Dangerous Man

FYI I don't really like any music in the top 100 on iTunes right now. And it's common sense that that sales =/= quality.

and it's common sense that not because some people don't like the song means it has bad quality. Remember when Born This Way got 0 points from one of the critic of Metacritic? Does it proves BTW is a bad album? No, it was just a hate with no logical and constructive reasoning.

Dangerous Man

1 Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Thrift Shop (feat. Wanz) 1.0000

2 will.i.am - Scream & Shout (feat. Britney Spears) 0.5391

3 Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man 0.5234 0.5234

4 Taylor Swift - I Knew You Were Trouble 0.5000

Tay might surpass WIWYM again. I just hope it has longevity in itunes top 10.

I've been hearing Marina and the Diamonds songs on shops and on the radio in my country, i wonder if its just a local thing or if she is getting reconized.

Yet another boring Bruno Mars song getting over recognized. I don't understand why people love his music so much. I mean, it's okay, but that's as far as I'd go. People act like he's some sort of musical God but his songs are extremely generic to the point that they aren't even interesting.

People constantly criticize Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ke$ha, etc. for being generic. Bruno is just as generic, but since he's a male star it's okay. The only song I really enjoyed off of his latest album is Natalie.

Agreed. More than half of her HOT 100 chart leaders are either the ones she's featured in or have others featured with her. Her biggest hits are not entirely by herself, such as Umbrella with Jay Z (7 weeks at #1), Eminem's Love The Way You Lie (7 weeks at #1), We Found Love with Calvin Harris (10 weeks at #1). And what's more striking is that these #1s are the ones that spent the most weeks at the top, compared to her other #1s without any featured artists.

Both 2008's Take A Bow and 2010's Only Girl (In The World) spent only a week at #1. 2008's Disturbia only spent two weeks while 2012's Diamonds spent 3 weeks at the top. 2010's Rude Boy spent 5 weeks at #1, making it her single that spent the most weeks at the top of the HOT 100 chart on her own.

I think Disturbia is Rihanna's greatest song by far tbh! It's so flawless that her new songs can't even compete with it! :worship2:

It's perhaps because S&S is arguably her catchiest single since 2009's 3. I'm not a huge fan of HIAM. I prefer IWG or even TTWE as the lead single for FF. Those two could have spent more weeks at the upper half of the top 10, given the hype and thirst at that time.

I loved Criminal though! :teehee:

That's the point. People tend to like him because he is the "only" mainstream male pop star that actually looks like a man and sings about stuff straight men want to hear. A lot of straight men hate pop music because it is ruled by stupid women singing about seducing another man.

No she's got at least two more singles on RED that are waiting to smash :legend:

She's so boring. Looks like RED is her sell out album.
