Fictional Characters that have ADHD, Autism, or both because I, a person with both, say so (and I won’t take criticism)

These are just opinions please don't attack me. I'll gladly explain some of them, but others are hard to explain past "I just have a feeling".

Warnings: Little Bit of Blood

Pairings: Sam Fraser x Black!Berman!Girlfriend Reader

Summary: [Name]’s girlfriend, Sam is possessed by the devil so the Johnson siblings go to Ziggy to help catch the killers not knowing that their friend is also the redhead’s niece.

Word Count: 2,567

Author’s Note: Requested from my wattpad account.

you and your aunt, christine berman was intensely watching the news report on the couch, your head on her shoulder. two teens shown on the television, you recognized them as your girlfriend friends, simon and kate were like siblings to you.

you were devastated at the news, your gaze now on the floor but it arose back up when you heard the name sheriff nick goode. you never trusted sheriff goode, he was just kinda off to you. sure, he may have been your aunt's first love but that doesn't exactly get him on your good side.

you never left the house unless you were going to school or going grocery shopping, your aunt made sure of that and it was a little annoying at first. but can you blame her, she lost her sister and she would blame herself if something ever happened to you. you introduced her to your girlfriend, samantha fraser, she wasn't too fond of new people in the house but she eventually warmed up to her seeing that you were happy.

an alarm scared the both of you and telling you that it's dinner time. you loved your aunt but having a ton of alarm clocks are a bit much but you never commented about it. you're basically immune to those damn clocks now. ziggy stopped the alarm clock and you walked in the kitchen to start prepping up some spaghetti for the two of you.

once you were finished, you took up the two plates of food and handed one to ziggy. you both sat and ate in silence, another alarm starts to buzz. ziggy took out two sodas to wash it all down. as much as you love your aunt christine, you don't want her to be an alcoholic.

christine saw how similar you were to cindy; personality and facial features. she made a promise to cindy and that was to keep you safe and she will fulfill that. you were cindy's adopted daughter, she signed the adoption papers ahead of time. you're 16 years old, you were only an infant when this tragedy struck against shadyside, once again.

it was just you and your aunt, your mom died at camp nightwing, 1978. you never asked about your mom cause you didn't want to bring up the trauma for your aunt. the only thing that you had from your mom was a picture of her and a gold heart shaped locket with a picture of you as a baby and cindy holding you with the brightest smile on her face.

you always felt the presence of her spirit around you so you never took of your locket unless it was necessary. like mother, like daughter, you both liked blonde girls. another alarm starts to buzz as you both got up to starting locking your doors and windows. major-tom's barking could be heard from in a room. “major, jesus! [name] can yo–“

“i got it aunt zig.” you went to where the sound of the barking came from. ziggy smiles at your retreating figure, even the way you walk looks so similar to your mom. another alarm rings and you quickly shut it off. you poured some dog food into major-tom's bowl, giving him a head rub as he ate, “you're an impatient bastard, aren't you?”

the television was the only source of light and sound in the house as you and ziggy slept peacefully on the couch. until a rapid knocking woke you both out of your sleep, ziggy got up first hearing the knocks grew more rapidly and repeatedly. the door knob rattled and a few seconds later, a flashlight was shown through the mail door. another pair of flashlights was shown through the windows.

you were a heavy sleeper so you didn't awoke by that and ziggy carefully picked you up, placing you in the closet with major tom as she shut the door behind her. you were awoken by major tom licking your face and some distant growling noise coming from preferably the bathroom.

you got up with a groan, confused on how you got in the closet, walking out of the closet to walking in the living room to see deena and josh? your aunt sits in her chair, not noticing that you were now in her presence.

“deena. josh. what are you guys doing here?”

“[name]! we may have a pr–“ a growling in the bathroom cuts deena off.

your aunt drops to her knees in shock, not believing that her first love was the cause of her sister's death. you quickly wrap your arms around the redhead as tears start to form her eyes you knew something was off with that whole goode family. now your girlfriend was possessed by the devil in your bathroom and would possibly kill all of us if she got free. "we can't kill the devil but we can kill him. we have to kill nick goode."

christine stammers, “b-but i called him. i thought that he could help.” deena’s eyes widen at her statement and ran to josh with you following behind.

“we need to go now!” you start to untie sam as she makes grunts of protests, until she straddles you and tries to attack you, you tried to get away but she wouldn't budge.

you had no choice but to punch sam, so you did, with one swift with your fist across sam's face and she was out like a light falling beside you. you look over at the older berman, breathing heavily, “finally, [name]. thought that you didn't had the balls.”

deena is driving the cop car at full speed with you and ziggy in the back and josh and her in the front. “nice going dee, way to make us totally ordinary. the sirens and flashing noises really makes it stand out.” you remarked to the freckled girl.

“well, i don't know how to shut it off. because you know, this is the first time stealing a car.” deena snarls back with her eyes still on the road. you roll your eyes at the girl as sam bangs against in the back trunk trying to get free. you rest your head on your aunt's shoulder; overthinking all the things that could go wrong. deena could die and than soon after you all die and shadyside will still be fucked.

ziggy leans forward looking over to josh, “are we sure about this?” josh stays silent and only looks at the card in his hands. the car comes to a stop and josh peeks his head out the window and says, “hey!”

martin leans his head for better vision and asks, “urkel?” josh answers was yes before he speaks up again, “wanna help us kill sheriff goode?” martin pauses for a moment and than speaks, “lemme get my coat.”

“ok cut it.” you yelled to martin. the power cuts off and the mall is covered with glow in the dark paint. hearing the bell ring, you look to ziggy as she looks down at you. just in time martin comes out the door and you grabbed his hand pulling him towards a small stand where your aunt was already hiding by.

“jesus. careful.” martin exclaims as you two hid with your aunt. “be quiet.” you commanded the black man. “why?” he questioned.

“there's someone here!” your aunt announced. there was a pregnant silence as the three of you look around trying to figure out if it was one of the shadyside killers. a flashlight shown from the back of you which makes the trio turn around to see a shadyside police officer.

“police! hands up! hands up!” a shadyside police shouted at the three of you, a gun aimed and ready to shoot and the flashlight switching to each of your faces. “you listen to me. you don't have any idea what's going on right here. you're gonna die if you don't listen to me.” ziggy tried to inform the police while you agree with her but martin kept saying, “no. we- we good good.”

martin let's out a funny squeal, “we cool.” the police officer aimed his flashlight at martin. “martin?” he asked.

“yeah. yeah.” he waved at the police. “are you kidding me?” he exclaimed. on another side of the mall, another police officer caught deena and josh, telling them to put their hands up and slide the water guns to him. the sibling duo did what they were told, sliding the toy guns to the police officer. “sir, sir. just please let us explain.” josh tried to redeem himself the officer but the man ignored him, shouting out to the other officer that he got two more over here.

the police officer lowered his gun and flashlight off of you and started to speak in his shoulder walkie-takie, “we got the 5150–“ he gets cut off by the sound of a squealing sound going into his back and than his neck gets slitted.

the officer drops down dead to reveal a shadyside killer, the milkman. “oh!” martin screams, grabbing the attention of the other police officer. your heart rate increases as it catches the other officer attention which makes him start shooting to the killer. the bullets doesn't stop the milkman.

“oh my, holy!” martin exclaimed as you all got up and started to quickly run away from the scene. you reach one of the shops and ziggy places martin there. martin is too shocked as he witnesses the other officer getting brutally killed by a stab in the stomach.

“ok. i need you to stay focused because the plan is still on, ok?” ziggy tries to reassure the man before grabbing your hand and getting up to leave. before you could leave, martin grabs onto your arm, “wait, wait, wait, you two are leaving?” he asked mostly scared.

“hold fast. stay out of their way. they'll walk right by you.” you said to the scared man as ziggy gives him the rope before leaving with you. you reached your stand and ziggy kisses your forehead before whispering, “be safe, [name].” you nodded to her instruction and she hands you the rope as you securely wrapped it on your hand. she runs away to her stand and you deeply breathe, hoping that she wouldn't meet death in the face, again.

you started to hear shallow breathing, and you looked up to see the nightwing killer, a flour bag to cover his bloody face with a bloody axe tightly secured in his hand. to be honest, you were kinda glad that tommy went to where you were, ziggy would probably have trauma, seeing her sister's murderer all over again.

this was all too much for you, seeing your mother's killer right in front of you. you wanted to cry and let out all your anger out but you couldn't, you were doing this for your girlfriend, your mom and for shadyside.

as soon as he went into the shop, you immediately began to start pulling, bringing the barrier down. the noise was heard as the killer turned away trying to run out in time. it was going great until it stopped, only a few inches down to shut, you mentally cursed, quickly running over to the barrier and began to use your foot to anchor it down all the way. tommy began to bang on the barrier with his axe, just as you closed it all the way.

running away from the nightwing killer, you stopped when you reached where your girlfriend was. everyone else was already there, all safe and secure. “how many is that?” deena asked, breathing heavily. “i got one. martin got the milkman.” josh informed his older sister.

ziggy walks in, “four. we have four.” she bends to your level, “skull mask.” you finished her off, “and i had nightwing.”

“no ruby?” deena whispers while looking at you. “i don't know. we need to keep an eye–“ you stated, hearing the shadyside killers trying to break free but martin interrupted you all down, “yo yo, why'd it get so quiet?” you all notice that martin was right as you try to listen to any noise, the banging stopped so that could only mean one thing.

“he's here.” ziggy realizes as your grip tighten on her hand. “you don't have to do this.” deena tells the redhead but ziggy wasn't backing down now. “yes i do.” she informs the group of shadysiders, she turns to you kissing your forehead, letting go of your hand before leaving.

to make matters worse, sam started growling again trying to break free of her restraints. josh pulls you in for a comforting hug trying to ease your worries, it worked slightly as you thanked him.

“mount up.” deena commands the rest of you as she got up and left. you all followed behind her, going back to your places, ready to let the killers out. you saw ziggy pull the rope which held the bucket of deena's blood on him which was mixed with glow in the dark paint, luckily she got out of the way in time. you, martin, deena and josh began to pull all the ropes holding the killers hostage up,

they smelled the blood on nick and started walking to him. sheriff goode's eyes landed on your aunt and ran after her, keeping her on a headlock, holding his gun out at the killers. “if i die, she dies.” nick said wearily, seeing that the shadyside killers were coming after him from different directions.

than all of a sudden you heard screaming, your aunt ziggy tried to fight against him but it was no use. “your blood is on her!” you yelled to deena. deena sliced her hand, drawing blood which makes the killers look at her now.

she immediately began to run and so did your aunt run to safety. she quickly takes off her shirt sliding it out under the barrier just in time. sheriff goode went running behind a door and so did deena.

you picked up your water gun and began to spray one of the killers. the rest of them began to follow what you did and soon enough the killers began to attack each other. you were about to fight the killers but all of a sudden they disappeared into a bunch of flies. you smiled knowing that deena killed sheriff goode. “that bitch did it.” you said.

sam grabs you by your waist and pulls you in for a kiss. you pull away, holding her hand and walking to sarah fire's grave. “you bought cheeseburgers.” sam asked you as you wrote 'sarah fier, the first shadysider' on a rock. you turned back to the blonde.

“of course i did.” you both sat on the sheet and began to eat, in each other's comfort. it was all over, no more shadyside curse. you broke a 300 year old curse and now shadyside was at peace. cindy looked down at you, happy to see that you are happy.

I've been desperate to write that nick x ziggy fic where she goes looking for Sarah Fier's bones and he just decides to join, but I've revamped it a bit so they're in their early twenties/late teens (still haven't decided yet) and Nick is a rookie cop working under his dad and Ziggy gets pulled into the station a lot/gets into trouble because she's well, Ziggy, and they create a sorta friendship/relationship from there.

the curse isn't going to be like in canon, but it kinda sorta exists. Think more of a The Clovehitch Killer kinda vibe (which is a movie I watched recently and is pretty good). So people are dying, but there's just no satan. I'm still figuring out the final details. so like angsty with humour and fluff and probably some sex because they're horny and emotionally repressed. it's so much fun! :)

oh, and the period drama au. I've been stuck on it for a while, so I think I may have to turn it into a multi chapter fic instead of a one or two shot because there's so many details I want to include but it's gonna be too long, I think.

#nick x ziggy #ziggy x nick #Joseph Goode is the worst #so is canon nick #nick goode #ziggy berman

ugh i still ship nick and ziggy even though he’s the big, big bad. he definitely still has—had— feelings for her in 1994.

part of me believes that he didn’t want her to die at the mall because he did scream at deena that ziggy was going to die since she got deena’s blood on her. i mean i know nick caused that.

hence why the other part of me believes that he only did that to distract deena and save his own ass.

nick x ziggy truly deserved better :(

(p.s. i’m pretty sure ziggy survived her first death because nick wished for it. there’s no way it was cpr. it was through his deal with the devil. ig he really did love her)

my crack theory is they switched teen nick with a different goode that did a spell to make himself look younger because nick was the only goode that was truly good and that wasn't what the family's values were but like at the end of the day he's bad and this is just me wanting him to be my best friend because I watched rise and am a musical gay

Even though it doesn't equate the roles or the characters, I see Ziggy as Magneto, Nick as Professor X and Martin is Logan, eating popcorn with the kids and watching the chaos.

"Martin is Logan, eating popcorn with the kids and watching the chaos." That tracks. Logan is always hanging with teens and engaging in shenanigans with them. Given how down Martin was to join the Johnsons I accept this

Track by Track Review - Hottest 100 2020

Wrote this article a little bit ago just for fun. Decided to post it on here with the thought of maybe getting back to the Bish Review. Also, put an asterix next to my votes (songs that made my top 10). Anyway, here we go:

100. Kool - BENEE

One of the many gems from ‘Hey u x’. Unlucky to hear her biggest hit so early on.

99. Itch - Hockey Dad

I thought ‘Brain Candy’ was a little bit of a disappointment, but Itch was one of the strongest tracks they duo have released.

98. Your Man - Joji

Surprised to hear this track in the countdown. Pretty solid tune though

97. Audacity (feat. Headie One) - Stormzy

He’s still one of the best from the UK rap scene and this track shows why.

96. Germaphobe - Hockey Dad

One of the weaker tracks, I thought, off Brain Candy, but not surprised a lot of Hockey Dad fans liked this one. Definitely plays into their audience’s taste.

95. Loose Ends (feat. G Flip) - Illy

I do not like Aussie Hip Pop. This track is not an exception.

94. Rain (feat. Tay Keith) - Aitch and AJ Tracey

The piano in this is very ‘Humble’ - Kendrick Lamar. Still a banger though.

93. Lemonade (feat. Gunna, Don Toliver and NAV) - Internet Money

Bit of a forgettable track. It’s okay, but feels like there’s a lot better like this out there.

92. These Days - Thelma Plum

First cover of the countdown. Still one of the best Hottest 100 number ones, and Thelma does it justice.

91. Charlie - Bugs

Second cover of the countdown. I do like this but I feel it doesn’t reach the same heights as the original.

90. No Time To Die - Billie Eilish

A little expected from Eilish but still a solid Bond song (the second in history to make it).

89. In Her Eyes - The Jungle Giants

I cannot wait for the new Jungle Giants album. They’ve gotten better and better with each release.

88. Heart Attack (feat. lau.ra) - BRONSON*

I fell deeply in love with this song the second I heard it. It just has this quiet yet strong emotion behind it. The production on it is something else as well.

87. Three Leaf Clover - Teenage Joans

A really solid debut single by the Unearthed High winners. Can’t wait to hear more from them.

86. Laugh Now Cry Now (feat. Lil Durk) - Drake

I still don’t get the hype for Drake. The falsetto “baby” in the chorus also never ceases to make me laugh.

85. Too Tough Terry - Dune Rats

Dunies slow descent from mature stoner pop to edgy tracks for teens has been hard to watch. This song just seems like a parody of the band.

84. Chicken Tenders - Dominic Fike

Has to be the sexiest song about the best thing in the frozen food section at the supermarket. Pity the album didn’t live up to the hype.

83. Down For You - Cosmo’s Midnight and Ruel

I was really keen for this once I heard about the collaboration between the two. Unfortunately it felt a little too much like a Ruel song and it doesn’t really feel like Cosmo’s Midnight had much of a touch on it.

82. The Clap - The Chats

It’s a bit generic for The Chats but I just like hearing them get more popular. Just hilarious dudes.

81. Weightless - Spacey Jane

One of the stronger and more unique tracks on Sunlight. The synth touches really suit the band.

80. Freaks - FISHER

Cannot wait for FISHER to just slowly fade away. His tracks all sound the same and are so basic.

79. my future - Billie Eilish

One of the best tracks Eilish has released. Love how this just turns halfway through from a really soft ballad to a bit of an electro pop song.

78. Lady Marmalade - G Flip

It’s a nice cover. The video of G Flip performing it though is really fun.

77. House Arrest - Sofi Tukker and Gorgon City

This song bangs pretty hard. I like a lot of Sofi Tukker have really been putting out some solid stuff.

76. Baby It’s You - London Grammar

This is a great track, that synth in the chorus is heavenly.

75. Photo ID - Remi Wolf

I do like this song but it reminds me of a track from the 80s or 90s and I can’t put my finger on what that track is.

74. Scream Drive Faster - LAUREL

When I first heard this I thought Ladyhawke was back in the mainstream. Little disappointed it wasn’t, but this slaps.

73. Don’t Need You - Genesis Owusu*

Possibly the best chorus of the year. Owusu has stepped up massively in the Australian Hip Hop scene.

72. Way Down - Ocean Alley

Ocean Alley have plateaued. ‘Lonely Diamond’ just felt like the band had become comfortable.

71. Obey - Bring Me The Horizon and YUNGBLUD

I just can’t take BMTH seriously anymore. They’re music has become so comically edgy.

70. Low - Chet Faker

Hey look, Nick Murphy has become Chet Faker again. Don’t know why he changes between the two when one is just slightly more soulful than the other, but he does release nice tunes.

69. Second - Hope D

I do like this female, Aussie version of Jamie T. It’s a really nice track. Also the number 69 is claimed by Hope D. haha.

68. Lie to Me - Vera Blue

I don’t know what it is exactly, but there’s something about Vera which just puts her on a different level than her counterparts. She’s just that consistently good.

67. Boss Bitch - Doja Cat

This track doesn’t get old for me. It’s so much fun, and Doja Cat owns it. Love it.

66. Fantasising - Skegss

This track really does have a very “Three Leaf Clover” vibe. I have enjoyed Skegss in the past but their new stuff hasn’t captured my attention really. Seems a bit run of the mill.

65. C’MON (feat. Travis Barker) - Amy Shark

I actually don’t mind this song, but why does it feature Travis Barker. It’s a piano ballad featuring a punk drummer, and he really doesn’t do that much. I’m confused, was he jealous of Mark Hoppus?

64. Soak Me In Bleach - The Amity Affliction

The song title reflects my thoughts when I hear that The Amity Affliction have released a new one. There are so many better Aussie metal bands out there.

63. Day & Age - Ball Park Music

BPM have a knack for writing amazing ballads. I wasn’t huge on their latest album, but tracks like this continue me having them in my good books.

62. Run - Joji

One of the best tracks Joji has released. A really mature song for the artist and a step in the right direction for him.

61. Pretty Grim - Ruby Fields

Ruby is good, but I feel she’s starting to release the same song over and over. Need something fresh.

60. Go (feat. Juice WRLD) - The Kid LAROI

Probably the strongest track by The Kid LAROI, but Juice WRLD outshines him just due to his vocal tone. He just sounds better.

59. Gimme Love - Joji

And that’s three for Joji. I really like how this song has two distinct sections and both are solid without overshadowing the other.

58. Fly Away - Tones and I

I still don’t get why Tones and I puts on that fake accent in her songs. It just detracts from what could be a nice pop song.

57. Sobercoaster - Beddy Rays

Really didn’t expect this to get so high. I’m happy though because it’s a really fun song.

56. On The Line - San Cisco

Tracks like this keep me invested in San Cisco. They can really release some brilliant stuff.

55. I Think You’re Great - Alex The Astronaut

The fine line between overly chessy and adorably optimistic is what Alex walks on with every track. I think this falls on the former side sadly.

54. Blue - Eiffel 65 (Flume Remix)

The fact that Flume puts so much of his identity into this remix is why Flume has been one of the most successful Aussie acts this past decade.

53. In Your Eyes - The Weeknd

If The Weeknd release ‘Blinding Lights’ a month later I’d believe that he would take out this countdown. He didn’t though and instead we are left with this solid track in the bottom 50.

52. The Glow - DMA’s

Why? Why did DMA’s have to get so poppy and generic. I loved their first two album, but I struggled to get through the third.

51. Your Love (Déjà Vu) - Glass Animals

Out of the three big hits the band had in 2020, this is the most underrated. There is so much going on here, yet it never feels muddled. Wavey Davey on fire here.

50. Nothing To Love About Love - Peking Duk and The Wombats

Although this is a nice song, there’s been so many 80s electro pop throwbacks recently that have been done better that this collab just fades into the background.

49. Wishing Well - Juice WRLD

This song is so beautiful and heart-breaking. Really shows why Juice WRLD became such a beloved artist so quickly.

48. Ain’t It Different (feat. AJ Tracey and Stormzy) - Headie One

This is a really cool collab. They use the Red Hot Chili Peppers sample so well and really flow so well with it that it feels almost effortless.

47. Animals - Architects

I like a lot about this track, but the chorus really hits another level. Feels cathartic to scream along to.

46. Pretty Lady - Tash Sultana

Was hoping Tash would move into a more psychedelic direction with their newer stuff, but this is still a fine track.

45. as long as you care - Ruel

A pretty by the books Ruel song, but he really does this style so well.

44. You & I - G Flip

Probably G Flips strongest release this year. The chorus has a lot of flavour.

43. together - Ziggy Alberts

Generic acoustic track by generic Byron Bay artist. He really took the cake this year for dumbest comparison, when he compared wearing a face mask to the holocaust. Thought he’d suffer a bit for it, but apparently his fanbase grew stronger.

42. WHATS POPPIN - Jack Harlow

Jack Harlow is just so much fun. He’s killing it, and WHATS POPPIN is proof of that. Keep the bangers coming Harlow.

41. I Still Dream About You - The Smith Street Band

I felt I was growing out of The Smith Street Band, their newer music just not resonating to me. Then they drop this and make me a big fan again.

40. Come & Go (with Marshmello) - Juice WRLD

Just that chorus. It is so enjoyable. He really was going places.

39. Righteous - Juice WRLD

A back to back, and from one of the more exciting songs on the album we get to one of the more sombre tracks. Everything from the guitar, the vocals, those synth notes. . . this track is just a perfect send off for the artist. R.I.P. Juice.

38. Parasite Eve - Bring Me The Horizon

This song is so unironically cringe and edgy that it somehow becomes ironically fun. It does the full circle.

37. SO DONE - The Kid LAROI

I do like The Kid LAROI, but his vocals on this, combined with the lyrics, just make him sound like a child chucking a temper tantrum. It does make me laugh though.

36. forget me too (feat. Halsey) - Machine Gun Kelly

If this song was released in the early 00s (where it belongs), it would’ve faded into oblivion. At least Halsey sounds pretty solid on her verse though.

35. Running Red Lights (feat. Rivers Cuomo & Pink Siifu) - The Avalanches*

My personal number one for the year. This song has that melancholic, nostalgic feel to it that just hits home every time. Also one of Cuomo’s strongest vocal performances.

34. Everybody Rise - Amy Shark

This song is fine. I wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to it, but it’s fun to sing-a-long to.

33. Breathe Deeper - Tame Impala

One of the best tracks from The Slow Rush. I love that piano motif throughout, and the bass is so funky. That weird bridge section towards the end is also pretty slick.

32. Criminals - DMA’s

The real criminals are the ones who told DMA’s this was a good idea. I just can’t get around their new stuff. I miss ‘Hill’s End’ and ‘For Now’.

31. Reasons - San Cisco

Tracks like this keep me from becoming a full time fan of San Cisco. They can really release some average stuff.

30. Bagi-la-m Bargan (feat. Fred Leone) - Birdz

Powerful. Birdz really took it to another level here.

29. Dribble - Sycco

Although I find there’s a lot of similar stuff out there, I think Sycco does sound like an original voice in the Australian music scene. She’s killing it.

28. Straightfaced - Spacey Jane

Although there was a lot of good stuff on Spacey Jane’s debut album, I found it to be quite repetitive. This track was one of the ones that I found to fade into the background instead of standing out.

27. Under the Thunder - Skegss

I really want to like Skegss, they’ve released some great tunes in the past. But this just doesn’t do it for me. It’s just boring.

26. No Plans To Make Plans - Lime Cordiale

Everything that makes new The Rubens tracks so average is presented here on a Lime Cordiale track. Obnoxiously quirky.

25. Reality Check Please - Lime Cordiale

Hey back to back Lime Cordiale tracks. And another one of their weaker ones. ‘Addicted to the Sunshine’ did this chorus better.

24. Blue World - Mac Miller

Didn’t expect this to make it so high but so well deserved. This song slaps hard but still continues the tragic story that is presented on his posthumous album ‘Circles’.

23. Good News - Mac Miller*

Back to back Mac! To be honest, I am close to tears every time this track plays. If only the lyrics “there's a whole lot more for me waiting/I know maybe I'm too late, I could make it there some other time/Then I'll finally discover/That it ain't that bad” were told to Mac before his passing, because he did have so much more to offer. R.I.P. Mac.

22. Complicated - Eves Karydas

This song is so good. I’ve heard it that many times but it still hasn’t lost its shine. So damn good.

21. Energy - KLP and Stace Cadet

I was really hoping this would crack top 20. Probably the best Dance track of the year. Such a jam.

20. Addicted To The Sunshine - Lime Cordiale

Despite thinking that ‘14 Steps To A Better Living’ didn’t have many new tracks that were that good on it, this one is nice. It’s just a pleasantly nice song.

19. You Should Be Sad - Halsey

I really don’t like Pop Country music but I also find it hilarious that the genre cracked the top 20. ‘09 Taylor Swift would be proud.

18. Tangerine - Glass Animals

With Tik Tok exploding in 2020 I don’t get how this didn’t get adopted by someone on it. It’s so primed to get hyped on it.

17. Is It True - Tame Impala

I think Kevin Parker’s vocals on this are underwhelming, but that might just be because the instrumental slaps that hard. The rhythm section is so tight.

16. Screw Loose - Lime Cordiale

This sound is what Lime Cordiale do best. We need more dub influence and less elevator pop influence.

15. Skin - Spacey Jane

No matter what you think about Spacey Jane, they sure do make some emotional tracks. One of the most powerful songs on Sunlight.

14. Tombstone - Ocean Alley

The verses are average and pretty bland but the chorus is amazing. Just don’t think the album resonated with me too much, and Tombstone is another mixed track off it.

13. Rockstar - Mallrat

Possibly Mallrat’s best song yet. Her laid back, relaxed style mixed with the low-fi production really meshes well.

12. Get on the Beers (feat. Dan Andrews) - Mashd N Kutcher

I’m not going to pretend this is my style, but the way this has resonated with Australians during lockdown last year makes the track way smarter than it deserves to be. It’s both ironically and unironically good.

11. On Our Own - Lime Cordiale

I’m happy the three best new tracks of Lime Cordiale’s debut were the highest placing in this countdown. This really is a nice song.

10. Therefore I Am - Billie Eilish

Not my favourite songs from Billie but she continues to be consistently good. The production on this is immense as well.

9. I’m Good? - Hilltop Hoods

I wish old school Hilltop could hear this so could prevent themselves every going this direction. Aussie Hip Pop is not a good genre. This is one of their worst tracks yet.

8. Sending Me Ur Loving - The Jungle Giants*

This song has so much flavour too it. It’s so funky and fun and the production is so tight. Also the guitar work is underrated here, not doing much but adding that icing on the cake.

7. Hyperfine - G Flip

Every time I hear this track (and I’ve heard it a lot) I completely forget about it a couple minutes later. G Flip is good, but this is forgettable.

6. WAP (feat. Megan Thee Stallion) - Cardi B

I understand if this isn’t your style, but I love it. I don’t think there’s ever been a song with so many quotable moments. Every line makes a statement that will get in your head. My personal favourite? “ I let him taste it, now he diabetic”.

5. Lost In Yesterday - Tame Impala

There’s a lot of songs on ‘The Slow Rush’ I like, but Lost In Yesterday I’ve always found kinda boring. It feels a little uninspired. Surprised that this was the album’s big hit.

4. Cherub - Ball Park Music*

BPM have released some great music over the decade but I think this is their best yet. It’s beautiful, emotional and has a fantastic, cathartic breakdown at the end. I love a good build up.

3. The Difference (feat. Toro y Moi) - Flume*

Everything about this track is why Flume has been so great for so long. This track is great for any situation. If I’m partying, I play it. If I’m relaxing, I play it. If I’m getting pumped up, I play it. If I’m sad, I play it. Flexibility matters.

2. Booster Seat - Spacey Jane

OHHH-OH-OHHHHHHHH AND IT FEELS LIKE THAT AGAIN! One of the best sing-a-long tracks of the year, yet massively emotional. Like damn this song is rough.

1. Heat Waves - Glass Animals*

If I had one word to express how I feel about this winning I would say “deserved”. Not many tracks were as perfect for 2020 as this one. Glass Animals love writing absolute bangers with emotional cores and this one is one of their strongest tracks. Glass Animals just continue to outdo themselves.

That’s it for now, gonna maybe start posting again. I dunno. See how I feel. Ta-ta.
