Default

#20: Example - Kickstarts

It won Popjustice's £20 Song of the Year prize and whilst it's not exactly a work of art (and Popjustice know about as much about art as a basset hound does) it's indeed an extremely catchy song. Not my favourite of his though, won't beat Watch the Sun Come Up (2009)

#19: Kanye West - All of the Lights

It's 2010's collaboration opus. Rihanna and Eminem? Pants. GaGa and Beyoncé? Grew boring. It's just a brilliant showcase, and various layers of bold goodness.

#18: Christina Aguilera - You Lost Me

So Bionic was pretty terrible. But it did feature glimpses of hope, and this was the brightest - potentially her best vocal performance, certainly her best ballad, to date.

#17: Kings of Leon - Radioactive

It's very self-indulgent, and it's very stadium-rock. As a result they've lost a lot of fans - but mainstream successes such as this are mainstream for a reason - it's distinct, it's pleasing to mine ear.

#16: Arcade Fire - We Used to Wait

It doesn't look, on paper, like it should work. The piano tune would appear irritating but it's actually helpful towards a tense, moody listening experience.

#15: Brandon Flowers - Crossfire

The video is both cute and silly. The album was silly. This song is cute.

#14: The Naked and Famous - Young Blood

YES BEN. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HEARD OF THEM. *throws things*
but yes, this song is rather catchy.

#13: Arcade Fire - Half Light II

The second Half Light I've featured on here (there's two Sprawls as well, but I've only selected one) - the drum rhythm cements its place in this countdown, it's very..."montage"y.

#12: Kelis - Acapella

I never would have predicted a Kelis comeback as brilliant as this. It's thumping, it's unusual, it's hypnotic. ILUVIT.

#11: Adele - Rolling in the Deep

She suffers a slight setback in that this hasn't even been released yet - and therefore I haven't included her other leaked track (Someone Like You). But the video's out, and this song is just everything that's right with music. Her voice is phenomenal, the tune makes you clap and stomp and the lyrics are raw.
