Best songs of 2013

I've lost counts of all of the songs that have come to surface this year.

Keeping the topic to just positive points (if possible) what are your top three fave songs to come out in 2013.

Breakfast Can Wait - In my opinion, it's among his best work. It's playful, catchy, and has some beautiful melodies.

That Girl Thing - Great piece, very intimate sounding and it also has good lyrics. I actually think it's perfect as is, except maybe without that mic error halfway through it.

Nothing else really grabs me as above just being good. Those two songs above are instant classics for me, Breakfast Can Wait could've been a great single for release on iTunes, and That Girl Thing shows that Prince can still do intimate recordings and has some inspiration in him.

But if I had to pick a third best, I'd say the RnR Affair remix (the originals still really good in my opinion) or the original version of Screwdriver. They're both catchy and RnR Affair has some cool lyrics in it.

i can't say i hate any of them.

except, "that girl thang", that grates after a while. and "LOL".

hard to make a top 3 or even chose an absolute favorite.

they change from week to week.

at this very moment the Screwdriver Remix is my favorit guitar

but i also really love "breakfast" and "same page different book"

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

oh and sure, "the breakdown" but that hasn't had an official release yet

so i feel like i can't pick that as my favorit song although i'm sure that,

unless prince fucks it up by toying with it and overproducing it (weren't

3rdeyegirl recording parts for it only a month ago, when we heard the

original studioversion snippet from dj rashida at dakota? -so he's done

some changes already) it will end up being an all time favorit of mine,

not just concerning songs released this year.

I really want to hear that song but I'm waiting for it to get an official release :/ or for the studio version to leak or something. I just don't want to go through the hassle of looking for and downloading an entire concert just to hear one or two songs. It's not worth the effort to me at times.

I was impressed with Breakfast can wait and Same page different book. The rest I thought pretty forgettable. But Im not sure I heard them all. The singles (FixUrLifeUp and Rock N Roll Love Affair) I found pretty weak.

None of the songs are memorable, past actually listening to them. I've listened to them all, & forgot about them, right after I heard them. neutral

need to hear them in my car from a CD to make a good judgement.

but i like most of them quite a bit.

I noticed Breakfast can wait, seems to be the favorite here.

But, what's with the smurf on that song, for me that ruins the song completely.
