best of P!nk Forever‘s Top 100 Decade of 2010—2019 Countdown! #FIN

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: KIESZA

SONG: HIDEAWAY

ALBUM: Hideaway

YEAR: 2014

GENRE: Dance/Electronic

STORY: An energetic song with an incredible danceable attitude. Remarkable and a should be in every decade's list.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: CALVIN HARRIS & DUA LIPA

SONG: ONE KISS

ALBUM: Dua Lipa

YEAR: 2017

GENRE: Eurodance/Pop

STORY: I heard this on a fashion show in a city near mine and fell in love. You can say what you want about Calvin Harris but musically he's on top with these type of tunes and Dua adds that special something.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: SLEIGH BELLS

SONG: RILL RILL

ALBUM: Treats

YEAR: 2010

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: I have a dozen of songs from Sleigh Bells in my Spotify library but I think I've played this one more than others because it's not as noisy or louder at all.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: BISHOP BRIGGS

SONG: RIVER

ALBUM: River

YEAR: 2016

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: P!nk played this song on a few gigs before she released "Beautiful Trauma", so of course I had to check this qualitative track out. To some it may just be screaming along to a track - to me it is art.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THE WEEKND

SONG: I FEEL IT COMING

ALBUM: Starboy

YEAR: 2016

GENRE: Disco/Pop

STORY: Normally I'm not into R&B of all sorts at all but as you can see in my Top 100 one and another of these tracks sneaked inside because I may have heard them on the radio and liked them all of a sudden. Same what happened to Lizzo or Drake in that aspect. The Weeknd has something in his voice that is pretty charming which is a bonus if you ask me.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THOM YORKE

SONG: SUSPIRIUM

ALBUM: Suspiria

YEAR: 2018

GENRE: Dance/Electronic

STORY: I watched the new Suspiria and of course the title track has struck me. It makes me melancholic and thoughtful.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: FLORENCE + THE MACHINE

SONG: SHIP TO WRECK

ALBUM: How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful

YEAR: 2015

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: There were many Florence songs to choose from but in the end I tended more and more to "Ship". If you don't know the lyrics at all you could come up with silly theories. Like who the hell is Rick?

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THE BLACK KEYS

SONG: GO

ALBUM: Eagle Birds

YEAR: 2019

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: Now this was the perfect soundtrack for my summer this year. The Black Keys hardly disappoint with their latest efforts.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: GOSSIP

SONG: PERFECT WORLD

ALBUM: A Joyful Noise

YEAR: 2012

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: Another song where I was torn between choosing this and a couple of others from Gossip but I ended up with "Perfect World" because it is the most powerful.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THE BLACK ANGELS

SONG: DON'T PLAY WITH GUNS

ALBUM: Don't Play With Guns

YEAR: 2013

GENRE: Psychedelic Rock/Rock

STORY: I was looking for songs for my AHS: Cult playlist. Isn't it just perfect for central characters like Ally Mayfair-Richards or Beverly Hope? Even Meadow Wilton if you ask me. If you don't know what I'm talking about, go watch this season.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THE GREATEST SHOWMAN CAST

SONG: A MILLION DREAMS

ALBUM: The Greatest Showman O.S.T.

YEAR: 2017

GENRE: Musical

STORY: I can't tell which version I like more. While P!nk throws in her usual vocal skills I'm intrigued with the variety of different voices in the original. And Hugh Jackman does really have a great voice.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: M.I.A.

SONG: BORDERS

ALBUM: AIM

YEAR: 2016

GENRE: Dance/Electronic

STORY: A great track from an exceptional artist. The lyrics are political but from an honest point of view. 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: DUM DUM GIRLS

SONG: LOST BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB

ALBUM: In the Wake of You

YEAR: 2013

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: I got to know this brilliant track from an episode in AHS: Hotel. It was in a scene where John went out for a drink at Liz's bar. And it's such an anthem.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: ARCADE FIRE

SONG: THE SUBURBS

ALBUM: The Suburbs

YEAR: 2010

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: This is such a chill track that it surprises me that I ranked it so high. But it's really worth of its position. I don't even mind the high singing.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: SIA

SONG: CHANDELIER

ALBUM: Chandelier

YEAR: 2014

GENRE: Pop

STORY: I think everyone was fascinated how a pop girl could land a hit without showing her face. Sometimes music doesn't need a face if you wanna feel it. I think there are like 10 Sia songs in my Spotify library but of course this classic stays superior.

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: WRABEL

SONG: THE VILLAGE

ALBUM: The Village

YEAR: 2017

GENRE: Pop

STORY: I've never heard of Wrabel before. Not after I got to acknowledge that he was collaborating with P!nk on "Hurts 2B Human". So I had to check him out and "The Village" was a surprisingly good song about a transgender person struggling in life. That video is worth a watch.

 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: YOU+ME

SONG: LOVE GONE WRONG

ALBUM: rose ave.

YEAR: 2014

GENRE: Folk/Indie

STORY: This collaboration project between P!nk and Dallas Green (City and Colour) came out to be pretty much as a surprise. I picked their best song on their first album and I'm looking forward to their next.

 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: THRICE

SONG: IN THIS STORM

ALBUM: Palms - Deeper Wells EP

YEAR: 2019

GENRE: Rock

STORY: Thrice is a band that has been out longer before I knew it. Again I was collecting songs for my AHS: Cult playlist and "Black Honey" was a perfect match for it. Their latest EP which came out this year is in my opinion better than most of their catalogue. Maybe because it's more mainstream than their other stuff which I simply can't get into besides "Honey". "Storm" has a nice ending. Check it out.

 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: WHITE LIES

SONG: DENIAL

ALBUM: FIVE

YEAR: 2019

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: I was checking out some Alternative playlists and this tune struck me to the fullest. It's a great car track to listen to and the climax kinda stays unreached if we compare other genre songs to it.

 

 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: VIAGRA BOYS

SONG: WORMS

ALBUM: Street Worms

YEAR: 2018

GENRE: Alternative/Indie

STORY: It's on my bucket list to have that song being played at my funeral. The lyrics are filled with black sarcasm that it's hard to avoid its brilliancy.

 

 

[P!nk Forever]

ARTIST: DIE ANTWOORD

SONG: ALIEN

ALBUM: Mount Ninji and da Nice Time Kid

YEAR: 2016

GENRE: Dance/Electronic

STORY: I have a few Die Antwoord songs in my library but "Alien" is actually their best because A) it doesn't feature Ninja whose rap would honestly destroy such a perfect track and B) it tells a story many of us can relate with. It also features one of my favorite Kurt Cobain quotes which I love about it.
