THIS WEEK'S EDITOR-IN-CHIEF'S CHOICE

The Charli vote was tough, trying to game out which song had the best chance to win. I think I literally voted, "the entire brat album but if I have to pick one song let it be the one with the most votes (and if that doesn't count then Von Dutch)". The funny thing is Von Dutch isn't even my favorite, but I didn't think it was likely Sympathy is a Knife or Everything is Romantic would be in contention. No squabbles here, that top four is very clearly SOTS 2024. | |

They need to do more marketing.
The Weeknd might just be the most universally liked artist for people my age. In my age demographic (I'm 16), I’ve never met a person who dislikes his music, and most people my age have him in at least one of their playlists. Taylor Swift might statistically be more popular, but it’s quite easy for me to find haters of her music.
I’d say The Weeknd is liked for good reason. He’s never really made a bad album in his career, and I’d say that all of his songs that will appear on this column are good (helped by the fact that Earned It didn’t make it to number one, that song’s a 5). He consistently gets universal acclaim, which is rare for an artist as big as he is (he’s still number one on Spotify despite the fact that he hasn’t released an album in two years).
Can’t Feel My Face is an amazing song. Many people have said that the song sounds like Micheal Jackson (which isn’t a bad thing). The song is also great to dance to and more energetic than the vast majority of The Weeknd songs (probably because it’s about being high on coke). The production is one of Max Martin’s best and complements the whole vibe of the song. The lyrics are about Coke but, as Tom said, it’s quite easy for them to fly over your head (I didn’t know this song was about Coke until 2 or 3 years ago). All in all, this song is a 10.
I'm also quite embarrassed about the fact that I didn't know who The Weeknd was until quite a while after this song was released (I learned about him around 2019), even though I knew this song when it was released.
Also, the Sing cover of this song is atrocious (just like their covers of A Sky Full of Stars or Shake it Off).
It's a 9. As in, "How can this song possibly be nine years old?
Yikes. Does time absolutely fly, or what?
Fuck Elon Musk, fuck conservative Christianity. May they all rot in whatever hell they believe in.
Christians who are racist, homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic or anything else don’t deserve to have their beliefs respected. Fuck their beliefs. Die painfully.
Have some critical thinking you goddamn brain dead goatfucking hillbilly scumbags.
tie-dye shirt + two drummers + mostly unknown material in the setlist = yep they're a jam band now
Elon Musk being interviewed by Jordan Peterson - hell is real.
Nothing compares to Naboo
Of all the ways that Elmo is a piece of shit, his conduct toward the offspring he's sired and their mothers may just be the most contemptible. It's almost impressive, because the competition is intense.
