Best songs of 2026
The current year, so this is a scoreboard rather than a verdict. These records are still collecting their first ratings and the order changes weekly. Half of what will end up mattering about this year has not been released yet, which is worth remembering before arguing with the top of it.
Songs from the albums of 2026, ordered by their own ratings rather than the record's.

One great song, one bad album
Tracks carry their own ratings here, so a record you would never play front to back can still have a song worth defending.
