We continue with some of the best dance/pop songs of 2016 with a very cool tune and an equally fun video by Chinese newcomer Jane Zhang, with a little help from Timbaland. The lighthearted tune is replete with great vocals and a pleasant, snap your fingers kinda melody. Click play below...you won't be disappointed!
I hope that you are enjoying this month-long look back at the best tunes of the year. I know that I've been reliving the best of 2016 and have been re-enjoying checking them out myself. When the year began, this funkalicious jam by hot artist The Weekend had us all jamming out. So yeah, let's jam...
One of the biggest anthems of the year comes from Joe Jonas and his band DNCE and their debut Cake by the Ocean. Check it out and have a great Hump Day...
One of my favorite tunes of 2016 comes from a singer I know very little about, except his name...and his voice. Earlier in the year, MNEK released a song I immediately LOVED and upon listening to it again this morning, I am sure I'll be listening to it much more later today and in the next few weeks. More Than a Miracle is combination soul/R&B/dance, with a definitive freestyle sound to it. Unfortunately there's no vid for the tune, but you can here it right here...
The year 2016 saw several big name returns to the music scene, including one Britney Spears. Returning to the more dancier, polished side of things compared to her 2013 Britney Jean record, the new Glory album is chock full of dance stuff more reminiscent of the great Femme Fatale album. This jam, the record's debut single, is less of a dancey track and more of a mid-tempo, but splendid tune. Check out Make Me...
I remember hearing this song in the car with my pal Eddie over the summer and I was jamming out while he was saying..I don't get it! I don't have any idea what the hell she's saying! Lol, I got that. I really don't either, but to me it doesn't matter. This song is so unique and fast and funky and cool that I don't really have to know what she's saying for me to like it.
Young Kiiara is just 21 years old and she just put out her debut album, Low Kii Savage, on Atlantic Records in March. This, the debut single, reached all the way to the #13 spot. Not bad, huh? Anyway, here are the lyrics that probably confuse you when you're listening...
Roof is falling let me love me falling I just know [3x]
The five girl group known as Fifth Harmony had a big year in 2016 with their biggest hit to date, Here's the island jam debut hit single off of their second studio album 7/27, Work From Home...
Justin Timberlake returned in 2016 for just one song, from the Trolls movie, and it was an instant hit for its feel-good vibes. Check out Can't Stop the Feeling...
It's the last month of the year, and it's time to start reflecting on the best music of 2016. Though it wasn't the greatest year on record for music, it did have its moments, like this one from Drake, which was, and still is, a groovalicious and infectious jam. Check out One Dance...
