Surprised to see Billie Eilish cited. I think Billie is a deservedly hyped artist right now. ' Where We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?' isn't my thing, but 'Bad Guy' really is a great track. For me it's appeal largely hangs around a few very simple, well executed ideas (the excellent bass riff being the most important) meaning it does a lot with really very little. At the same time though it's just different enough to feel exciting and new. It reminds me of something like 'Blue Orchid' by The White Stripes, a song I love. They're both very minimal, have a strong memorable riff, a 'four on the floor' kick drum, no real chorus and are both a little weird and scary. I’m more of a traditionalist so her songs like Ocean Eyes appeal more, but I agree with the appeal of Bad Guy. Nothing much in music sounds ‘new’ but it’s minimalist sound does take you aback compared to a lot of chart music. I like her personality, she’s cool, a bit odd and off kilter. Her attitude and music definitely has given pop music a shot in the arm.

Well, Alright Now, Once and Black Star Dancing are definitely up there, but Sigrid's Sight of You absolutely blew my mind. In fact, her debut album, Sucker Punch, is a masterpiece. If you've never come across her, do check her out - she's as cheerful and uplifting as an artist can get, she's got a great voice and, obviously, fantastic songs as well.
