The three TSwift songs in the top 15 was a little much, but they redeemed themselves with these picks, many of which have been getting overlooked by others.

How are we going to handle Levitating appearing twice on the same list?

By counting the remixes as separate entries. Henrik can then decide what to do when the site updates.

3 Taylor Swifts songs in Top 15 are definitely overkill and I have always thought the lyrics of "exile" is too cliché.

Yes to "Spotlight" which was criminally overlooked by most music publications. The nerve of Pitchfork to choose the random "What's Your Pleasure?" over "Save A Kiss", "Mirage (Don't Stop)" and the sensational "Remember Where You Are"
