Couple things: 1) I made a Spotify list of about 200 songs that encompass the 2010s for me. Remember that I am exceedingly basic, and that music is where I go to not be very smart, but maybe you'll like? https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1GMbIMN4zuf0mJbZrOQ0sz?si=pHEDLDtGQPWvcDQo7mxLug
2) I ranked my 25 fave songs of the decade. Mute as needed, but here we go!
25. "Juice," Lizzo
Yes, yes, Lizzo Twitter is often a very lot, but I'd have to be made of stone not to love this song.

24. "Try," Pink
Lotta competish for The Pink Slot on this list. I love "Raise a Glass" even in its corniest moments, and "Just Give Me a Reason" could have doubled as the fun. slot. "Try" is some A+ emo Pink, though, and the music video is me-bait.

23. "Slip Away," Perfume Genius
Probably as self-consciously "cool" as this list is going to get, though let the fact that I only discovered this song via "Booksmart" temper that cred some.

22. "Diamonds," Rihanna
More often than not, 2010s Rihanna sounded like she was always about two seconds away from slicing all my skin off for fun. But "Diamonds" sounds lush as hell, and I love that for her.

21. "Rumor Has It/Someone Like You," Cast of GLEE
The fun secret of "Glee" was that even when it got well past the point of no return as a TV show, it could still produce some great musical moments. This is the best one.

20. "Closer," Tegan and Sara
Shout out to @DarrenStein for nailing down this song for his movie "G.B.F." and forever making me think of beautiful queers dancing to this song.
