2. California King Bed
“California King Bed” came out in 2011 as the sixth (sixth!) single from Rihanna’s fifth album, Loud. But the song struggled on the Hot 100 chart, peaking at 37. It did go to number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart, but this is hardly a banger. The song is actually a ballad, complete with piano keys and acoustic guitars, and is full of heartbreaking yearning as Rihanna sings about the growing distance in a relationship. And yes, there’s a big bed in the video.
