3. Pac-Man - Gorillaz

This has all the elements of a classic Gorillaz song: Dusty vocals from Damon Albarn, and a rap feature that’ll make your jaw drop. In this case, ScHoolboy Q delivered the best verse of the year over a bouncy, dark instrumental typical of Gorillaz style.
2. Godspeed - James Blake

You thought it couldn’t get any better than Frank huh? Wrong. James Blake flipped this iconic song into an even more beautiful and solemn track then I could’ve ever imagined. It’s emotional yet simple and I love it for that.
1. Bittersweet - Lianne La Havas

This is that song I hear every year that makes my jaw drop to the floor. Lianne is absolutely stunning with a vocal performance up there with the best. This song is a true representation of her talent and I could talk about this for hours...
