In 2025, I listened to even less new music than ever as I retreated to the 90s favorites. But there were still quite a few highlights for me, which I’ll write about more when I write about my favorite things of 2025. Also, you may notice there is a bit of overlap from the favorite songs by Japanese artists list, the songs are just that good. So, here they are, my favorite songs of 2025 in alphabetical order.
