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.
Lovefool by The Cardigans
This may not exactly answer your question, but I saw a question the other day on another platform “Men, what song that is sung by a female vocalist do you sing with all your heart?” Below was my answer to that question.
Love Story - Tayler Swift
Fast Car - Tracy Chapman
Ashes - Celine Dion
Waterfalls - TLC
Jolene - Dolly Parton
Fucking Perfect - Pink!
Hello - Adele
Higher Love - Whitney Houston
Beyond The Burning Skies - Battle Beast
I Get Off - Lizzy Hale
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.
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.
I’m a Barbie Girl.
Wrong Impression - Natalie Imbruglia
Two Become One - Spice Girls
C’est La Vie - B*Witched
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough - Diana Ross
senorita. I can feel the lyrics even it’s sung by a female. “I love it when you call me senorita, every touch is oh-lala”
Take me Home by Jess Glynn
Max Martin is the genius working behind most of the artists mentioned in this thread. The dude is a total hit parade machine and the fact that no one said his name tells me a lot about how music is perceived in the mainstream.
Yeah I saw that YouTube short too dude. But nobody cares about writers
What short?
Possibly because this thread is about the songs, not the producers, but please I would absolutely love for you to expand on what it tells you about how music is perceived in the mainstream, should my eyes ever stop spinning like a one armed bandit.
No need to be sarcastic, I’m not attacking anyone on a personal level.
I know this thread is about songs, in fact I wanted to give credit to the people who actually had an active part in writing these songs (not just producing).
I know people cannot always credit every member working behind a piece of music, like it’s a scientific paper, but if you’re a lover of this art sometimes is nice to stop and be curious about who these people are and how they work. If you don’t you’re just a consumer, which is fine but you’re missing a big part of the process.
A few Lana Del Rey songs but I can’t listen to her anymore because she supports Israel.
Of course Elizabeth Grant would be a fckin Zionist 🙄
True by Spandau Ballet
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I don’t know what qualifies as “girl” music.
I’ve never checked a songs genitalia myself.

Yael Naim - New Soul
How has nobody mentioned Girls Just Wanna Have Fun yet? That bubbly energy is a great pick-me-up whenever you need it most.
I love the STRFKR cover. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCG1fWfp4mI
