The song is addictive and will lead you to other great tracks on the album. The American duo are set to tour next year and do all the major summer festivals.





7) Maroon 5 - Girls Like You (Ft Cardi B)

This record went viral in 2018. With a music video featuring key women of the year the track emphasises the importance of women (which we all should be aware of). The track features Cardi B who by all means should have a few of her own pieces on this list (I Like It, Be Careful and so on). The song is a classic and this video of a dad and daughter singing along to it emphasises the brilliance of the track. 





8) Drake - In My Feelings



Drake is an absolute machine in the booth. He consistently makes number 1s including this track. The song explores Drake's past relationships (as per). The song not onky went straight to number 1 but also created a dance phenomenon which involved jumping out of your car (stay safe everbody!).
