I enjoy all these songs. It is nice to not have to hear Lil Wayne all over.

fun. should've gotten huge with the first album. Some Nights is just not good at all.

Well, congrats to these guys... They probably made about $10 off those numbers! Spotify=RIP OFF for artists.

Spotify is at least a slight deterrent from pirating, so hardly a ripoff, I'd say.

Funny how it's the opposite for me. Love that fun. song immediately and I hated the Gotye song just as immediately. Still do for the both of them, although Some Nights isn't that great of an album.

I have mixed feelings about Call Me Maybe though.

man, I was really hoping "Some Nights" would edge out "We Are Young" by now. I like both, but I feel that "Some Nights" is just so much more noteworthy.

Despite my earlier post, I do agree with this. It's great to have a set of relatively normal and level-headed acts top the charts after years of LWs, Nicki Minaj's, etc.

Come on people you're on Spotify,find new songs and discover new bands.

"Call Me Maybe" is brilliant.

pretty sure I disagree with everything you say usually, but you nailed this one.

that fun song is terribly written
Yeah we are at ends a lot but I'm glad we agree on this one. Even though I hate We Are Young I can at least see how it could be a sing a long anthem or something and it doesn't sound typical to radio. Can't say the same for Some Nights, song just sounds like a mess and parts of it sound like they're deliberately trying to annoy the listener.

I'm coming from the opposite end to that guy in that I think I generally agree with you and think you have good taste but Some Nights is the best song on my AOTY, and pretty close to my favourite song of the year. It's fucking brilliant.

How does "most played song of the year" work when this year isn't over?
