400 Lux Lorde
Pure Heroine
I don't really know how to describe but I really like this song, especially the pre-chorus.
#9
Just One Yesterday (feat. Foxes) Fall Out Boy
Save Rock and Roll
The addition of Foxes to this song is just wonderful. She goes so well together with Patrick and her verse in the bridge is like a really nice calming moment.
#8
1000 Times Sara Bareilles
The Blessed Unrest
For the most part this song is just a sweet sad song, but then after the bridge everything goes up one notch and it's amazing.
#7
Robbers The 1975
The 1975
A love song that might have some underlying shooting story. And then towards the end he starts screaming and just repeating "you look so cool/cold" which is just really depressing. I hope he said cold though, cos it probably mean the person died or something.
#6
I'm Not Your Hero Tegan and Sara
Heartthrob
I think they work best when they're doing midtempo stuff, like this. This is like typical quality Tegan and Sara stuff, just equipped with a more pop sound, which is great cos it sounds totally radio-ready. I love it during the last part of the song where all the synths just flow everywhere and it feels rather cathartic.
#5
Gypsy Lady Gaga
ARTPOP
Just so so so so good. Gaga needs to do more such personal songs cos they are seriously just beyond awesome. The country rapping at the end>>>>
#4
(One of Those) Crazy Girls Paramore
Paramore
Like I said in my ramble during the Top Album list, this song just makes me wanna dance like some girl in the 60s and that guitar solo is so amazing. And crazy Hayley is so so amazing too.
#3
G.U.Y. Lady Gaga
ARTPOP
Probably Gaga's best production. Starting with that cool spoken intro, then the vocal samples, and then the abrasive electronics. And then the chorus is just so ravey. And let's not forget "NEIN ZEDD!".
#2
Last Hope Paramore
Paramore
One of the few songs that really impacted me. This song just makes me wanna cry but it has such an important message. And they don't deliver it in a cliche or detached way. You could totally hear the pain and drive in Hayley's voice and it really transcends into everyone's heart.
and the number one album track of 2013 is...
How do I even describe this song, it's just so perfect and it just makes me wanna cry all the time. Sara sounds like some ethereal goddess or something and the instrumentals is just so melancholic is makes me feel so sad. And then the chorus hits and you feel like you're just whisked into a crazy swirl of emotions. This song is just seriously too amazing I can't.
But oh well.
It's great.
