17. Iggy Azalea, featuring Charli XCX - Fancy - 4
Looking at the timing, I think this was Charli's breakthrough song? Feels like an embarassing footnote now.

Eight to go... 55. Future - Pluto (2012) - 5 Overall a fine listen, and makes for decent background noise. The lyrics I understood weren't super original (oh my god, this rapper wants to be Tony Montana? How novel) but the songs had some good flow and I do enjoy Future's voice. The album never did a...

8. My Morning Jacket – I Will Be There When You Die - 7 I really enjoy the singer's voice in this. 9. Swans – When Will I Return - 8 This owns, what a great build-up. I like the way Swans often use a very slow but loud beat to create a sense of dread. Like giant footsteps. 10. The Beatles – Being fo...

5. Blood, Sweat & Tears – God Bless the Child - 6
Lots of good points but never quite grabs me, not even the surprise jazz breakdown halfway through.
6. Courtney Barnett – Debbie Downer - 9
This, Pedestrian and Elevator Operator are my favourites from this album, bangers all.

2. Anderson .Paak, featuring ScHoolboy Q – Am I Wrong - 7
Could have been a bit boring but the ScHoolboy feature followed by the trumpet drop at the end allowed this song to do enough to be liked by me.

1. Cryoshell, featuring Budapest Art Orchestra – Gravity Hurts - 5 My neurons activated seeing that we're starting this game with a Bionicle song, but sadly it's from after I grew out of them. I fondly remember the first movie. This song is fine, I prefer the older alt-rock version which would be a ...

Y'know, I questioned this being an 'Overlooked' song when it was nominated for the poll. But yeah with that number of votes it clearly is.
