#33 Robyn - Dancing On My Own (2010) (SWE)

I don't think I've ever danced to this, which seems very wrong (not even an impromptu home disco like Hannah and Marnie).

all of those are great - I also like that she's 'pretty sure' she would have told him to stop, so there's a chance she'd have told him to go anyway

#34 The Weeknd (2/2) - Can't Feel My Face (2015) (CAN)

The Weeknd's retro, shiny, sleezy, electropop always sounds quintessentially 2010s.

A small brown horse wearing a waterproof green blanket with green pattern and pink fastenings and edging.

Went for a walk, saw a small horse (love its horse jacket)

ah yes, this is fab!

#THETENX5 Day 16

#35 Wolf Alice - Don't Delete The Kisses (2017) (UK)

I really like the uncertainty and hesitation building into beautiful and shimmery choruses. (The first of my picks I saw live in the 2010s: a big Christmas finale to their 2018 Brixton gig.)

I always think it's the hook I like more, and then the saxophone comes in at the end ... (both phenomenal)

#THETENX5 Day 15

#36 Childish Gambino - Redbone (2016) (USA)

Another slow-jam, there's something pleasingly chunky and tactile about this song.

#THETENX5 Day 14

#37 Dave ft. Burna Boy - Location (2019) (UK/ NGA)

I love a chilled Dave-bop, and the laid back Bruce Hornsby vibes here.

Props to the lady dressed as the 😍 emoji at the leisure centre (and before 9am too)

I hope so🤞

(and Blågårdsgade)

I haven't been for a while - but if you're hunkering down in cafes/ shops/ not ridiculously expensive eateries we enjoyed hanging out in the Nørrebro district (particularly Jægersborggade)

Mitski day snap! (so many tracks to choose from ...)

#THETENX5 Day 13

#38 Mitski - Nobody (2018) (USA)

Top tier disconcerting sad banger, and excellent use of hand claps.

ooh yes, lots of Elefant bands to check out

This was a near-miss for me (goes on the ever growing HM pile), I also have a soft spot for Nothin' on You.

Fabulous! - and yes, I think I should have ignored Discogs on this single-status.

#THETENX5 Day 12

#39 La Casa Azul - Podría Ser Peor (2016) (ESP) (NKC❌, Single⁉️*)

It's nearly the weekend, so let's enjoy every disco trick and trope in this most shimmery tune.

[*Discogs says no, but everyone else says yes 🙃]

#THETENX5 Day 11

#40 SZA - Drew Barrymore (2017) (USA)

Such a gloriously beautiful and comforting song - a star of my 2017 commuting playlist and the sweet spot of many an early morning train journey.

An excellent choice :) (would love more Adele-bop)

#THETENX5 Day 10

#41 HAIM - If I Could Change Your Mind (2014) (USA)

Another very shiny song - the clapology and fun backing vocals (especially at the end) tipped me toward this HAIM.

it is a pretty ominpresent party song :) I don't know 'king of kings' - will check it out before the 2000s challenge...

Danza Kuduro was a late cut from my list ... (so very much looking at it for an HM)

First commute of the year with the sun up ...

#THETENX5 Day 9

#42 Adele - Rolling in the Deep (2010) (UK)

Adele is best when she's in bop mode.

:) i thought there was a Starbucks reference in there too (i have massively mis-heard this song!)

Always :)

#THETENX5 Day 8

#43 A Tribe Called Quest - We The People.... (2016) (USA) (Poppy❌)

I'd always want ATCQ on my side.
