Top 10 Best Songs of 2020

Saying Dimash Kudaibergen is a great singer is an understatement of the century. Dimash is the vocal talent of a great generation of artists. His vocals are one of a kind and unlike any other. This man has a range of six octaves, and he can pull off any song effortlessly. He can make you feel emotions like no one else can. To this day, I still get goosebumps after he sings. This song is incredible. He pulls it off so nicely. This song is one of his best works, and I'm happy for him. He is the king of vocals!

I'm sure many people think Dimash is overrated and that his songs shouldn't rank this high. To those people, that's respectable. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinions. However, what people shouldn't do is deny facts, such as the fact that Dimash is one of the best vocalists ever. Impressively, he never uses autotune and has been professionally training his voice for about 20 years. This song may not have the best lyrics or music, but it is definitely the most well-sung, all thanks to Dimash.

In general, people find very well-sung songs to be the best. Although it's not his best cover, it's my favorite of 2020. I really recommend that anyone who hasn't heard Dimash listen to one of his covers and research more about him. As you can probably see, many people have already given their recommendations and some information on him, myself included. I would watch his covers of Diva Dance, Daybreak, or Sinful Passion.

This track slaps so hard.

It may have some dumb lyrics, and Juice WRLD shouldn't be exploited, but Marshall had already taken his audio before he died anyway.

Because of the 40-second flamethrower at the end, catchy beat, a decent chorus from Jarrad, and of course the Hey, fray ajajajaj, I have to give this a vote.

Definitely recommend it.

As much as I hate how many mainstream artists are using Juice WRLD's voice posthumously as a way to sell more tracks, this song is straight fire. Eminem was smoother here than he was in Rap God. The lyrics are meh, but the beat is unique. Juice WRLD does a good job on the choruses, and Marshall excels in the final delivery. Definitely worth the listen.

This is just a great song with clever lyrics and an extremely catchy beat and hook from Juice WRLD. Em's final verse is absolutely amazing. This album is his best since The Eminem Show, in my opinion.

Don't Stop Now and Break My Heart are great, but this song is just sheer pop magic. Most of Future Nostalgia is, in general. It's the best song on the album along with Hallucinate.

Honestly, it's hard to say what my favorite song from FN was, but about half the album was among my favorite songs of the year. I guess I should have listened to more music from 2020, but I still think that's pretty good.

This might be better than "Don't Start Now," yet it probably won't be half the hit that "Don't Start Now" has been. Looking forward to that album, Dua.

To be really honest, I did not expect this to do as well as it's currently doing, especially among the trap songs that have taken over. Hopefully, it's a sign that we'll see a greater variety of songs playing on the radio and in the charts. Artists like Dua Lipa, The Weeknd, Lady Gaga, and Harry Styles, just to name a few, are all making feel-good pop records.

They have all managed to chart very high on the Billboard charts in the past few months. I have nothing against trap music, but it's about time we have a variety of songs on the charts. Otherwise, things become really boring and repetitive.

Lady Gaga essentially brought out the pop side of Ariana Grande with this song. It works really well, considering they both have completely different tones in their voices. They actually complement each other well. The '90s house-inspired instrumental is a delight to hear. It has a modern feel to it, and the music video is spot-on. I enjoy the whole futuristic atmosphere and the chemistry between them. It's refreshing to hear on the radio lately.

After "New Rules," "Don't Start Now," and now this, I have a feeling we won't be forgetting Dua Lipa's contributions to the modern music scene anytime soon.

I'm not a fan of her music. For some reason, it isn't connecting with me. But this one, I really like - the bass line is amazing.

Dua Lipa interpolates the INXS hit "Need You Tonight" for this sparkly disco-pop song, and it just works so incredibly well.

Now, people don't like Billie Eilish because her songs are depressing, but that's just her style and the way she sings. There is nothing bad about it. This song was really great, especially with that short violin solo. I am not a huge fan of Billie Eilish, but the thing about her is how well she sings and how well she describes her songs.

My Future is great, but this is Billie's best single of the year. Probably her best single in general, alongside Everything I Wanted. Though there's also Bury a Friend and When the Party's Over. It's hard to decide. I'm like a kid in a dark, spider-infested candy store. Billie just keeps giving us quality, and I'm all for it.

At first, I was kind of hesitant when I heard Billie Eilish was doing the newest Bond theme. But after hearing it, I totally get why they chose her. This is the best I've heard her sound in a while, and those Hans Zimmer orchestral bits add to that trademark Finneas production. They give off that signature Bond theme atmosphere.

The Weeknd hired some great producers for "After Hours." Yes, we all know this, but shall I say it again? The production in this song is flat-out amazing, from the instrumentation in the beginning to the gloomy outro. Emphasis on that outro.

I'd also like to mention the lyrical content of this song, where he connects him being high to "losing his faith." Definitely something worth checking out. As of right now, I have no idea if he's going to release this as a single, but it'd be pretty cool if he did. I'm just curious as to how people will respond to the last minute and a half. But anyways, this is one of the best tracks off the album and deserves more attention, in my opinion. 11/10.

Easily the best thing 2020 has to offer. The production is beautiful here, and the outro is easily one of his best. After Hours is easily the best album of the year, and this is my favorite song on it. The way the gloominess emphasizes everything is brilliant, too. 6/5.

EDIT: The best song was going to be Blinding Lights, but it was from 2019. Lol, my bad.

I mean, this guy is a musical legend. He's still going strong and gives it his all. This is someone who respects what they do and loves what they do. We should be calling him a legend because he's had a significant impact on music and has influenced other bands in his time.

We let WAP become a number 1 hit, but this didn't even come close to touching the charts. The lyrics are simple yet introspective and powerful, coming from Ozzy & Elton. With Slash on guitar, Duff McKagan on bass, and Chad Smith on drums, this rock ballad is hard to ignore.

I've already commented on this and I'm not going to talk about why this song isn't first on this list, but this is probably the most honest song Ozzy has ever written. He doesn't want to die an ordinary man. The guitar solo is great as well and is actually played by Slash of Guns N' Roses.

This is definitely my favorite Dua Lipa song. It's also my favorite song on one of my favorite pop albums, that being Future Nostalgia. While this came out in 2019, it is certainly one of my favorite songs of all time.

Her best since "New Rules," this song truly solidifies Dua Lipa's place in the ranks of the best pop singers out there.

I didn't really expect TOP to release a half-pop song, but overall, this works out pretty well in my opinion. The beat is solid throughout, and the bass line is pretty cool. While the lyrics are a bit questionable and generic, they're still good enough for TOP, I guess. This is far from being their best song, but if it becomes a big hit, I'll surely be happy for them. 8/10.

Love this song! It's definitely what we all needed with everything going on. It's even better if you watch the music video with it. 10/10. Hopefully, people won't overplay this on the radio, like most of Twenty One Pilots' other best songs.

I LOVE Twenty One Pilots. This song does not disappoint, and the music video is awesome. It comes on the car radio (pun intended) sometimes, and I sing along with every word. Twenty One Pilots is an awesome band.

This is the only good song that I like. The rest are disasters.

This is the best song on the album, in my opinion.

I can't wait for whatever Joji does this year. This song is great! The guitar solo at the end is just the best.

That guitar riff is one of my favorite moments in 2020's music. Keep it up, Frank, I mean George.

I believed that Sanctuary was George's best until I heard Run. This is definitely his best song to date.

This song and the album it's on are absolutely amazing. Dana Jean Phoenix really outdid herself, and Powernerd is fantastic on here as well. Also, did I inadvertently add the songs from my remix to this list? I've been finding the songs from my remix on here, and I didn't directly add them.

One of the most sad and heartbreaking songs I've ever heard. RIP Mac.

So relatable in 2020, this song paints an interesting portrait of someone whose loneliness has damaged their self-image and created a sorrowful complacency.

This is one of my favorite songs at the moment. During quarantine, I felt lonely because I couldn't hang out with anyone.

I don't often listen to music of this era, but this song is now one of my favorite songs, and that really says something. Every part of it is good, not just the chorus, which speaks for itself. This song is what I think is a perfect combination between the upbeatness of '80s pop and the new sound of this era.

As overplayed as this song seems to be, I still believe it deserves a higher spot on the list. It could start a trend of modern music recapturing that '80s synthwave sound. I'm all in for that, honestly.

This is the only song that I have really liked from this year so far. It sounds so much like an '80s song, and I love it.

Very experimental song. I love how it transitions and the beat kicks in. I'd love to hear this in the club.

This is hauntingly chilling on a creepy level.

THE KING IS BACK!

I love this song so much! It feels like the natural progression of Porter Robinson's music. This is much more personal and real than anything on Worlds, and I'm all for it. I can't wait for Porter's new album!

This song is beautifully gorgeous. I can't wait for Nurture to drop.

It looks like Virtual Self has gone into permanent hibernation.

Definitely brave of Eminem to tackle such a recent tragedy like this, but it is a really good song.

This song is from a three-song EP Blackout. All three are awesome, but this is the best one. It's so awesome.
