Go with the flow while swaying our feet to my song picks so far this year 2021. Like last year, most of the songs here were influenced by the video-sharing app TikTok.

Top 3 Songs of June 2021:
3. “Running Away” – VANO 3000, BADBADNOTGOOD & Samuel T. Herring
I cannot get enough of the viral TikTok trend with a BADBADNOTGOOD looped sample that pays tribute to the bumpers of Cartoon Network’s late-night programming block [adult swim].
2. “Butter” – BTS
I will always associate this song with the 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, medium French Fries, medium Coke, and the Sweet Chili and Cajun dipping sauces or the McDonald’s BTS Meal.
1. “good 4 u” – Olivia Rodrigo
Everyone familiar with Paramore can also hear some similarities to the American rock band’s 2007 breakthrough single “Misery Business”.
Intermission: Simulang i-angat ang bandera sa mga kantang OPM tampok ang SB19, Shanti Dope, James Reid, Angela Ken, Zack Tabudlo, at ang “Pajama Party (Cypher 1)” ng 1096 Gang ft. Guddhist, Youngwise, Polo Pi, Ghetto Gecko & Luci J. I-follow lang ang Spinnin’ Rabbit sa Spotify at pakinggan Pasok Sa Tunog playlist.
Top 3 Songs of the Year 2021 so far:
3. “Leave The Door Open” – Silk Sonic
Grammy Award-winning American-Filipino singer-songwriter Bruno Mars joined forces with fellow Grammy Award-winning American singer Anderson .Paak for an R&B superduo Silk City.
2. “HEARTBREAK ANNIVERSARY” – GIVĒON
I’m as confused as anyone thinking why lovers use this sleeper hit as a celebration of their relationship. LOL
1. “drivers license” – Olivia Rodrigo
The best part of the song would probably be the dreamy bridge. I don’t remember any recent song whose bridge as rich as the catchphrase “I still fuckin’ love you”.
Top 3 Throwback Songs:
3. “Booty Wurk (One Cheek At A Time)” – T-Pain ft. Joey Galaxy [2011]
I guess everyone on Philippine TikTok tried Niana Guerrero’s breath-catching choreography.
2. “Rasputin” – Boney M. [1978]
“Russia’s greatest love machine” himself Grigori Rasputin inspired the German group Boney M. with this viral TikTok Euro-disco hit.
1. “The Luck You Got” – The High Strung [2005]
Glad I watched all 11 seasons of the American TV series Shameless a few months before the series finale last April. The show is fantastic. Each main character’s journey is well-written especially Emmy Rossum’s role Fiona. (That one’s the GOAT!) Plus they feature indie rock songs for their soundtrack.
