There are a few pretenders to the best pop of 2014: Sia - Chandelier, Taylor Swift - Shake It Off, Röyksopp & Robyn - Do It Again, Charli XCX - Boom Clap, Tanika - Bad 4 U.
Chandelier isn’t open to interpretation – its bloodied beauty lies in its emotional honesty.
Shake It Off – the lead single from Taylor Swift’s first official pop album, 1989 – nearly as many times as a think-piece about its creator has been written.
Robyn softly intoning “We should not be friends, we’ll just do it again,” as string synths swell around her.
Boom Clap doesn’t sound like the groggy synthpop that was smeared across her dark debut, True Romance, or the riot grrrl pop punk of her forthcoming follow-up Sucker.
Tanika admonishes her suitor in a way only she can: “I told you once, I told you twice, I’m only gonna fuck wit ya life ‘cause I’m bad for you.”

What's really amazing is that until a few days ago I didn't even know who Sia was. Damn. Not into pop music really, but now I'm freaking obsessed over her catalog of work. lol.
