Amy’s Top50 Songs of 2011
10. Sunny Hill – Midnight Circus
Actually, I really surprised myself here. I thought Brown Eyed Girls would have cracked my Top10 songs, but alas… that spot was taken by Sunny Hill. It has nothing to do with the album. The song has inexplicably stayed with me — might be the simple guitar, or the infectious instrumentation. Anyway, it’s stuck in my head whenever it doesn’t need to be. I literally burst out into song saying “MID-NITE CIR-CUS” out of the blue. [1]
9. Andrea Echeverri – Que me Parta un Rayo [YouTube]
8. Evelyn Evelyn – Have You Seen my Sister Evelyn? [YouTube] [1]
7. Adele – Rumor Has It
I didn’t know this one didn’t come out as a single, but I did love it the first time I ever listened to it. You do know I love tongue in cheek and crazy lyrics at times, and I love them catchy beats. Adele’s got it all! [Xiami]
Damn you and you fucking lists! Now I also want to do this! But thing is I have my Kpop list (btw, cus u did 50 here I am so doing 50 in that list) I don’t know man… gah!
@Julyssa, if you have 50 Kpop songs without repeat artists, go ahead. I just don’t want to see 3 or 4 2NE1 tracks in one list coz that’d be effing unfair xD I can’t wait when you give me your full thoughts on my pick songs though hahaha.
Btw, I’m listening to all of Mana-chan’s album. It’s… not bad actually. But then again, how can someone effin hate an album that’s called Happy Smile! xD
@amy, I think there’s only one artist that got a repeat and that is really cus I can’t pick between his two songs. All other are pretty much a-okay.
You need to explain this Mana-chan hate cus for the love of me I don’t understand. What’s going on?
@Julyssa, like I told you- there’s a lot of people voting negative online. For the love of me, I don’t know how could anyone vote down one of her videos. LOL
Are you gonna do a just Kpop list?
@amy, Haters, really. I mean, she is the cutest child ever!
I don’t know man. Like if I where to do this list almost of the songs I have on my Kpop list would end up here… haha I shall think about it. I think this is a more fun list. My Kpop list is giving me an ulcer!
@amy, Excessive happiness can be a major turn-off in the same way depressing stuff turns off shiny, happy people, lol.
Listened to the song and it didn’t do anything for me.
@Rodrigo, I’ll be seeing you dancing in a few days hahaha
@amy, Haven’t listened to all the tracks here yet (lazyness), but I’d remove the Mana Ashida song and/or Britney’s (or Beyonce) and replace them with Little Black Submarines (Black Keys) or Black (Danger Mouse feat. Norah Jones). Dunno if I would ever make a 2011 ranking of songs, but I would manage to somehow include the 2NE1 song if I ever got into doing a delayed ranking.
@Rodrigo, I can help with that. It’s only missing track 44. And tracks 2 + 4 have been removed from the database for god knows why.
Once again, I am only familiar with the 2NE1 song, I AM THE BEST :P
That’s what I get for only listening to soundtracks (of any media, whether it is movies, series, anime or videogames) and folkloric music of the world :P
@Mirella, time to catch up then ;) plus, I can totally see you singing SOSEJI is the Best LOL
I’m glad you put Florence in your countdown but I think Ceremonials has better songs than Shake It Out, for example What the Water Gave Me or Breaking Down but it’s your list.
Btw, I just realize that you are, what we call in San Francisco, a straight up hipster.
@Antoinette Barton, why am I a hipster? More than 75% of the list is popular music… if anyone is a hipster here, it’s you ;P
Hi,
I love your list! So many of my favorite artists on there!
(Singer Sen, Stefanie Sun, Shang Wenjie, Evelyn Evelyn, Brown Eyed Girls, Tokyo Jihen, St. Vincent, 2ne1, Björk, Amanda Palmer, Kaela Kimura, After School, Marit Larsen, Those Dancing Days, Jane Zhang, Cœur de Pirate) !!!
@Eri, variety is the flavor of life! ;P
Love your taste in music~
@amy, agreed! Looking forward to your 2013 list!
@Eri, it’s working out… ;P
