bluechemtrails 26,770 Posted January 2 What were the best singles of the past year? I've created a list that takes into account both streaming numbers from Spotify and user ratings from albumoftheyear.org (the number of ratings also played a role). I tried to include as much of the best rated singles (with a rating of 80 or higher) as possible, also from the year end lists and the most streamed songs. Again I was very strict and excluded all songs marked as 'explicit' (A&W unfortunately too) and certain genres (such as hip-hop, rap and metal), also songs that I generally did't like (there were only a few). Here are the first 30 single songs of my list: Spoiler My Love Mine All Mine - Mitski What Was I Made For? - Billie Eilish Kill Bill - SZA Moonlight - Kali Uchis Say Yes To Heaven - Lana Del Rey Houdini - Dua Lipa Not Strong Enough - boygenius I Wish you Roses - Kali Uchis Now And Then - The Beatles The Grants - Lana Del Rey Dance The Night - Dua Lipa Can't Catch Me Now - Olivia Rodrigo Speed Drive - Charli XCX Heaven - Mitski Cupid - Twin Ver. - FIFTY FIFTY Begin Again - Jessie Ware Star - Mitski So You Are Tired - Sufjan Stevens Running Out Of Time - Paramore Infinity Repeating (2013 Demo) - Daft Punk Oral - Björk, Rosalia Vampire Empire - Big Thief No More Lies - Thundercat, Tame Impala Bending Hecting - The Smile $20 - boygenius Capable of love - PinkPantheress From The Start - Laufey Will Anybody Ever Love Me? - Sufjan Stevens You're Losing Me (From The Vault) - Taylor Swift A Night To Remember - beabadoobee, Laufey 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
