2016 Music Recognition Award Results

Well, this was your year-end choices for your music for 2016. This poll closed about a month ago and now I have gathered all of the results! I would like to just get right to the results, as it is fairly lengthy. Let's just go over the way this post will run before we get into the winners. 

There were seven nominees for each category. Every song will have a place number (#1-#7). Each place number will be color coded, just to show the entirety of all results. Below, you will see the color code for each place number (#1-#7).

#1-Green
#2-Blue
#3-Pink
#4-Yellow
#5-Turquoise
#6-Red
#7-Orange

Purple will not be in use for this post.

If there is a tie, the places will still be in their same color, even if two are listed, there may not be a certain placed color for that time. For example, a tie for fifth place may look like (Artist - Song, Artist - Song, Artist - Song, Artist - Song, Artist - Song, Artist - Song, Artist - Song). So, in that case, orange would not be used. If there are multiple ties, the system still applies. 

Got it? Okay! Let's jump right in to the nominees and our winners.

Castle On The Blurbs

~ I don't understand the jump of Twenty One Pilots - Heathens to the top again, the last time being in October. I really don't mind that much, but I would have preferred much more that Sia/Kendrick Lamar - The Greatest at #1.

~ I really do enjoy that Shawn Mendes - Mercy has jumped into the top 10 this week. I also don't find this surprising at all. Now that we're on the topic of top 10 entries, I don't understand how in the world Runaground - Chase You Down made it this high. I never would've thought this, but I'm not complaining. The final entrant from Adele - Water Under The Bridge is of course also a good thing.


~ I really hope that Zayn & Taylor Swift - I Don't Wanna Live Forever doesn't just give up peaking at #12. I really hope this song can earn a top 10 entry. Mentioning this song, a very good music video was released with this song just a couple of days ago, and I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it already.

~ I am enjoying that X Ambassadors - Unsteady failed to get into the top 20 this week. It soothes me.

~ Oh. So I guess this is the end of Ariana Grande/Nicki Minaj - Side To Side. Well, it was very nice knowing you. 

~ I really had expected Ed Sheeran - Castle On The Hill to jump higher this week. On note of what else I expected, Steve Aoki & Louis Tomlinson - Just Hold On would jump into the top 20, due to them hosting this week.

~ Well, James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go made a refreshing mini-comeback.

~ The Weeknd/Daft Punk - I Feel It Coming didn't make the jump I wanted it to. Hopefully it'll get there next week.

~ I guess we didn't say goodbye to Lukas Graham - You're Not There. I still see as if it's on the losing end. I honestly don't care though, this song is very similar in respects to Lukas Graham - 7 Years, which was also just meh.

~ I would love if Major Lazer/DJ Snake/MØ - Cold Water would be replaced by Snakehips/MØ - Don't Leave, as I have been enjoying that song thoroughly. I would love to see that song debut next week when we are going into the new month of February.

~ Yes. You saw it right. Pitbull/Flo Rida/LunchMoney Lewis - Greenlight has earned the not-so-green title of being the worst song on the countdown. I just want this song to leave before I hate it even more than I already do.

~ Andy Grammer - Fresh Eyes should leave next week, just to clear some clutter out of here.

~ The Hot 45 Chart is going quicker on track so far this week. If you're looking for last week's chart, I posted it last night. I hope to get the chart out tomorrow, or even later tonight. Then I will have time to get out the posts I am behind on.

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Halsey - Not Afraid Anymore

#1 Recommendation For You: Snakehips/MØ - Don't Leave

New Entrants

~ First out of the two great debuts this week, we have The Weeknd and Daft Punk returning with another collaboration with I Feel It Coming. I haven't been able to determine if I think this song is better than Starboy yet, but there is a very good chance it is. I really enjoy the blend of The Weeknd and Daft Punk's styles, as it makes for yet another catchy song like an electropop adventure. It's really quite cool. I hope this song doesn't get overlooked here. I would love to see this as a top 10 hit on this station.

~ Our next great debut this week comes from Ed Sheeran again. Castle On The Hill doesn't quite top Shape Of You, so I would like to see Shape Of You as the higher of the two on this countdown. This song is definitely catchy, but I feel as if it's missing a piece that would make it catchier than Shape Of You. All in all, I would like to see this song do well here as it is definitely at the top of some of my playlists right now.

I Feel It Blurbing

~ I still like Hailee Steinfeld & Grey/Zedd - Starving, so I honestly don't care that it is #1 again. It can stay there for another month for all I care.

~ I am very happy seeing that Sia/Kendrick Lamar - The Greatest has made an entry into the top 5, I would love to see a top 3 entry from this song if that's possible, maybe even a #1.

~ I really do not understand the need to keep voting for Treat You Better when his better song is getting held back because of this. I really would love to see the two trade spots, as Treat You Better currently holds the title of the worst song in the top 20.

~ It's nice to see that Zayn & Taylor Swift are inching closer to the top 10 with I Don't Wanna Live Forever. I would love to see this song in the top 10 next week.

~ It's clear to see that Adele - Water Under The Bridge is the one Adele song that Hits 1 isn't favoring as much as the others. I would've thought this would be in the top 3 by now and #1 in the coming weeks.

~ I am enjoying the drop from Bruno Mars - 24K Magic, as it is on the verge of becoming a turquoise song possibly next week. I would just love to see this song let up a little.

~ I am liking the quick jumps from Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You and Machine Gun Kelly & Camila Cabello - Bad Things, especially since they are two of the best songs here at the moment.

~ I would think the drop from Side To Side would have something to do with something that happened this week, but who knows?

~ Yes! We got X Ambassadors - Unsteady out of the top 20! Now let's get it out of the countdown altogether.

~ I would also think that the drop from Into You would have something to do with something that happened this week, but who knows?

~ I am very happy seeing that OneRepublic - Kids has let up a little, as it is very close to becoming a song colored in red.

~ I don't understand the drops from James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go and Martin Garrix & Bebe Rexha - In The Name Of Love. Two good songs about to leave is not a good sign.

~ Well, it was nice knowing you Lukas Graham - You're Not There, send me a postcard from the island of forgotten songs.

~ Well, its nothing good considering we have three good songs in the bottom 5. Here's to hoping DNCE - Body Moves, Fifth Harmony/Camila Cabello - That's My Girl, and Gnash/Olivia O'Brien - I Hate U, I Love U stay a while longer.

~ The Hot 45 Chart and its year-end chart will be out as soon as I can get them here. The 2016 Awards will also be out as soon as I can get them out as well. I have a gigantic project due in the coming weeks, and I am expected to get it done, as I am an AP student. I will try my best and please bear with me.

Well, this was definitely a better week than last week. I really enjoyed the majority of the countdown.

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Alan Walker - Alone

#1 Recommendation For You: Julia Michaels - Issues

New Entrants

~ First off this week we have Machine Gun Kelly returning with a new single with Camila Cabello, Bad Things. I have been enjoying this song for a little while now. The only other work from Machine Gun Kelly that I can say I liked was A Little More, featuring Victoria Monét. Other than that, there wasn't anything else that I have liked from him in the past. Bad Things is undeniably a catchy song. Machine Gun Kelly's verses flow rather smoothly in this song and Camila Cabello adds a lot to it. This was also further proof of her solo endeavors. If she's planning on her solo work to sound like this, I will say that I am greatly anticipating her future releases. I would enjoy seeing this song have success here, as it has been on repeat with me over these past few weeks.

~ Our second and last debut this week comes from Ed Sheeran. It's refreshing to see that Shape Of You doesn't rehash old and boring styles of Thinking Out Loud and even Photograph. I have had this song playing a lot over the past week. Ed Sheeran just really shines when his songs are more upbeat. I just think that this is the style of music that best fits his voice. This song was also released with another single last week, Castle On The Hill. Although Castle On The Hill isn't better than Shape Of You, its still very good and I am enjoying it as well. All I want to see out of Shape Of You for the time being is some good countdown success.

Bad Blurbs

~ Maroon 5 - Don't Wanna Know can stay at the top of the countdown as long as it wants, as long as it prevents Twenty One Pilots - Heathens and Niall Horan - This Town from reaching #1. So far, it is succeeding in my wishes.

~ Of course we bid good day to two fantastic songs from the top 10, and we get a crappy re-entry back in. Shawn Mendes - Treat You Better needs to leave. I am really getting sick of this.

~ After repeated listens, Lady Gaga - Million Reasons has rid itself from the blue zone. I guess this was just one of those songs. I'm glad I am enjoying this song at the moment.

~ I found it interesting that both the best song and worst song on the countdown landed next to each other this week. The former of which, I'm glad was higher. Zayn & Taylor Swift - I Don't Wanna Live Forever took a well deserved jump back into the top 20. Hopefully it continues to rise. X Ambassadors - Unsteady is now the worst song here, as the level of actual bad songs is beginning to wither, as we are slowly getting rid of them week by week. This one could be orange for a while, unless it finally decides to freaking drop.

~ I am very glad Charli XCX - After The Afterparty made a recovery from that drop last week, even reaching the top 20. This song is just really fun and enthusiastic. I just really enjoy how Charli XCX isn't afraid to embrace her inner child. I love that kind of expression, even though I am still technically a kid.

~ I really enjoyed seeing that small dip in the numbers from OneRepublic - Kids. Hopefully this song continues to decline, as it is very close to becoming a song colored in red.

~ Oh, I didn't know that Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty can make random jumps out of the bottom 5, back into the top 30. This song almost was dead here, and of course Hits 1 can't get Daya off their minds, so they decide to give her the second biggest jump of the week. I just don't want this song to get older than it already is.

~ I really am disappointed that Martin Garrix & Bebe Rexha - In The Name Of Love took that ridiculous drop out of the top 10. I really would like to see it make a recovery, even one where it goes back into the 20's. I just don't understand the logic on this station sometimes.

~ Well, Fitz & The Tantrums - HandClap is getting a slow start. Not very promising there.

~ Great. We just have Fifth Harmony/Camila Cabello - That's My Girl drop into the bottom 5. I guess Hits 1 just hands out permission slips left and right for good song to drop.

~ It's very refreshing to see Andy Grammer - Fresh Eyes in the lowest spot on the countdown. Hopefully this can be rid of next week.

~ Last week's Hot 45 Chart came out yesterday afternoon with a new format. I suggest you go read that if you haven't already. This week's Hot 45 Chart will most likely be out no later than Tuesday.

#1 Recommendation For Hits 1: Kat DeLuna - Waves

#1 Recommendation For You: Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You

New Entrants

~ Our first entrant comes from Fitz & The Tantrums this week. HandClap is definitely something that took me a while to like. I didn't like this song at first. When it entered HitBound, I reconsidered my hatred towards this song and it's actually quite fun. So, I hope it does well here.

~ Next up this week was Lukas Graham returning after one so-so and one godawful hit. You're Not There is just quite average at the moment. I have swayed between enjoying this song and hating it, but at the moment its just whatever. I wouldn't really love for this song to stay long, but it probably will considering the obsession with the last two songs from this band.

~ Lastly this week, we have Shawn Mendes returning here rather high up with Mercy. I really am enjoying its tenure already. I can just say that I want this to replace Treat You Better in the coming weeks and be higher up among the rest of the songs here.

Best Debut Of The Week: Shawn Mendes - Mercy

You're Not Blurbs

~ I hadn't expected the occurrence of Maroon 5 - Don't Wanna Know at #1 this week, but every year, the first week is always a little wonky. 

~ I really would've appreciated it if Bruno Mars - 24K Magic hadn't made a comeback into the top 10 this week. It should be on the decline by now.

~ I'm liking the presence of Ariana Grande/Nicki Minaj - Side To Side in the top 10. Also, the departure of Shawn Mendes - Treat You Better is almost refreshing.

~ Adele - Water Under The Bridge needs to make a move. I wish this song would just enter the top 10 already, it's worthy.

~ X Ambassadors - Unsteady continues to make my ears bleed. I wish this song would just leave already, I mean its been here for months on end, can't it just give up already?

~ Just when I say it was okay for Ariana Grande - Into You to start declining, it makes a nice jump back into the top 20. I really am not complaining about this at all, though.

~ I really wish that a drop from Zayn & Taylor Swift - I Don't Wanna Live Forever hadn't happened. Hopefully it will make a quick recovery and be on the fast track to the top of the countdown again.

~ I could really have some entertainment here if Steve Aoki & Louis Tomlinson - Just Hold On made a freaking move here. I mean, this is the one song I thought would shoot into the teens on its second week, but I guess I have been stood up.

~ I really wasn't expecting the dip from Charli XCX - After The Afterparty. I hope it makes a recovery, but that is hard to tell honestly.

~ Well, it's nice to see a good piece of work holding on here, as DNCE - Body Moves has been down low like this for weeks and still hasn't exited. I really would love to see this one make a recovery, but it doesn't seem likely at this point in time.

~ I really wasn't seeing that big drop from Pitbull/Flo Rida/Lunchmoney Lewis - Greenlight, but, boy am I glad it happened. Hopefully this song leaves in the coming weeks.

~ Lastly, I would like to recognize our new suckiest song on the countdown, Kenny Chesney/P!nk - Setting The World On Fire and I sure hope this is an exit next week.
