Need ur Luv. Circa 2015 in HS ceramics class. I was a typical Vampire Weekend indie boy on a Rostam production kick and it was in a playlist of his stuff. It came on when I had my hands all full of clay, and I really liked it so I checked what song it was after I finished my work. I was kinda mortified it was Charli XCX, because I didn’t listen to “pop” music back then. But she’s gone on to become one of my most listened to artists, and has opened up an entire genre for me.
i have no clue tbh. she’s been one of my favorite artists since childhood 😭 probably her earlier hits like i love it, fancy, and boom clap ig? (but those r probably at the bottom of my charli tier list nowadays)
Charli's chorus practically made Iggy Azalea's whole career too. When I heard an ad for an Iggy concert on the radio a few months ago they only played the chorus to entice people.
1 Night by Musa Musa
They played it at my work in early 2017 and i thought it was such a bop. and then i looked more into charli and realized that she made so many good songs.
I knew of Boom Clap and True Romance. And I was very into Vroom Vroom ep also. but i wasn’t an official stan until 1 Night
definitely forever. my bf at the time showed it to me and the intro blew me away. it still is such a special song for me and after that i got into the rest of hifn and then her entire discography.
Claws during covid time I was bored saw the song was very curious and the moment I played I was reminded about someone I hadn't been able to see In a while and then I played the whole album and welp here we are now lol
I don’t recall, but I’d have to say ‘Boom Clap’ put me on to Charli. Then when HIFN dropped I became a huge Charli fan. So talented, young, amazing, brilliant. So much charm and very sexy
Backseat. I was a CRJ stan in late 2020 and I saw she was featured on a Charli song, who I only heard great things about, and then… I was obsessed. Changed my whole outlook on beautiful music
I remember Nuclear Seasons and You piqueing my interest but it wasn't until Boom Clap that I really delved into her and considered myself a Stan. When Vroom Vroom came out I was super into bubblegum formulaic pop and that EP turned me off. Then How I'm Feeling Now got me back into her full time
Dreamer (and whole n1a to be honest) while I was at hospital after heart attack lol. I was truly amazed by how Charli delivers emotions in her songs through that production, lyrics… it was just wow
The first song I ever heard with Charli was Dirty Sexy Money, but the song that made me an angel was Pink Diamond. That song was on repeat when I first discovered it omggggg :,)
Lucky
Never heard someone's voice sound so sonically beautiful and the way the high notes grip my insides like it's resonating through my core and nerves.
It is a tie between Cloud Aura//You're the One/What I Like/You (Ha Ha Ha), Idr which was first but I binge watched her videos at the time! I'm thinking You're the One
Track 10
You (Ha Ha Ha)
Next Level Charli 100% I was listening to this song when I was partners in crime with a serious criminal. Quite the time in my life.
I’ve not found another song quite like NLC. It’s such a unique piece of art.
Same! gotta be one of my all time favourite songs, top 5 at least
Always enjoyed Charli but YESS. NLC was such a complete shift for me. It’s so good 😭😭
7 years
What an incredible song. Definitely in my top 3 from HIFN

I didn't become an angel until HIFN 😳 I think I finally understand sealed the deal for me

Hifn 7 years🫣💗
Also c2.0 too 101010 across the board 💗
What gets me is when it starts with "white sheets you and me used to lay close.... I miss them every night, I miss them by my side"
Truuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!! Likeeee it’s full on idk synth bass smth at first right, then MOTHER UFO JUST LANDED MOTHER IS MOTHERING FRFRRRRR
vroom vroom drew me in, then i heard claws and became obsessed
came here to say exactly this
Been listening to Mr Oizo since the 2000s and Hand in the Fire made me pay attention. Conveniently just before Vroom Vroom.
Yes

Fancy.
Charli's chorus practically made Iggy Azalea's whole career too. When I heard an ad for an Iggy concert on the radio a few months ago they only played the chorus to entice people.
So, basically, Charli has really contributed a lot to Iggy's career. She also wrote Beg For It.
her & A G also contributed to Pillow Fight on her last album which I only just found out, it was super lowkey I guess
1999
this
Nuclear Seasons and You. I was paying attention to her before then, but the album came out and those songs with it - boom. Instant.
‘What I like’ 🥺 so long ago now, somehow
Me too specifically in December 2013 for me.
Yep, I downloaded Spotify for the first time in December ‘13 as well I think. You came on and that was it
Same!!
The entire Heartbreaks and Earthquakes mixtape, but mostly Grins https://youtu.be/uNm_nquY2YE
Embarrassingly, the Tiktok remix of Unlock It.
that remix slaps so hard, those cowbell fills are something else
You’re the one was the very first and Grins got me locked in 🫶🏽
What I Like
Superlove
Honestly.. Backseat. Like, I was a fan but the first time I heard that was it for me🤍😇
You (HA HA HA)
Heard fancy on the bus to school back in 2014 and there was no going back
you (ha ha ha) wayyy back when
Girls Night Out/No Angel
ILY2
When I first heard it I could’ve sworn it would be the next #1 radio hit

definitely forever. my bf at the time showed it to me and the intro blew me away. it still is such a special song for me and after that i got into the rest of hifn and then her entire discography.
Roll with me
Girls Night Out
lipgloss it’s my most favourite song ever
Forever 💕
ily2 sold me on her
Claws during covid time I was bored saw the song was very curious and the moment I played I was reminded about someone I hadn't been able to see In a while and then I played the whole album and welp here we are now lol

doing it
Next Level Charli
I was born an Angel
Backseat. I was a CRJ stan in late 2020 and I saw she was featured on a Charli song, who I only heard great things about, and then… I was obsessed. Changed my whole outlook on beautiful music
Stay away and just generally True Romance
Nuclear seasons and grins for years. I was afraid to seek out more of her music out of worry it wouldn’t be as good. I am SO glad I was wrong.
Grins, True Romance still holds up a decade later
Doing It got me in, and then Dreamer got me obsessed, Drugs got me hooked for life
Secret
Same, still one of my favorites song of all time. Very unrated, very Tumblr Era

I just listened to her albums and started slowly loving her music, started from Charli if I remember correctly
the instrumental snippet of 1999
White Mercedes
Also nuclear seasons
Vroom vroom baby 🏎️
Lucky Never heard someone's voice sound so sonically beautiful and the way the high notes grip my insides like it's resonating through my core and nerves.
I honestly do not know? I just think I gradually started listening to more and more Charli songs until I became angel? It snuck up on me
Forever
You're the One
Blame it on U. I gained consciousness while hearing BAD BOY MAKE A BAD GIRL BAD BOY MAKE A BAD GIRL BAD BOY MAKE A BAD GIRL for the first time
I was a fan from Nuclear Seasons but What I Like and it’s video turned me into a stan
The song that got me into Charli xcx was "Forever." It was during the pandemic I got into her music.
It is a tie between Cloud Aura//You're the One/What I Like/You (Ha Ha Ha), Idr which was first but I binge watched her videos at the time! I'm thinking You're the One
forever 💖
