Top 200 Songs of the Decade Tournament: Round 1, Part 6

Post by Holden »

Hello! As I'm sure many of you know, recently, the top 200 songs of the Decade based on Critics' List have been shown over in the respective thread, so I thought it would be fun to make a game out of it! So here it is:
Every week, I'll post a new poll with twenty songs, randomly selected from the list of 200. You can pick up to your ten FAVORITE of these songs. Once all 200 songs have been used, then round two begins, with only the top 100 songs remaining. However, I won't simply be using the ten highest songs in each round, instead I will be basing it on the percentage of votes that they carry in the round, and ranking those. I hope this makes sense, and if you'd like me to explain I can, but all you have to do is pick your ten favorite of the twenty songs!
Here are this week's songs! Some pretty great ones this week!

56 | Childish Gambino | Redbone (2016)
67 | Ariana Grande | no tears left to cry (2018)
72 | Father John Misty | Pure Comedy (2017)
73 | Kanye West | Ultralight Beam (2016)
86 | Grimes | Genesis (2012)
97 | Robyn | Call Your Girlfriend (2010)
107 | Cardi B feat. Bad Bunny and J Balvin | I Like It (2018)

I’m sad Round and Round isn’t doing better. I know Ariel Pink sucks as a person but the song is pretty amazing.

I thought Redbone would get a lot more love.
