Rick's Top 40 Favourite TSC Songs of 2016 (24-21)

TSC group link: http://www.tengaged.com/group/3616

Notes:
- All songs sent in between TSC 226 to 264 are eligible
- This is based on my personal opinion - I mean there's a reason it's MY LIST. Please do not take any offense from what I think of. Strictly my own thoughts
- Contrary to some weird belief, I don't believe that my music taste is better than anyone else's, although I have no idea if it's useful to post that because every year there are some idiots crying about their songs not being appreciated enough. This list is for you all to have some fun and laugh at possible comments I make.
- I also include some of my own entries, but don't worry, I'm not that arrogant to have more than 10 entries about myself

24. Inna - Bad Boys - #CharlieBibi, TSC231, 2nd, 110 pts


The biggest problem of this is definitely the lack of a proper chorus - it's basically a light drop with some computerised voice mumbling. It's a bit of a shame, because this is Inna's best release since "Amazing" which was released in 2009 - almost 8 years ago. The great tropical beat really lifts up an otherwise slightly above average tune - imagine if this song had a similar chord progression to some of the pop songs from Taylor Swift - it definitely would not sound AS GOOD.

23. LP. - Lost On You - #ricktworick1, TSC252, 4th, 88 pts


Last year LP. made it to my top 10 with an extremely anthemic "Tokyo Sunrise," but that song had one huge issue - the vocal olympics get extremely difficult to listen to the more I play that single. While on the first listen the TSC202 winner just sounds spectacular, the more clicks you get on that entry, the more tiring it gets. "Lost On You" takes a completely reverse approach - at first this song just sounds like another formulatic indie-pop tune that just doesn't please you, but the more you listen to it, the better it gets. It has got much more of a replay value than the former tune that I mentioned, and I'm quite sure if I redid my 2015 list, "Tokyo Sunrise" would probably barely scrape into my top 40.

22. Dagny - Backbeat - #Fritzyyyyy, TSC240, 6th, 87 pts


An extremely generic intro honestly gave me a scare that this song would be a typical average pop song - I mean, really - all you could have come up with was "oh whoa ah oh?" Thankfully, this watered-down Avril Lavigne lookalike actually got some good production team behind her back, and "Backbeat" is a simple, yet effective tune with some folk-rock elements within the instrumental that are not heard properly at first, but the more you listen to it, the more you notice those elements, some great guitar riffs and flowing synth used there. Just some of the ingredients to make a high-quality, catchy pop tune.

21. Dami Im - Fighting For Love - #Patrick319, TSC261, 1st, 100 pts


While reading the reviews of this song from some "professional critics"  (emphasis on " "), they mostly bash this song for being lyrical nonsense and cliche, which is to some extent correct, but if you are really that unintelligent to claim that this song does not have a proper, modern buildup, then you should really just find a different job rather than reviewing music - maybe somewhere in the pensioner's house where you can listen to depressing ballads which have no musical value at all. Dami Im's attempt at EDM works here, because she doesn't go too hard with the beats, while maintaining the balance to still make it sound fresh and interesting for the listener.
