I was in a Catholic high school in the early 2010's and I have a distinct memory of our chorus teacher getting fed up because all the kids were bitching about how we always had to sing boring religious music during practice and during school concerts. So to make up for it, one day she printed out the sheet music to Dynamite by Taio Cruz and said "Okay class, since you guys wanted to sing something different, we'll sing this." It was so embarrassing and we never complained again

One of our coworkers had a radio he would play in the kitchen and I would be forced to listen to every single one of these songs at least once every shift. It was a stressful gig, my hands always smelled like onions and pineapple and I would walk out with a film of grease on my face. But we ate for free and were able to take food to our local gaming cafe and trade stuffed crust pizzas for free time on the computers to play Left4Dead2 until 2 in the morning.

Mainstream country's decline goes back almost a decade prior. The year "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" came out was the same year they canceled the [Dixie] Chicks, and it pretty much guaranteed that if women in country music wanted to make it, they needed to shut their mouths on anything besides music. Country music became a dick-measuring contest, and they essentially forced Taylor Swift out of country music. Not that Swift is some godsend artist, but she was leagues better than her contemporaries.

Ever since I heard “The Monster,” I’ve thought a lot less of “Love The Way You Lie” than I did when it came out.

I don't remember Anthony being that pissed about a song like he is here with OMG.

This was the era when I was most closely paying attention to what's on the charts/popular, and I couldn't for the life of me hum the melody of either of those two Taio Cruz songs from memory, though I remember his music being so ubiquitous and earworm-y...looking back at the 2010s chart toppers, it's so clear that - more than in any previous decade - so many of these songs won't stand the test of time. They were designed to be disposable. I _wish_ I could forget Hey Soul Sister.

As somebody who was growing up in the early 2010s and heard a ton of pop music back then, I had absolutely no memory of Usher's OMG. I knew every other song on this, but I had no recollection at all of OMG.

h&m is weird, but I get it in clubs

That pop-rap-dance fusion era was genuinely disgusting. David Guetta, LMFAO, Flo-Rida, Pitbull, Taio Cruz and the shit that Black Eyed Peas brought out in those years. Katy Perry’s and Lady Gaga’s songs have aged infinitely better because it doesn’t try to be every fucking genre. There’s a reason why every positive comment on this video boils down to: this was the soundtrack of my middle school days, nostalgi is the only way you can still like it. It literally only appealed to middle school ages and people who like soulless, formulaic genre crossovers.

Listening back to these tunes really puts into perspective why analog synths had a revival after this too. Like, even the best stuff, like the synths in Gaga’s music from the early 2010s, sounds so horrendous in comparison to what musicians like Prince were doing with synths in pop music 30 years earlier.

Or pop music just had no idea how to use them. A lot of dance music and things like grime that used software synths around this time and earlier still sound great. Maybe it was ringtone rap and crunk influence? I don't know myself what happened

My mom is maybe the biggest Train fan I've ever met. I've listened to more Train than maybe I would care to have or at least care to admit. The reason that my mom resonates with Train so much is because the lyrics are so non-sensical that since english isn't her first language she can just kind of turn her brain off. I mean, I used to think that AJR was relatively inoffensive as a band, and then there hit a point where the lyrics hit my brain, and I was like, shit, "I've got quinoa in my fridge, but I'm not feeling raw" is trash. I'm kind of terified of meeting the millenial stereotype that this was written for. Like I get that they have to exist, but I refuse to acknowledge their existence.

You are valid for worrying, they’re all Karens now 😆

Bad Romance is one of my favorite songs of all time honestly. It's just wall to wall sound, and Gaga's vocals are amazing.

I was living for the tongue lashings of Usher and Train. I enjoyed how the distance of time allowed you go at it with both barrels.

Your thoughts on Kesha are pretty spot on for me as well. I think something can be dated in an almost charming way, and I think Tik Tok fits that to a tee.

It’s insane to consider the tolerance level I had for obnoxious music as a kid, when I was in middle school everyone and their mother was jamming out to OMG on the dance floor, now it makes me want to physically throw up.

The fact that Primadonna Girl isn't anywhere on Billboard's 2012 list is criminal.

If you were a latin american kid, hell not even a kid a fucking person in latin america, during the early leg of the decade you’d heard that in commercials on the tv, radio and even while making a call. Sometimes you’d get a call and only hear the fucking song. I never, ever wanna hear that song for the rest of my life lmao.

As a total metal elitist gatekeeper at the time… when Bad Romance came out I loved it and didn’t even try to hide it from my friends lol

great format. now do the other 70 years of modern music.

wake up in the morning feeling like p diddy

Please continue to make more videos like this where you talk about older music! They've been great so far.

Just DJ’ed a wedding for a couple who wanted all of these 2010’s songs for their reception. Got kinda nostalgic and felt like I was back at my middle school dances (my dad was djing those, so it’s extra nostalgic!)

Yoooo I don't even need to watch this video before I answer the question. YES plz do more of these types of videos. So glad you started off with one of my most favorite years of music and one that has forever shaped my taste of what I listen to. When I saw the title in my inbox, I was HYPED

2010 was not a bad year, 2010 was finding it's placement or footing heading into this new decade coming out of the 2000s. 2010 we got a mini Eminem comeback, B.O.B. had two no. 1 hits, I still love Nothin On You & Airplanes. Personally Nothin on You I like better than Airplanes. Usher OMG Idk I like it, I remember seeing the music video on like a VH1 top 20 video countdown when it was new. So maybe it's just me. Katy Perry Teenage Dream Era is my favorite Era of Katy Perry. She was really dominating the charts at this time. I believe this album became the second album after MJ's Bad to have like 5 hit songs on one album something like that but I could be wrong. Lastly Kesha's Tik-Tok I did like as a wee lad, but now because of the Tik-Tok app I can live without this song. Kesha does have great songs. So I'm not gonna say she is trash.

okay this video was lit was so much fun to go along with you predicting the rankings. please make more of these!

"We Found Love" is the best 2010s dance pop song. It belongs on the list.

Todd and Anthony have such different tastes, I’d love to see them discuss their opinions some day.

Really surprised Fantano finally gave his score for Save Me, San Francisco by Train. So happy he gave it a 10. Loved when he said, “Death Grips makes silly music, Train fucks very hard.”

oh my gosh all of these instantly played back in my head. i must've heard these collectively hundreds of times

This is an amazing video idea! Need one for all the rest of the awkward 2009-2015 years please

Yes Anthony, I drove around in truck delivering auto parts parts for all of 2010 so I know all these songs extremely well and that Usher song has always been suuuuch garbage. Thank you for acknowledging my past trauma

Would love to watch every year, I really like these tier lists made by you, ^^

I love tik tok. I think the production is actually fantastic in terms of mixing, in terms of the dated sounds I think that’s the point. It was pulling from dance mhsic but like you said in a more punky alternative dance scene (maybe even crunkcore and bit music inspired). I think there’s absolutely a certain irony going into the making of it, similar to what the hyperpop scene has done now just intesnfied which is something Kesha even said herself, that she purposefully was silly and “dumbed herself down”. I think it’s nostalgic, great baseline, cool vocal production in a late 2000s/2010 way and really fun!!! My favorite on the list other than bad romance for sure

Hey Soul Sister is the only song from this list that I still hear every now and then through malls and clothing stores
