In spite of all the terrible things that happened, 2017 was filled with some pretty solid music. From the waterfall of Summer jams [1] to all those sexy songs [2] that had your hips moving, it seems the plenitude of bops was actually one of the bright spots of the last 12 months. And what better way to bid farewell to this garbage year than to remember some of the best pop songs it had to offer? This New Year's Eve, turn the volume all the way up, put your worries to bed, and dance. We even made a Spotify playlist for you. (You're welcome.)
