(SPOT.ph) You don't really know how long it's been since you last heard a song until it plays unexpectedly at a party or on the radio. That was the soundtrack to some of the best moments in your life, and you didn't even know they'd be your happiest days! Sure, we feel and hear our backs crack at having to acknowledge that these songs are 10 years old, but we won't say no to a dose of nostalgia. Here's to the greatest hits from a decade ago.

Here are 10 songs turning 10 in 2025:

“Uptown Funk” by Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars

Bruno Mars is still releasing hits today, but back in 2015, he was king of the airwaves with a track that would make you go "too hot, hot damn!" British record producer Mark Ronson made the right choice choosing Mars, because it's hard to imagine this funk-pop ditty sung by someone else. From the heavy bass intro and clapping to the snazzy guitars and lively drums, this song puts a swagger to your step with every trumpt riff. We should totally bring that energy back.

“See You Again” by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth

"See You Again" was commissioned to be part of the Furious 7 soundtrack as a tribute to Fast & Furious actor Paul Walker, who passed away earlier in 2013 in a single-vehicle crash. Wiz Khalifa's punchy raps catalog life's greatest moments and memories, interspliced with Charlie Puth's emotional vocals, resulting in a powerful track that both celebrates and mourns those who have passed on before us. The song's sentimental piano intro resurfaces in quiet moments--a few notes that remain just as potent today.

“Sugar” by Maroon 5

Imagine getting married and Maroon 5 crashes your wedding reception to treat your loved ones and closest friends to a free performance charged with extra sugar. Well, you might be of marrying age now but it'll be hard to pull off an Adam-Levine level of wedding band, that's for sure. Back when music videos were just as big as the track itself, "Sugar" with its Wedding Crashers-inspired storyline and addictive melody and lyrics was a certified chart-topper in bedrooms, cars, and Christmas parties.

“Sorry” by Justin Bieber

When we tell you this song was everywhere, we mean it. "Sorry" as a track had millions of streams, but its music video has a whopping 2.9 billion views in 2024. The vibrant, visual feast of a music video features choregraphy from legend Parris Goebel, featuring dancers from the ReQuest Dance Crew and The Royal Family dance crew like Kirsten Hodgen and Kaea and Ruth Pearce. It was the cool kid anthem of 2015, even when the lyrics' apologetic tone get lost in the upbeat melody and beats.

“Lean On” by Major Lazer and DJ Snake featuring MØ

The idea of a good time may change per decade, or even annually, but a classic party hit will always cement its place at the top no matter what. This electronic, moombahton track has an empty chorus with no lyrics, but it's that very same unmistakable few seconds that yields the best drunken dancing amongst the young, wild, and free. You might not have the stamina to party like you used to, but a little jig when this song comes on is still welcome, 10 years later.

“Love Me Like You Do” by Ellie Goulding

Remember when Fifty Shades of Grey was all the rage? Reviews for the book and movies might have been mixed, but there's no denying it gave birth to the best film soundtracks for the entire franchise. Electropop hit "Love Me Like You Do" accompanied the film during release but it went on to create its own legacy as a hit with its massive synths and crushing drums. And yes, we know you run to the nearest curtain to reenact the music video. No judgment.

“Watch Me” by Silento

TikTok dance trends are the phenomenon they are today because of the 2010s dance challenges. Today's short dances had to walk on the shoulders of giants, a.k.a the ancestors of the modern dance craze. This track by Silento had everyone pulling out the "Nae Nae" whenever the words "What me whip, now watch me nae nae" play out loud. Its contemporaries the "dougie," "stanky leg," and the "shuffle" defined the music era, and our list just wouldn't be complete without it.

“Fight Song” by Rachel Plattan

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Just take a cue from "Fight Song," a track that encourages listeners to persevere and keep fighting no matter how hard the journey gets. The song starts off small and escalates into a large, drum-heavy chorus that goes full force--which we're sure you sang out loud in your room during low points in your life. The past decade has been rough, but we know you still got a lot of fight left in you.

“Like I'm Gonna Lose You” by Meghan Trainor

Featuring guest vocals from John Legend, the moving anthem from Meghan Trainor was a certified earworm with its sincere lyrics and heartfelt delivery. Trainor actually released two hits in 2015, the other being "Lips Are Moving," but we had to give extra points to "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" for surviving the test of time and steadily garnering plays throughout the years, especially during karaoke sessions and year-end parties, often at the height of emotions.

“Blank Space” by Taylor Swift

While queen Taylor Swift technically released "Blank Space" in late 2014 as part of her 1989 album, it got the single treatment in early 2015 and went on to dominate the charts for that entire year, and even beyond. The first track on Swift's new album, the song was the jarring introduction to her shift in sound in 2014 coming from 2012's more carefree, colorful Red. Either way, this certified hit is a banger and its lyrics like "nightmare dressed like a daydream" and "chery lips, crystal skies" will forever reign supreme in the kingdom of Instagram captions.
