Top 10 Best Songs of 2025

 

Hey guys! With my top 10 worst list of 2025 complete, it's time to take a look at my top 10 best songs of 2025. There's not really much to go over, so let's get right into it!

10: Selena Gomez/benny blanco - Bluest Flame

It's funny, Selena Gomez appears in both my worst and best list of 2025. Bluest Flame is a million times better then Scared Of Loving You. This was actually written by Charli XCX, which you can tell when you listen to this song. The hyper-pop dance production is really fun, and Selena sounds great despite having weird vocal effects on her voice.

9: Charlie Puth - Changes

This is one of Charlie Puth's best songs in a long time. The production is amazing, it sounds straight out of an 80s sitcom. And Charlie Puth's voice is amazing as always.

8: 3OH!3 - SLUSHIE

3OH!3 is a name I haven't heard since 2010. I didn't know they were even still making music until I went on their Spotify page. The glitchcore production here is super cool. It reminds me a lot of their earlier music like DONTTRUSTME and STARSTRUKK. I wish this could have become a hit, but I understand since this isn't very radio friendly.

7: Lorde - What Was That

Lorde's big comeback song in 4 years did not disappoint. The song starts off a bit slow, but towards the middle it starts to get interesting with all the synthpop production. And Lorde's voice is incredible as always. It's a shame this song flopped as hard as it did.

6: AJR - Betty

AJR's first song after not making any music for 2 years did not disappoint. The bedroom pop production is super fun and reminds me a lot of their earlier music. And singer Jack Met sounds amazing as always. It's a shame this song flopped so hard.

5: Doechii - DENIAL IS A RIVER

This song was just so hilarious. It sounds straight out of a 90s sitcom. The lyrics are hilarious, especially the breathing exercise at the end of the song. It's a shame this flopped so hard in favor of Anxiety. This deserved way more success than Anxiety. 

4: Jonas Brothers - Love Me To Heaven

This was the Jonas Brothers' best song in a long time. The production is insanely fun and the brothers sound great as always. This song deserved much more success.

3: Reneé Rapp - Leave Me Alone

It's a shame this song never became a hit. This is easily her best song. The alt production is super cool and really catchy and her voice surprisingly works well for this type of music. I was very sad when this dropped out of hitbound.

2: Laufey - Lover Girl

I will admit, I wasn't a huge fan of Laufey when I first heard her. In fact, I thought Tough Luck was terrible when I first heard it on hitbound. Then one day, Tough Luck randomly grew on me a ton. Then I heard this song, and I finally understood all the hype about Laufey. The production is really strange, but it somehow works really well. It's like a cross between jazz, samba, and bossa nova, which in theory sounds like a terrible combination. But it actually sounds really cool and interesting. And Laufey's voice is heavenly. Hopefully this song doesn't end up flopping on the countdown.

And my #1 favorite song of 2025 is...

1: JENNIE/Dominic Fike - Love Hangover

This seems like an unexpected song to put as my favorite song of 2025. But the more I relistened to it, I realized how great this song was. The production is really interesting. It has an alt Kpop style, which is super catchy and unique. I'm not normally a huge fan of Dominic Fike, his song Mama's Boy ended up on my worst list of 2023, but his verse is actually really good. And JENNIE sounds great here also. It's a shame this dropped out of hitbound and never became a hit.

Well that does it for now. See you guys next time!
