Which songs from the last decade (2014-2024) will become classics? - eviltoast

So far I think “Uptown Funk”, “Blinding Lights”, and “Old Town Road”. That doesn’t mean I love those songs. It means I think they answer the question. I know you may love “Irony x3” by Zigbones. But they ain’t it.

Edit: I’m sorry for the poorly worded question. I think it’s autism related, but I don’t see possibilities or alternative understandings easily, and when I wrote “decade” I thought 10 years and that was it.

Of course anyone answering from the perspective of 2010-2020 was making a perfectly reasonable and rational answer and I was very dismissive. I’m really sorry for that.

    Talking about pop:

    • Blinding lights
    • Rolling in the deep
    • Get Lucky
    • Happy

    No need to write the singers, that’s how famous they are.

          I wouldn’t count them out quite yet. Thomas Bangaltar and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo are still producing stuff each on their own. Sometimes they even collaborate on the same project. I don’t think there will be another Daft Punk album or song but I suspect their hands are going to be on a lot of work.

            I think by 30 we’ll have a new Daft Punk album… They’ll both miss the feeling of working creatively on one big project and it will likely be on the same scale as RAM where they use it as an opportunity to collaborate with people in music that they really admire.

          There’s a new Tron movie being worked on. I have no idea who’s doing the music, but the soundtrack for the most recent Tron was such a big reason it had any success. The movie looked cool, but it sounded amazing. The story was bland as hell, which is a shame. That’s one of the few soundtracks for a movie I’ll actually listen to outside of the movie, and I can’t see whatever the new one does being even half as good.

        your wording was a tad ambiguous. it is possible that the above commenter thought you were asking about the last decade, as in the 2010s, rather than the last decade, as in the ten years immediately preceding today (roughly 2014-2024)

      I only know Blinding lights from those. Looks like I’m pretty out of touch with modern music.

        I had to look up Blinding Lights, and I don’t recognize it. I know the others from that list (whether they fit the criteria or not).
