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.

I guess a good bit of Emilie Autumn could fall into that class if I where to put tags on it.

Ashes - Celine Dion

Waterfalls - TLC

Jolene - Dolly Parton

Fucking Perfect - Pink!

Hello - Adele

Higher Love - Whitney Houston

Beyond The Burning Skies - Battle Beast

Oh man, I literally can't answer this. I mainline EDM, I would end up laundry listing a hundred or so vocalists.

I'll just say that JES is legendary and I have a playlist that's like 15 hours of electronica with her vocals and it rules.

My go to is Adele.

[–] aphlamingphoenix@lemm.ee 2 points 5 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.

[–] Laggindragon@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

True by Spandau Ballet

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.

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.

I recently came across Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter and it sounds like the old pop that I like.

[–] arthur@lemmy.zip 1 points 5 months ago

"Best Thing I Never Had" by Beyonce. Does it qualify?

[–] copymyjalopy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

Pretty much anything by Birthday Massacre.

Take me Home by Jess Glynn

[–] scumm_boy@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Countdown by Beyonce... It's super catchy and puts a big smile on my face!

[–] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Rich by Maren Morris

I've had Girls Aloud in my rotation recently. Their songs are just fun and really catchy. Also have The Veronicas, Brittany Spears, Taylor Swift etc...

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Someone already posted my first thought, No Doubt- Just a Girl, so I'll add some modern songs.

Doechii- Black Girl Memoir

Megan Thee Stallion - Anxiety
