We will be back in January. Have a wonderful rest of the year.
I really love Dreams And Nightmares as number two.
Glad the Paramore song hung on to stay in 1st… I really like that song.
For those who may be interested, some of my favorite singles of this year came from a couple of still relatively unknown newcomers of 2013: ÁLI and Nicole Sabouné. (Well, Nicole Sabouné’s first single technically came out in 2012.) I recommend checking them out! (It might be kinda hard to find ÁLI just based on that name, so to make things easier, one of her songs is called “Cocoon.”)
See ya next year! Happy holidays!
wait… is this a Lim Kim reference?
I just noticed that too.
Yay Fiona and yay Sarah!
This was a pretty great year for music.
Yaaaaay my song made it! I’m so excited!
That Paramore song at the top is a disgrace.
Merry Christmas to you too!
Even crap-ass comments like Thomas’s are meeeeeee ooooooooo
