PoshLife 16,843 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I didn't love Feedback but everything else she's put out in the past 2-3 years has been fantastic, especially the Woman album and the Japanese album whose name I CANNOT type  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Outta my outta my outta my head  " I swear JPop has given us some unexpected but really good collabs with Western artists, like Charli XCX and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's* "Crazy Crazy" and Perfume and OK Go's "I Don't Understand You"  *I promise I'm not gonna bring up that time someone spelled it "Kary Payme Payme" which was like four years ago at this point  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUtterfield 8 38,477 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Y’all better be making a list of the best Kpop songs of the decade I’m going to try to do 100 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshLife 16,843 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) I didn't even get into kpop until 2014 so I feel very unqualified to do that lol also I feel like my favorite songs now are the same as my favorite songs from like three years ago - Catallena, Love is Energy, Expectation, Airplane, Hair Short... I don't think anything that came out in the past two years would even make my top 40. Edit: I will have a ranking for 2019 though Edited November 30, 2019 by PoshLife Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopReaper 2,122 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) I wrote a Top 20 list for my favorite singles of the decade + my Top 20 b-sides a couple of weeks ago, but I forgot to save it and lost it  Will rewrite it tho Tried to limit it to 1 song per artist (allowing for an exception or two) so it wouldn't be just a bunch of SHINee/LOONA/Red Velvet/f(x) singles & b-sides ddddd Will try and make a (shorter) list for my favorite J-Pop songs too Edited November 30, 2019 by PopReaper Fun Fact: The K in KPop stands for "Kate Bush" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshLife 16,843 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Hmm I could definitely do like a "favorite song from each artist this decade" sort of thing. That would be hard though, like how would I pick just one BoA song or just one Taeyeon song. As of this week, I now have 25 English songs that I liked this year, so I'm gonna do a top 25 for kpop, jpop, and epop. I'll post them on 12/31 lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoshLife 16,843 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Okay this is it. I'm ready to share my P-Cubed ranking. It's not perfect- especially in the middle third, there could definitely be some shuffling around - but I really can't keep listening to these songs to try and order them or it'll ruin them for me Here's my definitive Perfume ranking: Spoiler 1. Spending All My Time 2. Dream Fighter 3. Tokyo Girl 4. Nananananairo 5. Electro World 6. Pick Me Up 7. FLASH 8. Chocolate Disco 9. One Room Disco 10. Star Train 11. Polyrhythm 12. DISPLAY 13. MY COLOR 14. edge (⊿-mix) 15. Spring of Life 16. Laser Beam 17. Magic of Love (Album-mix) 18. 1mm 19. Natural ni Koishite 20. Fushizen na Girl 21. Mugen Mirai 22. love the world 23. Cling Cling 24. Let Me Know 25. Sweet Refrain 26. Future Pop 27. If You Wanna 28. Relax in the City 29. Daijobanai 30. Hurly Burly 31. I still love U 32. NIGHT FLIGHT 33. FAKE IT 34. Challenger 35. Computer City 36. Secret Secret 37. Perfect Star Perfect Style 38. Linear Motor Girl 39. Everyday 40. Hold Your Hand 41. VOICE 42. Kasuka na Kaori 43. Baby Cruising Love 44. SEVENTH HEAVEN 45. Mirai no Museum 46. GAME 47. Nee 48. Spice 49. Macaroni 50. STORY 51. FUSION 52. Party Maker And here's the ranking with some annotations cuz y'all know I have lots of opinions on things: Spoiler 1. Spending All My Time (This is the song that started my love affair with Perfume; it'll always be #1 even if there are other songs I stan a bit more at any give moment) 2. Dream Fighter 3. Tokyo Girl 4. Nananananairo 5. Electro World (I only discovered this while listening to P-Cubed, and holy crap it's amazing. Definitely the best song from their early years.) 6. Pick Me Up 7. FLASH (This could have been a few higher, but there's something wrong with the audio mixing - especially in the last chorus you can barely hear their voices over the noisy instrumental. This was really the start of Nakata's "my instrumentals are more important than anything else" era and it shows.) 8. Chocolate Disco 9. One Room Disco 10. Star Train 11. Polyrhythm 12. DISPLAY 13. MY COLOR (This was a surprise. I'd never heard this song before and I really love it. Kind of interesting that I rank it so much higher than very similar songs like Secret Secret and Spice, but something about it just clicks. I could have placed it even higher but I wanted to correct for the fact that there's a definite novelty bias here, since the song is new to me.) 14. edge (⊿-mix) (This is also a surprise - I usually never go for these gigantic long complextro pieces (you'll see the other ones are at the very bottom of the ranking), but I really like this one. I think Nakata really perfected the buildup-payoff dynamic with this one, since the three-minute mark is so triumphant, and then the breakdown at 5:34 is f*cking magical.) 15. Spring of Life (I never like this song until I start playing it and then I really like it.) 16. Laser Beam 17. Magic of Love (Album-mix) (This would have ranked significantly higher if it had been the single version. The album mix doesn't really work for me.) 18. 1mm 19. Natural ni Koishite 20. Fushizen na Girl 21. Mugen Mirai (Everything from here to Computer City still feels really tentative - these are songs I enjoy fine but don't usually reach for, and I had a lot of trouble placing them relative to each other. Mugen Mirai I like more than the other FUTURE POP "no real chorus" songs like Let Me Know and Future Pop, especially for the final minute.) 22. love the world 23. Cling Cling (This song would have ranked a lot higher if it was the album mix! One of the few Perfume songs where I like the album mix more than the original.) 24. Let Me Know 25. Sweet Refrain 26. Future Pop 27. If You Wanna 28. Relax in the City 29. Daijobanai 30. Hurly Burly 31. I still love U 32. NIGHT FLIGHT 33. FAKE IT (Kind of funny this song is so close to the middle of the ranking, since it's half-good song and half-pointless noise.) 34. Challenger (Definitely the weakest of the three post-FUTURE POP releases. Saisei would have ranked much higher than this.) 35. Computer City 36. Secret Secret 37. Perfect Star Perfect Style 38. Linear Motor Girl 39. Everyday 40. Hold Your Hand (I still don't understand why this was included.) 41. VOICE 42. Kasuka na Kaori 43. Baby Cruising Love 44. SEVENTH HEAVEN 45. Mirai no Museum(I don't really like this song but whenever I listen to it it occurs to me that it actually sounds like a museum, like I feel like I should be looking at fine art and sculptures while it's playing lol.) 46. GAME 47. Nee 48. Spice 49. Macaroni 50. STORY (This is kind of cool and has some good moments but it just can't compare to their actual songs. With the ecxeption of "edge" all of what I consider their "non-songs" went at the bottom by default.) 51. FUSION 52. Party Maker  1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
