Look, Carly Rae Jepsen Devoted is full of bops and we chose "Too Much". Ask us tomorrow and we will choose another song. May surprised us with a reinvention of Jarvis Cocker, Sleater-Kinney's flashback and the discovery of Baby Rose's remarkable voice. But artists like The National and Juanes (with the help of Alessia Cara) have given us reasons to reconsider their favorites.
