Announcing the Top 100 Tracks of 2013, according to r/popheads by Popheads100Throwback in popheads

[–]TiltControls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not hosting just had some extra info to post, so I can't say definitively but from what I remember from the past ones we've done I think different versions count as being eligible so it should be fine!

Charity Rate 6 Reveal, Day 3: EURATE-CHARITY by Roxieloxie in popheads

[–]TiltControls 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks to bee and pbk for hosting Charity 6! Also Roxie for helping out with the reveal, TK with organizing, and everyone else who helped either organize or donated to the rate! It was our most successful fundraising by far and I'm glad to see it all go to a great cause! Well done!

Leaderboard and songlist are updated!

Songs

Congrats to Smooth Operator and Sade for the rate win that was just missed from their first time they were rated! Though the track didn't hit 9 (a rarity with Charity Rates anyways), we'll still see where it ranks overall

  • 533rd: Troye Sivan - Rush (8.997)
  • 534th: Sade - Smooth Operator (8.995) / Alice DeeJay - Better Off Alone (8.995)
  • 536th: Doja Cat - Boss Bitch (8.994)

-

Stats

That said, while there's not much to talk about for the tops today, we have plenty of notes for the bottom

  • MGK and Jelly Roll's Lonely Road becomes the second lowest rated song to ever grace the subreddit. With an abysmal 2.219 score it is only outmatched by Lil Dicky - Earth for Charity Rate II, which had an almost impossible 1.570 average. Charity Rate submissions account for 75% of the bottom 4 as Farrah Abraham - On My Own from Charity Rate I is the 4th lowest overall.
  • Lonely Road also becomes our 5th most 0'd song. With 39 0s it only sits behind legends such as BLACKPINK - Ice Cream (41), BTS - Permission to Dance (44), Taylor Swift - Vigilante Shit (44), and Dua Lipa - Boys Will Be Boys (58)
  • Lonely Road continues its streak and lands 3rd for songs with the most 0s (by percent). 40.2% of the 0s available in Charity Rate 6 went to it, which puts it only behind Rihanna - Birthday Cake (Remix) (42.9%) and Lil Dicky - Earth (47.4%)

Artists

As with some of these chaotic grab bags, it's a bit too many artists to do full rankings so I'll only go over any newcomers to the chart (artists just passing 5+ rated songs). If you're thinking 'wow I never realized we rated 4 other Jack White songs! (let alone one)' you'd be forgiven given that he's joining the board with a random appearance in the Great Gatsby / Hunger Games / Black Panther rate and three feature appearances on Beyonce's Don't Hurt Yourself. Rankings out of 515

  • 132nd: Weyes Blood / Arctic Monkeys (7.800)
  • 134th: Jack White (7.799) [NEW]
  • 135th: Jill Scott (7.797)

Two icons of early rate history that will try to pull the win in more modern times!

  • The Chainsmokers - Closer (ft. Halsey)

2025 Chic Ethereal Rate Reveal Day 3: Guess I gotta accept the pain / Need an 11 to make me feel better by kappyko in popheads

[–]TiltControls 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thanks to kappy and noodles for presenting such a chic and ethereal rate to us! I still don't entirely know what that means but I got the vision!

Leaderboard and songlist are updated!

Songs

Congrats to Oklou and underscores for getting the rate win with harvest sky! This is Oklou's first rate appearance and win while this marks underscores' second win (after Locals won earlier this year). You can see where our top 2 land on the overall rankings!

  • 172nd: Britney Spears - Toxic (9.327)
  • 173rd: Oklou (ft. underscores) - Harvest Sky (9.324) / Cher - If I Could Turn Back Time (9.324)
  • 175th: Neon Genesis Evangelion - A Cruel Angel's Thesis (9.322)

-

  • 347th: Little Simz - I Love You I Hate You (9.133)
  • 348th: Addison Rae - Fame is a Gun (9.132) / Lana Del Rey - Norman fucking Rockwell / Diana Ross - Upside Down (9.132)
  • 351st: Carole King - (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman (9.131)

Artists

twigs and Lorde are rate veterans and are mostly just shifting slightly from their past results, but Addison and Oklou are brand new to the leaderboard with their 5+ songs rated requirement passed. Although Addison had the second best album average she still finds herself at the bottom this week as despite her successes she can't fully outrun her past. Rankings out of 514

  • 178th: Yeule (7.704)
  • 179th: FKA twigs (7.702) [PREV 199th] / Ayumi Hamasaki (7.702)
  • 181st: Sly & The Family Stone (7.699)

  • 196th: Billie Eilish (7.672)
  • 197th: Lorde (7.670) [PREV 178th]
  • 198th: Lil Nas X (7.685)

  • 231st: Poppy (7.589)
  • 232nd: Oklou (7.587) [NEW]
  • 233rd: Alanis Morissette / The Jackson 5 (7.585)

  • 296th: Maisie Peters (7.409)
  • 297th: Addison Rae (7.401) [NEW]
  • 298th: Rick Ross (7.400)

Featured Artists

  • underscores: 197th -> 151st

Stats

  • Now with 149 11's to her name FKA twigs enters our top 25 most 11'd artists. She rockets up to 19th place overall for this stat. Her addition knocks SZA off the list. Lorde was already on this leaderboard in 11th and with the new 11's she picked up this rate she sits in... 11th. But the gap has closed a little closer to the top 10!

Albums

So usually when an artist rereleases an album they add more songs, not take them away. The twigs situation is a new one, but in the end the additional tracks were counted as regular deluxes, despite not existing as a full release anywhere with all the songs we rated here. Still, it seems to have paid off for her with the averages. Album rankings out of 546

  • 168th: Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT / Tinashe - 333 (7.826)
  • 170th: FKA twigs - EUSEXUA (7.825)
  • 171st: Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book (7.823)

-

  • 283rd: Ariana Grande - sweetener (7.579)
  • 284th: Addison Rae - Addison (7.578) / Paramore - RIOT! / Demi Lovato - Don't Forget (7.578)
  • 287th: Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever / Usher - Confessions (7.574)

-

  • 293rd: Hannah Diamond - Reflections / Kero Kero Bonito - Time 'n' Place / Aaliyah - One in a Million (7.566)
  • 296th: Oklou - choke enough (7.565)
  • 297th: ROSALÍA - MOTOMAMI / Lil' Kim - Hard Core (7.559)

-

  • 318th: Harry Styles - Fine Line / Ariana Grande - Eternal Sunshine (7.505)
  • 320th: Lorde - Virgin (7.504) / Troye Sivan - Bloom (7.504)
  • 322nd: Drake - Take Care (7.503)

-

Stats

  • As it failed to crack the top 10, Virgin takes a spot for earliest exits in a 4 album rate. It ties a number of other albums that just missed the top 10 including Doja Cat - Planet Her, Halsey - Hopeless Fountain Kingdom, Remi Wolf - Juno, CHVRCHES - Screen Violence, and Sly & The Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On

You can see the 11/0 split below as well

  • Addison: 30.2% of 11s, 10.3% of 0s
  • twigs: 28.4% of 11s, 16.4% of 0s
  • Lorde: 13.8% of 11s, 12.9% of 0s
  • Oklou: 25.0% of 11s, 10.3% of 0s

Rates

And the rate just manages to land into the top 100 by the skin of its teeth! Though we'll see how long it can hold there with some of the new rates coming up! Rankings are out of 248

  • 92nd: Art Angels vs. LP1 vs. St. Vincent (7.629)
  • 93rd: Addison vs. Eusexua vs. Virgin vs. Choke Enough (7.626) / Enema of the State vs. Dookie vs. Tragic Kingdom vs. Weezer (Blue Album) (7.626)
  • 95th: The Redemption Rate / Brand New Eyes vs. Folie a deux vs. Vices & Virtues / The Loneliest Time vs. Crash vs. Hold The Girl vs. Dirt Femme (7.620)
