Hmm... THOSE are the Big Hits of 2007...?

Unlike my stance in other areas (...)
I will not pretend to be an
"all-knowing expert" of what makes the
ever ebullient music industry "pop"... (!)
But I can still come up with a TOP 10
of what are, (IMLO) in my luminous opinion,
the biggest hits of the year that is ending TONIGHT...
2007 was, in my eyes, Timbaland's year.
His "Shock Value" release was something else
and he managed to be both artist
AND producer/promoter of other artists on it!
Nelly Furtado had another revealing year
(though revealing she might be flimsy a bit
wasn't exactly a high point in her career)
and she also collaborated with Timbaland,
not-so coincidentally...
Top spot goes to RIHANNA though -
as her song expresses so "spunkily", just in its title,
what I summarily feel about a certain designated driver
that I know, a ninny by the name of ROSA... (!)
Nods go also to the likes of
Sean Kingston, who made a splash
with his ode to being -gulp- suicidal?
Took guts to do that, I guess...!
Kanye West and James Blunt
confirmed their stature too in 2007 -
West blew competitor 50Cent out of the water
(as long as it doesn't end like the
Notorious B.I.G./Tupac feud...!)
while Blunt proved that, 30-odd years ago,
life was better - with 1973
(also proving that his sophomore album
was virtually every bit as good as his
smash-hit breaking first!)

That's for the Top Ten, at least!
Those of you who are pissed off
that I omitted a personal fave
rest easy - and keep listening
to my luminous playlist - ok?

And, as if that wasn't enough,
here's the Billboard charts widget too!
As seen on the laudable blog!
(Or even better than it is seen there!)
