Which songs from the last decade (2014-2024) will become classics? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So far I think "Uptown Funk", "Blinding Lights", and "Old Town Road". That doesn't mean I love those songs. It means I think they answer the question. I know you may love "Irony x3" by Zigbones. But they ain't it.

Edit: I'm sorry for the poorly worded question. I think it's autism related, but I don't see possibilities or alternative understandings easily, and when I wrote "decade" I thought 10 years and that was it.

Of course anyone answering from the perspective of 2010-2020 was making a perfectly reasonable and rational answer and I was very dismissive. I'm really sorry for that.

As an avid Gorillaz listener, I don't think they have put out what we would define "a commercial hit" in the past decade, at least not at the same level of the singles from the first two albums.
That said, I love the collaborations they did with Thundercat and Stevie Nicks in the last record, it should deserve way more recognition than what it had

There aren't many popular songs now that are unique or distinguishable, Gorillaz still makes those unique memorable songs tho
