Best Songs of the 2010s

The Top Ten
1 Uptown Funk - Mark Ronson

This should be number one because it’s one of the underrated songs that topped the Hot 100 for a LONG time, just as long as I Gotta Feeling and We Belong Together were number one, and people call songs like those overrated!

The only song I can listen to over and over and enjoy it like it's the first time I heard it

Sounds like something MJ would have done. Definitely one of the best of this decade thus far (posted in August 2018).

Get this up into the top 10, we need a song to break up the rock crowd.

2 Rolling in the Deep - Adele

99% of this decades songs are horrible, but Adele was one of the few exceptions.

not 99% silly -_- But at least we have Ed Sheeran, Eminem, Bruno Mars, Coldplay, and more.

3 The Rains of Castamere - Jackie Evancho

A girl of 14 performing a song literally bragging about slaughtering an entire family yeah that's very Game of Thrones.

From "Game Of Thrones".
Dark and haunting, yet beautiful vocals that this girl was born to sing.

This interesting track from the monumental album "Awakening" gets a haunting yet exquisite treatment from Jackie.

I love Jackie Evancho's version of this theme.

4 Somebody That I Used to Know - Gotye

Is nothing like pretty much any other song this decade. The fact that it was the #1 song of 2012 is astonishing

Correction it's Sombody I Used to Know. Still a modern day classic in the making reguardless.

They just don't make em like this anymore!

Best song I ever heard

5 Nightmare - Avenged Sevenfold

Great song that is awesome in every meaning of the word. Deserves to be number 1 on the list and still better than all the overrated pop/rap garbage that is on this list

You're joking! Number 11? This song kicks too much ass and it sounds much much better than all the songs on this list!

6 Do I Wanna Know? - Arctic Monkeys

The most badass song of 2013

This song sounded cool.

7 Distant Sky - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
8 Someone Like You - Adele

Needs to be no1, the song to every break up

9 Not Afraid - Eminem

This song is awesome. Recovery was a great album and this song and love the way you lie are awesome this one’s better and probably my favourite song ever

#85? This is the best song from the best artist

By the rap god

10 The Blacker the Berry - Kendrick Lamar
The Contenders
11 See You Again - Wiz Khalifa
12 Runaway - Kanye West

Bohemian rhapsody of our generation

Definition of a masterpiece

13 Team - Lorde

One of the best female artists

14 Blackstar - David Bowie
15 All of Me - John Legend
16 Spit Out the Bone - Metallica

Indeed this is one of the best songs of this decade! Metallica is back at it, producing what could be a "modern classic"!

Metallica is back!

Thrash returned!

17 Waiting for the End - Linkin Park

What this is the best song released in that year

No way Nightmare is anywhere near it

Just Listen before voting...

Definitely no. 1 Material

18 Gold on the Ceiling - The Black Keys
19 Ride - Twenty One Pilots
20 Love the Way You Lie - Eminem

Should be higher than all of these songs it's amazing

21 Counting Stars - OneRepublic
22 Wheel of Time - Blind Guardian

Underrated masterpiece that should be number 1 if you listen to this and tell me its bad you have no good taste in music

#358? Oh... Guys, do yourself a favour and give a listen to this masterpiece.

Needs to be number 1

Yay! It's number 4 now!

23 Wake Me Up - Avicii

Great man. Gone to soon. Doo Doo doo-doo Doo Doo doo-doo Doo doo-doo Doo Doo doo-doo Doo

24 Paradise - Coldplay

Amazing song! My favourite of the 2010s for sure.
The singing, piano melody, drums, the organ, keyboard and the orchestra in the background all combine to make this a wonderful song. The song starts with a short organ solo before jumping into a somewhat quiet piano-singing section with thundering drums before jumping into the main chorus, drowned out by the intense power of the organ and orchestra. After this the song cleverly utilized the loud-quiet strategy while keeping the drums satisfyingly loud and thundering on, with violins flying up and down octaves in the background. An amazing song, a musical masterpiece!

I'd like to know why is Katy Perry higher than Coldplay

25 Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair - Arctic Monkeys

I love to see Arctic Monkeys so high (I think they deserve the #1 stop) but I don't understand why this song? It's good, but Arctic Monkeys has done so much better the past 5 years than this, listen to 20 seconds of Knee Socks, Do I Wanna Know or No. 1 party anthem and be blown away.

A British song from an awesome British band. Arctic Monkeys are here to stay. Without these guys there probably would be no Automatic or Fratellis.

This is certainally a fresh sound from an equally fresh british band. Anything that puts a nail in generic pop's coffin can only be a good thing.
