MY IDEAL WOW HITS TRACKLISTS: POST 4- WOW HITS 2011

If you have been an avid fan of this site, you probably would have noticed that we have posted many WOW Hits predictions at strategic points during the year for a particular installment. But this was only for WOW Hits 2015 onwards (basically from when this site was active four years ago until now!). So it’s time to once again revisit another older WOW Hits and be nostalgic, and see if the track listing is really the ‘year’s best’ or not (as we have done previously for WOW Hits 2009WOW Hits 2013 and WOW Hits 2004!). So…you can view the official track list of WOW Hits 2011 on Wikipedia, and then my fantasy list below (which include some tracks the same as the official list, and some tracks different)!

FIRST IMPRESSION REVIEW – BLANCA’S “SHATTERED”

Group 1 Crew has always been one of my favourite artists- though it was only when the band released their 2010 album Outta Space Love that I truly became a fan. With their music always comprising of several genres (pop, CCM, rap, hip-hop, and a combination of all of the above!), songs like “Please Don’t Let Me Go”, “Live It Up”, “Walking On The Stars”, “Need Your Love”, “Beautiful”, “Lean On Me”, “He Said” all from the trio’s third album; have reminded me of their near flawless prowess as songwriters, performers and entertainers.
