60 · HILARY DUFF, "Chasing The Sun
Weeks on Chart: 10 Weeks
Peak Position: #03
Debut Date: August 2, 2014
Hilary Duff returns to the music scene after several years with the perfect summer anthem "Chasing The Sun". A lot of people were disappointed with this comeback single, but I actually feel the opposite. I instantly loved "Chasing The Sun" at first listen. Catchy and makes me want to hit the beach immediately.
♫ "On my pursuit of happiness, I realized that more means less. If I got love, then I am blessed, oh I know." ♫
2013: THE SATURDAYS, "Disco Love" |

59 · MAROON 5, "Maps"
Weeks on Chart: 10 Weeks
Peak Position: #07
Debut Date: July 12, 2014
It's kind of frustrating seeing how Maroon 5 got over commercialized but no matter what, I always give their singles a try. "Maps" may not be as impressive as their 2000s effort but it's a decent one. Though this one may be a grower, it proved to be another catchy Maroon 5 track.
♫ "So I wonder where were you. All the roads you took came back to me. So I'm following the map that leads to you." ♫

58 · BEFORE YOU EXIT, "Dangerous"
Weeks on Chart: 7 Weeks
Peak Position: #01 (1 Week)
Debut Date: April 5, 2014
After a streak of failed attempts to top the charts, Before You Exit finally scored a #1 with "Dangerous". I am pretty much impressed with Before You Exit's releases, and that even strengthened when this track came out. It was just a perfect pop bop. Despite its uber cheesy lyrics, the delivery was amazing.
♫ "I fell in love with a criminal. She stole my heart and I didn't know. She got me hooked after just a touch." ♫
2013: AUSTIN MAHONE f/ FLO RIDA, "Say You're Just A Friend" |

57 · BEYONCÉ f/ JAY-Z, "Drunk In Love"
Weeks on Chart: 4 Weeks
Peak Position: #01 (1 Week)
Debut Date: April 19, 2014
I was used to Beyoncé's upbeat and soulful releases and they really worked well on me. However, this era seemed to showcase Bey's hip-hop and R&B side which was a struggle for me to appreciate. One of this year's growers. Sadly, this is Bey's final appearance on my list. A flop year for her.
♫ "Last thing I remember is our
beautiful bodies grinding off in that club. Drunk in love." ♫
2013: ELLIE GOULDING, "How Long Will I Love You" |

56 · DJ CASSIDY f/ ROBIN THICKE & JESSIE J, "Calling All Hearts"
Weeks on Chart: 6 Weeks
Peak Position: #03
Debut Date: May 10, 2014
It's incredible to see two equally talented artists collaborating to come up with one of the best funk tracks of 2014. "Calling All Hearts" was an instant favorite not only for its irresistible funky beats but also for the impressive vocals delivered by the artists. Sadly, it got old on me too quick.
♫ "If they're beating tonight, then I'm calling all hearts. You can call in all hearts, yeah. A celebration of love." ♫
2013: JUSTIN BIEBER f/ LUDACRIS, "All Around The World" |
