Top 10 Best Songs of 2021

Damn, this song is so insanely good! It has great 70s vibes without sounding like a pastiche. Bruno's vocals are excellent, just like Anderson's. Just when I thought Bruno Mars would be declining, he comes back and blows me off the ceiling with a collaboration that turns out to be a match made in heaven. Welcome back, Bruno! I can't wait to see what the Silk Sonic album will be.

I'm not that much into soul, but this song is insanely glossy, lush, and well-crafted. Welcome back, Bruno, 10/10.

Bruno is back! I'm in love with this song. Hope to see more music like this in the new album.

This song is a sparkle like there are very few in music these days. Just when I expected Olivia Rodrigo to release another ballad, she arrives with a pop-punk smash and proves once and for all that she's a pop star in her own right despite still being a teenager. Her success is totally deserved, and this song shows that she's a singer who speaks to her generation.

Olivia Rodrigo surprised me again! She really kills it on this pop-punk song. It brings back 2000s Avril Lavigne and Paramore without imitating them note for note. I am really looking forward to Olivia's debut album. I hope it will be as good as the singles she has released.

The REAL BEST song of the year. Her return after 6 years was an unbelievable feat, and her voice shows us she still endures and has it. It even has a great melody, and we remember it as well. Its atmosphere is classic Adele quality. It even broke Spotify's record for the most streamed song in 24 hours and is #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Take that, Olivia Rodrigo, Justin Bieber, and BTS! Even Drivers License, Stay, and Butter couldn't stand a chance. This is the song of the year. PUT THIS TO #1!

Satisfying return for Adele. Her vocals still sound great. Can't wait to see what she will bring up next.

I don't listen to Lil Nas X at all other than this song, and I love it. I have really enjoyed seeing more LGBTQ people creating art, and even more, seeing it become mainstream. Not to mention, the song goes hard.

This song has grown on me since its release. It's so catchy and lustful, and is a welcome change from trap-pop or drill.

Lil Nas X needs some therapy, but excluding my opinion about him, this is a good song!

I want to hate this song. Really bad. Anything coming out of Justin Bieber is enough to turn me off. But I begrudgingly gave this song a try and I will admit I was pleasantly surprised. It's better than ANYTHING on his latest album.

His vocal performance on this track is amazing, especially at the chorus, despite the production being a little bloated in my opinion. Just when I thought JB was becoming a gimmick, he comes out with this song and proves me wrong. I hope this will be his new direction.

I un-ironically like this. This is genuinely a good song from a once-hated music artist. It's a very good improvement after his less than good 2020 run.

It just came out on January 8th and it outdid every other song in quality and everything else. It's the great song of 2021 and truly the greatest in decades. Better than all the garbage playing and it's among the most heartbreaking songs ever made. This is up to Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton and My Immortal by Evanescence given how sad it really is, and that doesn't do justice for people who cry over sad songs.

Yet, it's upbeat, powerful, inspiring, and emotional all at the same time. It became the first song of 2021 to ever hit number 1 on iTunes and the pop charts as well as anything. Take a hint, guys. This is REAL music and not filled with drugs, sexual content, or racism. A whole lot of effort was put into it and it's like the first time in a decade a new artist released a great and powerful song in the mainstream, though her other and first song was made specifically for Disney Channel.

Still can't believe an actress from a Disney Channel show like Bizzardvark would come up with a song that would take every other artist of today's generation down. Plus, it even debuted at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became the most streamed song worldwide in the first weeks of 2021. It's a true masterpiece that may never be surpassed in 2021 or the rest of the decade. She and her song are the next big things in music today. Song of the decade by the new artist of the decade on the rise.

First thing I thought when I read the title and heard the first chord is that it would be a cover of a Genesis song, but you would be totally wrong to think so because this song SLAPS... HARD! It's great to hear FF again. I hope the album will be just as good, if not better.

Oh thank God, this is so much better than "Shame Shame". This is a return to form for the Foo Fighters.

This is easily the best single they've released so far for their new album.

Another smash by The Weeknd. I really love the synth-disco vibes and his vocals on this one. I'm looking forward to more.

Shocked this isn't higher, considering what a bop it was.

I think it's really good! Blows my mind.

This shows that the Foo Fighters are still capable of making excellent songs. Lovely alternative ballad.

Soulful and tight. Wonderful vocals. This is the best song of 2021 so far, in my opinion.

Great sample and great utilization of the sample. The song itself is great.

Ava Max is SUCH a good artist! Her songs are impossible to hate, and more of her music should be on this list! Every time I Cry is such a good song, and the meaning is amazing. Embrace your bad side, and realize that every time you cry, you get a little bit stronger. I LOVE AVA MAX!

This song is okay but it's not the best song she's made. I feel like Ava Max could quickly become a has-been if she keeps going in that direction.

Pretty funny remake of "Sk8r Boi" by Avril Lavigne. If you like creative sampling or covers, you should give it a listen!
