他是少有的单曲首周就能进前十名的乡村歌手

But the song of his that made the biggest initial splash on the chart so far is still "7 Summers", which debuted...
但他目前最成功的单曲还是"7 Summers" 首周就获得了
...#6, like some kind of sick joke.
第六名 是不是在开玩笑

I know most of you guys probably remember that "Worst Song of 2019" video...

太可惜了 也许有一天他会成为一位江郎才尽的乡村明星
And great songs like "7 Summers" and "Chasin' You" will just be a distant, fading memory.

I wonder if there's a song out there to represent that feeling.
不知道有没有能描述这种感觉的一首歌呢
I've been called a contrarian a few times before.
我曾经好几次被人称呼为杠精
I kind of think contrarian is a stupid word, stupid concept, really.
我觉得杠精这个概念挺蠢的
Very often, just a meme people used to brush off disagreement in disingenuous without actually engaging with it.
这个词通常只是某些人故意无视与自己不同意见的说辞罢了
Of course, in response to this, they usually say, "I'm being a contrarian about being a contrarian."
而这些人又经常说 我不是杠你哈 我是理性讨论
I mean, it's convoluted, but are they entirely wrong, though?
这套说辞挺复杂的 但是他们说得完全不对吗
♫ I'm that bad type ♫
♫ Make your mama sad type ♫
I mean, I have noticed that whenever a new artist shows up on the scene...
我承认 当我发现一个新人歌手的时候

2020 started out so good. Especially on the chart, the 2019 carryovers...

It just always works every single time.

Roddy Ricch deserves a lot of credit, too.
Roddy Ricch的表现也很值得肯定
His vocals are what pushed the sampling work over the top into a completely different league from "Blueberry Faygo".
他的声音让这个采样如虎添翼 完全超越了"Blueberry Faygo"
The man is a hook machine, coming up with a great new melody every single bar.
他简直是无情的副歌机器 每个小节都能唱出新的旋律
And when he does it on top of these samples, he creates an incredible grapevine of voices.
他的声音与这些采样相互交织 形成了这种极好的听感
♫ I drop into the bloody bottoms that's underneath ♫
♫ 'Cause all my n***as got it out the streets ♫
♫ I keep a hunnid racks inside my jeans♫
There is so much joy in the man's voice. It's wonderful.
他的声音里充满了愉悦 太迷人了
And it makes sense. 'Cause after all, “Ballin'" is a song about how happy he is that he finally found success.
这很合理 因为"Ballin'"这首歌就是有关他成功后的喜悦
It's also his first hit song, which, it was a little weird.
这是他的第一首热单 这很奇怪
That kind of thing tends to lead to the most hilarious crash in bridge you will ever find.
因为这种事通常都是光速翻车的前兆

Back when it first hit the radio, the song sounded like it was reacting to its own rise up the charts.
这首歌在电台崭露头角之初 好像唱的就是它自己一路高歌猛进
And when Roddy Ricch immediately got two massive #1 hits after this, it just made it all the more sweet.
当Roddy Ricch获得两首冠单之后 这首歌听起来就更加惬意了
This song is absolutely amazing.

Oh wait, just thought of one.
等等 我想起了一首

而是在安静的房间戴上耳机闭上眼 沉浸其中 简直是奇妙的体验
It seems simple on the surface, but there's layers upon layers that reveal themselves the more you listen.
这首歌乍一听很简单 但越听越会发现其中的层次异常丰富
The double tracking, triple tracking on his voice.
他的声音覆盖双层 甚至三层音轨
♫ I'd walk through fire for you ♫
The background vocals, the masterful harmonization on the shouts and the chorus.

I don't always want to feel intense sorrow.
我并不是总想感受如此强烈的悲伤
But whenever I do, this song supplies it and also thoroughly alleviates it all at once, it is a hell of an experience.
但当我需要的时候 它能让我陷入却又缓解我的悲伤 是一种奇妙的体验
So here's a question for you, what do you call a song that never goes away?

有些歌在榜上一直不下去 但明明没有人想看见它了 比如
..."Radioactive", "Hey, Soul Sister", "Shape of You", "No Guidance".
Ugly, unsightly songs and only stick around because radio stations are too lazy to replace them.
这些烂歌一直在榜的唯一原因是 电台懒得找歌曲代替它们
I call those songs "barnacles", for obvious reasons.
我把这些歌叫做藤壶 原因显而易见
藤壶 一种常附着于船底 龟壳上的石灰质外壳节肢动物
♫ She used to meet me on the Eastside ♫

What about the good songs though?
但那些好歌又叫做什么呢

The only song in recent memory with as massive and broad a chart dominance, as "Blinding Lights" is "Circles" by Post Malone.

And it took a long time to get to this point, but I think I'm finally tired of "Circles".
经过了这么长时间 我觉得我终于听腻"Circles"了
I don't really get excited anymore when I hear it, and I don't hold that against "Circles" at all.
我不再像最初听到"Circles"那么兴奋了 不是针对它
Even the best pop songs can't withstand a whole year of streaming and radio play.
就算最好的流行歌经不住一年的流媒和电台播放啊
Except for "Blinding Lights" by The Weeknd, which bafflingly somehow is still getting better with each listen.

The widespread appeal of the song just seemed supernatural to me at first.
这首歌广泛的吸引力起初让我觉得是不自然的
But as the year went on, it started to click. The song itself is supernatural.
但随着这一年过去 我明白了 这首歌本身就是超自然的
It's just a perfect song, so tight and controlled with a wonderfully paced build up.
这是一首完美的歌 节奏克制紧凑 情绪逐渐堆积
A melody that somehow both bright and dark at the same time.
旋律同时让人感到明快却又黑暗
I was always happy to see it around. I'm never not in a mood to listen to it. It never doesn't belong.

What do you call a song like that?

The only thing that makes sense is a god.
我唯一能想到的就是 永远的神
Blinding lights joins "Uptown Funk" and "Rolling in the Deep" among the modern gods of pop music.
它和"Uptown Funk"以及"Rolling in the Deep"进入了流行乐封神榜
This song is the deity. There's no other explanation.
这首歌就是神 没有别的解释了
So yeah, #3 is "Blinding Lights" by The Weeknd.
所以第三名就是The Weeknd的"Blinding Lights"
I feel like the less pressing question here is why it's so high.
我觉得现在的问题不是它为什么能排这么高
And more, what two songs could possibly rank above it?
而是哪两首歌能比它还高
It's the best tetro throwback song we've gotten since "Uptown Funk". What could top that.
这是"Uptown Funk"后最棒的复古歌曲 哪首歌还能超越它呢
Well, how about a song that actually literally came out in 1977?
一首真正诞生于1977年的歌曲怎么样
#2 was going to be "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac.
第二名本来应该是Fleetwood Mac的"Dreams"
♫ Now, here you go again ♫

Most of you guys know that it went viral and TikTok out of nowhere this year.
大多数人知道这首歌莫名其妙就在抖音又火起来了
Really, for absolutely no reason, other than just having a really nice vibe about it.
没有任何原因 除了这首歌有一种很舒适的氛围
I debated for a while, whether or not I could really consider it a 2020 song. I mean, it came out in 1977.
我想了很久 这首歌到底算不算2020年的歌 毕竟它是1977年的
There wasn't even an official 2020 release as far as I know.
据我所知 2020年都没有一次正式的发行
But come on. It's "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac. One of the best hit songs of all time.
但这是Fleetwood Mac的"Dreams" 史上最棒冠单之一
And it almost re-enter the fucking Weekly top ten out of nowhere. Forty three years later.
都过去四十三年了 它还差一点就重新进入前十了
That kind of momentous occasion, that kind of good omen, needs to be recognized. It needs to be encouraged
这种重大事件 这种好兆头 值得被认可和鼓励
But unfortunately, using just a few seconds of “Dreams” audio in my last video got a block worldwide.
但不幸的是 上个视频用了这个视频几秒就被全球范围屏蔽
黑榜用了这首歌配乐的抖音片段就被屏蔽了
以至于黑榜视频里的这个片段被消音
So that's not happening.
所以这首歌上不了榜
Instead, my #2 pick is "money machine" by 100 Gecs.
取而代之的是100Gecs的"money machine"
♫ Hey you lil' piss baby, you think you're so fucking cool? ♫

♫ Big boys coming with the big trucks ♫
Is it even 100 Gecs' best song? I doubt it.
它是100 Gecs最棒的歌吗 我持怀疑态度
Right off the top of my head, "hand crushed by a mallet" is a much more wealth constructed, real feeling song.
我首先想到"hand crushed by a mallet"编排更饱满 感情更真实
There was even a Pete Wentz remix that came out this year. Pretty big, too.
那首歌今年还有和Pete Wentz的remix版本 还挺火
美国乐团Fall Out Boy的贝斯手
Made its way pretty high on the US rock and alternative charts. Made it onto the Spotify daily Top 100.
还登上了美国另类摇滚榜单 进入了Spotify每日前一百名
"hand crushed by a mallet" would make a lot more sense on this list.
如果"hand crushed by a mallet"进红榜会更加合理
But "hand crushed by a mallet" isn't the second best hit in 2020.
但"hand crushed by a mallet"不是2020年第二好歌
The second best hit in the 2020 is "money machine".
2020年第二好歌是"money machine"
♫ ...tryna get ahead ♫
♫ Said it all before, and I'll say it once again ♫
♫ I'm better off alone ♫
♫ Tell me what's the deal, I've been trying to go to bed ♫
Is this some kind of jab at copyright? No, not at all.
这是对版权的控诉吗 不是
I don't own "Dreams". It's not my song.
我又不拥有"Dreams" 这不是我的歌
They can block my video if they want to. And they have.
如果他们想屏蔽我的视频当然可以 他们也这么做了
Therefore the second best hit in the 2020 is "money machine" by 100 Gecs.
所以2020年的第二好歌是100 Gecs的"money machine"
♫ Big boys coming with the big trucks ♫
♫ Feel so clean like a money machine, oh, yeah ♫
What is this? A statement? A protest?
这是在干什么 一次表态 一次抗议
Nope, not at all. This is purely a show of dominance.
都不是 这只是我单纯的主权宣示
This is me telling you that you cannot tell me what to do.
这是我在告诉你不要教我做事

"Future Nostalgia" may have dropped at the absolute worst possible time.
"Future Nostalgia"的发行时间奇差无比
It's an album full of disco jams that has so far lived the vast majority of its life in a world utterly deprived of venues.
聚会场所都关闭的情况下 充满迪斯科舞曲的专辑只能虚度此生
A Dua Lipa song cannot be enjoyed in 2020.

...or a relatively small get together of ten plus people in close orders...
在和十几个关系其次递减的朋友一起的聚会上

我真心认为如果不是疫情影响 "Don't Start Now"就冠了
"Break My Heart" only barely managed to scrape the Top 20...
"Break My Heart"勉强挤进前二十名
...probably only because it had the hook that starts with "I should have stayed at home". Lucky break there.
只因为副歌的那句“我本应呆在家里” 太走运了
"Physical" should have been at least as big as "Midnight Sky"...
"Physical"至少应该和"Midnight Sky"差不多火

♫ I'm one of the greatest, ain't no debatin' on it (Let's go) ♫

Altimately the remix is what push the song to the top spot.
这个remix是最终让这首歌成功的原因
To be honest, I didn't entirely get it at first. Felt like he didn't fit.
说实话 一开始我无法理解 觉得他无法融入这首歌
Hearing DaBaby say the phrase "left foot, right foot" was strange to say the least.
听DaBaby唱“和我左脚右脚一个慢动作”太奇怪了
♫ Left foot, right foot, levitatin' (C'mon) ♫
But honestly, now I think I'm starting to prefer the remix. His verse grew on me a lot over the past couple months.
但现在我更喜欢remix版本了 过去几个月里我喜欢上了他的部分
The thing is, it still doesn't really feel like it fits. But...
