It wasn’t just new acts that dominated the charts this year, established artists like Dua Lipa, Charli XCX, Billie Eilish and Post Malone made their presence felt within the music world.

It goes without saying, 2019 belonged to Lil Nas X and his groundbreaking Old Town Road. It was the most popular track of 2019 and it stayed at No 1 for 19 weeks across the pond in the US. The song itself began life on TikTok and went viral! As the summer progressed, there were numerous remixes of the song! This only gives the song new life – no one could keep up!
We also loved Billy Eilishs’ Bad Guy in 2019. It truly was a monster from which there was no escape! This menacing track haunted the charts in 2019 and we loved it. The song is a mix of pop, ballad and a hint of rap thrown in for good measure. As you listen, the song is able to create an atmosphere where you’d be forgiven for thinking that Eilish may jump out at you at any minute!
Lizzo’s ultra-popular dance anthem is wall to wall funk and soul! Designed to make sure that everyone has a good time. This is mainly down to Lizzo’s ability to write fun-filled lyrics and beats that are certain to drag everyone to a dance floor! The song harks to the ’70s/80’s disco that is partial the big appeal of this funk as hell track!
Unless you had been living in a cave somewhere, you could not move without hearing Charli XCX – Gone (Feat Christine and the Queens) in 2019. This track is charged with bouncing electric beat and darkly conceived lyrics that are reinforced by both singers’ wonderful vocals. Pop music doesn’t get much darker than this gem of a track
Since 2017, Dua Lipa has been going from strength to strength. And it looks like 2019 was no different for her! She produced one of the years biggest tracks with Don’t Start Now. This high octane disco-inspired track is carried by Lipa’s silky vocals and a driving beat. So, this is purely a track for heading going out a Saturday night!
