If you read my previous post about my favorite albums of 2018 so far, you’d know that I feel extremely positive on the state of music overall. Plenty of super solid albums that I’ve found myself listening to over and over. The same goes for 2018’s songs! The top ten tracks I’ve listed here have already racked up at least 20-30 plays each in my own personal library. They’re ranked, but don’t add too much weight. This is purely a snapshot of what’s happening in my brain now.

Don’t count out the other 40 I’ve listed here either – they’re all linked for your convenience! And don’t forget to listen to all of these songs and more on my Spotify playlist!
