Top 50 Singles of 2009: 5-1
5. Dyno - Don’t Speak Love
My favorite new indie group of the year, this song was seemingly written using a template of everything that I love. A stunning example of why Swedish pop is so unbeatable.
4. Lady Gaga - Poker Face
Her official, world-conquering arrival. For that alone, it’s worth noting. But that’s forgetting the sheer brilliance of the song.
3. The Galvatrons - Cassandra
The track where I can safely use the “synths from Van Halen’s Jump” comparison. That, by the way, is pretty much the highest praise in the world.
2. Alcazar - Stay The Night
Never liked them too much before, but this song single-handedly changed that. This will sound as fresh and joyous twenty years from now as it does today.
1. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
Her gutsiest single to date, and the release that marked her speedy evolution into a proper pop artist. This is so far ahead of anything else on this list, it’s ridiculous.
