The Top 10 Songs of 2018

The Top 10 songs of 2018!!
2018 has been a great year for fun pop songs getting into the upper portion of the Billboard HOT 100 Singles chart. Here's my Top 10 favorite songs of the year:

No Tears Left To Cry - Ariana Grande

She has the best vocal range of anyone on the charts now. She is getting the best, catchiest songs and working with the best producers. When this song came out it was the clear front runner for song of the year and it simply had no competition.   

Meant To Be - Florida Georgia Line with Bebe Rexha

The inescapable multi-format cross over smash hit of the year

The Middle - Maren Morris with Zedd

Bring a fresh young country artist to do vocals on a dance pop song and you've got yourself a huge hit!    

Finesse - Bruno Mars

He started out 2018 by winning all of the major awards at the Recording Academy / GRAMMYs and then he had another huge hit on his hands.      

Girls Like You - Maroon 5

Another example of the Recording Academy / GRAMMYs getting it right when they gave them the Best New Artist award in 2004. Here they are still cranking out the hits!     

God Is A Woman - Ariana Grande

She was by far the biggest star of the year delivering the catchiest songs with the best vocals. Every song she released was a contender for the best and biggest hits of the year, but I decided to be fair and allow for some other acts to get in.      

New Rules - Dua Lipa

It was already a big hit in 2017, but it kept getting bigger and reached it's peak in 2018.    

Happier - marshmello and Bastille

All of the music on the radio sounded exactly the same in 2018, and this is one of the good ones.

Shallow - Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper 

A Star is Born and a career is rejuvenated and reinvented to a new level and into a phase.    

Say Something - Justin Timberlake and Chris Stapleton

A wonderful fusion of Country and Pop that's both great to dance to as well as sing along with.
