Looking forward to it

#100. Nothing Breaks Like A Heart - Mark Ronson ft. Miley Cyrus

Mark Ronson & Miley Cyrus' collab wasn't as upbeat as many thought it would be.

Yet, it turned out to be a quality release.  

Not to mention, the video made it more beautiful.

Had I been given more time to enjoy this bop, it would be placed higher than it is.

Thanks. Stay tuned.

#99. Morph - Twenty One Pilots

Who needs chart success and how Jumpsuit flopped, when they served a quality work?

Morph is perhaps, one of the best b-sides of the album and of the year.  

Only a few b-sides made it to the list, making Morph a special entry.

[TayRianaPH]

#98. Bad At Love - Halsey

This is not the highest-charting Halsey track here.

The video made it a whole lot better, but the song alone is decent too.  

2018 has been a good year for Halsey in her quality of releases.

 

[kelly-clarkson]

I love the production of Nothing Breaks Like A Heart!

Bad At Love

[TayRianaPH]

#97. Missing U - Robyn

Did the Queen disappoint? Absolutely nah.

Just as I ventured to new types of music, I bumped into this song, and guess what? I got hooked to it until today!  

This one is a standout from her and rightfully makes it to the Top 100.

Glad we agree.  Miley pulled that jam off!  

[TayRianaPH]

#96. Queen - Tracey Thorn

With US Pop tanking in quality, 2018 introduced me to many ARTISTS.

Tracey was one of them,  and this song, Queen, is a masterpiece.  

[TayRianaPH]

#95. Caught In The Middle - Paramore

If you followed my 2017 Best Of, you'll know After Laughter was one of my 2017's Best Album.

This one may not be may favorite single off of it, but it definitely BANGS, and is still good enough to land in the Top 100.  

 

[Staryu]

NBLaH, Bad At Love, Caught in the Middle, and Missing U  good taste so far  

[TayRianaPH]

#94. Ashes - Celine Dion

Soundtracks kinda saved US Pop in 2018.

Celine Dion for Deadpool may seem unexpected, but the resulting song is good!

That's 4/6 so far.  

Tell me, are the 2 songs not your taste? Or have you not heard of it yet?  

[TayRianaPH]

#93. Lovely - Billie Eilish & Khalid

As a new fan of unpopular music, this team-up between two of new artists to me was intriguing.

Lovely wasn't a catch on first listen, but captivated me after a few more listens.  

Now, it has been one of my most played tracks. The duo seems to be effective in here.

[TayRianaPH]

#92. Eastide - Benny Blanco, Halsey, & Khalid

Halsey & Khalid on their 2nd entries already.  

I feel like, granted with luck, this song will blow up in 2019 and be a #1 contender.  

It has the perfect 2018 hit formula: hunting melody & not-so-pop hook.

[Kevin2803]

Nothing Breaks Like a Heart & Lovely 

[TayRianaPH]

#91. Dance To This - Ariana Grande & Troye Sivan

Well, this choice may be unpopular, but subtle bops were more of my thing this year.

This one was chill and minimal, but it's solidly packed for my liking.  

[Kevin2803]

Dance To This 

 

Why unpopular? I saw it on a lot of lists.

Oh really? Good to know, I have not visited any threads yet.  

Perhaps, because I believe it's an underrated track elsewhere...

Nice set Missing U is probably my favorite here. Haven't heard of Queen, I'll give that a listen.
