I gotta ask, are you just testing if people read the posts on this forum Im just asking, because that just made me be like, "okayyyyyyy" I mean haha if youre really serious then good on you but I just didnt see that coming lol.

[tarkil]

Yeah, I clicked on the link, cause I was curious as to what the best song of the year would sound like, but shit, I was not expecting that.... Are these people famous ?         

[bright lights, big city]

Black coffee doesn't fuck around, he's serious. And agreed, that was not at all what I was expecting.

I did kinda like the song though.

Sorry but I have a strong disdain for Kiesza. She's fairly big here in Canada and her voice is just grating to my ears. If I have to hear that "ooh, ah" part of Hideaway again, I'm going to lose my mind.

[black coffee]

Got to love this 90's eurotechno vibe  and she has an amazing voice. Appreciate it that some of you still clicked the link, even if you don't like the music!

[Crazylegs]

Now make your own damn lists!

[An bád dubh]

Now make your own damn lists!

To be honest, I dont even have a top 3 for this year yet. Its harder and harder to find good new music nowadays. Although I certainly havent checked enough albums this year.

Haha, I gotta say Crazylegs, I did not expect to see Robyn singing on your favorite song of the year. The song was cool though. Have the tastes on this board really changed so much during the last couple of years? Maybe Im the one stuck in the "good old days". I just dont get those vibes from new music, I dont know, I feel like Ive heard it all and the stuff that I havent heard is just not doing it for me.

I have an idea for a new thread which will help me find new music, and others as well. Will open it tonight or tomorrow.

Edit. Im gonna start the thread in 5 minutes.
