The sigh of relief when I saw Taylor wasn't #1, and its a woman of color too? I was expecting it lmao.

Even with her perpetual messiness, I'll take an M.I.A. banger any day of the week over Taylor.

I wish M.I.A. wasn't such a shitweasel so I could go back to loving her.

zoaster_toaster July 31 2018, 00:39:36 UTC

She's certainly a Problematic Fave(TM), and I saw this piece encompassing a lot of my feels on her:

a few months ago i interviewed M.I.A onstage about her new movie. it's where i also asked her about her anti-black comments about BLM. i've been thinking a lot, since then, about how we hold the people we love accountable, esp when they're not white: https://t.co/gEsPOghjXr

Single Ladies though? Crazy In Love or Formation would make more sense. Single Ladies gave Beyoncé an iconic career moment but the song itself isn't that great.

numbedtoe July 31 2018, 01:36:46 UTC

even Independant Women would have been better. Bey get a credit, and the list gets to really drive home a feminist anthem. even if it was a tie in, idgaf.

mte i just associate it with drunk bachelorettes now

runitsjess July 31 2018, 05:48:24 UTC

All 3 made the list

Lana Del Rey, "Video Games" (13)

as a stan, her?.gif

out of all the songs, really ?

rhapsodeeinblue July 31 2018, 00:32:26 UTC

Ooh I'm glad Lana's on the list but yeah if they're gonna go with her early singles Blue Jeans > Video Games (and if Born to Die era in general then Summertime Sadness was my instant fave)

bluedjinns July 31 2018, 00:32:43 UTC

What would you choose instead? I'm not a stan, but I still love Ride and Off to the Races.

lipsticktraces July 31 2018, 00:39:05 UTC

Ahahah genuinely, either Ride or Off to the Races would be ok for me. I'd probably choose On Our Way (but it's a personal favorite) or Young and Beautiful. I'm a huge fan of Paradise, so Ride, Bel Air, Cola, National Anthem

or truly, even Born to Die would be better lol.
