Woah!

And how apt that the only 1/2 double ups are Justin and his mentor Usher


Update: checked the old lists, two more did a 1/2 double up... Elvis and The Beatles.

Five if you count the Andy Gibb / Bee Gees 1/2 in 78

So this was one of the biggest hits of the decade and this is maybe the fourth time I've heard it, and it's still not grabbing me. Dunno what everyone else heard that I'm missing. Maybe it'll arrive someday

2016 #4:

Double up Drake! Wow 1/2 followed by a 3/4

Oh yeah this song WORKS!

@Phoebe

As someone who has seen them twice in concert, it is an affront to everything I stand for that I was not ated by Pete.

All the same, I'm surprised they actually got one. I didn't realize they were that big.

@Kyle sorry!

TOO LATE! TOO LATE!

...

too late?

...

I too have seen them in concert! And I was afraid of heights at that time and did it anyway! Still afraid of heights but it's a lot better now. But that's not the point. The point is they started to suck and I don't know if they always sucked and I just couldn't see it before or if they had a really lucky confluence of musical forces that allowed them to achieve greatness and then just as quickly squander it. Puzzles.

But let's get back to Drake and one dance. I think it's important that you have a certain self-loathing attraction to Drake in order to fully appreciate his music. Like he's definitely a disgusting creep and I wouldn't let him within 20 ft of me or 6 miles of my kids, but he has that sexy voice matched with a musical style and genre that showcases it beautifully.

No recollection.

Same. Good tho!

Aloha!

Ciao!

Can't get past the name

2016 #9:

I’ve heard of him.

Don't feed the trolls

2016 #10:

Can't get past the name

They’re also real tools

2016 #11:

Fun video. Similar to the Dani California video, chronicling thr history of dance... an interesting it stops 20 years before current trends

Also a tool.

2016 #12:

Ugh. Obnoxious.

I wonder if that's the last Rihanna appearance, at least solo. Her hiatus starts around here and continues today

2016 #15:

I don't remember Bob Dylan touching his thumb to his mouth so much.

Update: confirmed




Update 2: Allen Ginsberg more distracting than ever

Update 3: It seems it was the remix that was the hit

Yeah- it was the dance/remix that got all the radio airplay.

Don't remember the song, and there were several versions on Youtube, and Wikipedia didn't call it out as being a remix, so I picked what looked like the video for the original song rather than one of the remixes. Oh well. Moving on.

More like, Weren't Even Born When Summer School Released Starring Superstar Actor Mark Harmony! Amiright?

2016 #17:

Technically a feature, my prediction still stands.

Just kidding, no one watching this without context would think this isn't her song

Agreed.

2016 #18:

Ugh. Am I a Joe Jonas fan? These songs of the summer with their happy vibe and fun bass lines, I dunno, is it like cake by the ocean ya ya huh?

2016 #19:

This is a weird formulaic time of music for me.

2016 #20:

Yeah. Good. It just makes me sad.

Btw, 2016 was the start of the "Music Music Music" thread
https://www.nerdprideradio.com/nerds/vi ... 8707113853
which looks kinda sad with all the music stripped out. First mention of 21 pilots was October 28th by "Elle"
