50. Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe (2024)

Of course it is. There's nothing really I can add to the words of others who are far more eloquent than me. It might even now be my favourite ever song. Perfection. Thanks as always Arron.

48. Charli xcx - Sympathy is a knife (2024)

I'm a Taylor Swift fan but she went down massively in my estimation with her mean-spirited response to this on TLoaS.

46. CMAT - The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station (2025)

I'm definitely here for more songs about pop stars' slightly baseless antipathy towards other famous people. We all have one don't we? Mine would be about Vernon Kay.

37. Taylor Swift - So Long, London (2024)

The Tortured Poet's Department is my favourite post-Folklore album. Unhappiness suits her very well, especially on this aching post-mortem of the end of her relationship with Joe Alwyn.

The original is great in its own right but the addition of Ari takes it to another level.

I could tactically vote for What Was That as it seems to be the one picking up votes but this is my favourite track from the excellent Virgin.

Three years to the day our then 16 year old son was rushed into intensive care with meningitis. He luckily made a full recovery but Autofiction soundtracked weeks of trips back and forth from the hospital.
