Alright guys.. It's time for the finale! My top 10 songs of 2013...
10.
Little Mix - Move
This song is so quirky, it literally makes my body convulse and move around against my will. There is something just so catchy about it, amazing vocals, great video. A pop masterpiece.
9.
Avicii - Wake Me Up
No list would be complete without this song. It's kicked off the current trend in country/dance songs like Timber etc. This is legitimately the biggest most well known song of the year. Even though it's overplayed, it's excellent.
8.
Lady Gaga - Applause
A controversial choice? I don't care. It may not be up to her usual standard but I really love this song, it's not an instant hit, but it's grown on me so much. #justiceforartpop
7.
Duke Dumont - Need U 100% (feat. A*M*E)
I saw A*M*E perform this live at my local ghey club, I got on stage and danced with her, whilst dressed as Britney Spears (I was very drunk, let's move on from this story)... Anyway, she slayed and this song was an underrated gem in 2013. Let's relive the simple slayage.
6.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Can't Hold Us
This song is great, no Macklemore hate in this countdown please! This is the song which gets in your head and refuses to leave, a great party tune. Love it
5.
Naughty Boy - La La La (feat. Sam Smith)
The hit which came out of nowhere to dominate 2013. Nobody saw this one coming, it's cute childish charm and smooth dance beat managed to win over us all. My nephew calls it the La La song with scary video people, aw.
4.
Rudimental - Waiting All Night (feat. Ella Eyre)
I can't think of anything to say - it's amazing. Listen, love, love love love, listen.. NOW.
3.
Iggy Azalea - Work
My gurl did it. She really did it. An amazing lead single, amazing video. I'm so proud of her, one of the best of 2013, truly.
2.
Calvin Harris & Alesso - Under Control (feat. Hurts)
More HURTS! + Calvin A match made in HEAVEN. It came late in 2013 but it stormed right up my list and almost snatched that #1. It's perfection, it's still on repeat on my playlist. It's gonna dominate my first quarter of 2014 too, legends!
1.
Katy Perry - Walking On Air
And here we are... My PERSONAL #1 of 2013.
Anyone that knows me, knows I love a bit of camp. Kylie, Cher, Madonna... This song is gay, in all the right ways. I know y'all will probably drag me for this but oh well, it's my countdown I adore 90's music, especially house. I play my 90's house playlist multiple times a week, I sit through VH1 special countdowns about 90's house... I work in a bar which has a damn 90's themed night where they play all the classics! This song is made up of everything I love, it has the camp Kylie influences, the classic 90's house, the dance factor, great (surprising right) vocals.. If this isn't a single i'll meltdown.
Thank you everyone for sticking with me for my first ever countdown (!) - can't believed I managed to drag out one countdown this long But it was fun! Glad I got to share my taste with y'all Here is my full list...
