101-MARIAH CAREY FEAT. MIGUEL
#Beautiful
(Island)
We begin our annual countdown of the year’s favourite songs with the symbolic 101 position, traditionally reserved for a guilty pleasure left at the gates of our chart. In 2013 this honour goes to Mariah Carey in totally unexpected good song shocker with the hashtagged #Beautiful’; although is the trendy R&B star Miguel who deserves a big part of the credit.
Tuareg guitar players; R&B bombshells; acid rappers and returning vocal icons from the 90’s march hand by hand in the first part of our tracks of the year. Find out who made the cut here
