I avoid modern pop music in general... But I'm sorry, I will always have a soft spot for "Baby one more time" by Britney.

I would add "I want it that way" but let's be real, every dude secretly likes that song.

Pretty much anything by Marina and the Diamonds. Specifically Pimadonna Girl, though.

Pretty Girl Rock by Keri Hilson is a fucking jam

I don't really think of songs as girl songs or boy songs. That being said, I guess La vie en rose by Edith Piaf, I guess? Nothing secret about it, though.

Also, no secret in me liking I want it that way. Never told anyone, but that's because nobody ever asked me.

The Beaches - Blame Brett

Going back a few years I loved 90s Mariah Carey and Jewel. Fiona Apple’s debut album was instrumental in my life. Nowadays, I am not a super fan or anything but I enjoy and have very high opinions of T Swift, Gaga, BeyoncΓ© and many other.

My daughter recently introduced me to Chappell Roan and damn she’s amazing.

As a huge swiftie, there are a lot of songs to pick from.

True by Spandau Ballet

[–] aphlamingphoenix@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Tori Amos's Silent All These Years. That mercurial little piano riff. The painful lyrics. The liberation of the middle eight. It's a perfect song.

Secretly? My Type by Saweetie. Trashiest lyrics you've ever heard but it really helps energize me in the mornings

[–] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

No jokes, if you liked that Britney track, check out "Vivien" by Crosses, and die laughing when you get to the chorus.

As to your question? Brandy and Monica, "The Boy Is Mine". The harp line in the instrumental goes fierce, and both women have heavenly voices. (Always wondered why they didn't just click up and mess up the dude that played 'em both.)

Lots of Britney, Gaga and Gwen Stefani.

However specifically for this question, 7 Ring by Ariana Grande and I have no explanation why.
