it's up there. not sure if it's my pick but it's a damn good one. huge influence on pop.
I first heard it on the TV show Girls, hooked me straight away - what an awesome song, right up my taste alley.
It's generally under appreciated and unknown for the casual mass audience, but it is very influential in regards to what ended up being the sound of pop music for most of the decade.
Having said that, I don't really like the song much nor the EDM sound of the decade, so... Can't agree with this one.
For me, it probably goes to:
Us old people should remember Robyn from her first go around:
Her newer stuff is better, IMO. Body Talk is such a good album all over, I'm fine with this choice
This article is a good example why Dancing On My Own is such a beloved song.
the writeup makes it sound like it turned into some breakout hit. I dunno, just seemed weird to me. *shrug*
Had no idea this song was from this decade lol. I thought Robyn was some mid 2000s artist who fizzled out
I hear this song a lot on Sirius Chill, had no idea it was by another person originally, lol.
This right here. Dancing On My Own is good but it's so basic, the song that got people into Robyn that didn't really know her before. Call Your Girlfriend is the true album stunner.
Cruise(Remix) is on this list, good grief. To make it worse the next song after that is We Can't Stop, lmao
Kacey Musgraves in the top 10 with Follow Your Arrow is amazing. She really pulled in the gays with that song and became a queer country superstar.
That album basically inspired everything in the pop and electro space for the past decade. Robyn is far from soulless and a class act.

If they had said 100 best pop songs I wouldn't have a problem with that list but looking through the top 20, yikes! Lis Nas X at 12 is all I needed to see to confirm my disgust.
The album is pretty much a blueprint for pop albums that came after it. There must be something of value in it.
I'm surprised Grimes - Oblivion didn't make top 10, for many years it was regarded as the best song of the decade in these lists.
