Non-Urban Music Song of the year?

[Sebastian]

That might be true. Although i have no idea how this is possible with this song.

However, song of the year goes usually to the most popular one of the last year. Hence it doesnt matter that you, one out of 1 million people, didnt like it :nuts:

I'm special.

Might be my favorite song of the year.

For the record Seb, 'Fireflies' was #1 in the US billboard for a few weeks, is still in the Top 3, and is one of the biggest selling songs of the year.

It's also had 17 million plays on YouTube, which is very impressive, considering that the Black Eyed Peas song 'I Gotta Feeling' has had the most radio play of the year and was #1 on Billboard for something like 12 weeks, and only has 16 million YouTube plays. Both videos are the official uploads hosted by Universal Records.

So it could be said that from a popularity point of view, 'Fireflies' is the biggest song of the year. I was just in the US for 2 weeks myself and it was playing all the time on the radio, I heard it more than any other song, although the Jason Derulo song was a close second.

Good to know that I'm not the only person that likes this song. Nobody I know likes it, but I'm really feeling it, something about it just resonates.

Me too, I only heard of them when I just recently was in the US because 'Fireflies' was all over the radio.

I think thats an urban legend, you know like a ducks quack has no echo?..

 

[Duke]

Given the amount of people that like this song, I'm afraid the amount of pussy-men is also on the rise.

Fags (yes, as in cigarettes).

Go listen to some Ted Nugent then, macho man.

 

[Stone_Cold]

I cant really think of a non hip hop song that really stood out for me this year, well none that were released this year anyway.

So I'll go for this one

Your song of the year got a trashing on Pitchfork. lol

I've never looked at this site before. I don't know how relevant it is, given that.

 

[S O F I]

The site's track and album reviews can make or break artists lol. They're very relevant and influential.

have their damn own music festival.

They're more focused on the indie/alternative side, but damn, no excuse for not knowing about them.

 

[Flipmo]

They is poop Sofi.

 

[Stred]

Sweet Disposition is a great song too
