ooh, i haven't heard a decent amount of songs on this list so i'm looking forward to checking those out.

love seeing sf9 at number two! also, this cracked me up: Wendy's vocals get to shine in the verses, Seulgi slays the choreography like always, Joy stuns with her visuals, Yeri shines charisma and Irene raps.

Did i lie!!?
Lol i had to edit the list :p but its all good now

[mayjailer]

it's a great list! i also meant to mention how much i love "whatever." idk how i happened to hear it, but i would love to find more songs with that sound.

Honestly, my judgment might've been corrupted by watching over and over Taeyang fan cams of this song (look for it, you won't regret it)
His fan cams live rent free in my mind and prompts me to re-watch it at least once a month lmao

[moheetoe]

They are sooo mesmerizing, the hip moves, the crop tops.... D:
I'm weak

I like Love So Sweet because whenever I hear it brings me back to early last year when I still believed 2021 could be better than 2020 HA

The only other song I remember really liking last year was 0x1=LOVESONG

[moheetoe]

Txt put out great music last year

My fav Kpop song last year

[off_daze]

I really like this song. I had never heard of him before so I did a deep dive and read about the silly drama between him and STAYs.

[mattxmatt]

His debut mini album is very solid. All the drama, rumors and false accusations between him and STAYs are just sad actually because that's one of the main reasons why idols took their lives.

This song is like one of my top 10 songs of the year, but I can’t say a word because half my mutuals don’t like him. But he’s got such a strong voice and the choreo for this song coupled with the outfit he’s wearing look so beautiful.

OP, if you loved the noise that is savage, then you better be stanning WA DA DA!!!!

[moheetoe]

I didn’t vote for Yujin/XiaoTing like crazy to not Stan them!!! The blonde girls though… 🤫

Hook me up with a XiaoTing icon 😭 I tried to make one from a Dazed photo shoot gif but I’m not savvy enough

[juanitatequila]

lmao we didn't suffer through girls planet 999 for 12 weeks and vote using that god awful universe app FOR THEM TO FLOP!!!!!!! xiaoting looks like she's heading towards being a co-center but i'm a little worried for yujin she had like 2 lines in wa da da :'( mvsk/shine had much better line distribution so i'm a little hopeful it'll work out for yujin in the end.

dayeon is warming up on me i really liked her verse on wa da da. bahi...i wish ha the best.

i made some back up xiaoting icons, feel free to use them if you want! (i ended up going for her mvsk performance look for my xiaoting icon, she looked FLAWLESS in that performance video!)

[moheetoe]

MVSK is soooo much better and I’m scared for Yujin too :(
Im glad she’s in the group but on how hard we were all rooting for her I wanted her to shine more.
Dayeon…I just can’t, and I know It’s not her fault but that editing totally made me dislike her.
Bahi needs some more years of training :/
