This list will start presenting with the first few songs today. There are so many songs I could've had on this list but I've narrowed it down to 40 songs. The reveals will go in chronological order rather than a countdown. Also if I'm being honest, I probably will have different opinions on my favorite 2010s songs in a few years from now. This is what it looks like now. Unfortunately due to my own age and the fact that I started following charts in 2016 and also the fact that I just preferred 2014-2015 music, there is an imbalance in years (so when there should really be 8 songs from 2010-2011, there are only 2 on this list). But I'll make it work. Here is the year breakdown: 2010 x1 2011 x1 2012 x4 2013 x4 2014 x9 2015 x5 2016 x2 2017 x5 2018 x5 2019 x4 And if anyone else wants to be tagged, let me know. BB🌕 |

Not really a good choice to start out the list, but here it is anyway.
[insert drunk lyrics]
2010
"Like a G6"
Far East Movement f/ The Cataracs & DEV
Hot 100 Peak: 1
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 4
I've never made a decision on my favorite song of 2010 until recently, but I feel bad that this one is it. It's a big guilty pleasure of mine. The best part of the song is everything in the chorus. |

And for the second song on the list, we have none other than... DEV again.
Late at night I pretend we are
Dance dance da-dance dancing in the dark
2011
"In the Dark"
DEV
Hot 100 Peak: 11
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 8
In recent months this has quickly become a top 5 of the decade, although the verses are definitely questionable. The best parts are the chorus and the iconic saxophone drop, and the drop in the bridge, which was well done. It's a jam. |

I get a good feeling, yeah
2012
"Good Feeling"
Flo Rida
Hot 100 Peak: 3
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 1
A jam. |

What you gon' do when I appear?
W-w-when I premiere?
2012
"212"
Azealia Banks f/ Lazy Jay
Hot 100 Peak: N/A
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: N/A
A very interesting song. Only making this discovery earlier this (or, last) year, it has been a song I've found myself listening to a lot in 2019, despite how vulgar it gets and her attitude outside music. I love how explosive the song gets right after the bridge. It's also, somehow, one of the most critically acclaimed songs of the decade. |

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
2012
"Lights"
Ellie Goulding
Hot 100 Peak: 2
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 1
An excellent start to her career. A beautiful song, different, and a jam. |

I said earlier "Like a G6" was a guilty pleasure. And then there's this.
I'm the cat with the bass and drum, going around like bom bom bom
What's grooving, I'm movin', I like your style of wompin'
2012
"Bom Bom"
Sam and the Womp
Hot 100 Peak: N/A
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: N/A
(#1 in the UK)
I'm not from the UK, but this song slaps. It's very fun and catchy and in-your-face and has a lot of trumpet. But it is the type of song that many would find annoying. |

And it's not enough to tell me that you care
When we both know the words are empty air
You give me nothing
Nothing
2013
"Sweet Nothing"
Calvin Harris f/ Florence Welch
Hot 100 Peak: 10
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 5
A really good song in which both artists did a great job. |

We are the ones
The ones you left behind
Don't tell us how
Tell us how to live our lives
2013
"Thank You"
MKTO
Hot 100 Peak: 120
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 38
Underrated song from a one-hit-wonder group. Very catchy. |

Bounce, make it bounce
Shake it, break it, make it bounce

Now you're talking crazy, saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through though, watch me hit it solo
I’mma do it acapella, yeah
2013
"Acapella"
Karmin
Hot 100 Peak: 72
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 34
The bridge is awful, but the rest of the song is so good. The production and melody are great in this one. |

It's goin' down, I'm yellin' timber

I'll be the one you won't forget

First things first, I'm the realest
Drop this and let the whole world feel it
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
I can hold you down, like I'm giving lessons in physics
2014
"Fancy"
Iggy Azalea f/ Charli XCX
Hot 100 Peak: 1
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 1

It's late in the evening / glass on the side
I've been sat with you / for most of the night
Ignorin' everybody here / we wish they would disappear
So maybe we could get down now
2014
"Sing"
Ed Sheeran
Hot 100 Peak: 13
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 6
Sad that people will remember this a lot less than his other songs, this is my favorite song of his. |

If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark, but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
2014
"Rather Be"
Clean Bandit f/ Jess Glynne
Hot 100 Peak: 10
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 6
This song is beautiful and so well-made. Glad it was a hit in the US. |

You're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming
You're just another day that keeps me breathing
2014
"Hideaway"
Kiesza
Hot 100 Peak: 51
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 17
The production really shines in this song, and Kiesza goes along with it well. Jealous of the UK right now as I learn it went #1 there. |

Said it ain't what you do, it's what you do tonight
And there ain't no shortcut to doing something right
2014
"She Came to Give It to You"
Usher f/ Nicki Minaj
Hot 100 Peak: 89
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: N/A (but did go top 50)
The first time I heard this was in a Honey Nut Cheerios commercial from 2014, and I didn't think much of it. Fast-forward 3 years and it was a jam on first listen. The beat is great. Nicki killed her verse. |

It's like I got this music in my mind, sayin' it's gonna be alright
2014
"Shake It Off"
Taylor Swift
Hot 100 Peak: 1
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: 1
Nostalgia and really catchy song. |

Boys and girls across the world
Putting on our dancing shoes
2014
"Break the Rules"
Charli XCX
Hot 100 Peak: 91

The highest highs, the lowest lows
You lift me up, then let me go
I've had enough, I'm gonna jump
Before you push me
2014
"Parachute"
Olivia Somerlyn (LIVVIA)
Hot 100 Peak: N/A
Mainstream Top 40 Peak: N/A
One of the most obscure songs and artists on the list, but I was obsessed with it in late 2014, and it was one of the few songs I bought on iTunes before I got Spotify. I really just love everything about it, and it's a fun and beautiful song. |
