[MaryJaneHolland 77,348]

Not Paper Planes #1

[Bradley 56,788]

Nicki Minaj's Super Bass higher than Bad Romance.

[KatieJudasGaga4 67,907]

How is Bodak Yellow, Call Me Maybe, Super Bass, above Bad Romance and Born This Way? 

[Guest JolanJoringel]

In general: lots of Beyoncé (as expected), lesser Taylor then expected and no 'Green Light' 

[Sunny 12,674]

# 1 M.I.A. - Paper Planes

 

[Fish 6,086]

Single Ladies #3?

This is getting ridiculous.

[MarryTheAngel 551]

Paper Planes getting ha recognition. But Gaga's being paid dust... like forreal.

[joanoflark 3,824]

I don't know what you guys are talking about, M.I.A deserves that number one spot. 

[GypsyBabe 22,836]

That top ten is cringe. I can’t believe they published that in front of my salad. 

 

[Ryusei 60,645]

did they put 200 songs through a random number generator? Also why the F is gimme chocolate in there... the typical "We have something CRAZY AND JAPANESE" pick. Also the amounts of "I'm such a music hipster but not really" picks is astounding lol 

[datlastfam 4,684]

what a joke

[ArtGagaPop 61,940]

what a flop list 

[FfFfFfFF 54,014]

It seems that they compiled that list according to popularity rather than actual quality/ impact.

They should just rename it ''top 200 greatest singles''. 

[BeyerJ 2,160]

 

but the top 10 belong to gagz?
