Every year we always say “X was a great year for music.” But what if I were to tell you that 2016 has been a bummer year for music?

So Danny and Sandys out there, I counter you with a list of great songs that focus more on the bit where the boy you thought was your summer squeeze, pretends not to know you at the bonfire party, or the roof party or whatever.
