67. The xx, "On Hold"

66. Brett Young, “In Case You Didn't Know”  

65. Harry Styles, "Two Ghosts"

64. Prince Royce feat. Shakira, "Deja Vu"

63. Anne-Marie, "Ciao Adios"

62. U2, "You’re The Best Thing About Me"

61. Clean Bandit feat. Zara Larsson, "Symphony"

 

 

   J. Balvin & Willy William, "Mi Gente"

An addicting and infectious song, the beat is almost impossible to resist. That cheap remix was really bad though (sorry Bey).

 

 

 

 

  Taylor Swift, "Look What You Made Me Do"

I had mixed feelings about this song but I guess it was a grower. It has a great production and the "I'm Too Sexy" sample works very well here. 

 

 

 

 

  Kelly Clarkson, "Move You" 

Kelly released this song as the A-Side Single of "Love So Soft". She showed again that she's one of the best vocalists in music industry (see her Nashville Sessions performance) and that she really does justice to this pop-soul genre she wanted to do with her last album.

 

 

 

 

  Kendrick Lamar feat. Zacari, "LOVE."

One of my favorite songs from DAMN. and it shows a different side of Kendrick. I'm glad it became a single and it recently got a music video too.

 

 

 

 

  Bebe Rexha, "I Got You"

The first song I really liked from Bebe and the first one where she shows some pop star potential. 

 

 

 

 

  Charlie Puth, "Attention"

Charlie has shown some growth with the music he has released this year. Attention is one of his best works.

 

 

 

 

  SZA, "Drew Barrymore"

SZA is my favorite new artist of the year. She's really talented and "Drew Barrymore" is one of my faves from her debut album.

 

 

 

 

  Sam Smith, "One Last Song" 

The male Adele is back this year with his second album. "One Last Song" is an excellent choice for a second single and it would probably be much higher if it wasn't too new.

 

 

 

  Katy Perry feat. Skip Marley, "Chained To The Rhythm"

"Chained To The Rhythm" had good intentions and even when it failed as a "woke" anthem I think the song was good and the video was even better.

 

 

 

 

  French Montana feat. Swae Lee, "Unforgettable"

I like the beat of this song and Swae Lee basically owns the whole thing even when it's a French Montana single.

   Maren Morris, "I Could Use a Love Song"

This song is Maren's only entry this year and it's one of her best works. She has become in one of my current favorite country artists. Last year she was in my top 20 with her first single "My Church".

 

 

 

 

  G-Eazy feat. A$AP Rocky & Cardi B, "No Limit"

One of the best rap collaborations of the year. Cardi B and A$AP Rocky have the best parts of the song.  

 

 

 

 

  Ariana Grande & John Legend, "Beauty and the Beast" 

"Beauty and the Beast" is one of my favorite soundtrack songs of all time. This version obviously doesn't touch the greatness of the original version (by Celine Dion & Peabo Bryson) but Ariana and John Legend did a good job with their version.

 

 

 

 

  Rita Ora, "Your Song"

"Your Song" was a great comeback single for Rita (well at least in the UK). Ed Sheeran shows again that he's a hitmaker not only for himself but also for another artists. This is her second entry and there's another one left coming maybe anywhere in the top 20?  

 

 

 

 

  Shakira feat. Nicky Jam, "Perro Fiel"

After Chantaje this was the best single choice left in her last album "El Dorado". (I pretend that "Me Enamoré" never happened).

 

 

 

 

  Miranda Lambert, "Tin Man"

Miranda is one of my favorite country female artists currently (her last album is one of her best works). This song is not as great as the first single "Vice" but it's still very good and it's a shame that it didn't get a proper video. Here you can check a live performance of the song at the ACM Awards:

 

 

 

 

  Zayn feat. Sia, "Dusk Till Dawn"

This collaboration with Sia is the best song Zayn released this year. I feel like he wasted his potential but I still hope he can release his second album soon because his debut was really good.

 

 

 

 

  Shania Twain, "Life's About To Get Good" 

Finally the Queen of Country-Pop was back this year. It wasn't the comeback I was expecting but I still liked the song even when her voice isn't what it used to be. The video is also really good. 

 

 

 

  Lady Gaga, "The Cure"

When I first heard this song I wasn't too impressed but I ended up liking it. A music video for this would have been a great idea and maybe it would have done better. 

 

 

 

 

  Kesha, "Praying"

Kesha sent a powerful message with her comeback single. It was very different from what she had done in the past and it really worked for her.
