The 90's question gets tricky because there are those aforementioned hits from 1989 that I'm shocked aren't from the 90's And |

Hey, what if we reverse the question and ask what the last hits of each era that lingered into the next decade are? I have a few ideas.
70s: Lipps Inc. “Funky Town.” I still can’t believe this is from 1980. I would have guessed 1975!
80s: Either “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough” or “No Mistakes” by Patty Smyth featuring Don Henley. Or “Faithful” by Go West. It’s a tie because all 3 of these songs sound very 80s, but they came out in the same time frame in 1992 / 1993.
90s: A tie between “Hands Clean” by Alanis Morisette and “Here is Gone” by the Goo Goo Dolls. Both 90s sounding songs charted at the same time in Spring to Summer of 2002.
00s: I’m not too sure on this, but it could be either “According to You” by Orianthi or “If You Only Knew” from Shinedown. Or even “Hey Soul Sister” by Train. All are from 2010, but not much 00s sound after that.

20's: Stay (Kid Laroi & JB), this song is borderline hyperpop which to me shows that hyperpop is on the verge of taking off. If so, this song will probably be seen as the predecessor Yes, I googled it, but just curious how would you define Hyperpop? |

Very fast paced, new melodies are introduced very quickly one after the other, very electronic. Kinda like the electropop of the early 2010's but more rhythmic like trap music and faster paced. |

Under that description, sounds like a fusion of two dominant 2010s styles, each of which was everywhere for a few years but eventually wore thin after too many similar sounding hits. As said, more rhythmic and faster than electropop but also more melodic and varied than trap. |

I just hope it's some form of a return to true pop music because we've been deprived of that for almost a decade now. And this 'Bedroom pop' shite is one of the worst things that's ever gone near my ears |

I can’t believe I forgot about this one: “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman. That sounds very 90s and hard to believe it came out in the 80s.
