01 Nik Kershaw - The Riddle (favourite) (few people have a better handle on a great pop melody than Nik Kershaw - this is, and always will be, an amazing track)

02 Conan Gray - Actor (great discovery, every Conan song I hear I think 'this is better than I expected' so I should probably check more of his stuff out, and judging by the strength of this then I will be because he'll be sticking around!)

03 The Weeknd - Blinding Lights

04 David Bowie - Life on Mars?

05 George Michael - Faith

06 Eric Saade - Made of Pop (haven't thought of this song since 2010, but it's nice to hear it again)

Dandy really said f*** all y'all twinks

Yep! Sorry!! 😂 I tried to give them all a fair shot but I just really struggle to take to them... although I definitely do like some Troye songs so there's a reasonable chance he'll feature highly in later rounds.

It’s nice to seee numerous ppl comment on how great a discovery Conan Gray’s song is! This era was soooo underrated . That was like maybe the 5th best song from the era and it was still 2nd in my votes.

This was actually fairly easy for me to rank, I don't listen to a lot of male pop so I'm welcoming the switch up 😂

I'm not big on male pop, so these may need an extra listen or two.

His 'Found Heaven' album is a particular favourite of mine which I think would be very much up your street - quite different to 'Actor' and very 80s inspired.
