album. The guitar rules in this song. The cymbal sounds are nice. The funky rhythm and build-up drum beats are also highlights in the song. It’s a nice listen along song the way the vocals went. Also it can be a sing along song. I enjoy this song and all the catchy sounds in the song. I dig it. Their video is basically a lyric video with some cool background.
Did I call the right action in this set? Let me know what did you see in this part. I will have the next part soon.
Coming up is the Top 200 Songs of 2013: Part 6 [75-51] and until then, comment on this countdown.

Feels Like We Only Go Backwards and Closer are just great. I hope to see more Tame Impala.

Great to see double The 1975 and Mumford & Sons in the same set!
"Feels Like We Only Go Backwards" is amazing! I kind of experience the same feeling as you when I listen to the song.

Holy ****, I need to comment a lot I've been very busy 
Dance Songs (one of my favorite genres as you know!!!)
Latch! I love that song, too bad I discovered it way too late! But if this song becomes an smash in the US I will debut it this year  Sam Smith has an amazing voice.
Thursday! Great song, love the chorus, the production and of course that great touch by Example's rap!
Rudimental, Axis and Armin! Wow, I need to listen to that Benny Benassi song, his album was one of my faves in 2011, didn't know he released music in 2013. Waiting All Night! Amazing song with an amazing music video! I really love Ella's voice, it's so unique an amazing. Animals! I'm not a big fan of song without vocals, but this one is great. Again, you know what are my thoughts on WMU lol but well, great. DYWC, it was one of my least favorite songs from SHM but it grew on me, I love that song now. I love the SS remix, although the original one is still my favorite. Clarity is ok, not my favorite from Zedd but I liked it some months ago. Perfect Replacement so high  wasn't expecting this! This is amazing. Atmosphere! I really love then an electronic music producer sings, this song is amazing, probably my favorite from Kaskade now! Reload, another great song! I haven't heard that remix of If I Lose Myself, but I should, that's one of the few songs I like from OneRepublic and I really enjoy Alesso's work. And of course the best song is #1  Get Lucky! The perfect electronic song, I love it so much!
Continuing with the main top...
Well, the first part is not my favorite, a lot of songs that I don't know, and others that I don't like but there are 2 songs that I love! The first one is House of Gold! I overplayed the whole album very fast so when they released the music video I was already bored of HOG, but it's an amazing song with an amazing music video! and like I said before, I like If I Lose Myself
Atlas is cute. Do What U Want! I love that song, agree, it's one of my faves from her album. I love the fact that this song is not over-produced like a lot of songs on ARTPOP, the beat is simple, but great. I'm still waiting for the music video  Best Day Of My Life! What a cute song, I love it! but I just discovered that song in December, it's going to be part of my 2014's list. A Light That Never Comes missing top 100 I like the song, got old fast though :/ The Monster is a good song, not as good as Love The Way You Like though, this one got old faster. Female Robbery is great too, I really like The Neighbourhood.
The next set...
The City + Downtown are both ok songs. Stompa, totally sounds like an Adele song! and even though I'm not the biggest fan of Adele apart from 2-3 songs, I really enjoyed this song. Feels Like We Only Go Backwards is good. Reload! Like I said before I love that song, the music video is really great.
Overjoyed, Ways To Go , Summertime Sadness remix
Sex is great. Young and Beautiful, tbh I don't like her latest songs as much as the singles from Born To Die, but is not bad. Closer is good! Harlem OMG! I'm on love with that song right now! I heard the song for the first time in June or something like that, but I didn't pay attention. Now I'm obsessed with the song and I'm really sorry that this song just missed my top 100, it's amazing!  and finally Right Action! My favorite single from their latest album, it's great. Franz Ferdinand 
You need to finish this! Can't wait for top 75
