Best Chart Hits in 2016

I suppose everyone loves and listens to music. As we all know, 2016 has been such a great year of music, many unexpected ones became chart topper, and some became the true representative of 2016. From Adele "Hello" to Pikotaru's "PPAP", here are the list of 2016 best chart hits:

1. Work - Rihanna and Drake

Who doesn't know this song? Well, unless you're a new born baby, of course you know this song. This song hits everywhere, and of course, it is a controversial hits. Many young children pay attention to this song and they sang it loudly without knowing the actual explicit meaning of the song. Despite its explicit meaning, "Work" has been such a tremendous #1 holder on Hot 100, it stayed on top of the chart for 8 consecutive weeks, that is a very long period of time. 

2. 7 Years - Lukas Graham

Everyone knows this song and it fits those who were born in 1970s since the song has similar melody with the songs from 70s. You know, whenever I listen to this song, I always remember summer 2016, idk why. 

3. Can't Stop the Feeling - Justin Timberlake

A great happy anthem from Trolls movie. Everyone likes this song, and many put it in their list of favorite song of 2016. This  hit peaked at #2 on Hot 100, and won many children's hearts. Justin Timberlake really made a comeback on top with this song in 2016.

4. Roses - The Chainsmokers and ROZES

I remember listening to this song the first time in the beginning of 2016. The anthem was so incredibly irresistible when I first heard it, just a different kind of dance anthem to start 2016. This song peaked at #8 on Hot 100, and The Chainsmokers will definitely hit 2016 with other anthems.

5. Closer - The Chainsmokers and Hasley

Iconic song of 2016, it held the #1 spot on Hot 100 for 10 consecutive weeks, just 6 more weeks and it will dethrone Mariah Carey's One Sweet Day. Closer is a very great dance song for me personally, I fell in love with it the first time I heard it. Idk how they did it, but it really represent 2016 for me. Such an incredible song it is.

6. Side to Side - Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj

Hit song that peaked at #6 on Hot 100 and stays at the top 20 of the chart until today. The last time Nicki and Ariana hit the chart was in 2014, with their hir "BangBang" featuring Jessie J. Last year, they made a comeback together with Side to Side, a catchy pop song with appealing sex on the music video. Just a Nicki Minaj classic.

7. Cheap Thrills - Sia

No one expect Sia would finally gained her first ever #1 single on Hot 100 in 2016. Yup, Cheap Thrills stays atop the chart for 4 consecutive weeks, and is one of Sia's best song. The last time Sia appeared on the top 10 was in 2014, with her hit "Chandelier" which peaked at #8. 

8. Work from Home - Fifth Harmony and Ty Dolla $ign

This one also represents 2016 the most for me. In 2015 Fifth Harmony made their first debut on the top 20 with their hit "Worth It" which also become international hit. And then this year, they did it, they made it to the top 10, well to the top 5 indeed, with "Work from Home" and spent many weeks atop the chart. 

9. Cold Water - Justin Bieber, MO, and Major Lazer

The last time Major Lazer hit the chart was in 2015, with his hit "Lean On" which also featured MO in it. Last year, they made a comeback with "Cold Water", only this time Bieber was featured in it too. The song peaked at the top 5 of Hot 100 and stayed there for quite long time. I also fell in love to this song the moment I listened to it the first time. 

10. Let Me Love You - DJ Snake and Justin Bieber

You know, you can say that 2016 has also the year of Justin Bieber. Yup, he hit the chart again, this time with DJ Snake. Let Me Love You compete Cold Water on the chart. It's very rare to see songs by the same singer respectively hit the chart. Only few could do that, Mariah Carey and Taylor Swift for example, they had their singles in #1 and #2 at the same time.

So those are the top 10 for me, there are more actually:
