Name an ARTIST and I’ll tell you their BEST SONG

[ButterTart]

What's yours?

That, Alone or Massachusetts.

 

[funky]

Kylie Minogue

I am curious about other opinions on this one

Such a vast catalogue with lots of different eras

 

[funky]

That, Alone or Massachusetts.

Massachusetts was under consideration for best song.

I also had You Win Again under consideration for my fave.

Was never a massive fan but put the Ultimate Collection on and I'd have happily take at least half of them.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

is this a TEST?

I did Dannii at the start.

What would yours be?

At the end of the day Who Do You Love Now still does things to me, no man could ever.

 

[RJN]

My favorite is Your Disco Needs You

does best mean most critically acclaimed? Can’t Get You Out of my Head? It’s not my favorite but it’s a classic

 

[ButterTart]

Well, it’s hard to break a habit.

 

[RJN]

Also, you didn’t ask Miguel, but while Adorn is great, I think that Sure Thing, Use Me, and Do You are even better

 

[funky]

My favorite is Your Disco Needs You

does best mean most critically acclaimed? Can’t Get You Out of my Head? It’s not my favorite but it’s a classic

Well yeah but still your opinion. Like what do you think is her most accomplished moment, it may not be your favourite though. We're alloweed to like the basic stuff

Like Madonna's Holiday. 17/10 record. Not her best moment IMO.

But it can also be the same thing

 

[funky]

Also, you didn’t ask Miguel, but while Adorn is great, I think that Sure Thing, Use Me, and Do You are even better

All of those are 11/10 songs. Do You... in particular is fuck off sensational. But Adorn is... well it's one of my favourite songs of all time.

Don't have to ask, everyone should join in I'm just the starting point

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Kylie's most accomplished moment... probably Confide In Me... if accomplished means making her an international megastar then Can't Get You Out of My Head... personally The One.

 

[ButterTart]

From an outsider’s perspective, Can’t Get You Out of My Head is THE Kylie song. It always impressed me that she managed to totally redefine her brand with a single song.

 

[funky]

I did have CGYOOMH under consideration, it's impossible to ignore, but something tells me it hasn't aged as well as Confide In Me. Not sure why. Maybe overplay?

Either way, What Do I Have To Do is interesting to me... it's the sort of epic pop song very much of its era that you'd expect to date. But it seems to have gotten even better with age. There's an underlying darkness and intensity to the song that gives it so much depth. I love a DANCE SONG WITH DEPTH!

 

[RJN]

Well yeah but still your opinion. Like what do you think is her most accomplished moment, it may not be your favourite though. We're alloweed to like the basic stuff

Like Madonna's Holiday. 17/10 record. Not her best moment IMO.

But it can also be the same thing

i think it’s Can’t Get You... still then. Like @ButterTart said, it’s just her MOMENT

 

[funky]

i think it’s Can’t Get You... still then. Like @ButterTart said, it’s just her MOMENT

and it deserves credit for being her MOMENT more than ten years into her career.

 

[RJN]

“Dance song with depth” is probably the reason my favorite Dannii song is Disremembrance

 

[Tisch]

Anyone else keep singing this thread to the tune of See which flavor you like and I'll have it for you. I blame @Suedey

 

[Jark]

favourite - Anytime You Need A Friend
best - We Belong Together (maybe)

this is interesting! I can see why WBT would be many a gays' favourite (BILLBOARD SONG OF THE DECADE NEVER FORGET) but I think countless other of her hits are superior from a songwriting/production pov (and therefore "objectively" "better").

I found trying to consider Mariah's 'best song' actually very difficult!

Her best anthems are actually quite safe/simple records production wise. Not that that is a BAD thing. I'd also consider The Roof because that's far from safe. And I certainly prefer it.

 

[Marilyn]

"Free Me" is absolutely lovely

I still haven't forgiven her for covering "Take My Breath Away" though

As is to be expected for an artist of her high integrity level, her Take My Breath Away is an original

 

[Frozen]

Marvin Gaye/Diana Ross/Stevie Wonder please

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Living for @funky dropping content like it's 2008.

fuck off really

I’ve probably made this mistake before then...

 

[funky]

Marvin Gaye/Diana Ross/Stevie Wonder please

favourite - Inner City Blues
best - What’s Goin On

favourite - Upside Down
best - Love Hangover

(aside - how good is Muscles though? Ridiculous song but so catchy)

(aside x2 - special mention for the lesser known Take Me Higher)

favourite - Superstition
best - As

 

[funky]

NAR: I didn’t know Muscles was written by Michael Jackson until recently

 

[POP!]

There's no way I can do the last 2 but Mandy's "Candy" was a bop at the time.

Britney:

Favourite - I'm A Slave 4 U
Best - probably Toxic but I'm hesitant because she barely exists on the song. Otherwise, Gimme More.

I challenge you to listen to Jessica’s “Walkin’ Round in a Circle” from her 2006 album. It samples Fleetwood Mac and does it surprisingly well! Not sure any of her other output is for you.
I appreciate the ever so faint Brit praise.

I'm so here for @funky content be it 2008, 2018 and hopefully 2028.

Are you sure you don't mean Simply Red?

Not unless Mick Hucknell has had surgery to make himself look gorgeous

 

[Devil]

I don’t think our Brit was there for the recording of Gimme More either.

Steps please

 

[funky]

I don’t think our Brit was there for the recording of Gimme More either.

Steps please

the only one I can tolerate is Heartbeat!

but objectively Deeper Shade Of Blue is a bit of an anthem....

 

[funky]

Belinda Carlisle

Not to discount a pretty decent catalogue but "Heaven Is A Place On Earth" is next level and a genuine pop classic

 

[BoysForSeles]

Ms Jaki Graham

 

[funky]

Are you sure you don't mean Simply Red?

Well why not then!

Holding Back The Years, but special mentions for Money's Too Tight To Mention, It's Only Love and You've Got It.

 

[funky]

Ms Jaki Graham

Favourite - You Can Count On Me For Love

Best - Heaven Knows (this song is vastly underrated in terms of influencing future R&B singers)

Special Mention - From Now On

 

[funky]

I challenge you to listen to Jessica’s “Walkin’ Round in a Circle” from her 2006 album. It samples Fleetwood Mac and does it surprisingly well! Not sure any of her other output is for you.

Just listened and it is indeed a nice bop. Not a fan of her voice though. Song like that and I'm waiting for Stevie Nicks to come in with a nice deep growl...
